Re: Playshapes' Games

Well, comes to mind that the non-porn counterpart is produced by a company that has several paid programmers working with the lastest hardware/software for several months (years in some cases). All this for the purpose of selling (hopefully) milions of copies around the world to make a considerable amount of money.
I'm confused, when I said counterpart, I meant still dealing with flash games. You just took the most extreme sides of the spectrum as if that makes sense in the decision. Obviously a game making company makes better games than a flash artist. Non-h games obviously run a large spectrum, but living with someone who animates and creates games both as a living and as a hobby, people usually take more time to make sure the game is better structured.

On the other hand we have a guy working with wathever he can get his hands on, during his free time, actually losing money on the bills, for no other gain than his personal satisfaction.
Personally i wouldn't bother downloading a rpgmaker for free if there wasn't a consistent chance i could get money out of it...
I've heard this reasoning, and although I have no problems with people who do that, that excuse is flawed. A) I'm not making complaints for nothing, I've made comparisons. These comparisons are aimed between this maker and other makers who do the exact same thing, so those criticisms are completely fair. And b) It's a hobby. People take time to do hobbies and don't expect getting paid for em. I've been teaching myself electric bass and guitar for a while, put time into learning songs, making videos and releasing them that obviously have no intent on making money, but it doesn't mean I don't learn the entire song or release something half-assed. Me and my friends started a skit group in its filming process that take a long time to set up, write, cast, light, and shoot, and I wouldn't want to release shitty mic'ed videos even though I won't make money off of it. A work of passion should be something you're passionate about, and if it's poorly put together, there seems to be passion missing.


In this kind of game you can find flaws, glitches or fetishes that don't belong to you, but you can't really complain. You are free to speak your opinion, but asking him to do more than he wants to do is not in your rights as he does not ask you to support him through money/effort.
I don't want him to do anything, even the best games have criticisms and all I'm doing is noting them which, like you said, I have a right doing. Just because I don't finance the museum doesn't mean I can't talk about the works displayed in a public forum.

My bad, i guess i read it wrong since i've never seen a non-h mario flash game(not completely ripped off the original) that could be considered good.

Just to keep things easier to read i'll stick to your point system.
A)Its not much about fairness, as i agree that the games aren't anything special, it's more about the way you (structure the expression of your reasoning!!! >.>; ) say it. From your post it looks like the game is far worse than it actually is, and you get harsher and harsher the more you try to defend your point, like you're dividing the world between good games and bad games without grey zones, which i think is what's making everyone bark your way...(Reminds me of an epic discussion on FFX2 but thats another story...) In my case, i read a line wrong. ;p
B)It's a hobby. It doesn't necessarily require passion, most of the times is just a way to kill time, making games probably isn't even his main hobby, might just be a slight interest that comes out from time to time when he is bored. Since you don't know much about this guy you should try not to take it personally, since the way you do things isn't the rule. If you put passion in what you do i'm happy for you, but even if it's just to make your point clear, it kinda make you look like you're boasting...(This probably sound bad in english, i can't think of anything better, but no offence meant)

I don't want him to do anything, even the best games have criticisms and all I'm doing is noting them which, like you said, I have a right doing. Just because I don't finance the museum doesn't mean I can't talk about the works displayed in a public forum.
I'm not sure how it works where you live, but where i live most museums receive economic support from the government which get part of it's money from the taxes i........................*cough*

Re: Playshapes' Games

I'll just post this here.

_____________
Hackers Cheats
_____________

To input these cheats, you have to run the flash in your browser, then you must input the cheats in your address bar.

Copy/Paste or type out the following

javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("_root.INSERT CODE HERE", 1);

(Note: Some of these cheats must be input after Peach gives the Chancellor a blowjob but just for safety, input them after that part)

1. big = Mushroom Effect (Makes Peach's Breast Bigger)

2. coon = Tanuki Costume Jump Effect (It will only give her the Tanuki power effect, not the costume)

3. dress = Gives Peach her Dress

4. fire = Fire Peach Costume (Peach must be nude to recieve it)

*********
Coin Amount
*********
Inputing this code requires that you change two parts of the javascript code. You must replace "INSERT CODE HERE" with "Score" and change the number "1" at the end of the code to whichever amount you wish to have.

Example: javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("_root.Score", 100);

Re: Playshapes' Games

Sorry that I have to ask, but does anyone have the source file(.fla) for Mario is Missing? I'm programming illiterate so they would be quite valuable for me to possibly make my own game.

Thanks.

If he's asking for source, I very much doubt that. And there's already links to that here.

Coment from the site

Legend of Krystal

Legend of Krystal was an unfinished Flash game created by PlayShapes (also known for creating Bowser's Castle). PlayShapes originally made an alpha version of the game available, followed by the .fla file used to create it. This project aims to take the original game file and evolve it into a finished game by completing scenes, and adding in new ones.

More like they refuse to put out content because they're afraid that'll put "pressure" on themselves to deliver. Fuck 'em I didn't even know whatever we're talking about existed, still don't.

did you type this with your feet or what?

also to my understanding noones even working on it anymore, the forum basically goes by playshape's example and doesnt finish jack shit... theres not even a project anymore, the forum is entirely discussion and a handful of game designers making their own games. (2 got finished so far)

very harsh to them...lets keep in mind the people at LoK are not the only quitters in the gaming world many developers have left incredible games (such as nano crisis) because they got bored...plus keep in mind they are working for free...

Not true, Ren and a few others are still working on the original Legend of Krystal remake that spawned the forums. This is completely based on the fact that Ren continues to refute rumors that the project is completely dead, but will not release teases.

In my opinion the only thing people on that forum are doing wrong is "marketing". They are releasing very early conceptual stuff and show a few polished pieces, but they still are overselling their "product". When they stop working on it for (usually)personal reasons, people get upset because it looks like they had something they were going to release. I did the same thing with a game I teased about on futanaripalace but completely lost the motivation to work on, working on that shit is hard when you have a job/social obligations.

tl;dr

Why does everyone get so pissy about free porn? (not directed at this thread, just a general question).

Re: Playshapes' Games

You realize ren's team has been "working" on this game for like 2 years now with no evidence that any work has been done.... (area 52 released a few loops? does that count?)
I think back 2 years ago someone else would have finished the game had they not seen this whole forum full of people going "oh yeah we got this". Its not that someone else couldn't have still tried, but whats the point of working on essentially the same thing? I'm sure to this day people are coming across LoK and going "oh cool I could finish this" then doing a quick google search and going "nahhh someone else is doing it".
