I wanna make a text game like this!

Do you think it would be possible to, in some way, make a game...at least slightly similer to this. Not exactly, but in someway play like it, just in text.

I played the demo version.  I also played the full version earler last month.  I don't really like it but the idea is possible.  There is no luck varible so it is easy to do if you figure it out.

Yeah, and there is going to be a stickrpg 2 later on. Early 2006, late 2005, are my guesses of when it will come out. I love those type of games. No. 2 is looking to be good to.

What do you mean. They have a site on it. Also, the reason they wern't working on SRPG2, was because they were working on a top secret online flash game, stick arena. Which has been released recently, you can play it at there site, www.xgenstudios.com.

I  can't figure out a good way to make a sim game on here...

I wanna make a text game like this!

why cant you? it should (in Theory here since ive not tried myself) be pretty easy. just emulate THE SIMS video game. on there you have all kinds of different variables that change depending on the choices you make. Variable-happiness goes down when you get a job but Variable-Money goes up.

Complete and Utter agreement.

I wanna make a text game like this!

It is 100% possible.  The sim game you are talking about (sucks) has no randomness in it so you just have to figure out how it works.

i agree the games suck lol especially for PS2. however, when doing a sims game randomness is not always a neccessity. when you get a job you hate your happiness goes down but your money goes up. randomness just makes things too hard sometimes. KISS-Keep It Simple Stupid. lol

Oh, my god we learned about KISS in math finance. Also, I just have troubles keeping up with all of the varibles. Pluse, the sims is random. Your meters also deplete over time not with actions like online flash sim games, so that makes it even harder to do. I'll try to make one with "KISS" though, lol.

The sims are always so hard.  How do you keep everything up at the same time?  Sleep and Work take way to long and deplete all the other stats.  It is unfair.  Also, the expansions don't bring anything good.  They are always bad.

Well, if you're a newbie at the sims, it's good to have "free will" on so the sims will bring up their most urgent need. However if you have played the sims in any way possible (me) you don't need free will and can keep up with it all by yourself. Yeah, the game isn't easy, I still have troubles doing everything I want to, but I think it's fun anyway.

Also I will try to make a sim game on here. When someone else has accomplished it.

ARGH! Not working out. I need some insperation, how would you (this is pertaining to anyone on the site) make a sim game on here? I need to figure out someway, but I can't get it to play like some game like stick RPG so far. It's hard.

I could easily do stick RPG.

He can't.  He hasn't made any games, thats a fairly hard one to do well, so I would say he would need some exp.

It isn't that hard to copy.  I know the varibles and everything.  The battle system would be hard though.  Otherwise it is easy.  I don't know what Karma does though.

I wanna make a text game like this!

Oh, and I can make items known as varibles.

Karma makes you either be prez, or a dictator. -100 karma makes you a dictator later on, while 100 karma makes you the prez later on. I know how to do the variables and everything, it's just getting it to work in a text game without anything repeting can be hard. Plus I don't want to MAKE STICK RPG, I just wanted to use a similer gameplay system to make my OWN sim game. got it, . Ok.
