ARRP HYPE THREAD!!!

[guest509]

  It is nearly upon us! Less than 2 weeks away! Triple exclamation points!!! ALL CAPS!!!

  What are you looking to put out? Nothing? Shame. Something? YAWESOME!!!

  I'm looking to put out a follow up to the critically panned GUNFIST from 7DRL 2010. It's an arcade shooter (Think Berzerk) with roguelike levels. Currently it's in the nonexistent phase of coding.

  GUNFIST: GAIDEN is the title [All caps. That's right. It's that awesome.]


  So what are you putting out? Hype that shit!!! <---triple exclamation points.

LEFT FIELD HOTEL!!! Hopefully it doesn't come out a complete failure!

All sorts of good things coming from all sorts of folks this year---both already on the list at the Roguebasin page and otherwise.

The total surprises out from nowhere tend to be among my favorite occurrences.

So what are you putting out?

NPC. But it's going to take at least 6 months before first release.

[Jolly Roger]

Oh yeah! Future ARRP would be real feast for roguelike fans!

[Krice]

I think ARRP actually slows down releases, because developers stress about deadline and then just give up entirely and eat donuts.

[guest509]

  Krice. Full of positivity, as always.

[Hi]

Also full of donuts.

[guest509]

Just a few more robots I cooked up. Still working on movement. Probably wont' make the AARP, but I can try.

Less than 5 days left, everyone!

I have been working on the user interface and trying to get proper inventory (picking up, dropping, wielding weapons and drinking potions) finished for the ARRP. Picking up and dropping is already working and basics of the UI are in place. The whole thing has to work with both mouse and keyboard and in a way that xPadder can be used to play game (still haven't looked into how to integrate joypad support).

I've been improving the engine stuff mostly. Expect bugfixes, better performance and balancing. Lately I've gotten lazy and haven't done as much as I used to. I hope I'll manage to implement full mouse support by the ARRP.
