I wasn’t originally going to announce the release of this version as it really doesn’t add a whole lot to show for the player. But I didn’t want people to think that progress wasn’t being made towards this game. Admittedly I haven’t worked on it as much as I could have (curse you Guitar Hero 3!) but I am working on it at a snail’s pace.

Download: version 0.2

In this version..

- Started the “new game” function.
That means the player can click on the ‘new game’ menu option and it, gasp, works.

- Added the ability to name your character name and the character’s class name
Once the player clicks ‘new game’, a keyboard pops up on the bottom and allows a 25-character player name and a 25-character class name. The class name has no effect on the game itself, just like the IRC version. It’s just for looks.

- Added the save function to the game.
After entering the class name it’ll save what the player has inputted and kick it back out to the main menu. TO BE ADDED: a “are these names okay?” type question before saving them.

- The main menu will now tell you if there’s a game to continue (won’t be grayed out)
If the player’s card allows FAT, it’ll be easy to confirm if the player and class name saved correctly because “Continue” won’t be grayed out anymore. The continue option still isn’t clickable but at least it’ll let people know if it’s saved right.

I don’t know when the next update will be but it should contain at least the start of the actual game. So until next time…..

I decided to start working on the game a little earlier than expected. I wanted to get some of the more basic stuff out of the way and start a menu. I’m kind of proud of the end result considering I’ve never really touched C before this.

The screens are a little bland but considering the original version of Idle RPG is ran on IRC, which is text only, I don’t want to make it too flamboyant. Keeping it simple to pay an homage to the original and to try to keep the size of the game down.

Kon’s Second Song: Jolly Roger Military

The awfulness continues! I had Kon the C# Chatterbot write some more lyrics and put it with some more awful music. This one is a 58 second long metal song entitled Jolly Roger Military. Good luck understanding SHOUTY (the name of the voice) in this one.

Kon’s First Song: Yo Dawg!

What happens when a C# Chatterbot writes a song? Well, I’ll tell you this: it isn’t a masterpiece! Using my C# Chatterbot, Kon, to write all the lyrics and the tone of the song, I have created an awful 52 second-long “rap” entitled: Yo Dawg! Click here to download it I would say “enjoy!” but [...]
