p.s. Is anyone going to compile a big huge download of all the games?  Because that would make me very happy.

I was just going to ask that myself.  Terry's answer seems reasonable.

[Bezzy]

Sciere, thanks for the response.

As I said before, I don't particularly mind it being there... I just found the attention a bit confusing, because I had assumed that moby games was about finished games which were available to buy, rather than freeware/hobbyist stuff. But you've cleared that up. Don't bother taking it down, I guess, because I fully intend to develop it further, but slowly. Might as well be up there, if having a big catalog of all games ever is the point of it.

However: 3.6? Damn . You hurt my feeling!

I think I rediscovered the reason why nothing of mine ever gets released: the ratings cut deeper than I am willing to admit  .

Aw, come on, why would you be bothered by the ratings of a random internet idiot. Played it, liked it, wrote about it! And as you say to develop it further, there is room for re-rating 

[Zaphos]

And the score was something like 3.6 before I bumped it. Probably all it deserved. Out of ten.

The scores are out of 5, not 10.  3.6/5 isn't that bad ...

[Melly]

It felt odd to have Minus up there too. The description is also off, as the health gauge has been removed, and the game's not finished per-se, though the competition entry is. If it wouldn't be too much trouble Sciere could you edit the description just removing the fact that there is health? You might want to play the latest version. If you can't get around to it I'll eventually do so myself, just kinda busy.

[Sciere]

Sure, it's been revised 

[mewse]

MMORPG Tycoon is GPLv3.

It's actually not. 

After a fairly exhaustive search, I've finally found that the old 'About' section of my website implied that everything on the site is released as GPLv3, which is no longer the case;  I've now revised that page.  But I had intentionally removed all of my usual GPLv3 notices from the credits and readme files for MMORPG Tycoon, and the source code for the game itself has never actually been made available.

But based on that old 'About VectoStorm' page, I can understand why you'd make this mistake.  My fault.


(The VectorStorm game engine that MMORPG Tycoon is built upon is still available under the GPLv3 license, as well as all of my "Game in a Week" games.)

hm where was I

ah yeah, see the trouble you've caused Sciere with your mobypoints whoring!!!! my god man will you never rest!!! 

[Sciere]

By all means, move along! I'm already typing this out of a hole in my backyard where I have been hiding since yesterday. 

[Bezzy]

<Bezzy> OUCH!
<Bezzy> my mobygames rating just got down-bumped to 2.9
<Bezzy> which of you fuckers...
<Bezzy> HA HA HA
<jstckr>
<Bezzy> I'm not going to hurt you
<Bezzy> c'mon! fess up!
<Bezzy> we can have a jolly nice laugh about it

I thought what you were doing was nice. Though, there is an interesting point of when a game is "finished". I know that I consider CuteGod finished, but nowhere near as polished as a for-pay game. Its still a dozen revisions from a polished release.

All Entries from A Punnett Shooter --> Everyone Loves Active 2
All Entries from Everyone Loves Active 2 --> RND Game in Space
All Entries from RND Game in Space --> ZICZAC

This is mostly for me, but I thought I'd post this up here in case other people want to use it.  I don't know if it's already been done (I didn't feel like spending an hour reading all the other pages in the thread).  If it hasn't, feel free to re-post this somewhere else.  It's a list of all the downloadable locations of every game, both finished and unfinished (because I'm insane).

NOTE: I wasn't sure how to differentiate between "Finished" and "Unfinished" but both are downloadable.  Unfinished usually means the author intends to (or at least implied that he or she will) release future versions.  [Demo] (for the most part) is classified under Unfinished.  Also, I don't have a MAC or Linux, so all are the Windows .exes.

NOTE2: This only goes to show that good compos=great results.  Keep up the visionary compos and get those designers to stretch their skills...

Cheers for that

As it happens I complied more or less the same list yesterday, and I've been playing through the games - I'll upload the lot later on today so that people can get them all with one download

[William Broom]

Nice work. Though, could you take out the [FINAL MIX +] thing from my game (Diaspora). It wasn't really part of the title, just a joke because I kept declaring it finished and then finding more things to add/fix.

... Savage Balloon 3000 was a VGNG game.
