We have a winner!


Well results are in and it’s no surprise that Bimbo won, though it was touch and go for a while. And don’t worry I’m still going to carry on with the rest of the games; just I’m going to try and finish Bimbo first.

So I actually have a three point plan.

1)      Finish welding together the new code with the old so everything works.
2)      Add new text to the old stuff, plus a few tweaks here and there.
3)      Add new content and maybe even an end.

At the moment you can now meet with Mr Grey and travel to his office but no further, when I have enough done I’ll provide a new version.

And feeling thoughts needs and ant for the game don't hesitate to let me know.

Nandi are made out of rubber

There are some game creator who can meretriciously plan out every aspect of there game to the letter and know what to do and where they are. I'm not one of those people.

I bounce from project to project, picking thing up and down as inspiration takes me. To illustrate, and this a creative time for me, I'm bug fixing SUB Resort, putting the structure together for The Glasshouse, working out conversation trees and a rough plot breakdown for a secret project and a now and again putting together images for Tiresias. We're talking days or even hours here and there but hopefully they're eventually add up to something finished.

The flip side is that I can go months without creating anything, this normally is accompanied by feeling of guilt because people are patiently waiting for new content.

And the moral of this rambling is? Erm well that this blog will never be simply I've finished 20% of the NPC and 10% of the Plot. And just try to be patient and keep saying nice things about my work. It really does keep me going.

On other news I'm chuffed that every one of my little games is getting love, though I knew each has it's fans, and surprised just how many like Tiresias. Please keep voting and giving me feedback on what you like about the games, it helps me decide what to concentrate on when i don finally carry on working. Especially with Tiresias do people want a revamped version of the original or a complete ending as promised by the Cheerleader?

Poll Feedback

I should have probably done this when I posted up the poll, but it sorta slipped my mind. I'm curious why people have pick the game they have and what they like best about said game. So if you could please also comment below on why you choose one game over another.

Smashing the Glass Ceiling

Some of you might have remember a little game called The Glasshouse, well since then I've been trying on and off to complete the game. I've always known whats happening and how it should end.

Well one quite night at work and about four hour's work and I have the plan for a complete game, and yes it does have multiple ending.

So for once I can post a real game update, so far I have the basic layout of the first floor (Level 0) up and running and some of the NPC's in place. Talking of which here are a couple of them.



And just to prove I can work on multiple projects at a time here's a few more images for Tiresias

Comments mean content

Here's a secret if you want me to work on your favorite game, post a comment on it. Preferably with constructive comments, bug check favorite bites anything. If you remind me about the game then I might take another look at it.

Cause as I tend to bounce from project to project it might not be enough for new content, but maybe piece by piece I'll get near to finishing.

As proof here a couple of test images from Tiresias I was playing around with for either the modules or maybe a Redux of the original.

Short, sharp and... Sweet?

First off I know I've not actually got around to updating all the links, I'm sorry I'll try to get it done soon(ish).

I'm thinking of doing a couple of mini games, just to get the creative juices flowing. I'm open to suggestion or idea's but broad stokes please I don't want to get tied down to anything to solid.

And don't sweat it I'm going to get back to my other projects, no game or mine is ever abandoned...

Futher on down

It seems that Mulitupload has also gone the way of all the other downloders. I'll try to get everything to a new home, but that probably won't be until the weekend.

Randon Thoughts,part 1


A few random thoughts and idea’s today so I thought I’d bundle them all together.

Contested Idea
As promised I’m looking to enter the next contest. At the moment I’m in the most important phase, barnstorming. I’m gathering together idea and trying to see if I have enough to write the thing.

Current my idea, and this is pushing the theme a little, is that the player has entered (with or without their permission) a contest for a massive reward. All they need to do is reach a point in a contained area, possibly an apartment block, without being transformed. The working title is The Game, and despite the obvious initials I’m thinking to keep to a Bimbofication theme.
 
Tiffies
As you may be aware Babblingfaces has done an excellent job on putting together and (hopefully) annual award, something I could get done, though I’m not bitter. I’m planning to try and do my voting this weekend, and no I’m not going to tell you what I choose (mostly because I haven’t decided yet).

The Doll and How to get Promoted, are both eligible for the votes, and whilst I’d never try to sway your opinion, if you did enjoy these games please consider them for the vote. And for balance and fairness there are a lot of other good games up for consideration.

Beta Bonus
With the contest game, if it gets written and with any game for a while I’m thinking of only offering Betas through this blog. This is as a bonus, and incentive, to keep people following me. I’m probably going to follow a convoluted route of announcing here but asking for people to apply through TFGames, mostly so I can prove who asking and everything is legit.

Back in Business
All this thinking about betas is because hopeful for the next couple of week I going to be able to do some more work on my games. The plan is to start with How to get Promoted, but if things go really well I might get some work done on other things. I’m not sure yet if I’m going to work one career at the time, a sideways builds if you will. The other option is to build all the occupations and work across.

I’m planning to try and keep you updated on some of this, but it may be a little patchy. My thinking on this is that it’s better to work on the game itself rather than spend time telling people what I’ve done.

Down, down, downloaders

Unless you've spent the last week or so living in a cave you might be aware of that Megauploads been shut down. This has caused a lot of the other sharing sites; mainly it seems the ones who offered rewards schemes, to stop other people downloading other peoples stuff. The whole thing is in a bit of a free-fall and hasn’t settled down yet.

Well that sucks!

As I'm currently using Multi, which put copies on several of the site it seems to be okay. About half the sites won't work, but that at least leaves half.

If it gets any worse I may have to look at other options, as we all may have to, to be honest I've been meaning to put most of these on the website anyhow.

And if possible try to keep the chatter about the games, not the state of the net; there seem to be enough forums for that kind of chatter. Ta
