lol i like that, cold but true.

i remved the game because i felt after all the effort i didn't wanted to give a bad product to the people.
Some of the critiques where very useful.

I think i made a proyect too big for one person to handle every aspect of it, so obviously, a lot of individual things were half done, and mabe that's the very definition of "lame" and "mediocre" (terms used by some critiques/comments)

I have to admit that i rushed the release of the game, i knew it wasn't ready, but i thought that if i didn't released the game, i'll never gonna finish it, since this proyect took me so long to do. Imagine, one guy doind the 3d models, texturing, animations, coding, testing, design, etc...

Being a multiplayer game, in it's release, obviously, there where not a lot of people to play it, so it became clear that it would never gonna take off on it's own.

And as a final note, this will sound cliche, but regardless of what some people might think of me, i might not be the best game developer out there, but i make games to entertain people, i want people to have a good time, not a bad one.

The development of the game was a good learning experience, but i took it down to protect both the audience and my own work.

Im gonna start now a new game, using all what i learned here to this time try to make a good quality game all arround, no bugs.

copy and paste the part where i'm being childish.

What you SHOULD do is take all this criticism and use it to try to make a better game instead of whining about how people are bullying you.

If you made a good game, your game would have better ratings. No one is out to get you. Get over yourself.

so i cant criticise the critiques? you say my game is lame, and i should just agree and applaud your comment? if you criticise, you should also espect a feedback from the person you are criticizing.

is there a way to delete forum threads? i think that everyone, including me, will agree that this thread this to be closed.
This is going anywhere, the point was missed a while ago, this is pointless...

You do realise you had a flash review moderator give up on trying to explain the problem to you as you continued to treat him and others like crap because you believed your game was too good for such views? When someone who moderates flash gives you advice you really shouldn't ignore it like that.

i'm not complaining about critisism at all !! listen to what i say! all im saying is that a 1 star, for me or anyone else, is an insult. You put 1 star to things you want to be blammed. ALL i'm saying is a 1 is not constructive critisism.

Well that settles it, this gentleman is clearly the victim here. Let's all vote 5 and deliver nothing but compliments such as what a game outstanding great job go fuck yourself.

NOO dude, come one, i m not asking that. See? you dont even know what the fuck im talking about. You have the idea fixed in your head that i'm trying to get compliments!! how can you miss the point?

I'm just focusing in the specific scenario of a person putting a 1. Being that person me or anyone.

The problems of trolls didn't start until I started taking their criticism and took it as "trolling," and that's when people began to thought I was an arrogant and ignorant prick who couldn't take the littlest punch. Just listen to what the people are giving you advice on or at least don't make a big deal out of it. You will regret it.

FYI: I was ten when I did that sort of shit

again, i'm not complaining about the critics at all!! all i'm saying is that a ONE is something you put to literally shit.
You might not like something, or mabe you think something need a bit more work, then you put a 3 or 2.5 stars.

All this started because i thought that putting a 1 star was not a constructive qualification. It is a rating you put to something you hope to be blamed by the system.

I personally dont think my work fits the requirements needed to be blamed.

Also, you dont have be 10 y/o to complain about something, come on. I felt the need to express my opinion. I got terrible feedback, which even made me now think it was a terrible idea to post personal opinions here in this comunity, since it appears that many passive agressive kids are wainting for anyone to say a word to jump into a internet fight.

i feel very disapointed of SOME people here. I made the game in the hopes of helping people have a good time playing against someone and kiling some time. But so far i got kicks in the face.

Mabe i should ignore the comments, but sometimes i like to forget that the internet is filled with haters and i hope to find real people on the other side of the screen.

But it seems like "hate" is the norm, these days...

i actually find all this very funny... the passive agression i'm getting is totally understandable once you realize you all guys must be in your early teenage years.

without the need to say anything, you are all acting the same way. There's not a single person thinking on their own, trying to understand my point of view also.

That's very child like. A one sided opinion.

I dont think the critique was wrong, i say the 1 star was the sign, the prove, that the critique has bad intentions and it's not constructive. Because it is disregarding every effort i put into the game, it is throwing everything way just like that.

this has becomed a game for some inmature persons to play the "i hate your game" for no reason at all at this point.

how can you say "it is a chess game" like if that was a degrading thing? it is like saying "it is a platformer game"

HAAWW now this is turning into a "lets all bully the guy" yeah, now magically everybody call me a dickhead.

Again, i say putting a 1 to a game that clearly took an effort is being a fuking dickhead and a bully. You are putting one point above CERO, do you get that???

