Y'know, if you wanted to call the brothers Steel and Wood(y) in my honour, I really wouldn't mind!

Consider it done!

Well at least now I can say that I can put my name to a great game!

[brettchalupa]

Two game names I'd like to submit for being rated.

The first one is currently in development. It is called a dream to fly. It's a top-down, 2D game that takes place in space. The player has somehow gotten into space with a jetpack and glass helmet. The goal is to rotate around stars and collect oxygen bubbles before you run out of breath.

The second one is a game I am currently planning and beginning to design. It is called Fauna and this is really the first time I've talked about it. It's about a boy (who I am currently calling Buk) who must save his girlfriend (Fauna) and the forest area they live in. A lot of the game deals with interaction with the forest and cavern animals (whether it be fighting them or saving them).

Hi guys

We will soon release this little guy to the world




What do you think of the name? "Harry the Fairy".

Cheers

What do you think of the name? "Harry the Fairy".

[Birdorf]

Harry the Fairy doesn't sit well with me I'm afraid, I think this is due to Frank Bruno(boxer) and Harry Carpenter(commentator). When being interviewed by Harry Carpenter, Frank Bruno's catchphrase was, "Ya know what I mean 'arry", nothing fairy about it. This is probably just an England thing, and the name will be fine for the rest of the world. (and normal people)

Hairy the Fairy?

For my university I have been working on a simple puzzle/platformer for 2 months now.  While this project will be due in 3 weeks I'm going to continue working on it after the semester is over and I finish the other projects of the semester. But I need some help on the name! (I'll post a devlog here after I get one)

I should start by an elevator pitch of the game idea:  You are electro-magnetically charged and you can push or pull yourself or objects around the game world.  Thats really the gist of it.  I should note I have no story written (although something fun would be awesome).  So far death is only caused by water (which fries you till you explode)

The working title is just "Magnetic" which obviously needs to go. I just needed one for my course requirements and I hadn't given it much thought.

Here's a few development videos which show the game's progress so you can get an idea of what I'm making.

Build 28:

Build 22 (Just after adding static magnets):


Also comes with an editor

So anyone got any clever names regarding the gameplay? I'm having a little writers block in that area.

[RamSteelwood]

Magnus Magnetsson in Opposites Attract.

[GiffE]

Magnus Magnetsson in Opposites Attract.

Magnus Magnetsson III (the 3rd) since his name sounds so fancy as it is, I mine as well go full blown aristocrat!
I was thinking of making some play on "Opposites Attract" actually, and coming up with some cutesy love theme/story for Magnus.  As simple as him, well to do aristocrat, chasing after some a Cinderella.
Definitely an improvement though, RamSteelwood, Thanks!

Those footstep noises really have to go. >_<

[John Sandoval]

As do the buzzing noises.

Thank you! I like the sound of that, I will add it to the potential list of names.

I'm going to give this a whirl~

Our game is a puzzle platformer, where a so-far nameless character uses its grappling hook to get from place to place. There are individual levels, rather than a large world to explore (although that would be neat...) Here is a screenshot:
