In most turn-based RPGs the enemies and bosses are at a fixed level, this can make your game too easy. For instance, you could build up to level 50 at the beginning of the game and kill everything easily. In Zombie Hunters the Game we have added dynamic difficulty. Monsters and bosses scale with your level, give better loot, and keep the game consistently challenging.

The level cap in Zombie Hunters the Game is 250 so you hard-core players that have to completely decimate a game and max everything will have your work cut out for you.
This is literally a script or two he probably got off RMRK.

And I like he assumes that because a game is made, it will have "hard-core players". I have finished playing maybe 2 RPG Maker games, and that number isn't going up any time soon.

Well the reason an RM user would implement it is to keep from having to come up with enemy types that appear as the player progresses :ssh:

So, is this what happens when you qualify the gently caress out of something to make yourself #1 at it, and it's still kind of a stupid and unquantifiable thing? Or is it a prank Steam ID?

Not the most epic thing, other than I can see the problem in only offering you product in ever increasing amounts as your pledge rewards as a one man operation. Guy probably looked at how many salsa jars he'd have to ship out, and immediately threw his keyboard away and ran from his computer.

Hey guys, we're not animators at all. Give us nearly a million dollars Nearly $100,000 to make a 7 minute Youtube flash cartoon based on an idea we literally stole from Tumblr, 1/5 of which is purely going to merchandising. Also, we've bullied plenty of animators off the project, and we're not even paying some of them. But that's okay, they'll get exposure. Also, one of our screennames is "livethefaggotry" so we're good people.

There's a really big deal with this on tumblr. Among other things, one of the people behind it(with the livethefaggotry URL for their store) also draws underage rape porn. Which, uh, is probably not a thing you should be doing while doing a kid's show.

If it had been American police that bear would have been shot dead and the cop would be given a month's paid vacation as punishment when the photos went viral.

WOW...so it seems that someone has pledged £35,000 to fully fund the project....This is insane and amazing however it seems a little suspicious and after looking into it, it seems that a little bit of credit card fraud might have happened.......Although we do not endorse credit card fraud it is amazing that a fan would do this to see more Don't Hug Me I'm Scared! We really do love our fans. However it is very likely that this funding will be removed so please keep pledging and don't be tempted to remove your pledge! We still need to get £35,000 of genuine money!

I hope that all is resolved quickly and we have alerted kickstarter to investigate further!

Thankyou crazy fans!

Have you ever tried to play your Dota 2, get your dota duders in the lanes and click the things, only to find that someone on your team isn't as good at clicking the things? Well, here's a kickstarter for you: a third-party banlist!

DOTA2 In-Game Banlist posted:

This project's goal is to create a downloadable application designed to allow users to avoid bad players in the DOTA2 community by using Steam API's to safely create an in-game blacklist and whitelist.

Users will be informed in-game if the Steam ID of any players are on the blacklist or whitelist. You can select to instantly leave games if users on your team are on the blacklist. By leaving games instantly (during the load screen), you do not receive an abandon. Users can submit replays for review to add new players to the blacklist. Users can also appeal blacklist judgements, and be removed from the banlist.

There are 2 levels of Whitelist, and 3 levels of blacklist.

Whitelist level 1: You were whitelisted by an admin. You are safe from blacklist level 1 reports.

Whitelist level 2: You purchased Whitelist level 2, or were whitelisted by an admin and have a solid game play history. You are safe from blacklist level 2 reports.

Blacklist level 1: You were instantly blacklisted by an admin without evidence submitted, or were reported by a user with very little evidence.

Blacklist level 2: You were instantly blacklisted by a source admin, or were reported by a user with solid evidence.

Blacklist level 3: You were instantly blacklisted by a God Mode admin, or reported by a user with solid evidence, and have a long history of feeding, griefing, or very poor play.

Whitelist Level 2 is the $8 pledge reward, while each admin level is a pledge reward: $25 for basic admin, $100 for source admin, $500 for God Mode admin.
