Interesting, like Fantastic Contraption (some of the graphics are the same so maybe it's be the same people?) crossed with QWOP.

is the Dikembe game no longer available, or is my computer just being an asshole.

also if people want to rep for stuff in here before i make my coint and plick ballot, i will try to give stuff a shot

facile cliff (jjjusten), Thursday, 3 January 2013 17:21 (thirteen years ago)

i second that, would love some last minute CP12 links in here. i am only now trying frog fractions for the first time in what feels like a very, very shallow pool this year -- it will prob make my ballot on account of that

give fallen london a try

Mordy, Thursday, 3 January 2013 19:02 (thirteen years ago)

ok fallen london is pretty damn cool

facile cliff (jjjusten), Thursday, 3 January 2013 20:07 (thirteen years ago)

waiting for actions to refresh is super annoying though, am i missing something

facile cliff (jjjusten), Thursday, 3 January 2013 20:26 (thirteen years ago)

It's better than it used to be but it is incredibly annoying, yes. You have to get used to the whole 'play for five minutes, wait for five hours' thing; a lot of free games do this now and it makes me want to kill. Does FL really count as a game of this year, though?

Also, allow me to say FROG FRACTIONS just one more time.

emil.y, Thursday, 3 January 2013 21:24 (thirteen years ago)

I think FL has been updated enough (including the new name and stuff) that it should count as this year... and it's definitely the kind of game you periodically check into instead of play in big chunks of time.

Mordy, Thursday, 3 January 2013 21:51 (thirteen years ago)

Story Nexus might be the exact 2012 release... Tom Chick included FL on his list of best games here.

Mordy, Thursday, 3 January 2013 21:52 (thirteen years ago)

the waiting killed FL for me pretty quickly, it seems more than a lot of these games to call for an immersive experience but never gives you time to get immersed, much less so than something like Kingdom of Loathing.

having said that, i'm curious to revisit because Tom Chick's review makes it sound a lot stronger than it was when it started.

soma dude (Noodle Vague), Friday, 4 January 2013 09:57 (thirteen years ago)

Mordy (or anyone else), have you tried any of the other games on StoryNexus now they've opened it up for public development?

emil.y, Friday, 4 January 2013 15:03 (thirteen years ago)

xp turns a webpage into a Marble Madness type game. Also if you have a phone that uses the Chrome browser, the phone can be used as a motion controller.

Half of these sound like rappers. (snoball), Thursday, 21 March 2013 21:30 (thirteen years ago)

!!!!

it's been over a month since i mentioned this, so i feel obligated to say that i am perhaps the best Marble Madness player of all time, at least on NES. i gotta check this out.

( ( ( ( ( ( ( (Z S), Thursday, 21 March 2013 21:30 (thirteen years ago)

"turns a webpage into something that makes Chrome use all your CPU and doesn't do anything" is a more accurate summary of my experience so far, but it sounds p. cool

(my laptop is pretty underpowered for gaming, but more so than a phone? I hope not)

susuwatari teenage riot (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 21 March 2013 21:46 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah, the page doesn't do anything at all for me. Just shows a few loading bars at the bottom.

xp the phone is just used a controller for the game running on a PC/Mac, there's some weird pairing procedure to get them working together with the game. Although a mobile isn't actually required. However a fairly speedy computer is necessary (how fast? faster than mine apparently).

oh i see. that's clever if... probably not the future of gaming

(NB never pay any attention to what I think is the future of gaming. I've been waiting for this 3D fad to die out since Descent came out... any time now...)

susuwatari teenage riot (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 21 March 2013 22:11 (thirteen years ago)

uh, i don't know if you ya'll have tried this yet, but this is pretty amazing

i mean, forget the game itself. it's just an amazing concept.

looks interesting, will check it out when i get home. the lack of porn and death may be a turnoff.

it were alright, brief enough to play thru anyway. not crazy about the writing and the puzzles were way too easy.
