Well, sounds like a wiki might be better? I was thinking blog because with each new post, automatically updates so readers can keep up without having to search or browse @ all.

Might work slightly better as a limited editor wiki instead of a blog. Just because its easier to make indexes for wikis than blogs.

2D shooter aiming system I thought of a while back, might be inspiration?   Gentleman

Button1: Enemy target select.
Button2: Target select, fire.
Button3: Friendly target select (For Medics and Spy Hunting  Cool )

Hit button1+2 OR crouch, to reset your target selection (or Button1+Button3?)

Works like such:
Face a direction.
Press Button1.
See a floating crosshair fling out in the direction you face, locking onto the first enemy it spots.
Press Button1 to cycle to the NEXT enemy, AKA the one behind them.
Press Button2 to select a target and begin AIMING.

Whilst aiming, good sirs, ye do not mash Button2. Oh no.
Your elegant Aim bar fills from the left to the right, with accuracy!
If the bar is below half, you will miss completely1 (no mashing!)
If you press Button2 JUST AS the meter fills, ye do extra damage
(erm, not sure it it should be 300% critical.. just more damage.

Advantages: Timing-skill in aiming! Replaces those stupid 3D mouselook!
Advantages: Skilled players do skillful damage with excellent timing! Voila!
Advantages: Two target selection buttons means you can control who you're trying to kill at any time!
Advantages: See bullets fly to an enemy from your teamate, then target the enemy yourself!

(PS as you can tell I took the time to write this.. TF2 demake sounds fricken awesome, no I haven't seen Buddy Base)

(MY BAD. I didn't see the game was complete, I just rushed ahead with a suggestion.. downloading and playing now  Embarrassed Embarrassed Embarrassed Embarrassed Embarrassed)

i was imagining a strange website called
blankpunk. (hostingsite).com
where tigsource writers wrote
and assigned tags
to create a #####punk collection on the internet
 WTF

O_o I've been tossing around text-mmos in my head ever since I played THE GLORIOUS MUDII.CO.UK
51  Player / Games / Re: HOLY SHIT GUYS BRAID REVIEWED BY YAHTZEE on: September 01, 2008, 05:46:54 PM
I saw Yahtzee's Review and some youtube footage.. it looks um, average. A guy running, jumping, collecting pieces. A jigsaw minigame.
JB made Flow -- the game where you were flying around in the clouds supposed to reach zen enlightenment or something? (wrong title) I really hope that game was a post-modernist joke because it was one of the most boring pieces of software I have ever excecuted on my machine.
Braid looks like an average platformer, I am  WTF why it's being called best-game-ever because what I've seen it looks average.. unless I just have to "play it", but now it's starting to sound like a Jonathan Blow Cult.  Cry

Marathon series changed my life in a very philosophical, profound way. It got me thinking more about serious stuff.

Aaaaand... It's over. No more entries will be accepted. Great work everyone! I think I'll compile all the stories into a monster post at the start of a new thread. Anybody know how many words you're allowed in a single post, though? I think I might need a few  :D And then we can have a poll and stuff. Am I right in thinking only a mod can make a poll here? That's probably a good thing, actually. I was there when they introduced polls to Gamespot forums.  Shocked It wasn't a pretty sight.

 Gentleman  Beer!  Cool

You're doing it wrong!  This isn't a demake, it's an upgrade.
And for that, I applaud you.

She's demaking the demake competition! We have our meta-winner!
Looks cool.

O_o would this allow programming noobs, such as myself, to create roguelikes with understanding of design, logic, and colours alone?  WTF
