(I’m stating to notice the forum starting to derail. So i decided to do this.)

We all played GDT once(if not, gtfo). When playing, what was your worst f**ckups in GDT?

Mine is i took @Haxor challenge that its impossible to run an MMO atleast 10 years. The MMO named Pokemon NX(Creative, right?) and releasing expansion pack game after game. When nearing Y9 M5, i started to notice that the server cost got way too high but i didn’t care. I decided that i want to make a sequel to an AAA game. Thats where i f**kup, since i can’t cancel game during development. Midway development, the server cost nearly wipe out my money and i forced shut down it. The sad thing that the MMO runs 9 years 12 months. Just 1 more…

i had so little money so i decided to find a publishing deal
the one that had highest royalty was a strategy game for genesis, and it was a terrible idea, i got 3/10 for it

#5

Is it just me, or do you guys also never use publishing deals? From what I can tell, there really is no point in doing one.

#6

i don’t use them much but i think its easy money, useful if you don’t have enough fans

1st F-up: I clicked “Release”, but the game had 250 Bugs.
2nd F-up: I forgot to name my game. So it got an awful name.

What? Publishing deals are the best things to do when you are in the second office on low money and low fans!

If you don’t understand the joke, then just don’t make any comment about it.
