I advise using katanas. Because they are katanas.

Well, I have to fix my computer first.  And then sort out the new computer system.  And then I'll start work on NPCs again.  Patience!

I'm interested in trying this out but I can't seem to figure out how to get it to work. I can't remember what the error was though. Why can't it come with a thing I double click so it runs?

I've downloaded PuTTY and stuff but I can't seem to get it work anyways. I'm using Windows, if that helps.

Is PuTTY only used for playing online? I don't care about online, I just want to play. Is there a way to just play?


EDIT: I am special

1) Be a character that is pretty much unkillable

2) Stand in acid for 1 turn

3) Game over!

Don't stand in acid then, if it can eat through metal you probally shouldn't stand in it.

Your drunk posts continue to baffle me.

See the posts above for instructions on downloading a Windows version for local play.

Oh come on, it's not THAT bad, I regularly run through the stuff, but it's rare that you're forced to.

And the game acid is Hollywoodish.  It's a somewhat cinematic game, in the sense that things are a little over the top or unrealistic at times, because it makes for exciting gameplay (see: lightning strikes)

My problem was I followed the steps and it didn't work. But that was yesterday. I tried it again just now and it worked fine.

INTRIGUING

I'll probably try the local thing anyways. It should probably be added to the first post. EDIT: Apparently the thing Head put up requires the PuTTY thing anyways *shrug*

EDIT 2: Goddamnit, when I clicked download it asked me what I wanted to download, and I kept downloading the source >_< dumb

Standing in acid for 1 turn doesn't do TOO much damage imo

After using the katana for a bit, my stabbing skill leveled up. So is it a mixture of stabbing and slashing? Because I seem to get stabbing messages more often.

Katana's use the cutting skill, but they commonly will get stuck in your enemy unless you have a high strength or a high cutting skill. So I don't suggest using it unless you do.
BS, even if your skill is zero it almost never gets stuck. Now, having a NEGATIVE skill will get you in some trouble, so grabbing a couple melee levels for blunt weapons if you insist on huge melee penalties might not be a bad idea.

Almost all cutting weapons use both, and vice versa. Stabbing is apparently a type of cutting? It doesn't make a hole lot of sense obviously, I think it might still be in the works. Basically, right now, cutting levels at half the speed (by being two skills), and I can somehow slice of zombie heads with me sharpened stick. Who knows.

It seems to do a ton more damage than bashing at higher levels though.

Well why are you telling us then. Why would we care that your character died.
