Life of a Mobster (WIP)

Aww @Lucid being mean and taking our fun complaining about so many bugs away… alas I think my heart has broken

@Lucid thank goodness you’ve resumed this project with your writing skills and this genera I think the game will be great!

Can’t wait

@Scrivener No worries, it’ll still have lots of bugs to be found, I’m sure.

@TheCourier I never stopped. November and December were great, but January and February were down to a few hours a week. That really makes it drag along slowly. But these three days of full time writing is helping a lot.

@bezment78 It’s a different genre. I think there’s a huge market for fantasy (my own favourite). But crime and violence? We’ll see. :slight_smile:

Okay, all edited and the save system is complete. I’m still going through stats, which is taking longer than expected but is extremely necessary for balance.

Let’s see, I have a few hours left today. Hmmm, it’ll be close. Beta might get pushed to tomorrow though, we’ll see.

@Lucid, I just wanted to say I loved Wizard and that game, along with Dragon, hooked me on COG(and hosted, I lump them all together)to the point that I started writing my own. I’m sure you hear it often, but I’m pretty sure you brought a lot of fans into the COG food.

I look forward to snagging Mobster when it’s released. And I do think there’s a market for crime stories. Lots of folks like learning about the seedy under belly (as a former prosecutor, I was always questioned by friends/family about cases).

@HornHeadFan I’m glad you liked it and I hope you enjoy Life of a Mobster, when it comes out.

Well, I’m behind schedule. :slight_smile: I guess it was too ambitious to hope to finish all that in 3 days. I got a LOT done. I’m halfway through balancing the stats, which translates to making sure the difficulty is set right. Not too easy, not too hard, and certainly not impossible. :slight_smile:

It’s going well, but after 7 hours or so, I’m exhausted. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of focus. But, I should find some time tomorrow. I still want to Alpha test it a few times, but not until the balancing is done.

Beta tomorrow night? Maybe? :slight_smile:

@Lucid I hope so, but take your time we could wait, so dont overheat yourself :slight_smile:

@Lucid Or go as fast as humanly possible and drink 2 gallons of red bull and some 5 hour energys to get some energy and pump that baby out! Or do what MaraJade suggested and not destroy your intestines :smiley:

Here we go! All ready for Beta Testing!! :slight_smile:

Is just like to state that I loved Life of a Wizard and Paradox Factor. And that I really, really can’t wait for this!

Thanks! I hope you like this one too. :slight_smile:

I got some awesome news. My very talented graphic designed has agreed to do the icon for Life of a Mobster! :slight_smile: He’s awesome. I suggest the ideas and he runs with it. I’ll share it on my Facebook page when it’s ready.

Awesome!

Coool.

Sounds pretty awesome.

Still up for recruitment chief

I read the beta test was over. Congrats on that! I am looking forward to checking it out.

Good news, everyone! My graphic artist has completed the images for Life of a Mobster and I’ve completed the screen shots.

Looks like the tentative June 13th release day is still on track. :slight_smile:
