Mr Underhill posted:BTW Sumer is made by Goons if I'm not mistaken, has a real nice concept and appropriate art, and is at 89% funded with 2 days and change to go, I think they're worth supporting. And, not that it would make a difference (to me, anyway) but it's not pixel art. Looks like...a M.U.L.E. clone that might not suck? Is that too much to hope for?

We did do a ton of feedback hunting in other places, though--one big thing I learned is that the KS staff are actually pretty amazing at giving you advice if you're willing to reach out to them/listen to what they say. Congrats on getting your game funded by the way

M.U.L.E.'s marketplace mechanic in specific was pretty directly responsible for our real time auction. I just really want M.U.L.E.-likes to become a thing--it's crazy that nobody else has really tried to follow in its footsteps in the 33ish years or so since it came out. multijoe posted:Congrats on getting your game funded by the way Thanks!

There's been several small-developer attempts but they've all missed the charm and simplicity or simply priced themselves far too high for a niche title. Subtrade in the 90's. Space Horse seems to have completely vanished from the internet, which is probably for the best. Planet M.U.L.E. is still going along weakly (but with a M.U.L.E. boardgame in the works). Good luck on replicating the most important part of making a M.U.L.E. game work it's the title song

you really shouldn't do video of an fps with a gamepad if it's an fps that can be played on the pc.

It sort of shows how much average FPS mechanics have changed due to the gamepad. You could play a fast 360 degrees awareness game like Doom, but you'd be working a lot harder for the same results as a middling m+kb player.

What does people being bad at Doom have to do with Dyack/KS? Dyack's had a chip on his shoulder about the games press for years now so his appeal to GG isn't purely cynical, he's genuinely in on all that poo poo. Will it matter?

What're people's thoughts on Saurian, the  DINOSAUR SURVIVAL SIMULATOR ? The idea seems wildly fun and I think the models look pretty dang good but even with the obvious attention to detail, the environments feel a bit....bare bones from the trailer. Hopefully if it's fully funded that could improve quite a bit?https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1379624404/saurian-an-open-world-dinosaur-survival-experience?ref=project_tumblr LemonLimeTime fucked around with this message at 11:50 on May 25, 2016 |

I was browsing games kickstarters and ran across Feudums which probably has the worst effort:success ratio I've ever seen in a videogame kickstarter. I guess people who are already playing mobile 4Xs are committed to their drug of choice while people who aren't don't want to touch the genre with a 10 foot pole. Also not really the sort of thing gaming news sites would cover. Have their been any big F2P kickstarter success stories?PaletteSwappedNinja posted:What does people being bad at Doom have to do with Dyack/KS? If Gamergate ends up getting us a new Eternal Darkness that would be alright. That said, on the remote chance this game ever gets made I have a hard time imagining what convincing sanity effects would look like at this point.

The potential is there. This looks like the most interesting game ever set in South Dakota, and all they had to do was go back 66 million years in time. The tiers with the Dakotaraptor claw replica got slammed pretty hard, that's really cool. I'm in for the basic pack with the game.

The stupidest part is that they (Deep Silver or Comcept, I don't remember who) already put out a trailer with an obnoxious "ironic" voiceover and got dumped on for it but they decided the best option was to double down? Why? They must understand people are looking for excuses to tear them apart, so why give them anything to work with?

I watched that trailer without sound but I really don't know why they keep doing close up zooms of the models. They're inoffensive as long as they're kept at the size/distance of the actual gameplay.
