The updates for DoodleGods have been cutely amusing fun. latest one was a kind of RPG theme pack, with wizards and dragons and raiding parties saving a princess and whatnot.

u kno what's even more fun mauling someone with a 100+ pt lead after being like 100 pts behind the first few turns.

JUST SAYIN.
Also just picked up some apparently highly acclaimed 16-bit throwback RPG called Zenonia for $0.99 (on sale til Monday!), have not tried it yet.
Someone plz notify me immediately if Game Dev Story drops below $4.
― Stevie D(eux), Sunday, 28 November 2010 05:47 (thirteen years ago) link
Got Zenonia last week when it was free but also haven't played it yet.
If you get the Bargain Bin app you can set notifications for when apps fall below a price of your choosing.
― groovypanda, Sunday, 28 November 2010 09:38 (thirteen years ago) link
on sale for less than four bucks!

Ok, someone plz notify me if Game Dev Story drops below $3.99 sigh
― Stevie D(eux), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:27 (thirteen years ago) link
seriously just pull the trigger already, $4 is a small price to pay for something which will have you ignoring everything except breathing in order to focus on it

Totes. Its ridic addictive, and I cant even figure out why! Its like watching soaps. "just one more game then I'll go to bedahhhshit its 3am"
― Frank Lloyd Webber (Trayce), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:36 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah I already did that with Peggle. Once drank a ton of Four Loko and sat in my friend's basement until 7am. Also am only a bit into Assassin's Creed: Altair's Whatever, and I haven't even started Zenanana yet, so it's more like a "hey if it's cheap I'll pick it up so I can play it in a few weeks or whatever" thing.
Also am I the only one that just simply does not like Angry Birds?
― Stevie D(eux), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:42 (thirteen years ago) link
I bought Angry Birds for some reason and regretted it immediately. So joyless.
― macaroni rascal (polyphonic), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:47 (thirteen years ago) link
It feels like every shot is a crapshoot and I'm sure that, you know, you get better at aiming over time or whatever but this game gives me no incentive to continue playing it for that fucking long.
― Stevie D(eux), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:51 (thirteen years ago) link
isn't it? i don't know any actual gamers that like it; even casual gamers seem kinda meh on it. It's game for non-gamers.
― old LOKO heads (forksclovetofu), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:52 (thirteen years ago) link
Angry Birds takes a bit of time to get into, but once you're hooked you can't put down the bloody thing.
I never understood people's hesitation to buy a $1-2 iPhone app. I wait for sales too, of course, but $1.19 is so ridiculously cheap in software terms that you're bound to be up on the deal, even if you only spend 10 minutes using it.
― Interests: eating my cookie (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:54 (thirteen years ago) link
xp I am the gamer who likes Angry Birds, then.
― Interests: eating my cookie (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:55 (thirteen years ago) link
Also got my eye on Chaos Rings except not for $13
― Stevie D(eux), Sunday, 28 November 2010 22:58 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, me too. I can't justify that much for an iphone RPG, despite it being excellent value in relative terms.

I must say, Angry Birds is the sort of game you play out of compulsion, not necessarily for enjoyment.
― Interests: eating my cookie (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 28 November 2010 23:18 (thirteen years ago) link
yes. i played it a lot for little enjoyment. otoh i have some gamer friends who loooooove it.

do not not not understand the appeal of angry birds
― .\ /. (dayo), Monday, 29 November 2010 00:08 (thirteen years ago) link
I must be the rare joyless squab that enjoys angry birds and cut the rope more than 9 innings and game dev (which is the most rote management game i've ever played fwiw).

for some reason I have been playing world war. it is how I imagine farmville or some horrible game where there is no actual "game" just like a skinner box to click a button every few hours.
― cha-cha cheating (bnw), Monday, 29 November 2010 00:54 (thirteen years ago) link
Think it's a bit harsh to condemn Angry Birds for being joyless yet compulsive, there are plenty of non-casual games which share that trait yet are perfectly well respected. I mean, "I hate playing it but can't stop" is the general consensus on Trials HD, right? But nobody claims that's only for non-gamers. Angry Birds is just the same as that, imo.
― JimD, Monday, 29 November 2010 09:03 (thirteen years ago) link
cut the rope is terrific and also incredibly incredibly frustrating.
― wheezy f baby (a hoy hoy), Monday, 29 November 2010 10:46 (thirteen years ago) link
It's terrific up to the parts where things are too close together to be able to reliably tap the right one, and the frustration is at the controls rather than your own inability to figure out/pull off a solution.

― .\ /. (dayo), Monday, 29 November 2010 10:54 (thirteen years ago) link
With a cancelled flight from London yesterday, and a 6 hour train journey instead, I treated myself to Game Dev Story. Played it solidly. It may just be Rock Start Ate My Hamster with computer games, but it's soooo good. Seriously, just drop the $4!
― CraigG, Monday, 29 November 2010 15:00 (thirteen years ago) link
21 years and I got a 40 pt game that won the grand prize. may continue on until my company runs the globe.

I have been enjoying fragger lately, but am so stuck on level22 of atlantis, it's probably something simple like every other time i've been stumped....
― problem chimp (Porkpie), Monday, 29 November 2010 18:52 (thirteen years ago) link
Fuck me if I didn't just go back and do it first time, ridiculous.

I like fragger too. Working my way through the Arctic storm level now.

I'm worried it's going to turn out to be less fun that epic citadel was.
― JimD, Tuesday, 30 November 2010 10:51 (thirteen years ago) link
I'll be waiting for some reviews before buying that's for sure.

Oh dear. Imagine if it turns out to be complete shit. Just imagine.
