Hii im connor im from the uk and im 16 nice to meet ya! also wanna say im starting on my first story "whats the point?" A story about a man who has been an outcast his entire life and even now at the end of his days this 70 year old man has achieved nothing in his life.he has no friends nor does his family care. Can you turn his life around? or is his meaningless life predertermined by fate? (what do you think of the idea?

Hi and welcome to the site! It does sound intriguing. I am really interested by your idea. Have fun on the site and good luck with your game!

Welcome to the site, enjoy your stay!

Your game sounds pretty interesting, can't wait!

I'm interested. I look forward to seeing what you can do with it. ... Nice avatar, by the way.

Haha thankss guys! ahh thanks guys! umm dont know wether to stick with basic or advanced settings .ive got some cool concepts for advanced settings!what do you guys think? and yess my avatar is brill! im a gay you know ;) 

The advanced editor is better, period. If it's too complex for you, don't use it, but if you can get the hang of it, it's much easier to create good games with it. :P I realize that Light's last name "Yagami" spelled backwards is, indeed, "im a gay" but are you just making a joke or are you actually stating your sexual orientation? xD

Welcome, enjoy your stay :D I think the story sounds like a wonderful idea.

Hahaha thanks guys! and it was meant as a jokeee haha i am bi thoughh p and umm just thinking wether i  should have one ending  with branching paths  (where unique info is revealed on his past on each path) but  ultimately reach the same conclusion yet you believe there has to be a way  so you try and try to save him much like the repetition the person infront of you faces and then slowly you come to the conclusion that there is no way to save him. and you give up just like the futile old man did long ago or do several endings where you can help him  and change his life  in several ways ( for better or for worse... 

You're BI-SEXUAL!?!?

*Pulls out shotgun and shoots you repeatedly*

[CHERQUEZ LA FEMME] "I really do prefer females, though. Wait a minute, how the fuck did I get this perk!? I have a penis!... 60% damage bonus is nice, though, assuming sexuality perks can stack..."

[SPEECH 10/85] "Uhh... Well.... Uhh... Damage!"

[CANNIBAL] "Women are delicious, if ya know what I mean!"

"Welcome to the site, dude." *Avoids awkward interactions*

Bonjour!

Hey there. Nice to meet you Connor. I'm the otter. 

Filthy otter. It is obvious that capybaras are superior. 

Cause giant guinea pigs are so smart. Here why don't you eat some spikeballs? When you die from their poison coursing through your body, ill be sure to give you a proper burial. 

Only one of you furry mermaids would fall for that. 

Otters are clearly better. They know how to work with metal, apparently.

Dude, capybaras build FUCKING LABYRINTHS. Also, you've never seen an actual burrow. The hologram tech is much too sophisticated. The only man to see the true burrow, was butchered. 

Pff, otter holograms can actually turn solid and butcher people themselves. I've seen many a capyburrow, and I've been butchered many times. It's fun to see the look on their faces when they see you regenerating and murdering the shit out of them.

Otters also build labrynths. Daedalus hired an otter to design the labrynth that the Minotaur was kept in.

Then Daedalus had his wings melted off by a capybara assassin. YOU DON'T CROSS THE CAPYBARAS.  

Oh yeah, the sun was the official story. 

If Daedalus hired an otter to make his wings, your heat lasers would have been reflected off at dangerous angles and both of the flyers could have gotten away safely.

But he couldn't have. He was drugged by a capybara the night before, and forced to build them himself. 

CAPYBARAS ARE ALWAYS TWO STEPS AHEAD. 

Luckily, the otters were 2.5 steps ahead, and built a floating trampoline on the surface of the ocean to save Daedalus and his son.

It's a shame the trampoline had it's floatation devices shot out from under it. It's equally shameful that the trampoline was fired into the SUN. 

I agree, otters are obviously better. Though, capybara's taste better...

I don't know what you're talking about.  But otters are the best.

And yes, in some countries they eat capys.  Otters, by contrast are rank and foul-tasting.  At least, according to the Comte de Buffon.

(Although, apparently they're both translated as nutria, according to my college prof friend?)

Grilled capybara cheek and legs is probably one of the best tasting edible delights I've ever had the pleasure to experience. Capybara comes HIGHLY recommended if you find yourself in a country which serves it.

Otters probably taste like crap - they're more like pets or zoo attractions than a source of sustenance.

I agree that sadly otters don't taste like a delicacy. 

Capybaras unfortunately take all the taste.
