Valve have been getting a lot of shit because of greenlight basically allowing any and all games to get on Steam. They removed it, added a flat fee and all games are at least to a degree manually checked by Valve now.

It's literally on their website and several games have been rejected already.

It's about a young alien bastard trying to break out in the entertainment industry using technological hedonism through an all-controlling cult (the Technopriests) to control the population and eventually breaking out of through spiritual and religious enlightenment
The thing is, it's brought down by the most boring melodrama, very stupid bible parallels (the protagonist literally splits in two a sea of asteroids to go toward "The Promised Land") and basically everything being a ridiculous strawman and the most insufferable Gary Stu in existence (The Technopriests are literally serving Space Satan who gets offed in 2 pages because the protag is pretty much omnipotent for half of the story)

>I have not tested on a Windows 10 machine in over a year. When I threw it onto my new HP Laptop with it's own steam client, for the first time in years it showed problems with booting up and setting a full screen mode. This has to do with newer display chips actually not supporting 16 bit depths any more at high resolutions. This and three other bugs related to environment permissions all only appeared after a little testing and rebooting. I had solved all four bugs for all machines and rebuilt the executable in about 20 minutes after figuring out how they were caused on any machine and how to best solve them. Right now the game assumes that when the machine has chucked a wobbly in the most basic sense of what it permit the game to do, I throw it off to a retard ranch function where it starts asking questions like "What modes do you support at a matching ratio with lowest level depth for speed?" and then I set the mode based on that. Was not a problem for 16 years under Windows under any version. It's solved now and new build fixed all these issues.

We really should track down where Cleve so that a brave soul can go to his house, kill him and then upload Grimoire to the internet.

We know he lived in Mentone, Victoria by looking at his LinkedIn, we also know that he regularly goes to McDonalds, so I think that means that his house will probably be near to one of the McDonalds there. How do we continue from there?

Reminder that the game costs $40.

He's going to try and rake in as many /v/irgins and old school RPG fans as possible before people realise his game is a broken, buggy mess that will never be fixed because Cleve is a disgustingly bad procrastinator.

This is an unprofessional, conspiracy nutjob developer who plans to take as much of your money as he can and run.

DO NOT BUY ON RELEASE. At least wait a few days until to give steam reviews a chance to prove me wrong.

The only problem is that those aren't exactly fun.

In all seriousness, you would have to have some kind of deficiency to actually believe this game was actually going to release. He didn't release it years ago after multiple crowdfunding attempts and he didn't release it today when he actually somehow convinced people it was for real this time. Blakemore has shit the bed at every opportunity and after 20 years I think it's pretty safe to assume anything that comes out of this man's mouth is aggrandizations and lies. This was pretty much it for him as far as I am concerned. This was his best chance to release the game and still have anyone on his side. Because while I applaud his dedication to trolling people, I also think that once you defraud people like he did with his crowdfunding backers, you cross a line. Because looking back, it's pretty clear he had/has no intention of ever actually releasing this game. He has had three failures to launch on Steam this year alone.This time the game was apparently uploaded. Literally all he had to do was push a button and release it. So we can only assume a few things: 1) the game never existed 2) the game exists but cleve has not put in any work beyond the superdemo 3) cleve is ashamed of his 20 years of effort 4) cleve's ego will not allow him to release it due to fear of criticism 5) he's just being a dick 6) he thinks that this will actually drum up more sales for the finished product Take your pick. I kind of thought MAYBE this time because he evidently spent at least $100 to get a Steam page open but I guess in the grand scheme of things $100 is not a whole lot to fuck with a group of people.
>>
>>385925205
They don't have to battle with Cleve to get a refund. It's entirely up to steam if you get a refund or not.

Cleve has nothing to do with it, which is why steam refunds are kind of fucking great.

The problem with all of this is regression testing. Are basic functions already tested available 6 months later when tested on the same platform? Game companies have Q&A and testers who do nothing but check these things with automation on a daily basis. I'm just one guy. I didn't expect that a program with the most basic interface to Windows imaginable would run fine a year ago and suddenly break on a laptop with a different graphics card a year later. Nothing fancy about what Grimoire is doing. It runs great now, I tried it on an additional platform just to make sure Windows 10 is covered.

I have a question which I assure you I ask in good faith.

If you are so certain that the developer of this game, Cleve as he seems to be called, will once again fail to produce results, why do you watch and participate in the drama?