It is the ultimate insult. Really, and you guys are all now having some fun attacking me just because i felt a little angry because of the one stars.

I repeat. A one is one point above CERO.

if you critique saying "it could need a bit of work" and then put a 1, then you are fuking with me.

Bullying would be saying "you're a piece of shit" or "fuck you and fuck your game." Critiques =/= Bullying, please learn the difference. The one review is giving a clear reason for why they gave a low rating as does the other one.

Dude, you put a 1 to something that is pure shit. You cant put a 1 just because you dont like something. It is like putting a 1 to a perfectly good game jst because you dont like it.

The last guy that gave ma half start just mentioned the game was a "chess like"... duh, no shit. It is a gender of game.

It is like saying: "i dont like sonic, it is a platform type game.." YES AND????

Omg i just released a new game and it's being injustly bullied by some very retarded one star ratings.
I mean seriously... just check this game out and you tell me if the ammount of effort i put here deserves a 1 star:

it's like this kids dont even know how much time and effort things have...

i consider that type of ratings for the type of games i made plain and raw bullying. There's no reason to put 1 star on a game that clearly took a lot of time to be made.

unfair.

yeah... it wouldn't make sense to put so much effort on a clone... i was indeed thinking in making Days Of Blood 2... ppl seemed to like it...

back to square one i guess...

It looks like Last Stand. I think the #1 concern about it is that you're making a clone.

How come you're making a clone?

the thing is that "last stand" games are super easy to code and develop, that's why i thoght in making one. I'm currently having a big BLOCK on my head, i cant seems to start or finish anything, i had some other games i started but i quit half way because i change my mind, or diferent reasons...

I'm living a nightmare now, where i feel the need of making a game, but i dont know what game, im constantly making prototypes, sketches, etc... it's a living hell...

T_T

I posted another question about if i should keep developing this game, but here, i will ask if you guys and girls like the graphics i made for it, what do you think, do they look scary? cool?

I kinda started developing a Last Stand clone, but i recently started to have issues with putting an effort to make a game to end up being bashed by last stand fans or whatever saying it was a clone, blah blah and giving me 1 star or less...

So i decided to put that development in halt and ask for opinions... should i continue this game?

Here is a screenshot:

one issue i noticed is that i tryed to change the SWF of a game, and mabe because of the cache not updating instantly, i thought there was an error, but then it solved itself, mabe when the CF cache updated.

So it's a thing to have in mind when making changes to a game or movie, there might be a delay between the time you click save/publish and the time it actually updates the thing.

LOL!!!! nice one! I had that same idea but i thought that mabe i was sick, glad to know there are ppl out there that thinks the same!! im not the only one!

What do you prefer in a game?

A) A game with a lot of violence, fights, killing.
B) Or a game with just fun activities? running, jumping, traveling.

What do you think it appeals to you more? If you had two games, which one would you chose first? A or B?
Both games would have the same level of graphics, sound, etc... it all should boild down to the theme.

apparently it fixed itself, but it's still a mistery.

And for the record, i did attempted:

- deleting cache.
-uploading a diferent file.
-renaming the file

Nothing worked, but then, i cam back to the site and it was solved.

Mabe Newgrounds has an internal cache system? a CDN type fo thing? and i had to wait till the cache for my zone refreshes it?

who knows...

Are you clearing your cache and reloading the page after publishing changes?

yes, i did that a million of times, i tryed also renaming the file, trying to make it have a diferent size in KB, but nothing, the site keeps pointing to the old version.

I have a game that im trying to update, i upload the new file, click publish changes but i still see the old version.

Is this a common issue? a bug? what? anyone knows?

yeah, thanks, i know, i'm back to the design table, trying to find a new style. There's no pointin making suck a big effort for being called a clone... so let's see what i can came up with... ~scratch head~

Actually i know what i want, but it's hard to make the translation from your brain to reality, lol.

Also, ever heard of commas? I haven't seen so many ellipses in my life.

actually, i dont have time to lose on a forum fight, so decided to let this thread die and just ignore the lack of empathy that striked this post.

I will be needing medieval battle type of music. But i dont want to bother anyone yet because i want to have the game complete before asking for collaboration.

Eventually, i will ask for music, and voice actors.

lol, no. But i was inspired by it. MMhh.... mabe i should pick another less cartoonish style, if it looks so much like it...

Hey, this is a screenshot for the game i'm working on. I need words of encouragement and/or critisism.

Do you like what i have so far? It is a castle defense type of game. It's still in a very early stage, i just made the background to see how things are going, if they will work or not...

I'm doing all the coding and graphics/illustrations.
