TyrsHTML posted:yea thats not right as it was used for starcraft. The creep was the zerg build area. Its undoubtly older than that. I would be pretty confident in saying that Zerg creep has nothing to do with creeps as in a couple of murlocs hanging around waiting to get killed. I mean it would be like saying "It was already possible to creep around or be a creepy guy before Starcraft".

I'm pretty sure creep as a term for neutral monster was invented as it is in WC3.

Just saw that Jon Shafer has been writing more novels about At the Gates, the latest one being an excerpt from a design document about game pacing. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jonshafer/jon-shafers-at-the-gates/posts It gives you an idea about the types of types of decisions the player is expected to make on a turn by turn basis. It has me pretty excited to see how the game ends up, I really like the general tone the game is taking. It's like a 4X survivalist game in the early game. The transient nature of your kingdoms sound really cool.

$10,000 of that came from 4 people. Which I guess is simultaneously reassuring and depressing? For some reason I'm having flashbacks to my very first exposure to anime ever. In college some friends took me to the anime showing, and I was like, 'Japanese cartoons? Okay, sounds interesting?'. The first showing of the evening was Ranma 1/2, who's a guy who turns into a woman whenever he gets splashed with water. I think I sat there the entire time making this face - I think the second showing was a Miyazaki film. Naussica, I think. Which, of course, is awesome. I left.... confused.

That's a tanuki beating a catfish with his enormous scrotum, yes. Legitimate historical ukiyo-e woodblock art.

Also, quickly checking the trending kickstarters... http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/345447740/silencer-hear-the-game-not-your-opponents What the gently caress is this? Can't you just get the same effect through a configuration screen or something? Nice to see the Asylum KS funded, though. I loved Scratches. Don't know about ROAM, though, it's a bit of an ambitious project for the 100k they got.

Looks like last call on the zombie game ROAM. There's threeish hours left and only 2k to go. It should be able to make the 100k stretch. I'm glad to see vehicles made it into the last video. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/roam/roam
