I havent seen any gameplay yet, but i already know this game will scare me more than amnesia. I will dream of evil pigwizards gront

[Matz05]

The sad thing is that we don't find this absurd. Only a mildly amusing exaggeration.
We have obviously become desensitized to bad games.

[ukulele]

The only thing i find strange about this game its that it didnt found an AAA Publisher yet.

[LeoLeonardoIII]

Should sell it on the Origin service.

[nenjin]

This game needs a Kickstarter.

Apparently the work of the Evil PigWizard was due to Jansenn Helger, nephew of Anders:

(Anders probably won't appreciate this, but here he is as well)

Great news everyone!

I was torn about how to bring this news to the fore, but I suppose I better be "serious", at least for now.

I am currently attempting to bring CAULDRON OF LOOTS to life using RPG Maker.

Admittedly, the gameplay will be rather... different... to what Anders envisioned the project as... although his low quality of production allows me to make very bad pixel art pieces and pass them off as genuine (no offense Mr. Slesvig.)

I'll be uploading a few images soon!

[Frumple]

... well, it being rpg maker means the chances of me playing anything that actually appears is somewhere roundable to zero, but despite that, good luck? May you produce something of similar quality to what was promised.

Incidentally, if you're looking for a perfect venue of distribution, you should put the game into the wild as a CD sized .iso, filled with a bunch of random folders either empty or with scratched up programs that don't work, and then the game itself. Add an appropriate pop-up screen at some point in the game and you'll be able to really capture that old shareware junk CD feel, which would possibly be something of at least as much merit as the game you're setting out to make

This is a skeleton. It has bones and stuff.



This is a Bulkhead - the medieval equivalent of a successful jock, I suppose.



Here we have a Trifling - a race of people about 3 feet tall who respond to accusations of dwarfism or stupidity with violent tendencies.



Aaaaand the Trifling Commando. The elite of the Trifling forces, the Trifling Commando completely overrides any benefit from his Camo headband by wearing a very regal suit jacket. ARGH! MY KNEES!



And finally we have the Climatomancer, someone who, despite being able to influence the weather, has no better forecasting abilities than Michael Fish.

[Wysthric]

A few more designs.



Dude's a Vike, basically. Midgame enemy.



And here's Armoured Bastard - not sure whether to make him a Boss / High Tier enemy or an NPC yet.



And an evil cultist - midgame enemy with magic spells to toast your nethers.



SNEHK ISSSSS POISSSSSSSONOUSSSSSSS

Plus I started working on porting stuff over to the actual game engine today. Wish me luck, and together we shall discover the true meaning of LOOT!

Anyone got any suggestions, I'm all ears (after my latest Boost Hearing spell went awry!)
