Tautologies are also very cheap these days :) It wasn’t meant to be an attack, I’m mostly wondering about the motivations.
It takes a huge amount of work to make such a game, even if everything goes perfectly well. I know there are interesting technical challenges in the game and there’s potentially a lot of money and other motivation, but I simply can’t image myself working hard several years to create a virtual environment where you can throw shit around and watch women explode because of alien insemination. (This is a simplification indeed, but the point should be clear.)
Would you invest the time and effort? If yes, why do you feel it’s worth it?
- catch23 15y agoThe legendary Carmack has been working on a game called "Rage" for the past 6 years. Six years ago, iphones & androids didn't exist. Game developers do it because they enjoy it, even if the hard-core-games tend to make less dough than games like angry birds or guitar hero.
- samth 15y agoAnd if they're building a game full of misogyny and shit-throwing "because they enjoy it", that's somehow better?
- JabavuAdams 15y agoHey! Misogyny is bad, but (virtual) shit-throwing is just funny! Angry Turds for iOS. Coming soon. It's a steaming-pile of gaming goodness! Development was tough. We had to push and push, but we made the drop. EDIT> I'm just glad to be done with development. Now I can spend more time at the pool, with the kids. EDIT2> So, apparently someone already made Angry Turds for iOS. I'm not affiliated with them in any way.
