Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    Anyways, Cravipat. The Unhorse is brilliant. I'm well impressed by your musical compositions as well, are you making them from scratch?

    The Lost record was created from sheet music. After that I discovered it was much easier to find a midi version of the song, load it in an editor and transcribe it from there. There are occasional issues with the range of notes, since music maker is so limited, but it works fairly well.
    In Shark Vs Dino I had the screen freeze on an impact as I was running out of AI to deal with some kind of shark rebound animation. I'm happy enough with it as is. I've done my doodled dino and submitted my entry.

    It's too late now but one solution to free up some AI may have been to use multiple sharks that each followed a single route instead of one shark that knew how to perform all the different routes. Pick one shark at random at the start of the game.

    True, and something I had considered but sacrificed in the name of getting the thing finished and entered (a) in time and (b) while my interest still lasted.

    So is there a contest for this? Cause I have some pretty awesome (IMHO) games I'd like to show off....

    I've got a ghost busting game, a football game, a drag racing game, and I'm working on a road racing game with randomized tracks. Each game has its own unique details I'm pretty proud of (ie the drag racing game the tach and the speedo actually work...)

    I was referring to the regular theme contests on the game's wi-fi. No prizes beyond the glory, but everyone wins when you get a massive new game set to play.

    Put your code up and show us your goods!

    There is a basic walk animation going on but it doesn't seem to have been picked up well by the camera.

    I finally broke down and made videos for all my games and records. The quality isn't the best but I didn't feel like doing through the tedious process of transferring everything over to Showcase on the Wii. The full playlist is here: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=4C49854B095F6072

    So I've been messing around with this for a few days. Made three mini-games which took a while, also remade "Star of Darkness" from Secret of Mana to the best of my ability.

    I'll put them online and look for my friend code, if anyone wants them.

    Thread bump, but here's some pretty cool minigames involving Dr. Wily.

    If you're not interested in the DIY aspect, is this game effectively Warioware Touched 2? I am happy having more of the same if it is setup like the previous games.

    Not really, unfortunately. It makes you do a lot of creation and lengthy tutorial and it's nowhere near as passive as the other games. If you're looking for more Wario Ware there's one on the DSiWare store, though, which I plan on getting next month when the 3DS gets its update.

    EDIT: That said, I'm sure you can download a bunch of cool games after doing a minimal amount of work and it's not like it isn't fun. It's just a ton of text and learning, which is weirdly opposite to a WW game.

    I think I will give it a miss then :( Thanks.
