If Zoe reads this thread, she may get depressed again, which can mean Depression Quest 2 (AKA GotY 2015 according to all reviewers with a penis). Please, stop while there's still hope.

Contra Calculus posted:So is Depression Quest pretty good? I've actually tried it yesterday. Basically it's your regular interactive fiction text game, where you are presented with different choices that lead to different events. But in this game, you are sadbrains, so all choices look like that: 2) Wallow in self-pity 3) Eat all the ice-cream 4) Cry 5) Stare blankly Then I think you can actually start attending therapy sessions and take antidepressants, but I never made it to that part.

Contra Calculus posted:Yeah, I mean serious-post for one second: I was actually diagnosed with major depression a while back and that really is a bit stupid to me that depressed people are reduced to being a useless piece of poo poo all day according to this game. I was still a functional human being that worked and went to school. I felt like poo poo, but I was still capable of being productive and getting stuff done. To be fair, in the game you have a day job and even do some stuff there, but you just can't concentrate and all, so it's hard. I mean, it does portray depression somewhat realistically, but as a game it's just boring. The only gimmick it has is that the more depressed you are, the fewer choices are available to you, but in many cases it makes it look like any sufficiently advanced depression is indistinguishable from laziness.

4chan gave two thousand dollars to some charity event, where women are invited to pitch ideas for games, and whichever game wins in a vote will be developed with crowdfunding money, while all proceedings will go to charities and something like 8% for the idea ladies. Some people are mad because women aren't paid enough for their ideas. And also there is a very similar event that Zoe is behind. That's what I've heard.

Dr. Video Games 0117 posted:@DavidSGallant is also the creator of "I get this call every day", a simulator where you work in a call center. He developed this game while he was employed by the Canadian Government working in a call center, and was fired as a result due to feelings that it "potentially compromised the security of our clients". HD? What the gently caress? This game is literally made in MS Paint.  E: luckily, it was removed from Steam. Paladinus fucked around with this message at 16:44 on Aug 23, 2014 |

It doesn't mean Phil didn't do it, but he did so without telling anyone else. Just remember that he's canceled a game over twitter drama.

poptart_fairy posted:has she done any game stuff other than depression quest No. By the way, I once made a fantasy text adventure game using our internal corporate survey system as an engine (see, my artistic vision was to underline the sharp contrast between grey, yet comfortable lives of corporate slaves and magical world filled with wonders, but also with dangers). I'm pretty much an indie game developer myself, I guess. With the exception that I still have a job.

Just went and read a wiki article on Zoe to confirm she never made anything except Depression Quest."Wiki posted:In addition to her own game development projects, Quinn is also known for creating the Game Developer Help List designed to bring experienced game developers and novice developers into contact with one another. Lol, I wonder if she makes any money by being an 'experienced game developer'. People who post poo poo on newgrounds are literally more experienced. E: oh, wait. Go to her site. She has all types of games there.

Ha-ha, one of the games Zoe did was, I kid you not, Realistic Relationship Sim. http://www.beesgo.biz/dsim.html Please, enjoy. I've already beat it, but still can't open the true ending where she cheats on her boyfriend with five guys.

Oh my God, she even makes another text adventure Pacman. http://www.beesgo.biz/clone.html Just seven years after someone did it before her! http://www.pac-txt.com My pro strategy for Zoe's version, by the way, is typing 'eat poo poo' as a command.

Brannock posted:I wonder why it isn't dirty tabloid bullshit for one single person to announce to the planet that max temkin allegedly raped a woman in college a decade ago, but it's dirty tabloid bullshit to expose that zoe quinn (by her own admission) repeatedly violated her boyfriend's consent and had unprotected sex with multiple people in a short time period (and chances are good they would not have consented to unprotected sex had they known the facts of what's going on) She was depressed. This makes it fine.
