  1. Adding my top score from 0-to-X: 10876 (X), though I know others have gotten the 2X
  2. Damn, because I put all the hyperlinks in the word version
  3. Also you can’t underestimate the power of me causing something weird. If it’s any help, my affected threads are made from me making the lists in word and then copy/pasting into here.
  4. And to the opposite of what Deadeye is seeing, I’m told some of my posts are showing black text on black background in dark mode. Any suggestions to remedy?
  5. @TheNew8bitHeroes I’m primarily here to compile and promote. I believe there is a distinction somewhere and I think there is a line to be drawn, though I am not savvy enough to be the one to decide where it goes. You’ll notice I don’t include the label to Mystic Searches or Mystic Origins because since you built those tools it isn’t the same as where others use it. Same with applying it to your other projects like Gamer Quest, Troll Burner, and Stellarator, it’s not a distinction to use what you yourself built. I’m grateful for the debate unfolding on the new thread, and hope that some kind of consensus is reached. If we can find agreement, I would happily reevaluate where the label, if one is kept, is placed. As I’ve said, I didn’t make the label as an insult, you’ve built something big and a lot of cool stuff is coming from it; and a label is as much a promotional tool so newbies can see what is possible and make their way to you to try out NESmaker.
  6. It really depends on the mechanics of the game for me, and what are the frequency of needing various functions. I look to the evolution of the Dragon Warrior/Quest games for reference. The “stairs” option was hilariously tedious, and “take” was duplicative when “open” did the job just as well for treasure chests that you had to stand on. Which brings me to another point, some functions are so common that a menu option is excessive: being able to talk or open a chest by walking up to the person/treasure and hitting A made more sense than opening the menu to talk or open. Dragon Warrior I also had a door function, and Dragon Warrior II made you use the specific key to open a type of door, whereas I believe future games just made opening the door automatic if you had the means to open the door. The same applies in planning a menu: figure out every action that can be performed, figure out how some can be collapsed into one another, and identify which actions are so common that it shouldn’t necessitate menu access in the first place.
  7. And if there’s consensus about drawing the line there, and developers let me know, I am comfortable revising my lists accordingly because at least there would be an agreed on an consistent application.
  8. I’ve put in a note in my edit corner to clarify my thoughts, but to restate it here, my label is not meant as a denigration but an opportunity to promote games and connect them to NESmaker while promoting that as well. Every game with that label as promoted itself with a #nesmaker, including Mugi.
  9. As long as you intend a cart run and have pre-orders at some point, you’re good! After that I’ll move you over to the Almanac. In the meantime, promote away and let us know when you’re taking pre-orders! I’ll add you to the list when I get home.
  10. Absolutely, I did not intend that to rush you! Just wanted to touch base and confirm all the info I had while I built this list.
  11. Got it, I’ll move it up to section two since it’s completed. I need to follow up with @SNESNESCUBE64 about a limited cart run.
  12. Bitmap said that the controls are meant to rotate and strafe, so it’s akin to Skeleton Krew http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?32900-Xeno-Crisis-new-overhead-run-n-gun-on-Kickstarter/page44
  13. I’d read another article that said the sub flipped out and cursing at the students because the class generally was being loud, and the student she attacked told her not to talk to them that way.
  14. Ordered! As always, you do beautiful work
  15. I bought one before your Kickstarter launched, so if that one person materializes or if someone else needs an SNES to NES adapter I got one to spare.
  16. I'm on-board just for the green beer, or as I'm hoping: Hi-C Ecto Cooler on tap
  17. Ooh boy, I didn't participate in it with NA, but now I get it on it from the beginning here!
  18. That's exactly the one I had in mind
