Tooth, Claw and Brains |
Notes from the development of a casual MMO with monsters at toothandclawgame.com |
If you’ve been mucking around with the current Alpha version of the game (and I use that term very loosely since there’s not much of a game there), then you might be wondering what the future holds.
So, here’s the plan: There isn’t one.
Yep, that’s right. We’ve venturing into the abyss together. The great unknown. We are all nostalgic about the game that was, and it will certainly influence what happens now. However, this is a different game. Different things will happen.
The best part?
You can make a big difference in how things proceed. This might become the most awesome-ess game evah! or it might be a big snooze-fest. But I bet we’ll have fun getting there.
The more vocal you are about what’s going on, the better. As benevolent dictator, and sole implementor — I will make the final call, but you can ask. My seventh grade math teacher always said, “The only stupid question is the one you don’t ask.”
I’m trying to get a really good handle on the chat/map update before moving on with more complex game mechanics. Although, the simple aspect of “claiming” a space has opened up a portal to a world of gaming possibilities — some of which Tyler helped flesh out. Thanks, man.
So, please keep hanging out. If you don’t want to email me, then just say something in a space — I review the logs pretty regularly for issues or problems.
Play on, my friends, play on.
