Bay 12 Games Forum

I got the game as a B-day gift from a friend, and I have to say:Bravo.
I had a blast, the game is still very,very rough, but it's incredibly enjoyable. I can only hope people ignore the boneheads. There seems to be one user who is particularly obsessed with shitting up the games community page.

People really need to learn to Google shit, before throwing their money at it, if someone knew anything about the game: They would know its not finished. Don't get me wrong, there are quite a few legitimate complaints, but it seems the complainers seem to fall into three categories:

People with legitimate complaints(There should be some indication the game is playable, but not really "finished")
People who saw the people with legitimate complaints, and realized they could have a nice crusade against the game.
People who can't read, and as a result, can't play the game.

Today, at 10:00 Am, I will have managed to not die for 16 years in a row.

You finally find the source of the fighting, your hatchlings are restless...
The bugs attac with stingers out, their carapaces are yellow and black, and the sport two massive spear thingies for arms!
You encounter:
X3
What will you do?
What will Hatchling 1 do?
What will Hatchling 2 do?
What will Hatchling 3 do?

Throwing my keys into the hat if anyone wants 'em.

You decide the search the plains, with newborns in tow, for mice. However, the monsters seem to prefer small insects, too bad they won't eat the stingy bugs.
The time for you're contest with Rock draws near, and you arrive to find a rather nervous looking Rival.
I bet you didn't catch anything! BEHOLD THE MAGNIFICENCE OF THE BEAST I FOUND AT THE BEACH
Clenched in Rocks hand is a...a..fish with an old mans jaw?

Bacul..Bascu..in..., the beast cries out. Gasping for water, biggie fish can breath like you, but you personally think they prefer wet places.
You laugh and show Rock you're three beautiful babies. Rock shakes his head.
You win.What shall we call the tribe, oh Glorious leader.

Why have one egg when you can have 'em all? You manage to snatch 3 of the eggs, you better scram before mommy comes home.
....
After you finally come down the mountain you can barely hold your excitement, and the it appears the eggs can barely contain their contents either.
3 of these pop out
You sit and watch the newly born monsters nip at each other, the display warms your heart. Suddenly, the hatchlings look to you with helpless stares. They must be famished. You can't let Rock see you with starving Pokemon.
You need to find some food? What do you feed the newborns?

Just wondering when you said

Beach! Catch a magical carp!

Which would make a interesting story of a loser and his loser pokemon losing but then latter finding their inner power and turning into a giant dragon worm thing. But it won't win the first battle.

It really isn't relevant now, because it looks like mountain hunting wins.
Rolling for encounter potential. Whats happening is that I select 6 pokemon that you can find, and use Random.org to decide what you can encounter. You rivals starter will be decided using the same method, but with Pokemon from the "opposite" area.

That bird seems pretty scary. You think its wearing a goddamn skull.
Well?
Oh! That scary bird gave you a good idea! You see things like that all the time,and quite a few of them look like they're good fighters. You and Rock could try to catch one to decide who leads the tribe!
You want me to try and catch those HUGE things? You're out of your mind! But I'll do it, but you better obey me when I win. We'll return at sunset to see who caught the better...better.. What should we call these things? I know we'll call em Pokemon. You got to decide the contest, I get to decide what we call these things.
Well that sounds fair.
Remember. We meet at sunset, don't wuss out now!
Wuss out!? Wuss isn't even in your vocalbulary. You gather some supplies(A wooden club ,a net, and a large half eaten berry. You didn't eat half of it because its pretty bitter.) You think about some places where you can find some pokemon.
Let's see...
There's a mountain about a mile from here, smoke occasionally rises from the distance
There's a beach where you like to find pretty shells
There's a scary forest forest filled with stingy bugs, and you could almost swear the plants could move on their own.
