What a silly little game

I have to say, that's looking really nice. One question - what's the color depth? You gonna be able to have 16 bit (or higher?) colors, or is it all a 256 color pallete?

mmmm oldschool

, i hope the story line and playability are through the roof

I don't give a shit about storyline, I just want gameplay to r0x0r. Map Editor+++++

I'll make my own storyline.

Can you imagine Fallout 2, exactly, except with Akimbo Plasma Rifles and Super Duper Power Armour? I GUARANTEE Spazmo wants it.

If you want to make your own storyline, why aren't you hard at work on the FO2 editors?

I'm not leet enough for those.

There's 16-bit color support, but I'm a crappy artist.

And NukaCola's jokes suck.

Oooh, im kinda dizzy.

Looks cool though. Keep up the good work.

Actually, I haven't imparted any of my razor sharp wit on this thread....yet.

I'm really looking forward to this. I hope there's an easy map/dialogue/everything editor, as my skills of a programmer are along the lines of nothing.

Now it's kinda better.

Wow, way to double post.

Doesn't look that bad.

I'm really looking forward to this, ApTyp. Keep on going strong.

Mapper and tile editor are already here, and easy to use unless you're trying to do something the game wasn't designed for.

Beautiful. How hard would it be to edit new weapons, and perhaps make new character sprites?

ApTyp · Post by **ApTyp** » Sat Jun 21, 2003 9:23 pm

Should be mind-numbingly easy. But don't quote me on that since neither character editor nor item editor are even in development stage right now.