I ask this because I only very recently found out about this game. I was not an Eye of the Beholder player, and my foray into the Wizardry series was short lived because I didn't like the SF elements that were thrown all over the place. Wizardry was a damn fine game, mind you, and no gamer worth the title is ignorant of the nightmarishly vibrant BS that was the horror and thrill of playing Eye of the Beholder. I am here mostly as a veteran of the Mordor and Might and Magic series, so I have missed a story more than two decades in the making.

If things are as bad as so many claim them to be, why is anyone even here? If I pumped a well and it didn't sprout water for years, I'd have long moved on by now. Is it Schadenfreude? Is it a long held grudge over a long running chain of dishonesty? Is it a powerful display of cynicism that masks one spark of hope that maybe this will be the day?

I don't think anyone is wrong to be hostile here, given the history of the developement. I'm simply perplexed and inebriated and more than a little curious at the tenacity and dedication it takes to bare grudge of that length over an item that has yet to manifest.

>>
>>385930193
Grimoire might be a meme, but at least it has proper turn based combat instead of that shallow as fuck dance-around-in-2x2 room realtime mess that Grimrock is.
It also has far more spells, skills, crafting, etc instead of the literally 4 spells of Grimrock.

I love dungeon crawlers, but really hated Grimrock. So few spells, so atrociously bad combat system.
>>
>>385930193
Yeah its similar. The combat system takes a bit to acclimate to, The hunter and the thief start with a knife that has the exact same sprite for both but different names. The thief can throw his knife a few times which does a good amount of dmg but eventually his knife will not come back. The hunter however will lose his/her knife if they throw it.

Watching the descent into madness of that Nixheb user is really fascinating. At first he proudly proclaims to only have registered to talk about Grimoire, then as people start to doubt it's ever coming out he passionately defends Cleve. But then even he loses a bit of faith and pleads with Cleve to just please keep his deadlines and show real progress or just fucking release the game. Then after disappointment after disappointment he becomes one of his most hostile critics.

Better.

All memes aside I honestly think Grimoire is going to be a good game at least. Even though he seems completely insane Cleve is a huge fan of the genre and he seems very intelligent (in his own way). It's probably not any GOTY contender but I do think it will be something that a lot of people that are fans of old dungeon crawlers will enjoy.

I hereby propose Operation: Death by Autism.

Once the game launches, submit multiple false bug reports in the steam thread of crashes at certain parts of the game, bugs that happen if a certain sequence of actions performed, etc. Make Cleve go insane chasing false leads while trying to bugfix the game after launch.

Word on the street is that Cleve only ever tested the game on an old rig, and that it won't run on a modern machine. Valve kicked it back to him but he has no idea how to fix it, since he's a self-taught autist with no fundamentals. His spaghetti code is probably incomprehensible to anyone who isn't him (and who knows if he even bothered to comment it), so nobody can help him.

By the time he solves these issues, all of our collective consciousness will have been uploaded into the fade, and it won't be installable on neutrino probability drives.

PROGRAMMING YOUR OWN TEXT GAMES

Part I of III: Create a New World

By Cleveland M. Blakemore

Something incredible has happened to twentieth century civilization.
Literature has come to life. What was once a passive medium has now become an
interactive one. The art of reading has lent itself to genuine experience,
breathing life into surreal worlds.

This miracle has occurred through the wonderful medium of the electronic
computer, a device almost everyone in our culture now has access to. Due to the
advent of a piece of software called the text adventure, the reader can become a
part of the story itself. The reader is now the protagonist and determines the
outcome of the book, choosing from a variety of climaxes and conclusions that
the writer.programmer has prepared in advance.

The problem seems to be that while everyone wants to know how to write text
adventures, there is an inadequate dissemination of the information required for
programming them.The three-part series of articles beginning this month is
written for average to advanced BASIC programmers who are interested in creating
and playing full-length text games that they have designed, either for their own
pleasure or the enjoyment of others. The three programs accompanying the
articles in this series range from tiny miniadventures to sprawling epics.

>>385934540
He's waiting on Valve, what would you do, stare at the submit button all day waiting for approval?
>>
>>385934540
Maybe he just have to wait that steam approves the package
That could mean that he fucking stopped to change his game non stop
>>
>>385934519
Most of the books I have seen on text games frequently use a very simple
collage of print statements and GOTOs to replace good programming logic. This
is not practical for large projects, and is a poor way to learn programming.

