You don't have to. But you do have to get down.


Is it true that if you say "lady in red" into a mirror 3 times then Chris de Burgh appears behind you and grants you 2 wishes?

The first hour and a half was great!  ;D I did start to think you were a being a bit fast and loose with what 8 - 9 CET meant!!!

Good to catch (some of) the live show this time though. 

Oh and sorry for being confusing at one point - when I said "It's under Pangolin games" in the chat I was just trying to help because you were on the forum looking for Jub's LIFE game and couldn't see it

LIFE / Re: LIFE Epsilon - RELEASE!

Ok, it turns out I am dreadful at text based RPG's like this (I think the last one I got anywhere in was a spoof LOTR one on the BBC Micro! ). I have yet to solve the first puzzle, but I have explored as many of the first station's rooms as I am able, and have completed the tutorial.


Some inital thoughts:


  • I like the genral theme / setting of this, it's nice to explore and interact with the Doctor Who universe. I also much prefer more of a straight forward scifi setting like this as opposed to Moffat's recent over the top and silly plotlines, for example
  • The pixel art style works well
  • The music is really nice and sets the tone however...
  • None of the options allow for toggling sounds / music on or off
  • Feature request from someone used to using CL commands - I keep trying to press the up arrow to get the last command back. Not sure if that's a normal thing in games like this, though
  • Writing is clear and sometimes pretty funny. The text you get when you try to take the dorm pillow made me laugh

I think the initial name for the Clington-Buschs was Tywester, or Stanniston, something like that. XD 
Nice. Mind if I pinch this?


Thanks again everyone for your great feedback  8)


So I have been ruminating on this over the last couple of days and have distilled down to this shortlist:

There are a couple that I think will do better as main story characters you have to deal with, rather than playable houses:


  • The Black Knight. (Known from various things, in this case I'm primarily thinking monty python)
  • The Sid. (El Cid)


    Thoughts?
    Another thing/concern I have is that I don't want to infringe on copyright or anything like that...
