Title: Help Crowdfund a game "The City" for March Post by: kiba on February 29, 2012, 11:12:04 PM A plead for some BTC in exchange for development of a game: http://kibabase.com/articles/help-crowdfund-a-game-the-city-for-march
Need the money to have a roof over my head, continue development, and stop my savings from bleeding to nothingness. Aiming for 300 dollars to continue development for the whole month of March. Hope to reach this goal by the end of March. You can follow my progress and ask development related question, report bugs, and ask gameplay questions there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=63537.0 Please ask questions about the future of the game, fundraising question, and so on here. Stay tune for screenshots, videologs, and so on. Title: Re: Help Crowdfund a game "The City" for March Post by: kiba on March 01, 2012, 10:54:17 PM Bumpy bump! Not even a single satoshi was donated?
Is my game not good enough to fund? Have I bored people? Do I seem suspicious? Title: Re: Help Crowdfund a game "The City" for March Post by: fornit on March 01, 2012, 11:05:09 PM i just dont believe there will every be a fun game coming out of this.

I am more interested in investigating the reasons behind why they decided it wasn't worth it.

That was in the work in the last couple of days, as I been listening to feedback for the past two months! However, the new stuff aren't yet deployed. 1) I added a help page. You can access it by pressing "h" while the menu is open in game mode. This explains what's going on in term of interface. 2) I added tooltip which allow you to identify what you're seeing by hovering over any tiles. You will be able to identify units soon too! I could construct a tutorial on how to play, but given a lack of gameplay features, I think it is too immature at this time. You wouldn't be able to do much anyway. Plus, I don't have a framework for tutoring just yet. They need a trigger and goal detection system first. Even more, a tutorial probably can't be perfected on the first try. It will probably be confusing and people will give up in frustration. That's why feedback is so important! If everybody is silent, nobody tells him why it is wrong. Whether or not you donate, speaks up! I like to know. |
