if you're as entertained as I am by giving profane, offensive, obscene or ridiculous titles to mundane objects, it's a godsend. this is basically a little bit of game holding a mechanic together which allows me to make myself laugh with my tourettey jokes- without alienating my loved ones by telling them something objectively unfunny that i can't get out from laughter
Yes - this thing functions as like a surrogate girlfriend to me, in that it provides a means for me to make unacceptably shit, offensive jokes without needing to have a "woman" there that I'm all "in a comfort zone" with to the point where I have "no filter".
I paid $800k getting a renowned children's artist in to devise an art style for my romance simulator. I then titled it "Shrub Rapist". It shifted 4.9 million units. This game is Japanese, right?
The 14 character limit is kind of a drag though, if there was a bigger limit you could get cracking mileage out of making up lots of pretentious modern game names with colons in them, instead of not even being able to fit the "2" in when you make a cash-in straight-to-DS shovelware sequel.

I don't mean to imply here that I've been playing this for longer than a day, or that I will still be playing it on Wednesday.

of sexy golf 2, the critics remarked "cash-in straight-to-DS shovelware sequel"
― cozen, Monday, 13 December 2010 19:04 (thirteen years ago) link
I wonder if some generous spirited Brit tinkerer could pull this apart and edit it so that the Famitsu Death Panel is replaced by injoke spouting 80s Spectrum/C64 magazine subhumans? It'd be kind of apposite; I kept getting grandiose visions of the games I was spending thousands on, then realising that I was putting them out on the game's euphemised equivalent of the c.1987 Brick Gameboy.
While they were at it, they could also add "impenetrable text-based football management", "shit naked poker" and "politically incorrect Native American rape simulator" to the available genres.
Just thinking aloud. In text.

maybe save the rape jokes for the game?

Sorry, that was an oblique, disapproving reference to Custer's Revenge. It was a different time.

Custer's Revenge is really something.

New studio Thrush Cream just doesn't have the same traction as Herpes Enclave. Fantasy MMORPG World of Sperm (& sequel World of Sper2) aren't even hitting 20 mil, the Bumming Puppy animal life games are our best sellers, but still only so-so (tho' one got game of the year). Some of it's bad luck with power cuts, but I think Fran Bloom has a lot to answer for. Totally unreliable. 'I worked really hard on that'. No you didn't. You're capable of 100+ scenario work; regular mid-30s hackwork is just lazy. Thank god for Mr X. He's a trooper.
Maybe I'll just become a mini-skirt trivia shovelware studio.

whats up with mr. x and the king? do they level up hardcore or what? they always look like ass to me.

Mr X never gets huge numbers (300ish range), but he seems to be really reliable: the hackers with mad stats (some 900+ if you level them in everything) are a bit flaky, and knock out too many 'that'll do' efforts for proposals/sound/graphics to be really trustworthy. But apparently if trained in the right direction, they become more reliable? Might be true - Dexter seems to perform solidly as a sound eng, but Fran has screwed me over as a writer, designer and director before now (but her stats so good I don't dare sack her, even though I think the Chimp and Bear might be brilliant).

Im starting to enjoy this game less, mostly because my staff is being a bunch of cunts and I cant come up with funny titles anymore.
― strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Wednesday, 15 December 2010 18:54 (thirteen years ago) link
it's definitely a game where you burn out quickly but those 10 or so hours where the game has its hooks in you are a magical blur of whimsy and profanity

Really. Dutiful, flat & laboured swearing ('Pong Twat, I'll just call it Pong Twat'), being repeatedly let down by hackers and contractors, comfortable progression into 20-30 million sellers, 37/40 over and over. What am I aiming for? Nothing.

('Pong Twat, I'll just call it Pong Twat')

Exactly. I think I hit that stage about a day before I finally quit for good.

Kairosoft's new game, wherein you manage a volcanic springs spa(onsen), is slightly more Japanese:

It appears that the CEO and exec asst from GDS have parlayed their millions from the "CuntFarter" and "Womb Maider" series into a new venture.

Two new Kairosoft games are out on iPhone:
Grand Prix Story and Oh! Edo Towns. Bought them both immediately.

how is the school one? i've heard good things about it.
― Mordy, Wednesday, 9 November 2011 18:58 (twelve years ago) link
ie: is it better than the spa one? bc i tried to get into that a few times unsuccessfully. the ui was a little too unfriendly
The spa one is my favorite. It took me a while to get into it but I love it.
Mega Mall is probably the one that is easiest to get into but it's also TOO easy.
The school one is harder than the the spa one, I'd argue.
― polyphonic, Wednesday, 9 November 2011 19:03 (twelve years ago) link
By "favorite" I mean second favorite. Game Dev #1.
are these all the same? do they change at all during the game or is it just like game dev's endless same same?
― the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Thursday, 10 November 2011 04:49 (twelve years ago) link
Grand Prix Story actually has you watch your guys race around in the cars that you do the stat increases on. Other than that, same sorta dynamic. Different that Hot Springs or Academy, tho, and more like Game Dev, since you're working on improving a product over time that goes into competition, rather than laying out landscape tiles harmoniously.

― Mordy, Thursday, 12 April 2012 01:59 (twelve years ago) link
You build shit, but there's not the heavy reliance on combos and co-location like the onsen/schooling ones. You bump up the stats and kit out your dudes to go hunt for monster/mob fights.
