LIFE

I hate to break it to you, but not one non-linear project has been released, so you have to work hard on this one. Please.
 
It looks alright, but when stretched to size it may look a little... pixelated? It'd be best to make one with more variety in colors.

Question: Is this world map going as a mini-map? Or as a large world map.
 
I played games like Oblivion which had all sorts of choices and stuff, even KoToR had a lot of decissions. I never played the games back all the way through a second time, but KoToR I played about halfway through as good instead of bad like last time.... Good got to boring for me.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out more.

Btw finish your website soon so I can put it up :P

Yeah, I'll finish my website soon.

Also another update - One of the pixel artists has been removed from the project.
 
Is this similar to The Sims, in which you cater to you character's needs?

What is the time setting?

The "Dark Warriors" sounds really lame, you may want to re-think that.

This does look really cool though, good luck!

1.) No, it's not like the Sims. This is original.

2.) The time setting is about... 40 years into the future?

3.) Also, I forgot to remove the Dark Warriors. I just this minute wrote them out.

Thank you for your reply.

Like hunger, thirst, and stuff like that? Huh, that's a good question...*pokes Boon*

And I've got another one! By any chance would one of the features be the ability to own/buy a house/property? Or at least choose where you live? If so, I call dibs on some lake-side foresty location! XD

Gimme a Volcano Island Beach and a Bahama like ocean anyday.
 
This game has great potential, but what would also be pretty neat is if it had online play or an online scoreboard. XD  What I mean is, if there is a buying property thing, the more points you have, the better the property you can own.  This is easier said then done of course, but since I was reading about Netplay Plus today... I think it's 'possible'.

Okay, I gave the story a re-run to make things more clear.

Also, I might introduce a "meeting place" where people can connect and talk. It would be difficult, the server would be hard to get... though.
 
i don't want to bust your bubble or anything, but i bare bad news, there is alreaddy a game like this, by the sims makers, with the same title practically,  its called ''Sims life'' and its the same as your game, you play your character from child to man and so on. getting jobs, getting girls, playing around

i'm surprised you didn't see it when you were searching to see if the game existed, it came out Feb. 7. 2007

Of course theres been games similar to it (The Urbz, Sims Busting Out, Sims) made by Maxis. And yes, I did see it.

But it isn't the same as my game, as you don't play from child to man in this. It has a basic storyline that you roughly follow, although so many variants, and this game has an ending, too.

I may want to stress that this is NOT the Sims, or anything of the sort. You don't have to attend to your needs like the sims games.

Also, about the title thing. You could somehow say that http://www.bitstorm.org/gameoflife/ is the same as this game, for the title.

Don't post this shit in my thread.
