I'm not sure if you checked out the GameGround app on Facebook but I uploaded the version of Sworbs I made for them in the lab section. It's more fast paced with minor visual and gameplay changes.

It will either be Bloups, an updated Combo Out, or a word game. I have word detection programmed so it wouldn't be too much work making a word game. The hard part is thinking of an original idea so I'll probably do something similar to Boggle like the screenshot.

Having achievements is a great idea! They will keep the highest leveled players interested and also encourage players to play again if they die. There are some other games that I'll finish first but I'll try to get a little demo working soon.

The goal of the game is to explore the world and level up your character as high as you can. You level up by killing creatures. The creatures don't move so it's up to the player to
initiate the fight. Some areas may be blocked off by a high level creature so the player
must fight if they want to keep exploring. The fighting will be simple. The player will just stand next to a creature and the damage will automatically be dealt between the two. There will be different attack rates and spells to make the fighting more interesting. Pretty much a simplified version of a RPG.

To add competition between other players, your "high score" will be your level. It will automatically be saved so you don't have to get the high score in one sitting. You can do it over time. The idea is to be able to log on and play little bit at a time. If you die, you have to start over but your score will still remain. It will be indicated on the high score list if a the player's character is still alive or dead.

Swapnote sounds like a good way to handle chat on the 3DS. Too bad you can't use it while playing games since that's what people are mostly doing.

That one is my favorite. The gameplay would be pretty simple but I think it would be addictive. Making it would be a lot of work, though.

I'll have to bring Tankies back. It was fun working on it and anything multiplayer is fun to play.

Does the 3DS have any type of chat feature?

I uploaded the images to the Lab section. They are just random idea/mockup image files. Hopefully they all become playable some day. I also made a simple Facebook page. I'll definitely bring back the old chat or some kind of chatting system if I get more active users. Maybe one that will allow players to chat while playing games.

I'm also too lazy to log in every time, haha. I have some images of game ideas that I'll upload sometime soon. They're nothing special but it's something to show. I have a personal Facebook page but I don't use it much. I never really thought about making one for the site but you're right, it wouldn't hurt! I'll let you know when I upload the images and have a Facebook page for the site.

It's been longer than I thought! Things are going pretty good. The latest game I worked on was a updated version of Sworbs for a Facebook app called GameGround. I haven't been motivated to work on anything new for a while but I still think about new ideas every day. Other than that, it's pretty much work and hanging out. How about you?

My idea is to make the avatars match the art style of the game they are in but have common characteristics across all of the games. If that makes sense, haha. For example, if you make your avatar have a brown mohawk in one game, he will have a brown mohawk in all the other games but will look different depending on that game's art style. People might like to make completely different avatars for each game though, so I'll think about it more when the time comes.

I'll try to have something customizable for each multiplayer game. I have some avatars for Bloups. I put up a little demo in the lab section (below the Mancala image) to give you an idea on what they'll look like.

I started working on a game a little bit ago called Bloups (the words BLock and grOUPS combined). You can play what I made so far in the lab section. You probably played something similar before. Reeg wanted me to make a game like this. My plan is to have it both single player and multiplayer. That way, if no one is on, you can still play for the highscore. I don't think making a multiplayer only game is worth it at this point because of the small amount of users. Although, I still think about Tankies a lot, haha.

Thanks. I wanted to add more to it but got tired of working on it. Next, I'll probably make a new game (maybe multiplayer) or update Combo Out with better graphics.

I wanted to but never did. I still want to try it out but read a lot of people were disappointed with it. Did you get it or have a chance to play it?

Happy belated birthday! I just saw it now on MySpace

I've never played it before but I do want to check it out. I'll probably see what people think of it first. Does it come with a microphone?

People do love FPS games here. I'm not sure why, haha. I'm hoping to have Nake! done sometime this week. I deciding to put a little more into it than I originally planned. I uploaded what I have so far here lab.aggrix.com/nake.html.

That would stink if it didn't come out here. I wonder why it does so well in Japan but not in North America.

When does Monster Hunter 3 come out?

I won't be surprised if gaming handhelds end up having phone capabilities too. Seems like they are starting to have everything else. That sounds pretty cool though.

I heard a little bit about it. Is it their next generation for their handheld or is this only an upgrade?

It's been getting better ratings lately. It doesn't record your high score there so I think that hinders it a bit.

Sworbs is up on AddictingGames. Here is the url if you want to check it out addictinggames.com/sworbs.html. There are some reviews. The majority doesn't like it as of typing this. They just don't know what they're talking about

.

Thanks. I thought I had a good shot but oh well. AddictingGames bought a license to it and it should be on their site soon. I decided to put the Wii version of Sworbs on hold to finish the update to Nake. It should be done pretty soon unless I get sidetracked again, haha.

Sworbs didn't win anything in that contest. You can see the winners here www.mochiads.com/contest/jul08.

Are you going to buy Spore? I didn't realize that it was coming out tomorrow. I'll probably wait a little bit before I get it.

That's a good idea. I'll probably try something like that.

