I believe it's been about 2 weeks since my last post. In that time, the game has gone through 2 further revisions, and we've been able to play one more test. More about that below. 1. Lore The lore of the game has been more or less finalized. We know who all the Heroes are, why they are each fighting, and what the purpose of the war is ...

Like everything, it's subject to change. But this will be the placeholder for now. Action Points were changed to Mana, which is a good change, because Action Points sounded really dumb. * The Game An example card Mana is a game with drinking, for 2-6 players. After struggling between a "Drinking Game" and a "Game with ...

I think I started thinking "I should make a game" in mid-September, 2012 and had a working prototype by mid-October. Little by little things are getting better, but there's still a ways to go. * Textbook CecilSunkure recommended "Rules of Play" http://www...

For more history, check my past three Blogs. Have you ever tried something new and it comes to you pretty easily for the first ~75%? And despite knowing that it won't be this easy to complete, you become a little bit optimistic. That's where I was after my last Blog. But once you get to this point, you start to l...

See my past blogs on this subject: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=397214 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=397947 I'll give you a brief update on my progress.

On Friday, my friends sat down to play it. This was intended to be the final internal test before I released the game to some people on TL for alpha testing. Unfortunately, as the game gets more complete, we start finding more flaws. I will try to explain basically how the game works. It ...

It's been a long time since I posted a Blog. I'll start this with a story! (If you'd like to offer advice on hiring freelancers, please scroll down to the numbered list below.) Last September, I was sitting in a cabin in Kicking Horse with some friends. We were up there for a wedding. It was mid-afternoon and we were sitting around bored. Having exhausted all the card and board g...

A week and a half ago I open my TL Inbox to see the following unassuming message: After some back and forth, we agreed that we would play and I hosted the game. It was on! We both played random, I spawned 6 o'clock, he was 12. Turns out Sheth didn't think this was very important as he paused and went AFK during the early ga...

Given the way my career is going, as with a lot of engineers, I doubt I'll ever really use it. I remember when I was a kid, playing around in my dad's desk d...

I watch more than I play and I don't really feel a connection to them... However, there is one game that just does it for me. It's like a match made in heaven. That game is Street Fighter 3: Third Strike. I play Ryu, Gouki, Hugo, Q and a little Dudley. The purpose of this thread is two-fold: 1. I have one friend who plays with me on GGPO o...

We got close but I didn't know if she liked me. I kissed her. She liked me. Now we're dating. Stop making girl blogs.

In order to meet their needs, I have rerecorded the TSL commentary being careful to remain neutral. Edit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gDGf1G6mxQ Thanks to SarcasticOne for mixing them together!

Really bad. I've tried to get this food at Korean restaurants in Calgary, but it's just not the same. You can see it's close, but not close enough. And it's expensive.

Well, not so much lately, it's been about a year, but it's gotten worse lately. It's something in the power system, be it a bad connection draining the battery, shoddy alternator, or the battery itself being dead. So coming back from Korea, as expected, I find the battery is dead [Bad luck bu...

I'll tell you where you might be. You might be in the game that you lose 100 points in. Up until now, you've simply sat in the shadows watching others play out their games. But what do observers see when they look into the replays? Now I see you as a strange mix of someone angry, yet apathetic. But mostly just pathetic. So are...

I'm pretty sure it's going to be HK since I don't have to wait for a Visa bogging me down. Is this a good idea? Are there better places around Korea that I should visit instead? Anyone who's been there, please offer advice to a total newb. Specifically: - Where should I stay? - What are some things to do that migh...

What the fuck, nature? To be clear, I like snow. I like winter. But enough is enough. Last year it was "cold" (consistantly below zero) from November 1st to mid May. One of those months was -40 consistantly. That's too much. I can't take it. Calgary is pretty far... Mon, 05 Oct 2009 02:07:49 +0900 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=103096
