Typing in noose didn't give me a rope with a loop, instead it gave me full gallows. Iron Maiden? A little deathbox popped up on screen. Gun: check. Poison: check. Guillotine: check.
Holy shit.
So fucking sold.
Note the little Gordon Freeman glasses when the guy types "Crowbar".
I just want to know the extent of animals I can summon. Or dinosaurs.
According to the designers? Every animal and dinosaur you can name.
That is ridiculous. This game just moved to number one on my want list.
Pretty much they've had the engine done for like a year already or something, and have spent that time going through dictionaries and encyclopedias adding every non-trademarked/vulgar thing therein.
And they interact via traits, so, if you if you summon a raptor, you also get meat, a stick, and string, hang the meat from the stick with the string, and ride the raptor around.
I believe that was in one of the early videos near the beginning of the thread. I can't wait to see what they've come up with since then.
I wonder how detailed an item has to be before it registers. Like, I can imagine someone with terrible art skills having a hard time with complicated drawings.
On the other hand, I guess they could just draw something simple to solve the problem.

Nonono, you don't draw the item, you just write the word.
Holy crap, these people have earned my business. The crowbar absolutely shocked me. I'm stoked as hell to see what other kinds of humorous references they'll include.

what is wrong with your people?
it's irking me that you're pidgeonholing it into "humorous refernces" when this game is all about anything being possible. It's not a humorous reference because they purposely put a crowbar in the game; it's a humorous reference because YOU conjured up a crowbar and a HEV suit look alike to make your own reference.
and that's why i think this game is freaking awesome. all about making your own thing.
... unless i'm wrong about this crowbar that's unique in that it's a HL2 crowbar. But I'm sure red/gray crowbars are pretty standard.

someone said something about getting glasses that look like Freeman's. I haven't seen the video yet, though.
e: Yeah, you get glasses
I think you're taking it a little more personally than necessary. I didn't see kotaku type 'HEV suit' or 'glasses.' All I saw was 'crowbar.' This just made me assume that the extra stuff is 'included' when you type crowbar.
I apologize if I offended your sensibilities, but I thought the programmers just had a really cool sense of humor, and that's what I was saying. If I was wrong, that doesn't really change the fact that the game still looks awesome, or that some people are more easily entertained than you are.
Even though there will probably be "Cheat words" discovered in no time, this is worth it just for fucking around with the engine and all the stuff in it.
If you write the name of the game, I think it should instantly reset to the title screen.
as a punishment for being a smartass.
in all seriousness, this is the only DS game I'm actually excited about at the moment. Even if it presents no challenge whatsoever, just mucking about with the engine should be worth the price of admission.
man guitar and glasses. i love how this game makes a humorous reference to wheezer
glasses and suit. oh shit they make references to the new price is right
crowbar, hard hat, toolbox, overalls. hahahahahahaha they even programed in bob the builder!
no, you're making the references; not the game
i'm trying to say it was probably kotaku who made the reference by making the character have the items to look like freeman. not the game.
note to self: put on a sword and trenchcoat and 50 belts before writing in meteor
Yeah you look exactly like Gordon Freeman when you summon a crowbar. Costume change is included. Check out the vids linked earlier in the thread.
o_O
That's an assumption. The video cut around a lot, it wasn't clear that a crowbar makes you look like Freeman. In fact I'd assume it doesn't, because of the fact that the game is so customizable; they wouldn't force any outfits on you that you didn't ask for yourself. I have a feeling the guy in that video dressed up like that on purpose.
Like if I write "Bass" do I get a fish or a guitar? If I write "conductor" do I get I get something electricity can pass through or a man waving a baton? Though I guess in that 2nd example both meanings would be fulfilled, hehe.
Ideally? They would use context-sensitivity to give you the alternative with maximum humor value and minimum effect on the current puzzle.
Or the other way. :-P

Typing in noose didn't give me a rope with a loop, instead it gave me full gallows. Iron Maiden? A little deathbox popped up on screen. Gun: check. Poison: check. Guillotine: check. Wolverine: check, though prodding the little creature didn't make it go berserk. Pillory? Finally stumped.
Its a platformer in which you write words to get objects to help you complete an area. The videos should clear up some things.
Is it really a platformer? Is there a jump button? Are their long levels with mutliple scenerios? What is the level structure like? I'm not being a smart-ass. I'm really inquiring.
This is the best idea ever. Do we have a release date yet? Does it even have a publisher, yet?

You should watch videos and read about it if you're so interested! IGN has done a few interviews and writeups and early videos show what the whole game is about.

I had read a bit about it, but every article seems to only talk about the endless possibilities, and not really how the game plays out.

I've seen that video, but it still doesn't tell me much about how the game progresses. Is there anything you can do other than conjure up items and drag and drop? Not that it matters, really. Day one purchase.

No pillory? Fuck that shit.
Maybe it'll be DLC.

If they have uranium, I am going to make a nuke.
Volcano + Meteor = ?
Pot + Water

Wood + Fire

A FISH-GUITAR.
The former seems more feasible since the latter would require so much many animations. So many.
