The Outpost

Posted by Malaika on Sept. 13, 2006, 10:35 p.m.

I have completed my text adventure game for Interactive Storytelling. It's not as good as I wanted it to be, but it's all I could manage in the three weeks we had to do it.

download The Outpost HERE

You will need the ADRIFT runner to play it. You can get that HERE

Okay, holidays coming up (ONE DAY TO GO!) so I'll jump into Danse Machina either tomorrow or saturday, and try to get the first level finished my sat night. Its much improved over the last version. I have completed many of the guns, a few of the first level enemies, and one of the portraits. I want to finish all of the portraits for the next demo, but it may not be possible. We'll see.

Sorry to hear Canadonian is going. I've never had any contact with him, but still… [:(]

I finished Oblivion again. To tell you the truth, I wasn't really that impressed with the storyline of that game. It was way too short, considering the breadth and scope of the game. Nice that you can continue playing afterwards though. I would have liked to see a few other quests that were important. Like MULTIPLE storylines in the game. Maybe I should start modding… Also, I'd like to see a pole-weapon mod for Oblivion. I miss my spears.

Titan Quest ROCKS. Just needed to say that again.

I also got a joystick, and have been playing X3. The storyline blows hard, but its nice that you can just go with one of the other characters and NOT go through the story. That game is also hell buggy, but worth playing.

I'll be lanning it up with my mates on BF2, DOW, NFS:MW and Silent Hunter 3 when I go home. Those games are all you need when you're lanning. Seriously sweet stuff. BF2 for the squad goodness, DOW cos its just the best multiplayer RTS ever made… ever, Silent Hunter 3 cos sometimes simulations are good (especially when you all wear pirate hats and say "argh!" a lot) and NFS:MW because… well, arcade racers never went out of fashion. And they're fun. And I want an Audi TT 3.2 …

Hmm… I started a new competition on www.gamemakergames.com . Its quite interesting. I wanted a game making comp that had a unique twist. So competitors must make a game, with no restrictions other than this one: You cannot use your hands. Pure brilliance.

I actually just wanted to make a game without using my hands anyway, and thought it'd be fun to make a comp out of it. Head on over there (Ideas section) if you want to join.

Coffee is good. Very very good. I got 2 hours of sleep last night, and coffee is the only thing keeping me alive at the moment. Although that's nothing new.

Anyhoo, class has started. Cerio!

no fingers either…

JW, I think you may need just the runner. If you open it in generator first it won't work cos it needs to be registered
