@Twon-ha A sort of lion, but I just noticed your zebra comment, no zebras in that game.

Mana

Mana

Mobile game for Windows Phone where you escape from a giant monster using a laser beam

here's a quick vid of the beginning

GnomeSlice contributed the music. and it is awesome music.

Wipqozn

@mana Good job.

Twon-ha

I like the sound the gun makes too.

Ronan Forman

23:09

@Mana Where can I get a copy of this game?

Mana

@RonanForman It's not on the app store yet.

Once the competition is done the team there is going to help us polish our app and get it on the store

we'll have to share some of the money with them which is too bad, but whatever

badp

I was going to bed and then Mana shows up

Ronan Forman

@Mana Which app store?

Mana

@RonanForman Windows Phone

Ronan Forman

Nevermind then.

Mana

23:15

It'll end up going on multiple platforms though, probably, or more than likely iOS or something

the demand is there apparently

badp

@Mana I've said this way too much in the last few days so it's kind of watering down

user15026

@Mana Still, that's kinda awesome. :D If it hits Android, I shall be all over it.

badp

but have some good, watered down luck with your app

and on that chat killer, I bid you a good metaphorically watered down night

James

Has anyone played Dishonored??? Is it worth investing in?

badp

@James totally serious review

Ronan Forman

23:19

Hi @James are you good to start uploading videos?

James

@RonanForman I do not think I am going to partake man but yeah I could upload

That whole session looking back over the videos though was just Meh

4-5 guys bumbling around going Oh Shit all the time .. ended up being comical not enjoyable.

@badp Always helpful, thanks man

Ronan Forman

@James Okay then, I'll just upload mine then.

Wipqozn

It's the crazy cat lady!

►

I like to imagine that's what you're like in RL @AnnaLear.

Anna Lear

@Wipqozn HOW DID THEY KNOW

James

... How can no one in here have played Dishonored :)

Twon-ha

23:27

@James I have. Go for it!

user15026

@Wipqozn O.o That's alarming.

user15026

I hope she is not a cat-thrower.

James

@Twon-ha Good game/story?? They would have to have fallen pretty far from Skyrim to really screw it up but ya never know :D

Twon-ha

I've just finished the first mission after a few hours, so I can't comment on the overall story yet, just that it seems like a good enough intro.

The gameplay and exploration are what make it though.

Anna Lear

Everything I know about pet care I learned from Raul's Wild Kingdom.

James

23:29

@Twon-ha Kewl, putting that down on the list of tobuyswhenIgetaroundtoit :))

user15026

@AnnaLear O.o

James

Anna Lear

@James Ooooold.

James

@AnnaLear So is the bible but people keep referencing it for some reason :P

Anna Lear

Touché.

user15026

23:31

@James You just made me laugh and then choke and now my throat hurts extra.

James

... Hey that was a pretty good come back :) I am pretty damn proud :)

@AshleyNunn Haha and aww all at the same time :)

user15026

@James grins S'okay, I have tea with honey, it will fix it.

Twon-ha

Alright, my hopes of finding the lion game are dashed, but I'm going to try and sleep anyway.

GnomeSlice

@Mana We what.

Also, by 'we' you mean 'you'.

HOLY SHIT

James

@AshleyNunn Nice :)

GnomeSlice

23:35

That's awesome.

Mana

@GnomeSlice no man, don't fucking put yourself down. You were an integral part of this.

James

Wish I wasnt allergic to honey :/

Mana

Your music is catchy as hell.

user15026

@James Yep. My mom stocked me up with cold fighting stuff today.

GnomeSlice

@Mana lol. okay.

user15026

23:35

@James :(

GnomeSlice

@Mana Didn't you just rip off the shit I made for Raven's game?

Mana

@GnomeSlice Sure? It was a good tune.

James

@AshleyNunn That was my drink of choice for years until I started reacting to it for no reason as far as I could tell.

Green tea + honey == awesome

GnomeSlice

@Mana Lol. Okay.

user15026

@James O.o that is unfun

GnomeSlice

23:36

What happens if you win?

user15026

@James Very true.

Mana

@GnomeSlice $25000 and a bunch of other awesome stuff.

GnomeSlice

@Mana That's pretty okay.

What are the other two games?

Mana

I don't know what their gameplay is like

user15026

@Mana O.o

user15026

23:37

Wow.

Mana

"Daylight Saving" and "Zombyte" are the names.

ours is titled "Devourer of Worlds"...I'm worried they have the better names and consequently the better chance of winning

GnomeSlice

@Mana That's a pretty pretentious name.

Is there a website for this shit somewhere?

Mana

greatcanadianappathon.com

GnomeSlice

@Mana 'Unistd'?

Mana

@GnomeSlice yeah...that's the other problem.

GnomeSlice

23:40

@Mana Wait, you're going to be on TV for this?

Mana

It's pronounced Unistandard.

I dunno if it'll be televised.

GnomeSlice

> PLUS all three finalists will get the chance to work with us and publish their apps!

SICK

@Mana Lol. Bad name.

Mana

@GnomeSlice yeah, we kinda thought it up last minute

after a C library name

whoooo

GnomeSlice

Fuck maybe I should take down the SGV soundtrack and re-put up the track as the soundtrack for your game instead.

@Mana Do you have a logo?

Mana

@GnomeSlice No

GnomeSlice

23:41

@Mana lol

Mana

@GnomeSlice where did you read this btw?

GnomeSlice

Well, I don't know enough about C libraries to design you one.

@Mana Sidebar on the website.

I think it's a facebook feed or something.

On the right.

@Mana have you noticed that the navigation dropdowns on the site behave hilariously

Mana

@GnomeSlice yeah. uh.

GnomeSlice

@Mana lolololol

Well, congratulations man.

Mana

@GnomeSlice hey, congratulations to you too.

GnomeSlice

23:45

@Mana Seriously, cut it out, I didn't do any work for this at all. You took something I'd already done.

So it wasn't even scored or anything.

user15026

gives congratulation cupcakes to @gnomeslice and @mana

Mana

@GnomeSlice Man, you don't get what I'm saying. You did good work. We used it. It helped us get where we are.

You are awesome.

accept that.

user2334

GRATS MAN

GnomeSlice

Mana

okay, I need to get back to work.

Thanks for all the support everybody!!

GnomeSlice

23:49

@Mana bluh bluh bluh

SaintWacko

...Oh, shit

Anyone remember that human caravan that got killed by a siege earlier?

They blame me

They're sieging my fortress

Q: Does Awareness (mastery) increase the XP gained from Sage (mastery)?

I would like to know if the mastery Awareness increases the exp bonus gained by the mastery Sage. Although the experience gained isn't exactly a game-changing difference, I'm still curious.

Q: How do we want other sites to handle migrartions to Arqade?

A game recommendation question was recently migrated from RPG.SE to Arqade, which was promptly closed and deleted since game-rec is off-topic. We've had situations like this before and the end result is normally that we pop on over to the migrating site and let them know the question is off-topic...
