alanschu Posted June 1, 2013 Posted June 1, 2013 My friend showed me this. It starts out hilarious, and ends up being quite deep. I really enjoyed it. Free download. http://paperdino.com/games/save-the-date/
alanschu Posted June 1, 2013 Author Posted June 1, 2013 Rock Paper Shotgun had an interesting write up here: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/05/30/wot-i-think-save-the-date/ Has some spoilers, but if you don't care to play, I do recommend reading up on it. I was able to find a way to "win." Not sure if it's what I was hoping for though... >.>
babaganoosh13 Posted June 1, 2013 Posted June 1, 2013 I remembered seeing the tab there yesterday on RPS. It seemed kinda funny, but I didn't know it was only about 5 mins.... and free. I'll try it now that it's the 1st int. Thanks! You see, ever since the whole Doritos Locos Tacos thing, Taco Bell thinks they can do whatever they want.
babaganoosh13 Posted June 1, 2013 Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) That literally took that much time to load up the game and kill her. EDIT: Oh yeah, and reload up firefox and type this. EDIT: If Chris Cornell made it, where's the Soundgarden music? Died twice now. EDIT: And again. Let's face it, it's called natural selection. Game's back on.

alanschu Posted June 2, 2013 Author Posted June 2, 2013 HAHA nice. I am curious if it was made by THE Chris Cornell. I'm guessing no, however
babaganoosh13 Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 (edited) I wonder if one of the ways she dies is in a blood ritual? Does one of her deaths leave her in a Jesus Christ pose? Can she get sucked into a black hole sun? That one's super unknown. I bet she will choke on a spoon, man. Will she die when a bad motor cuts her finger? Probably. Will she die of gangrene from a rusty cage? Are some of her deaths more nefarious? Will someone hang her on a pretty noose? Will her body draw flies? I wouldn't take her to a casino royale.

babaganoosh13 Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Someone named Eddie Vedder should make a video game as well. Then those two could collaborate and make a big open-world explorer like the Elder Scrolls. Just like TES, if you steal something, the text appears as red on the screen. You have to either use those yourself, or sell them at an appropriate fencer, because regular stores wont accept them. The exception is bread. The text for bread will always be white, no matter how it came to be in your possession. The game doesn't mind you stealing bread. It will also have a hardcore mode like New Vegas. If you haven't eaten in a while, your character will say in a deep voice "I'm going hungry!" When you are near death from starvation, your character will scream it instead. Keeping yourself hydrated is a bit trickier. You have to carry around a magical cup with you at all times, and if you overfill it, then it doesn't allow you to feed on the powerless. Okay, I'm done now with the Chris Cornell references. I'll save ya the search to get it out of your head.

Rosbjerg Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 "You didn't even get to the date.. and it still ended in disaster." Tough game.. Well, that was my fault, I tried to go all clairvoyant on her. This is a great game.. Especially when it breaks the 4th wall so to speak.. Thanks Alan. And it actually gave me goosebumps.. I'm officially impressed. Fortune favors the bald.
Hurlshort Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 I had a blast with it as well. I didn't try hacking it, but I was pretty satisfied just calling off the date in the end.
babaganoosh13 Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Hacking it? Go into the Game directory. There is a txt file telling you how to do it, or just use Notepad to edit I_AM_A_HACKER.rpy, and change $ I_AM_A_HACKER = False to $ I_AM_A_HACKER = True Capitalization is important.

alanschu Posted June 3, 2013 Author Posted June 3, 2013 Yeah, the moment the game broke the 4th wall I was in stitches. It's absurdly meta. Has some interesting thoughts about stories in general, and even how it is that we approach completing tasks in video games (and even our compulsion to win). It even makes fun at itself for its absurdity.

It even makes fun at itself for its absurdity. Yeah that was the exact discussion that gave me goosebumps .. Questioning why I choose to continuously be the cause of all this death and then when she knows what is coming, accepting fate.. That was seriously a ****ing well written moment, I was in awe. The Groundhog Day reference was spot on. Fortune favors the bald.
