RE:Saytr Studios

Well, we don’t have much details but we’re hoping for a game that is based on Monster Catching. It is not the same as The Monster Summoner, because we’re looking for a real-time battle where players can bash as many moves as possible into the opponent. It’s directed to younger players but I guess it’ll be good for all ages, though. (Although mature players probably won’t buy it.)
Ideas we’ve got so far:
Nanonet (The basic net for catching monsters)
Micronet (The 3rd best net for catching monsters)
Meganet (2nd best net for catching monsters)
Masternet (The best net for catching monsters, impossible non-catch chance.)
Real-time battles that add more challenge, players play as their monsters against enemy monsters and other monstercatchers
151 monsters, including 11 ultra monsters, which are rare monsters
18 different categories for monsters

I hope you decide to give us a license, wether for free or paid, for the SilverGear.

To Pixel Studios

Dear, Evan

The Licensing cost is 70k, though we could lower it if we could make some sort of deal, and I like your idea of catching monsters, though I did want to continue the Ojara series for another two games. If you have any sort of deal to lower the cost then so be it.

Sincerely,
Alexander Chaser, CEO & Head Developer
Draconic Games

P.S: Bail Obviously told me these details!

(@apljee LOL 151 monsters, I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE!)

(@apljee Don’t you think that’s a blatant rip-off of Pokemon? It would probably be best to ask @MacDon before going ahead with that idea.)

(@Twyster I thought you had to go and deliver papers mate! also Apljee is offline)

((@Twyster and @Aragon450, I’m back and also I already did ask MacDon. He said it was a pass but I could improve on making it more different. I’ll work on that later.))

Game Giant Magazine

Review of Big Murder Matic

This game is a huge case of wrong time and place. While parents are looking to get games like Quest of Minmus and Horsepower, “BMM” is aiming for a demographic that doesn’t exist: 18+ video game players.

Please people. There is no such thing as an adult who plays video games. The oldest people I know who ever played a game played Pong in a diner back in the early 70s. There is no 18+ demographic, and I’ll eat my underwear if there ever is.

Regardless, it IS a fun game. Running around shooting innocent civilians is the most fun I’ve ever had earning myself a ticket to [heck]. (editor’s note: No swearing, guys! Kids read this magazine!) And the driving system is surprisingly responsive.

Unfortunately, it was a little TOO fun. Fearing for my sanity, my editor and boss collaborated to cut this review short and destroy our review copy of the game. I assure you, I’m not about to go onto the sidewalk to run people over next time I drive to work. Believing that games can influence someone to do those kinds of insane acts is itself insane.

Final word? Buy a copy for your kid’s 18th birthday, several years in advance. He’ll appreciate the gesture.

Final Score: 8.0

(It’s the 80s. Of course he’s going to make a stupid bet that 18+ gamers will never exist. :wink: )
