Dinosaurs

Got the silent assassin. Hardest part was figuring out how to get the disguise needed so nobody but one guy knows who you are in the church.

Missed the first two elusives before I bought the game but I like the concept. Hope the next one is harder.

I don't think they need to particularly go anywhere. They've put out a pretty complete version aside from missing a few assets from the games.

When I think of a Metroid Maker as you proposed; people would want to make a full game. It would be tough to make a little Metroid section compelling. You'd want to design an entire map and flow. Unlocking abilities and all that jazz. I don't think it would hold much entertainment if you could just select the available power-ups for your section and have it be much fun.

Making dungeons in a Zelda game could be alright but they'd have to really work on boss options. Also Zelda games are pretty meticulously crafted where you can't use a key on the wrong door. I feel a lot of dungeons would be near unbeatable because you don't know the order of operations even if it wasn't intentional.

Complexity is what could really ruin the whole prospect. People already complain about complicated and trolly Mario Maker courses. I'd be 100% interested in whatever they came up with for this kind of thing in the future but for now I feel it's best left the way it is. A fun little one off.

Made my first proper level. I tried to make it a fair regular mario level but I'm no designer.

@nakiro I enjoyed your second level. Had a good progression to it.

Picked this game up last night. Not happy with the mechanics changes to Super Mario World.

So when I couldn't make the level I wanted because of the changes, I made something rude. Sorry.

Seems to be a smart move in favour of the customer and Gamestop. What kid on Christmas wants to rip open a PS4, turn it on and have nothing to play because of how shit PSN is. Modern video games murder data limits if one is restricted by them. The people with great internet won't be affected at all, other than having something to play right away. If the space of a physical game case is just too much for you and you want to live an all digital life, just leave the disc in the system and forget about it. I think this is a good move for Gamestop.

I did up a post on another forum about this and figure I'll put it here as well. Information contained in here could be wrong so don't take my word for anything but it's how I saw it one morning at 4:30am. Includes end game spoilers.

I have no idea what creativity is

You could possibly look into doing things that teenagers and kids would do. If you have a lawnmower and a small trailer or truck to haul it, you can set up schedules with people and make some seasonal side money. A lot of retired folks or veterans can't or just don't want to maintain that stuff.

A more costly endeavour would be snow removal if you lived in the climate. Grab a snowblower, make appointments. People who need to go to the office don't want to have to wake up and shovel their cars out at 6 in the morning and that's where you'd come in. You wake up super early, bang out some driveways and have the rest of your day open.

It's the season where people need fences painted and that sort of thing. Don't mind a shitty job? Try pet waste removal. Get a paper route.

And saving the best for last. Lemonade stand.

A year and a bit ago when we lived in Syndicate full time I decided to go fr a little trip. There was a long string of systems that had one way in and one way out. I decided I should check out the biggest "pipe" I've ever seen. I put a cloak on my ship that did not allow warping when cloaked just ot ensure I could make the trip relatively safely.

Kite Co. at this time was in a place of boredom in a sense. There was not much going on, leadership was trying to make events for people to log in and have fun flying spaceships. It was then in the mumble comms chat I pipe up saying "I'm trapped in this system, they're camping me. I could use some help."

Thus began operation Saving Private Densae. Kite Co. scrambled a fleet and headed out to my location to bust me out of the danger. I was sitting cloaked in the system, with all the exits covered by my enemies. They verbally harassed me trying to get me to fight a one sided brawl. The systems local chat was getting "heated" with gifs.

I kept them talking. Knowing my friendly fleet was right around the corner. As a little too much time passed for them to be interested, Kite Co. fleet didn't make it in time before they got bored and left. They couldn't have been more than a few jumps away. Our fleet decided to chase them, we had nothing to do anyway.

Unable to catch up with my captors everyone did have fun banding up to complete the objective of saving my sorry ass. Taking the long way home, we found our fight. Two Dominix ships jumped through a gate out fleet was sitting on. Dominix's are battleships. They take a lot of damage and dish it it out well with drones. Our fleet was comprised of Cruiser class ships. We could attack their drones, and also apply enough DPS to take them down while sustaining casualties that were likely to be half of our fleet.

We engage them and realize something interesting about them. They were spider tanked. Meaning the ships would link up and send repairs to the one that was taking the brunt of our DPS. This made it harder to kill them, but it gave them much less attack power against us. All we had to do was apply damage, and send our drones to kill their drones. They had no way of warp scrambling us so we were free to warp away to safety at any given moment.

This all resulted in a great impromptu, fun night that netted us two rather large kills at the cost of two very small losses.

Thank you for Saving Private Densae.
