Dead Content [Full Game]A letter from Room 13

sounds like hotel dusk crossed with 1408 lol will download it and see what its like later

 

[kaze950]

Lol yeah, I immediately thought "1408" when I read this project thread.

And just for the record, in real life, many rooms are square >_<

 

[Xilef]

I fixed some of the event errors.
Such as: You could pick up some of the items as much as you want. When you walk into George's room and talk to him it can glitch. All bugs reported are fixed. (Thanks to Ratty)
download new version
I've never heard of 1408, what is it?

I agree with the SilentAlarm, the mapping isn't very excellent. Try to work on that. However, the story seems good, but the atmosphere could be better if the maps were better.

EDIT: The new version is better, keep up the good work!

 

[Xilef]

Yes, the new version has fixed everything reported and has improved on the real mapping problems that silent alarm stated. (The rooms are still square)

Oh yes, did I say this project took me 2 days?

 

[Cruelty]

to be honest, i think it sounds like a pretty ambitious(?) idea. kinda like a 'this games takes as long to beat as you want it to take (but still relatively short-which is cool, we dont get enough of that round here).

i'd play the demo, but I dunt have rmxp at the moment. is it a standalone, or wotwot? aaalso.. is it a hystery or horror themed game? cause methinks it'd be rather impossible to capture fear with the cutesy rtp. @__@

btw, I loved 1408.

 

[Xilef]

It wasn't intended to be horror, but if you want it to be a horror then it will become one and it isn't standalone unlike my other projects. Sorry.

 

[Cruelty]

hope i didn't offend with the horror comment, i wasn't trying to. :}

this thread needs moar standalone =p

 

[Xilef]

You could just install the rtp and then it'll work :p

 

[crispychaney]

i had a play and i think the lag is generated from having your entire game on a single map lol
personally i think this is a bad idea, my computer is pretty fast as it stands but the framerate was still down. you may wanna consider having lots of different maps instead of one large one, will speed up your game no end

 

[Xilef]

I have absolutely no lag, I', running vista which takes up cpu like there's no tomorrow with 1gig ram, but it runs fine with me. My computer's pretty much the modern average.

 

[Diedrupo]

If this game has lag on you, you probably should consider getting a new computer or upgrading.

 

[holloway]

If Vista has lag on you with 1gb ram, something's amiss.

 

[crispychaney]

If Vista has lag on you with 1gb ram, something's amiss.

i agree
i have 1gb of ram with an athlon processor and a geforce graphics card so if its lagging below 40fps you need to consider breaking up the events a little or using a script to limit those not in use

 

[Sapphire]

I played your game. At least a little bit, since I broke it...
I had to smile in the intro, when this big guy came out of the tiny taxi... reminded me of some clowns, which used to come out of small cars...
But the game crashed, when the guy with no hair (RTPs Blacksmith) went through the door and tried to close it and I went through it at the very same time. The door didnt close and I was kinda trapped, couldnt move... maybe you can fix this up, even though I know it was kinda my mistake xD

 

[Xilef]

Maybe you shouldn't have tried racing him? But yes, I'll edit the event so he will get through that door first.

 

[The Word Artist]

Ha, I liked the "Notes on Pulling the Sky Down" reference. :P That was a good one.

 

[Reives]

Maybe you shouldn't have tried racing him? But yes, I'll edit the event so he will get through that door first.

Eh, as the developer you should consider every possibility; blaming a player for an action that he was allowed to do isn't really suitable.
Anyhow, me like the title. Does have a similar touch to Notes on Pulling the Sky Down.

I agree, the player action is "never wrong". That's why every games need Beta Testing.:yes: Try EVERY THING possible to do, even things the player wouldn't think to do.
