I need some help on my Dinosaur Simulator Storygame. It's going to be PAINFULLLY hard.

I'm not a fond of animal storygames. So...

@Anyoneelsethatcanhelp

Haha, animals! Right in my ballpark! ;)

As much as I'd love to make a painfully hard game, I don't know that much about dinosaurs, am currently coauthoring two other games, and then there's Life of a Warrior... I also spend quite a lot of time on the forums.

What type of coauthor? Editor? Variable worker? Character designer? Coauthor, as in story-teller?

A co-author that I can share ideas with and to write the storygame, Check for mistakes, and proof-read. Since If I do iit, I'll think its good and I won't see mistakes. Plus, before I add ANY dino, I look up info. So you don't need to know about Dinosaurs that much, because I can tell them. 

I know this doesn't make sense.

So a coauthor, that's just another author. Makes sense.

Now, what was I supposed to say..?

I guess I could help, but I'm not very good at variables. Ask Jaystar for help, she apparently loves dinosaurs.

ok

I could give you some herbivore facts, since my favorite dino is the Argentinosaurs, the biggest dinosaur ever found, except I think they only found the foot.........Dang, that's huge.

Being a Grammar Nazi, I'll be able to fix any grammar and spelling mistakes.

I can always do research on dinosaurs (trust me, I'm gonna watch Jurassic World) if you plan on basing the game on cold, hard dino facts.

Yup
 

Feathered Dinos:CHECK

Yup

Feathered? You want velociraptor information? They had feathers.

I know!

Almost all dinosaurs were COVERED in Feathers!

Just checked.

Huh, never noticed that...

did you know that the Spinosaurus is more Water-Like then ANY other dinosaur?

Yeah.

Good to hear.

If you need any other facts or tips from a Grammar Nazi heil spellcheck on writing, go ahead and PM me.

Did you know that some scientists actually think the T-Rex had feathers?

Mind blown...

Yup .3.

Look farther up....

Did you know Jurrassic Park made Featherless Dinosaurs popular?

.3.

No, I don't think that's true. In fact, the early paleontologists actually drew a lot more non-feathered dinosaurs than the opposing.

Well, they made Featherless Dinosaurs EVEN MORE POPULAR

Are you sure about that...? *smirky grin*

I could give you some herbivore facts, since my favorite dino is the Argentinosaurs, the biggest dinosaur ever found, except I think they only found the foot.........Dang, that's huge.

Did it for you.
 

Huh, I thought it was the Liepluridon... (I don't know how to spell it, but it's pronounced lie-plur-uh-don)

Imagine a ten-or-so story building.  That is about the length of the tail (when the building is flipped sideways.) Then wonder about the body.

Holy. Crap.

Liepluridon just got owned.

OooooooO

Found it!

Ah, I see my error...

Admire the giant Argentinosaurus!

LONG LIVE THE DINO!

Can I still love the wolf of the Jurrasic, the Allosaurus? And the plated beast, the Stegosaurus?

My favorite dino is Sauroposeidon. 

Man its HUGE

You broke the page. XD

.3.

I can probably help with variables and shite, if you want to add them.

Painfully hard, huh? xD While I have experience with stories like that, I can't say I have a lot of time on my hands lately ... if you find yourself in need of a beta reader when you're close to finishing, I'll be around.

How long has it been painfully hard for?

For a few days .3. 

I have to make everything right, I can't have 2 of the same page AT ALL .3. 

Man its hard

A few days? You're supposed to call a doctor if it lasts more than four hours. :P

To say what? "Hey, doc! Guess what? I got one!"

I'll just call out for now. I'll ask If i need any help. Thanks guys

"Stories like that," Malk.
 

Shhhh. :P

xD I'm assuming you're never going to need me, NB. You have plenty of people interested in helping out.

I can help a little bit. I might be able to give you some grammar tips. (But I guess Derp already took that spot T-T)

Thanks everyone for your help. I'll make a few more pages before deciding who'll be the co-author :D

Why do you feel you need help with the storygame? Because grammar? Why not wait after you've completely finished the game (which includes proofreading on your own) before asking others to take a look at ir?
