Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Awesome news: Phenomenally Powerful Princess Pink has been funded!
Vote on Greenlight!
The kickstarter is super close to unlocking it's next stretch goal: 2 more cool dlc skins! It only has 9 more hours to go, though. I hope it makes it!
Vote on Greenlight!
Phenomenally powerful princess Pink, or just "Pink" for short, is our hero. She can shoot down enemies from a distance, kick them when they are too close and dance to unleash a powerful attack! And as if all of this weren't enough, she can upgrade her powers too! To recharge her powers she eats lollipops!
Nobody knows from where the scary stinking slimy slugs come. But they are coming to destroy and they must be stopped.
Additional gameplay elements
Making a fully fledged game means adding more gameplay elements; below you can see what I'd like to add (there can be some changes as the development goes on):
If you get too close to the stinky slugs you become stinky and fill your stinky gauge. When it's full you get a random debuff!
The debuffs can be light or more severe, temporary or permanent: reduced armor, visibility or speed; inability to shoot, kick, dance or even move!
Multiple lollipops type with different effects!
With each passing level, the slime of the slugs will evolve and acquire new dangerous properties, thus making the slugs even more scary!
user-selectable difficulty at least one unlockable skin ("Casual princess", obviously for casual gamers)
DRM? Pay2win? Paid DLC? Always-online requirement?
These buzzwords have recently become the bane of modern gaming. But there is no place for them on my game! It will follow the "good old" tradition of being able to be run forever and without gameplay advantages. There will be DLC and expansions that will be forever be free to all users. For funding these I might sell cosmetic DLC.
Who am I?
I'm a member of the community of the open source 3d game engine JMonkeyEngine. Besides contributing, I developed a game of my own.
What is the plan?
The game will be released DRM-free for Windows, Linux (if stretch goal is reached) and Mac (if stretch goal is reached).
I'd like to expand the game in a episodic way. Each new episode will expand the story and add new features and gameplay elements. The funding goal of the kickstarter covers the development of the second episode and will bring improvements to the first episode.
The rewards
Backers at the "pinkschool student" and above will get a steam key if greenlit (in addition to the DRM-free copy). Steam cards with cool CG graphics will be added and steam integration will probably be added.

i don't think those things are necessarily terrible to have in the game, the problem is that the skate game i played (skate 2?) just threw all that shit at me from the start
like, all i want is to skate around, maybe have some objectives and unlock videos of dumb ppl hitting their balls against rails or something, but that's it
get me there, then we can talk about contracts and videos and cutscenes
I'd also be interested if any NZ gaffer could gift it to me. PM please.

lol you fell for it. He's obviously posting buzzfeed and other similarly stupid "hey, can you relate to xy!?!?"-lists to throw peeps off.
Only interested in Tier 2+3. Eh, BTA is high though. Forced pass.

Got a copy of the hot Jordan edition, now I have the special tennis shoes. Shouldn't have bought the regular version via nuuvem but such is life.
Will people eventually break the stats with cheat engine or something? I want the ultimate myplayer.

Morningbus is going full lashman.
While there's no hard and fast rules on pricing for Early Access games, pretty much every one is cheaper the earlier into the process you buy in. Not more expensive at beta and cheaper at release.
They list specifics for March launch content, they don't list specifics for post-launch content. That's the aspect that's vague like a season pass. They're clear on what you pay 35$ for, they are not clear on what you pay the remaining 30$ for. This is worse than a season pass because we're talking about the base game.
The level of polish doesn't change what it is. It's early access, the game is unfinished, even if the level content they release is "polished". Players will be interacting, indirectly, with the dev team through forums and community managers to provide feedback to shape the existing and future content. It's early access.
I don't understand why you would so willingly drink the Kool-aid or want to defend them. I can't even remotely understand why. They're the ones with everything to prove after Absolution.
And the reason are going this route isn't community engagement to make a "real" Hitman. Square-Enix likely can't afford to bank roll a traditional 50-60 million dollar game which is why we have triple A early access Hitman, along with a f2p multiplayer game instead of Sleeping Dogs 2 and Tomb Raider being an Xbox One timed exclusive.

what the fuck is going on here
feels good, doesn't it
and then the game you didn't buy during Autumn sale, never appears on Winter sale and you regret it for years.

i'd argue that every thread needs to be nuked and we just have one thread that's exclusively about discussing the similarities and differences regarding Mortal Kombat 1's ports.
? What? Did you actually read the chart or? The specifics are there and are both the same for March content and the rest of the content.

Hey, so these threads were fun, for a while, but now this is going to get nuked from high orbit.

no it isn't
I'm not sure that will be enough, we might be able to save the moon, but Earth is lost.
edited: almost bought Undertale, then I remembered that won't get to play it this year and was saved.
i saw duckroll posted in here yesterday, i'm pretty sure the mods are onto us
we're fucked
If you need help getting a copy from New Zealand. Go ask these nice folks.
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/nz
I just got 2 copies from 2 nice gents.
Edit: Obviously don't pick someone with a low rank on their profile. Pick someone that looks trustworthy.

What kind of weird specifics are you looking for exactly? And yeah, sure, kool-aid, top notch argument there pal. Not that I expected you to have much of one, but yeah.

NBA Street was the last great basketball game.
The only sport of worth is icehockey. *gets stabbed by HSV fans*

Tempted to get the GTA complete pack off humble bundle. $10 for every single GTA game minus GTAV is pretty much the best deal ever, no?
https://www.humblebundle.com/store/p/grandtheftauto_completepack_storefront
Also Bully for $3.50. Never played that game. Wondering if it still holds up.

So glad I was able to get my Dino Crisis folder from my dying HDD. Was the most important thing on that HDD.

Do what I do with every sports game: enjoy the physics and flop/slidetackle your way into the opposing team. Hilarious.
Milamber. Did he never mention he was a Dark Souls boss?
