Go home or I'll stick you with my sword...'til you go...'Ouch I'm dead!' Ahahahah (hic) See? Ain't no one gonna be messin with old Benny."

Heh. Yahtzee is always good value!

 

(Hang on - no Dark Mod shoutout? Bastard. :P )

My games | Public Service Announcement: TDM is not set in the Thief universe. The city in which it takes place is not the City from Thief. The player character is not called Garrett. Any person who contradicts these facts will be subjected to disapproving stares.

He's a hella busy man, with better things to do than google "THIEF REMAKE OMG HAPPY DAYS" Chances are he hasn't discovered us yet (Or he can't/shouldn't/doesn't want to mention TDM in his magazine article.)

I love that this guy is famous - he's a local, and actually has been around our office a few times to test our games with other members of Australian gamer.

 

In case you guys aren't aware, they are making a new gaming show in Australia

http://www.gamedamage.net/

You can watch the pilot episode there - he is one of the 3 guys hosting the show.

Here's the youtube link, some people have had trouble playing the vid directly from the site

 

Also, as an added bonus, me and my co-workers are in there for a split second!!

Jump to 0:24:50 and watch from there.

That's me jumping in front - I had the idea to jump across the group like an idiot, and they liked it so much they got me to do it again till we got it right.

You can see our studio logo overlayed over the top, Halfbrick studios.

 

 

The guy is pretty cool - he's actually nice when he takes his hat off, and by that I mean when he isn't putting on the cynical facade, which is almost NEVER :) but he does such a good job of it anyway. In one of our post-game test interviews, one of the questions was "Would you buy this game?" and he answered "Yes. But then again, I'm disgustingly rich."

Does anybody have a download link? I can't get the flash to play, my 64bit just refuses it at all and my 32bit laptop shows a black square :(

It's not bad, I could see it on G4tech tv but those halo scenes irritated me!

 

I loved it as always, but the Heavenly Swords one is still my favorite;

"But I'm going to be seriously pissed off if twing-twang isn't some cutesy euphemism for lesbian cunnilingus; Yeah I WENT THERE" :laugh::laugh::wub:

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

I loved that little graphic of the cathedral that was getting kicked down the steps when talking about how the mission layout went to hell in T:DS.

 

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought T2 was the best of the 3. I love TDP of course, but TMA was just too much fun.

Couldn't agree more. I just loved the steampunk architecture in T2, as well as the robots etc

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
