Hey Alex,

Just a question if your not having coins, how will you produce profit from the game?

There will be coins, just no buying them. You will get coins by playing mini-games or if you have membership you get a certain amount of coins when you login each day.

FAIL!

Also he could try a EVE online style economy.

If he's using someone else's PC, there is another problem there. The slow communication would result in numerous client server timeouts.

If you haven't properly coded the server in handling client timeouts, due to the slow connection; or lack thereof.. you're going to have a wide range of exceptions being thrown that are unhandled.

Plus the slow datalink between someone's house and the rest of the world, just isn't sufficient for a game server.

You may think this game will fail but it won't. U haven't seen much at all. Were also working on a brand new site which will be finished by saturday. We hope the client and server to be up monday.

I can tell why you think it is crap and will fail, but it won't. Our client and server is nearly completed and will be done in about less than a week. You haven't seen most of the art, and pretty much everything else.

Here's some information about the game: Our client is coded in Lingo and server is coded in Visual Basic.

I'll be posting more information soon. Sign ups will be up in a couple days, so stay tuned.

"About less than a week" - how old are you? :S

Either..

"About a week" or "Less than a week"

There will be coins, just no buying them. You will get coins by playing mini-games or if you have membership you get a certain amount of coins when you login each day.

What is this? Bloody neopets?

What is this? Bloody neopets?

Ouch..

[Colin-Roberts]

Alex, maybe you should listen to people that have an idea what there talking about, Dentafrice knows what he's talking about..

[Jahova]

I await the client release on monday. Let him proove us wrong

[AlexanderJJJ]

Closed alpha sign-ups are expected to be available this saturday.

All we need left to code is:
*Bots
*Adding in a choice if you want to be a female

We than should be ready for our first release.

The purpose of the game is for you not to waste your money on some fake coins that only give you a piece of pixel. I think it's worthless and I'm guessing most everyone else thinks so too.

Btw, I'm 14, Dom C.
