Teh Candy Man
« on: June 12, 2011, 11:24:49 pm »

Well my chronic summer boredom is beginning to set in, and I am debating whether or not to resume my programming one final and turn it into a fully fledged text based game...  Odds are I will.  If I do would you crazy community people be interested in providing feedback or maybe even helping out with the source code?

Details-
Teh Candy Man is a text based game(once i finish rounding out the framework it will actually be a game) set in an alternate past, where the United States has outlawed sweets.  It's a parody of the war on drugs as well as several games that revolve around dealing drugs.  The main character is in staunch opposition to the use of drugs, but is forced into the lesser (in his view of things) crime of peddling sweets to (insert plot here). 

Teh Candy Man is written in Java (because it's not memory intensive enough for me to use anything else lol) and is hopefully going to be an  entertaining experience.  By entertaining I of course mean offensive to more conservative values.  Anyways it's late and I am going to start to ramble, so provide some feedback, checkout the game that is my inspiration, Druglord 2(it's a really small game, but kept me entertained for large quantities of time) and uh point out my terrible sentence structure so I can come back when I'm less tired and fix it.

-Love Tyrius

PS.  If you would like to work on this with me (once I get my source code looking less sloppy) post something to do with it here.  If you decide to bail afterwords thats alright too, the game is going to be open source anyways.  La la la I'm going to go cook some top ramen now, so peace till next time guys!

The murders are for their own good. I regret none of them. All were sound decisions made to balance the scales in favor of prosperity.

Sounds like that television show a while back where the UK had outlawed chocolate.

Most of the time when someone is described as politically correct they are simply correct.

Unless you really want to, might I suggest using Inform 7, since then it can be read by many different IF programs.

Ha ha that looks kinda cool and I might just bookmark it, but the foundation is already close to being set up in java.
