25 Questions with Scoring
You are Crab Trainer X! Choose your Crustacean Combatant and Battle for Glory in Crab Arena! The Championship Belt is within your Grasp! Can You Do It? Hell Yes You Can!
Now GO!!!
How To Play
Fight 3 Round Battles with 4 Opponents; and then a 5 Round Battle with the Final Opponent. Each Round you choose an Attack and an Elemental Focus to power it.
CLAW HAMMER beats Body Slam / BODY SLAM beats Double Snip / DOUBLE SNIP beats Claw Hammer
FIRE consumes Air / WATER puts out Fire / EARTH soaks up Water / AIR blows away Earth
A Color-Coded Bar shows the results between the Attacks and Focuses: Green = Win; Yellow = Draw; Red = Lose
Your Attack determines who Wins the Round; the Elemental Focus determines how much Damage you will take and how many Power Points you will gain. Your Wins and Losses at the end of each Battle determine whether you advance or go down in flames.
Can you survive the Zombie Apocalypse? While challenging, it's not as hard as the movies would have you believe - where they always make the worst possible decisions for the sake of drama. At least here, you will be offered logical choices amid the foolhardy and your character cares about survival even more than you do. A serious game with gory detail.

Find Out Now, In: Kill Aman’s Mustache!
A horror(ble) puzzle of hairy implications with a side of lice...
Note that embedded audio requires windows media player plug-in to hear. You will likely be prompted to allow it if you don't already have it installed.
(Please don't be mean and Rate this game poorly just because it’s a worthless piece of crap. Seriously - you will totally hurt the feelings of the thirteen year old orphan schoolgirl from Korea that I hired to write this and who has very little grasp of grammar and doesn’t speak any Engrish and is dying of toenail cancer – you heartless brutes.)
The king has proposed a contest of intellect.
You have a balance scale and twelve identical looking spheres of gold - except that one is either heavier or lighter than all the rest. Using the scale and only 3 measurements, you must determine which is the 'odd ball' and whether it is lighter or heavier.
If you fail, you get to be court jester for a month. The king has a terrible sense of humor - trust me; you don't want to be court jester (even for just a month). It's part of the reason he holds this contest. It's the only way he can get anyone to 'sign-up' for the job.
If you can correctly guess the 'odd ball,' but not whether it's lighter or heavier than all the others, you get to go free.
But if you can get the right ball AND figure out whether it's lighter or heavier - you get to keep all twelve spheres of gold. They're worth a small fortune - enough to buy your own keep - which would raise you up from lowly Surf to rich Landowner in the blink of an eye.
What do you have to lose - except your dignity...
A Penguin's Fairy Tale

You are 'Penguin,' a small stuffed toy owned by a little girl named Sarah. You love Sarah very much and Sarah loves you. You know this, because Sarah says so quite often. You are Sarah's favorite toy.
Five Pin Code

The following is a 'How To It Guide,' for building a Five Pin Pass Code into your game for the purpose of pass-coding Unlockables, Game Sequels, or the like.

My crack at story writing.. on 5/18/2013 7:05:09 PMI checked it out and it's a decent start, but really far too short to really assess right now.
The writing seems solid (except no space after your periods for some reason in a few instances). Again, much too short to give the story itself any real feedback, but I do like Pokemon (especial the original 150), so I'd be interested in seeing where the story went.
If you want to open it to anyone to give a look through, you'll want to post the link to the story game here. Or you could PM the link to those that volunteer to help proof it. Your choice.
Don't be discouraged if it takes a day or two or folks to see and reply to this thread though. As it's via forum, responses can take time.
Good luck - and let me know when you have the story up to the first battle and I'll check it out again =)

Hmm, sounds like a worthwile thing to try out. You may come up with a system that others will want to use in their games too. Just watch out for making it too complicated, like I did with Zombie City haha!

Hi and welcome =)
Publishing any part of an unfinished story is not the best way to get an idea of how good it is. There is a general loathing around here of demos and unfinished work and it will get hammered in the ratings, regardless of potential.
I highly recommend not publishing any unfinished work at all.
If you want feedback though, then make sure your game has Sneak Preview enabled (it’s the default setting) and then ask some of the folks in the writing forum to check it out. Most are happy to do a read through and give you a critique with helpful advice and that way you won’t get a bunch low ratings for having an unfinished story published.
Good luck with your projects =)

MUSTACHE WEAKNESS?!?
on 5/18/2013 1:04:05 PM
Did you?
(People must really skim through the Endings haha!)
But yes, Aman's vile Mustache is a disporic nuesance of immense power - but it is limited by the very secrets it keeps. Though to be honest, I may have inadvertantly given it even more power recently, by providing yet another secret for it to withhold hehehe....

Ten Year Anniversary

I still would like to see this happen, but it has sort of gotten set aside for one reason or another - mostly we have not come to a consensus about the format of the contest.
Curious though - as this is a game writing site, do you think the contest should involve writing an actual game? Or simpler (and quicker) by writing a smaller piece, like a humorous run-on sentance, an outline to a game, the most interesting protagonist, etc... ???
