I've been really considering taking on a hobby of writing a game. And since I love fantasy and real history, I thought it would be cool to set it in a real time and place, but add fantasy stand-bys like magic users and monsters (because magic is just cool and monsters add fun variety). I therefore t...

What would ya'll like for another BT style game?

If another BT clone came out, what would you like to see? The same formula of Dwarves, Gnomes, Elves, Humans, etc, as Warriors, Monks, Rangers, Wizards, etc, taking on an evil wizard? I thought it might be cool to see something a little different, like maybe a historical setting with all humans taki...

How well did DW sell?

It seems like there would be a market for this kind of old-school game. Anyone know how many DWs Shifting Suns sold?

I surely will if I do. I haven't even toyed with GM yet, so I might just be talking out of my butt. :lol:

Speaking of "Warrior's Tale," anyone ever messed around with the program Game Maker? Looking at the screenshots and manual from Warrior's Tale, it looks like it could accomplish everything Bard's Tale was and more. Plus, it allows you to avoid the extreme limitations of BTCS, and perhaps s...

Well maybe I'll look into it. But if I can't make my shape-shifting druid and dual-wielding samurai, then I just don't know why I should bother. :D

Ahh, well. :( Making custom characters, spells and items is my favorite thing to mod.

I've already started making notes for a mod. But I'm wondering about the capabilities.

For DW, can you make new races, classes, spells, weapons, etc etc.? And can you modify existing classes etc?

And is it a major pain to make a mod?

Sweet. Looks like the party is still on. Thanks for the replies. Also, it looks like Origen recreated BT1 with Devil Whiskey?

Yo, all! And - Anyone know of reskins of the old BTs?

I hope I'm not too late to the party. But I recently started up BT1. Last time I played it was, like, 1988. I swear, this game still rules. I can't turn it off. I'm currently mapping out the sewers. Anyway, though, so I was delighted to see a newer version of a classic. I hope DW isn't a dead effort...
