Gauging interest for an ASCII game...
« on: January 24, 2012, 12:14:48 am »

Yeah, just got ASCII draw, or whatever the program is called, been practicing a bit, seems cool.  I'm just wondering how to save the pictures, and then how to apply it to a thread. 

I'm thinking of making a forum game based off of the Ozymandias one.

Alt+Printscreen and then pasting into paint.net and cropping and then upload it to tinypic.com and post the forum link (with the tags) here was how I did it.

Alright, I see how to do it, now I wanna find out if anyone actually wants to participate.  I have a few ideas:

Martial Artist-esque game

Classic style RPG with lots of classes, and choices

Something else. 

Which one seems the most interesting?

Martial arts sounds pretty cool. I could definitely get behind that.

Or you could press printscreen (without alt), then open paint, (instead of paint.net) then edit> paste, or ctrl+ v,  crop, save to computer, upload to tinypic.com then post link to images full url on the forum between img tags
