King Arthur's Gold

How observant of you to notice that there is a game called "King Arthur's Gold." Congrats!

[Chromanoid]

@MM I love your game Soldat. Soldat is one of my favorite games of all time . I think "King Arthur's Gold" is a good name especially because the game has already a fanbase / is a brand. Do you want to rename it / are you unhappy with the name?

Thanks. The game is still in alpha. If I come up with a better name why not change it.

Well I think the name has been spread over the internet already. Changing it may severely harm its popularity. http://www.google.de/search?q="King+Arthur's+Gold"

I'm currently working on a 2D side view Dwarf Fortress-esque game, but i'm struggling to come up with a name. Your little people in the game are known as "Pips", and at the moment the game takes place on an island (at a later date there will be more terrain types).

I originally thought something along the lines of "Pip Isle", but that is a terrible name haha. Anyone got any ideas?

someone make a game called Air Junglist please

[Droqen]

someone make a game called "Air Junglist, Please!"

someone making a game called "Air Junglist, Please!" (but he didn't get one)

The name of my game is 'Firework Factory'. I did try to come up with something wittier, sharper, but the game's name stuck as this and it clearly represents what the game is about.

Thoughts?

That's good then, because that about sums up the game :-)

I'm trying to choose a better name for my game tentatively titled "Spectre Shock." It's going to be sort of a first-person Legend of Zelda with elements of Roguelikes and Shocklikes, and with more of a jungle/cave explorer theme than a high fantasy theme.



Most of the names I've been coming up with are the sort of generic, forgettable "____'s Quest" or "Legend of the ____" names that I want to avoid. I need something short and snappy, memorable, and preferrably just one word.

As mentioned in the devlog, I was thinking about "Understory," as it's contextually appropriate and kind of clever, but it might sound too close to Cave Story on first impression. Opinions?

Understory doesn't seem like it would fit, as it's more for forests and not underground dungeons. Something like "Forefathers' Tomb" could work or something.

[Pirate Hearts]

Well, the game does start out in the jungle, though most of it (80-90%) will be underground.

A couple other ideas I've had:

Pel's Treasure / Pel's ______ ("Pel" is the name of the Hero Guy, at least tentatively. That's up for debate too.)
Maps and Legends (a little cliched, but plays off the double meaning of "legend" and is also the name of a good R.E.M. song )
Possibly something with "Voyage," "Journey," "Expedition," "Trek," "Venture," "Discovery," etc.
Keep "Spectre" in the name, but drop the "Shock" since that's the part that's really bugging me

"Spectre's Tomb"? (Or "Spectres' Tomb," I suppose there could be more than one of them.  )

[Player Ʒ]

Spectres' Tomb, most definitely. Exploring a hidden mausoleum can be pretty fun if you know what you're doing.
