Light of Altair is a wonderful, innovative space colonization game. It really needs some attention. http://www.saintxi.com/

At least we have them and we can correct them when we have the resources.

what do those resources entail -- more editors? more free time?

[progrium]

more editors, etc.

i'm sure we could put some together, but i was leaving that up to derek.

I addressed a bunch of the Are We Wrong? comments.

Questions about the TIGdb...
My questions are... do you want to see these types of games (or more of these types of games) in the database:
2. Really old ass games for outdated platforms that are hard/impossible to play on a PC/Mac without an emulator.  (Personally, I think it'd be kind of silly to start adding Amiga/Speccy/C64 games to TIGdb.  Or anything else that can't be bought/downloaded and played fairly easily today.)

I wanted to suggest Metal Dust  for the C64, but I guess that, given its requirements (SuperCPU, which maybe emulators do not handle), it doesn't qualify, right? It's a bit of a pity, because the game is indie, is post-Y2K and is on sale
Anyway, guys , I suggest you have a look at least at the trailer - it's really worth it, especially if you know the hardware limitations of the C64.

Adding iPhone as a platform?
There are a lot of great indie games on it, and I'm sure quite a bit of games in production as well.

[progrium]

This is simply up to Derek.

So... how does one submit developer info for the TigDB? The submit button only does game info, near as I can tell.

Will Spelunky ever make its way to the TIGDB, Mr. Yu?

And here is my Unity 3D game http://dadadagames.com/drunk-car/
There was nasty error when I tried to register in DB, so I'm posting here.

Thanks

Hmm, I'm having trouble registering at TigDB, I meet with the following error message:

500 Internal Server Error

Any ideas?

A nice old classic that I used to play over ten years ago. A ton of fun if you have a buddy to play against.

Crime Fighter is a game for up to four players.

In contrast to many other games and unlike the name of the game announces, you don't fight against crimes, but you try to commit as many of them as possible. For example you can play pickpocket, raid supermarkets and hotels, steal cars, raid banks, attack mail trains, and so on. Since you are in a big town you have many different opportunities for this. As soon as you have a high standing in the criminal underworld, you are also able to sign on gangsters that join your gang. This gangsters then can be trained or equipped with weapons (for example with pistols or machine guns). Your aim is to seize the power in the underworld. But the way is very dangerous, especially since the other players try exactly the same. And also the police are hard on your heels....

But be careful: Crime Fighter is absolutely addictive.

The game is like a turnbased GTA and consists of tons of small crime related minigames that allows the player to elevate his status in the underworld.

Regarding the "Are We Wrong?" thing, is it still hopeless to send reports (I've sent one, so I'd like to know whether it's just a matter of waiting)?

[Derek]

It's not hopeless, but it may take a while. I usually go through them all in one sitting.

OK, thanks

Is it about BOH? You can just tell me here and I'll try and fix it.

Wonderful
This is the text linked to in the message (it didn't fit in the text box):

Hello,

I'm the author of BOH and I'd like, first of all, to thank you for adding it to TIGdb. Also, I'd like to request a few corrections, if possible.

Currently, BOH is defined as "a top-down shooter", but that is not correct as the game's focus is principally on exploration and puzzle solving; of course there is action, but that is secondary and only intended to pressure the player while he/she tries to understand the mazes and the right sequence of actions to do. Indeed, it is impossible to describe BOH in few words; in fact, I have changed myself the introductory words on the official website quite a number of times, without ever being satisfied! At the moment the initial description says: "BOH is a unique retro-flavoured puzzle-riddled maze game spiced up with thrilling action". Feel free to use it directly or for inspiration.

Then, if BOH is difficult to describe, it is even more difficult to categorize! Because of what said above, "Action" is not a suitable genre; among those available on TIGdb, "Adventure" is the best one, I'd say.

Now an easy thing: the game is not freeware, but commercial, and it currently sells at EUR 10 (~ 14 USD).

Finally, a not so important point. The platforms listed are correct, but BOH indeed runs also on AmigaOS and AROS: would it be possible to include them as well?

Thanks for your time!
