Awesome little puzzle game called Turnacle is free today (down from $1.99). You spin discs with quadrants of colors on them and match them. Really pretty UI.

Could be a rare treat from NimbleBit making a game that involves some actual gameplay but I won't hold my breath.

Letterpress chat: I was playing against a random opponent and I managed to spell the word triclosans. The player resigned the game and I got a thing in my notification bar from him calling me a cheater. Does anyone know how to send texts or messages like this? Because yeah, you're so smart if someone spelled a word you didn't know it automatically means they're a cheat

How are Final Fantasy I and II? I feel like a grindy JRPG is a good fit for the mobile format if the controls are done right. Are they decent ports? Do you get the whole game for the purchase price? Any damning flaws, like problems with multitasking that would cause you to lose progress? Do the fonts and UI have retina graphics?

Oh my god I just got addicted to Game Dev Story, and I'm stuck  how do you get more points towards innovation and realism etc, and I seem to hit a ceiling with my staff 50-55 on graphics and sound unless I hire some outside guy for bajillions.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Knowing absolutely nothing except those screenshots, it looks like a medieval Call of Snakes. I remember grabbing it when it went free and it was certainly fun for the hour or so I played it. I was about to say that, too. Call of Snakes is dumb and entertaining for off and on, once a week play. But Call of Snakes with a wizard? Count me in.

VideoGameVet posted:Bocce Friends, formerly Bocce-Ball, is now multiplayer You know, I actually downloaded this being a fan of the sport. A suggestion: how about implementing some physics into the game? Re: Nimblebit's new game: It seems to be a rehash of the Nokia snake game which is clever because when have you seen a worm game with RPG elements?

marshmonkey posted:It is inspired by call of snakes, but with a lot of additions and things we did differently that turn it into its own beast. Never saw that game from them. I thought about redoing one of their other games before, Finger Shot RPG. They're great at coming up with games that are really interesting, but screw up in some way or another. Almost good games that take a sharp turn.

Dvlos posted:Oh my god I just got addicted to Game Dev Story, and I'm stuck Making things that match well ups the level as you do it more and more. Also there's a bug where if you do the most expensive talent hunting it will sometimes not charge you the contract fee for the hires, meaning you can get top-quality people without paying anything else but their salary when that rolls around.

My favorite custom title of all time is still "ROME DID NOT HAVE ROBOTS, FUCKWIT." At one point I knew the story behind it but it's funnier without context. e: Also I can neither confirm nor deny that custom titles were readily given for posting in the early days of the Diablo 3 auction house trading threads.

If we speak the Name That Shall Not Be Spoken - He Who Developed 100 Rogues, Lord Of Dinofarm - maybe we could get a few 100 Rogues avatars in here. ... though I still sometimes play 100 Rogues. I mostly don't get the hate. By no means my favorite roguelike, but the options for roguelikes on iOS are still pretty poo poo. Shalinor fucked around with this message at 00:01 on Jan 30, 2013 |

Sounds good in theory, but fitting it into mobile play patterns is another thing altogether. Zaga33 and Dungelot seem to do them very well.

I quite liked Sword of Fargoal, but the lack of depth eventually turned me off... and it was still a bit too in-depth to really capture casual audiences, most likely. I'm hoping we eventually get Desktop Dungeons or Dungeons of Dredmor.

It probably has a lot to do with how gently caress up it was at launch (at $5.99 if I remember right), which was a shame beacuse a bunch of people were so hype for it thinking the ios was finally going to get a great roguelike. [e] I remember downloading it again a few months back and getting annoyed that the 2 other classes(out of 4) they said they cut due to time constraints were only available if you gave them an additional $2 apiece on top of the $6.