I forgot to show you the Mancala game I was working on before Sworbs. I uploaded a screenshot to the lab section. I was thinking of making something where users could create themselves (like Mii's but only their head) for future multiplayer games where you compete against each other.

Thanks. I'm going to work on the Wii version now. It shouldn't take me too long because everything will be the same except a little bigger and rearranged to fit on the tv screen.

I was going to let you know today. I was going to wait to add it to this site by I thought I would just do it real quick. I entered the score you got on sworbs.com for you.

That's a pretty good score. If you play it at www.sworbs.com you can record your highscore. That version will be spread around the internet. The version for this site will have its own highscore and no ads.

That's a good idea. I'll probably add more stuff like that in the future. I had to rush it to get it done on time but I can still make changes to it after I release it.

Sworbs is pretty much finished if you want to check it out. I just have a few minor things to do. The version for this site will probably be finished over the weekend.

No but it will download other people's creations from the internet to populate your universe. It would be fun playing online though. Seems like a perfect game for it.

Yeah, especially when they kill them just because they think they are ugly, haha.

I'm going to remove the in game ads from this site and only include them on other sites. Did you see the new Spore video? It talks more about the space part of the game. youtube.com/watch?v=Zv6LUtjaDyQ

Haha, I'll have a way to equal out the competition. Maybe I'll have buying items only on this site in the future. The game is going to be spread around to other websites so that would make people want to play it here.

I'm going to make it 20 or maybe even higher and I might add a bomb. A bomb was one of the items that a player could buy but I took the buying out because of time. I might add it back in the future though. All my ideas are for a multiplayer version so I had to change a lot of them for a singleplayer version. I think this game will be a lot more fun as a multiplayer game.

I'm actually trying to fix that bug now. For some reason the hint arrow and the select box are being drawn behind everything. The time element would have interfered with the gameplay so removed the clocks. If the skulls were added after a certain amount of time, the player wouldn't have enough time to read and think about what specials to use. I had to think of another item after I took out the clocks because I wanted a total of seven. I'm thinking the bonuses might make it too easy though. I might change it to only add bonus points or make the player get 20 instead of 12. I also registered sworbs.com so you can play it there too.

I updated Sworbs again. This time I replaced the old one with the newer one so you can just go to the lab section and click on Sworbs. I'm probably going to make a modified version for the Wii after its done. It's playable on the Wii now but I can make the dimensions better to fit the screen.

Thanks. I hope to have it all working on Monday. Then I'll take a couple of days to add sound effects and put on the finishing touches.

I uploaded a new version of Sworbs. After you get 12 of them star things, you'll be able to pick a bonus. There are only 3 but they aren't working yet. There will be a refill all health, replace all skulls with gems, and a plus 100 (or whatever I decide) score bonus. You can only choose 1 at a time but you can wait to use it. Gems are going to be double the points but that's not working yet also. I added 2 specials but there will be more. I pretty much have everything figured out and just need to get everything working. I can't wait until it's done because it's driving me crazy

.

oh ic okay sounds interesting so this is where u meet new ppl and stuff? Well I guess I met you so u must met new ppl here!Is Aggrix a person or the site?

Thanks. I might make it 5 lives because it is pretty hard. I'm going to remove the ability to buy things and just make the gems double the points. You'll still be able to do specials though with the colors you get. It will take a while to explain so I'll just update it again soon to show you what I mean.

I've uploaded my progress on Sworbs lab.aggrix.com/Sworbs.html. You'll have to go to that direct link because the one in the lab now is still the older version. There is still a lot to do. I hope I can get it done on time. I'm not going to be able to add the things that I wanted but I'll probably add them in the future. It's still pretty basic. You lose a life if you match 3 or more skulls in a row and you can buy another life if you have 5 gems.

maybe so what is this place is it like a chat room or what?

Yeah, it will be nice to win something

. I still haven't decided how I'm going to have the gameplay. It will either be the way it is now or have the skulls be mixed in and if you get three in a row, you lose a life. They would be switchable so sometimes you might be forced to match three if there are no other moves to make.

okay I will! To tell you the truth I accidently found this place then just joined lol

Yeah, I'm going to work on it more and submit towards the end of the month.

Have fun. Hopefully I'll have something new to show when you get back.

Hey Thanx

Jas. You there? Or did you log off?

Aha I remember Reeg.XDDDDDD I have aim. My screen name is: Itz Duckeh

IM me so we can talk ;DDD

Heyy you're online don't go offline please =[

Ummm do you know why like the chat thing doesn't work??? Uhhh come on soon. And like is there a way on here we could like message instead of makin comments =/

Yupp! I'm back to stay. I'm so glad. I missed you! =D Man I remember the good ol' days. ;DD Talk to you soon.

Umm hi. I don't know if you remember me I left for a while. Actually a long time. XD Well my old user was Roxy. Ummm so yeah. I was here a long time ago. I guess that's all =/ Bye.

