26829th poster gets a cookie (cookie thread (Part 7)) (Part 11)

giab is currently working on an incremental game instead of chapter 3 so it’ll be a good long while before then
at least a few years
there’s still chapter 2 and frostborn wrath, plus the steam collection got qol changes and a performance upgrade so now your gems aren’t frame capped i think

scroll down until you see the icon of a box, clicking it downloads a zip that contains every (free) game they’ve made, plus a full version of labyrinth. just drag the swf you want into the flash player

Thanks.

I haven’t even considered to check the publisher’s site.
Somehow I always thought they were part of kongregate… (the two ads always played side by side, anytime I booted up gemcraft… I never put together that they are two different teams.)

to solve the issue of spks in mashes simplifying gameplay too quickly and leaving the game without guidance they should do a 50 player leviathan game

as for how we make the game, uh, still happen without the driving force of the night kills? i don’t know we’ll give the villagers fucking Old Balloonist and see if that helps

if i was consistently killed n1 in mashes id hate them tbh. Honestly maybe I only like mashes bc my semi retirement takes me off of peoples radars. I got n1d (usually storngmanned) in like every fol mash before my yearlong break in 2022-2023. And I didnt care that much for mashes then.

felt especially bad getting a good role. I feel like nobody should be actively upset they randed a fun or useful role because it means it wont be used and will hurt town to have on your slot.

the problem is that there’s like, a WIFOM-based mechanism that makes strong player kills a lot less of a “you are percieved to be competent and ergo you don’t get to play the game” in regular games because in even like, a 20 player game it’s much more reasonable that a player would have threatening opinions on the gamestate as a whole

mashes have comical levels of social complexity that it is impossible to deal with in the timeframe they’re played in, and whenever you ask a player to deal with huge amounts of unparseable complexity they just go out of their way to use as simple of a stratagem as possible. lot easier than actually trying to calculate the best n1s in a mash and probably coming to a list that’s like 2 names different

i’m a lot more experienced of a game designer now thanks to my adventures in clocktower and my chipping away at a murder mystery interactive novel in the background. i still don’t know how to make this problem less intractable
