The Bay 12 Games Report, October 1st, 2010


Mission Status (Threetoe):

Mighty hands built this tower, reaching high into the heavens, attracting all manner of colorful birds.  Its bright stones can be seen from a hundred leagues away.  Who built this monument to excellence?  It was you!  Your generosity is the pond from which all true effort flows.  Lift up your head, and see the vision of the future.


Programming Schedule (Toady One):

This month we're going to add some fun things to adventure mode, probably involving getting the adventurer back out on adventures without worrying quite as much about large rewrites to the underlying structure.  This will entail questing after some new threats more easily, some places to trade objects again and getting better reputations with civilizations to enhance those processes.  More or less the standard RPG stuff from the dev page to get the ball rolling, up until there's a releasable game to work with.  Clearly there are some new and old bugs on the table as well.


Fun with Numbers:

Thanks everybody!  It was a good month.  I mention this in the soon-to-be-edited-and-released DF Talk 10, but there were many times last month where a supporter replied with surprise at learning there are little rewards for contributing, so I thought I'd bring them up here as well since we seem to be failing to promote them.  If you contribute, you can pick either an ASCII Art Reward or a Crayon/Colored Pencil Art Reward.  An ASCII Art Reward is basically a mini-Threetoe story (examples) and a Crayon Art Reward is a crudely drawn scene which we sketch, color in, and mail to you, anywhere in the world (assuming your contribution covers postage, which is about a dollar almost wherever you are).  We take personal requests for either reward as well, he he he.  You can also be listed among the Bay 12 Champions.
