First game is Mirrors which is a puzzler/platformer where all you have to do is get your self to the end or mirror self to the end and the game will be 60 $ and the game can seriously get tricky but hints can be handed in some situations and it keeps it self new and introduces new elements every couple of levels. It is 2D and uses basic sounds.
Wondering if we should just make a new thread because no one posts on this one, and I find it too complex just to be something as simple as this.
Should I?
I’d rather not start over, again. This is, what, the third GDTRP thread I’ve joined? This one is good, let’s just stick with one instead of jumping ship and resetting every 2 weeks.
Or just do whatever and I’ll sit out. I think this is my last RP thread, so if it dies I’m done.
That is kinda my thought also and i know Macdon went away due to exams. so lets just continue for now. and sure it is complex, But so far i think this has been the best RP so far, just that it seems most people doesn’t seem to post much just like waiting their time for someone else to jump start it.
To whom should I send info for my new game? Is Macdon still checking on stuff or is he too busy?
well he said he wanted me to take over until his exams was finished but so far i do not know his rating systems and hwo to calculate sales, But i will nag on him and hope he sends me that info.
Hahaha all right.
I am here
I had a cool idea the other day (I think it’s cool, at least) for a spinoff series. I know the thread is a bit slow now, but I’m hoping it will pick up again soon. In the meantime, I thought I would bounce this off a few of you now instead of springing it later.
Strange Pony Tales is a series similar to, but entirely different from, Astrid’s Pony Tales. SPT games lack the storybook framing device used in APT, are darker in tone, and have more mature themes. The SPT series would be aimed at teenagers and young adult gamers, as opposed to APT’s intentions for a general audience. The setting (and architecture, clothing, etc.) of SPT would be more realistic and modern (but with colorful talking horses and goblins because I’m weird).
To compare the concept with a real life series: if APT is a more kid-friendly Final Fantasy with ponies, SPT is Shin Megami Tensei: Persona with ponies (which is also where I got the idea for the title; the Japanese version of the Persona series is called Strange Tales of the Goddess).
By far the biggest distinguishing factor is that the APT series is exclusive to Horse-Drawn’s hardware, but I intend for the SPT series to be multi-platform. I actually did this on a recent play-through of GDT (APT exclusive to Vena consoles and later Playsystem 1/2/3 then eventually Gamewagon, SPT released on Nivento consoles and then multiple consoles when the research unlocks) and thought it’d be fun to bring into the RP if anyone else likes the idea.
So, who wants Strange Pony Tales on their console?
Since things seem to be tiring around here, I’ve decided to make an article my priority. It’ll concentrate on the gaming industry gossip and opinions, generally advice and reactions to some of the decisions you’ve made so far.
I need one thing though: Is there any games on Gamercon besides Adventure Sands? If not if @LineLiar wants, I could retcon it to be only released recently to:
- Be more realistic as no sane console manufacturer would go that long without releasing.
- Be fair since he was missing for a while.
- Spice up the console war.
@apljee What would you recommend to remove/add/change in your opinion? Myself, I think the info is too unorganised or badly laid out. I’ll try revamping the OP to explain the info easier and simplify it. Wonder should I start a wikia to organise the different sections? It’d only be a few links and less intimidating, the readers could choose which section they want and it’d be easily broken up.
What does everyone think of these suggestions?
Having a wikia sounds cool.
As far as I know, wiki has forum support. We can just do this on there, considering it’s called “game dev tycoon rp”
Alright… I think I’ll give up my place because I don’t really have the time for this as much as I thought. I could always leave in a RP way if that’s needed. 
Perhaps a Sega? Console business bankrupts you due to bad management and you decide 3rd party is the way to be?(Allows you to enter again if you want). You could think of an excuse to flog the console rights to someone else to pay off debt or something (Has that been done in real-life before?)
It would save us from bundling all info into two threads, we’d still use this as a sign-up thread though.
Depends what others think.