Block Dodge was added to the site mindjolt.com. So far its been played about 14,000 times. Hopefully that will bring some more traffic to this site. Did you ever play mancala? You might have played it on Club Penguin or RocketSnail before. I am working on my own version that I'll put up soon. Right now you can only play against yourself but I plan to make multiplayer. I also might be entering Sworbs into a competition so I might finish that before the Nake remake.

It should be fixed now. There was a bug in the code that uploaded the scores. Thanks for letting me know. Do you remember what your time was because I had to reset it. Sorry about that.

Wii Music seems pretty cool. Do you know if you can make your own little tunes? I'm with you on the Zelda and Mario thing. I don't expect to hear anything for a while.

I saw the video on the new sports game for the Wii and the WiiMotion. Other than that I haven't really heard anything.

They have other creators in the game but I'm not sure if they are going to release them like they did with the Creature Creator. Here is a video of Will Wright talking about the game.
http://www.gametrailers.com/player/35820.html
You can see someone playing with the Spaceship creator in the background.

It seems likes it. Maybe that was a test to see how they would make planets form.

I messed around with it but wasn't really sure how to work it either. I was changing stuff but didn't know what it was affecting, haha. I hope they put out some other prototypes.

Thanks for letting me know. That is pretty crazy that you might have to evacuate. Hopefully you won't have to. Be safe and thanks for the encouragement.

I wonder how the Wii version will be. I know the other versions for the cellphone and DS are only small parts from the full game. Does the $10 version include every body part?

The full game comes out September 7th. Hopefully it lives up to the hype. It's been in development since 2000. There is a $10 Creature Creator which I think has everything unlocked. I just wish they had a little more things you could do after creating a creature.

I got to play around with it and its pretty cool. A lot of the body parts are missing from the trial though. When I installed it, I chose no for the EA download manager to be installed. You might have to try to redownload and install it again. You could try to do a search for "SporeCreatureCreator.exe" on your computer if it is there somewhere.

Are you looking forward to Spore? If so, have you downloaded the free Creature Creator at www.spore.com/trial? I downloaded it but my video card couldn't run it. I'll be getting a new one soon because it looks pretty interesting.

I uploaded a screenshot for a game I was working on a little while ago to the lab section. It's more of just an idea of what it would look like. I'm not working on it at the moment but I thought I'll show it to you. I was thinking it would either be a team multiplayer game kind of like Tankies or a survival game where you have to keep your tribe alive for as long as you can.

Right now I only have a few designs but they aren't finish. I'll try to upload pictures of them soon though. They aren't related to the site but I will have ones that are.

Well if you ever want a free shirt, just let me know. You can think of it as me paying you to advertise the site

.

I could try to get you a free shirt for helping me with the website. You probably have to open the .smc file with your emulator. It will probably be in the file menu and say 'Load Rom' or something similar. If that doesn't work, what emulator are you using? I could try it out myself.

I haven't been working hard on too much lately but I have been working on some little stuff. I changed the way the server handles the information it sends and receives which I think will make the chat have less bugs and make future multiplayer games faster. It's been off line for a while though because I need to get a new wireless card. I also starting to redo the way the chat looks. I put a image of it in the lab section. Other than that I just been messing around with some shirt designs. I'll probably use CafePress or something like that to put up a "store" for the site. I'll soon start working on the Nake remake again.

Thanks for the link. That will definitely come in handy.

You're welcome. I'm glad you got it working. GTA IV is really fun. I think it is the best GTA game yet. I think the physics are what make it fun. The multiplayer is great too when it doesn't lag really bad. It seems more violent than the other ones so I am waiting for people to blame it for their stupid crimes in real life, haha.

You can probably download everything that is on the disk from the Linksys website. If you have the model number, I could help you find what you need to download. It should be somewhere on the router.

Is the password for logging into the router to change its settings? If so, there should be a little button on the router somewhere that will reset the settings to their default values. You might have already tried that but if not, that might work.

That's strange. Did you try to leave the password blank?

What kind of router do you have? Does it ask you for a password when you try to login to the router?

I haven't played it yet but I want to. I just got a Xbox 360 and GTA 4 so that has been sucking up my time, haha.

It's doing pretty good. I've been working on the server for the chat and future games. Hopefully it will work a lot better once it's done.

Was that supposed to be a joke? That's what a lot of people are saying but it seems they put a lot of effort into it just for a joke.

Thanks for letting me know. I knew it was down for a while but I thought I got it working last night. I'm not sure why it keeps going down but I'll try to get it running again.

That's ok. I'm glad you got a new computer. It was too quiet around here, haha. Nake should be the next game I update. I'll probably start working on some old stuff again like Tankies and Ormy and make some prototypes of other ideas while working on Nake though.

Never mind that last comment. I think I fixed that probably but discovered a new one.

If you are still on, could you try to edit your comment with the smilie and tell me if the smilie is replaced with a =.) (without the .) or if it is something like img src=...?

Are you using the Wii to access the site? I added a smilie to the comments,

. That is the only one for right now. Type =.) without the . to make it appear.

Thanks. I thought the PSP would have a little trouble. When you added a comment, could you do it all within the profile page or did you have to go to a different page?
