Experimenting with google app engine, and using it to make a game.
The idea is to use this space as a devblog, and track the game through it’s life-cycle. Judging from my previous gaming attempts, this life-cycle will be extremely short.
Here’s the idea:
 |
| scribbly ye axe |
It’s sort of like the slow-form simple strategy (and backstabbing) of Neptune’s Pride…
 |
| Neptune’s Pride |
plus the dungeons and random potions and scrolls of nethack…
 |
| Nethack |
plus multi-player tactical gameplay ala shining force, or x-com, or GnomeSquad?? (just throwing it out there!)
| Shining Force 2 |
 |
| GnomeSquad |
plus the asynchronous nature of mobile games like wordfeud…
 |
| Wordfeud |
Plus… oh hey did I mention the backstabbing? Anyways, that’s it for now. Hopefully this spot will show the game as it progresses from “back of a letter scribble” to “hey this is a cool game you can actually play”. Wish me luck.
