/og/ - Other Games

Now this is not quite a game, it is a chat client from 1994 similar to Second Life. It is one of the very first 3D chat clients out there and surprisingly, the servers are still up.
It recently got a lot of attention for it's out dated graphics, eerie music, strange worlds and most of all, very weird regulars who have been online for years, organizing events and contest as if nothing happened despite the client being almost deserted.

I made a thing.
Not very long or difficult, more of a test and made to kill some time. Should be easy to finish in about 10 minutes.
It's called Orpheus.

Your name is Dan, and you will bring your beloved Lily back.

It's my first game, and it's not a big deal but I thought I should share it anyway.

I'm sure you all have played "You Have To Burn The Rope" by Marzapan. If you haven't, take two minutes out of your day and click this link: http://www.kongregate.com/games/Mazapan/you-have-to-burn-the-rope.

A lot of people complain about You Have To Burn The Rope for being too short or too simple of an experience. It really is simplistic, and according to the creator, it is meant to be. While that is true, there is a possible interpretation of the game that might make you look at it in a different light and perhaps give you more enjoyment out of its 2 minute-long playtime. That alternative interpretation is as follows:

You Have To Burn The Rope is about a video game hell.

Or, at the very least it is about a cyclical, Sisyphean game with images and themes of torture, descent, the occult, and repetition.

Note: You don't have to believe, or even like everything in this interpretation, but it does make the game a lot more interesting.

TL;DR - You Have To Burn The Rope alternate analysis

I've recently been playing Anodyne. It's a fantastic zeldalike which appears to draw some amount of inspiration from Yume Nikki.

When I read about it I decided to purchase it immediately. I think it was about $8. It's on torrents too though, if you're cheap.

This is apparently a Homestuck fangame for someone's shitty fancharacter. I don't play Silent Hill, but from what I've heard they put in so many references to it it's not even cute or funny any more.

I dunno, it seems kind of sloppily made and stupid but you guys can decide for yourselves.

hey. I created this game like few months ago, i released it on a forum, it was liked. I released it on my facebook, my friend liked it.

I kinda want to show it to you guys from ubuu, cause i love ubuu.

It's not an rpg maker game, it's not an esoteric game (except if you can get the subtext.)

It's an action game that mixes platforming with brick breaker. Also it has lots of tits and beards.

Hope you'll like it, ubuu! even tough it's full of bug.

so,I saw some talk about second life from the Worlds.com thread and I dont see a SL Thread - and i dont know where else to put this so here it is.
I talked to my french friend about Yume Nikki whom is on Second Life. After a few months of not speaking to him alot I decided to check his store and,well: look at these.
I think I converted him.
Anywho,this is what I'd like to say:
-Like the items? Go find them in his marketplace at https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/2100 . Most things will be under $1 US dollar,so its not too much.
-Be sure if you wanna write a review, don't be an asshole. Be fair about it. If you don't say why something is bad we can't improve on it.
-Yes,we know about Monoko's shirt. The thing is the way the switch work cant switch the shirt texture unless you use something like RLV viewer.
-Yes, we know Monoe's is horrid. She was a first attempt and is why shes damn-near-free. ($L1)
-He's a furry. Thats Second Life for you. That should be expected by now.
-Helping him with stuff like feedback and supporting this project can help get more things,like: Masada,16 more effects for Madotsuki, Urotsuki,Sabitsuki,and more. Maybe even a YN Sim in the future.
and finally,
-Mods,if you find a better place for this thread: By all means, place it where-ever. I only put it in /og/ because its Second Life and not a "true" YN Fangame. More of a YN Fanclub thing..but its not off-topic either, so I had no idea where it goes.

turn the lights off. watch some dreams. turn them back on. repeat.

I'm putting together a youtube based vlog/podcast kind of a thing dedicated entirely to indie games. My team and I will be both lets playing and having shows about the larger titles and tiny unheard of RPGmaker games. We'll be reviewing, analyzing, and interviewing devs and people who are in the community.

So if you're an indie dev, semi-known LPer who dabbled or dedicates their channel to indie games, OR you've contributed large things to the indie gaming community, we need YOU!

We also are open to suggestions of indie games and things to discuss.

If you are interested, add me on skype or steam at:
bleepbloopbleep

The project is still in the developing stages but we already have some devs lined up and are configuring the format of the show.

Cat Planet is always related.
