So..what is this game about? It seems a bit like settlers but some explanation about the game would be nice ^^

Man, this guy's not even going to pretend he'd also like to partake in our community. He's literally just here to advertise to us.

I seriously think we should consider putting a stop to this sort of nonsense. There aren't a whole lot of fora out there that are tolerant of this sort of thing.

The game is still very basic without much gameplay.  I'm trying different stuff
to see if anything turns out fun. Currently, I'm building caverns for the guys
to explore. Really, waiting for a good idea to hit me.

Grakelin
Well, I play Dwarf Fortress. I hope thats enough to be here.

As long as the developers stay active on this forum, I don't mind them advertising their game.

The username "GreatOakDev" does not inspire confidence that this guy is going to either stay active on the forum or use it to discuss their feelings about Dwarf Fortress.

What then, you want to disallow lunatics to post a thread in other games until a day has passed from the creation of their account?

THat would certainly stop the damn cataclysm mod spammer.

To the topic i return (Yoda said) : I am sorry, but since you didn't put any effort into the first post, your presentation is a bit repulsive. Thusly i doubt there will be a lot of interest.

I think you have built some cool tech but it seems like you don't really have an idea for a game. There are a handful of folks on the forum who have been or are actively developing games. Perhaps they will see this and want to team up with you based on your skills. If that interests you I would suggest giving as much detail in your OP on the systems you have already implemented as well as what you think you could implement.

Other than doing that, it is rather unlikely that this post will garner much attention since you don't really have a game, just generated terrain.

defending the op here, a video is worth a thousand words.

[JohnieRWilkins]

I don't like videos. Please edit the OP with a good description. I'm not interested until that happens.

^ to most of what's been said. OP, if you don't care enough to make a good post, I don't care enough to click the link.

[My Name is Immaterial]

A video is like a book: you have to open it. The Internet is too lazy for that. Screenshots require less effort on our part.

[Svampapa]

I know I'm like twice as old as the average internet user these days, but fuck me. Too lazy to click a youtube link? This world does not deserve internets.

Get off mah lawn!

I was so disappointed when I realized you didn't mean settlers of catan.

From what I saw of the video it looked like some form of racism simulator.