Using the modular approach described in this series, you should be able to
create and debug a full-length adventure game in about 30 to 40 hours of
programming time. Later, you will find that it lends itself easily to expansion
or modifications.

All text games have a simple structure, the same for any game:

* Get the player's input
* Analyze his input
* Take the correct action
* If the player has not won then begin again at step one.

>>
>>385934732
Since the structure and algorithm for every program is identical, you can
start work on a new game at any time by just loading in an old game and hacking
away at the basic framework.

THE IDEA MACHINE
"Where do you get all your ideas from?" is a question commonly asked of me as
a programmer. I often feel as though I should ask in return, "How do you stop
yor ideas from driving you crazy?!?"

Every human being on earth is a natural dynamo of creative energy. Learning
how to tap this energy and translate it to a book, a canvas, or a computer's
memory, is a skill that can be learned. It is far from being a gift of the
gods, or innate. It is more a state of mind, an openness to your own dreaming
soul.

If you are reading this magazine, you have demonstrated an active mind. Now
you must learn to twist your mental imagery, your dreams, secret places, and
fantasies, into concrete lines of BASIC code.

THEMES
>>
>>385934616
>>385934705
The Codex really liked it :^)
>>
>>385934879
If the Codex likes a game most of the time it means the game is shit, with some exceptions, like Underrail.
>>
>>385934865
What interests you? Suspense stories? Sword and sorcery? Science fiction,
science fact? Intrigue, horror, romance?

Belive it or not, all these themes are suitable for text adventures. All of
them could probably be enjoyed by people of much wider or varied interests, if
they were written in such a way as to convey the excitement of the author over
the subject.

Colossal Caves is the grandfather of all text adventures. Written by Don
Woods and Will Crowther at MIT on a SAIL PDP-10 mainframe back in the infancy of
micros, it would prove to be the forerunner of everything from the Zork trilogy
to currently popular games with far more advanced parsers.

The classic text game African Adventure, about a search through darkest
Africa for Dr. Livingston, is a public domain adventure game that has delighted
microcomputerists for years. It is available on the CompuServe network, as well
as many other bulletin boards, and still manages to convey a sense of mystery
and adventure years after its creation. Games like that are almost immortal.
It will probably still be floating around 50 years from now.

>>385935056

>>385935005
Just sell your asshole on the street, it'll be a similar sensation.
>>
>>385935004
These games have made their authors some money through the years. But I
suspect most of them were not written for profit, but from a deep creative urge
on the part of the programmers. They had envisioned a world populated by
fantastic creatures, wizards, and menaces, and could not rest until they had
seen it in a form others could appreciate and enjoy.

If you need ideas for text games, look around you. Books. Movies. Your
own dreams, nightmares.

Tolkienesque fantasy is enjoying a great deal of popularity. Tales of
wizards and warriors are powerful myth-archetypes that reside in the universal
subconscious of mankind. They strike a clear bell in your primitive psyches,
playing on the elemental race memories of all humans. Some contend that it's
because these images fade in the minds of people as they grow older that they
lose their power; it is in young people that they are most likely to stir the
mind and excite the imagination.One fact is clear - few things are more
fascinating than a computer game with castles, dungeons, ogres, and treasure.

Science fiction allows a great deal of room for originality.

Age of Decadence is everything wrong with modern "retro" RPGs.
All prose no meat.
>>
>>385935115
It is a medium
in which almost anything can happen.Marooned spaceships and interstellar
junkyards make good plot devices for text adventures. Aliens make terrific
allies, or horrifying enemies.

Suspense and Mystery require the author to stick to more concrete rules for
the storyline, but the result can be much more challenging and subtle. Deadly
spies hunting the player, hidden time bombs, or mysteriously murdered diplomats
make for anxiety-ridden games.

Horror stories about mansions with ghosts and concealed fortunes, or subways
with creepy crawling "things"in the shadows, have a neat flavor of their own.
Again, the programmer can let his imagination run wild.

Grimoire is a reskin of Stones of Arnhem stolen by Cleve in the 90s from Sirtek during his employment there. He keeps swapping the sprites around to pretend it's a brand new game, but the truth is that very little has changed in the past 15 years and he's shown zero progress since his indie gogo campaigns. He must have realized that he lacks the brains and talent to actually develop the game so he keeps delaying the release endlessly, because once it's out, his image will be forever ruined when everyone realizes that Grimoire is built on stolen code with almost no contributions from Cleve himself.

So I'm assuming this guy is a developer on the same tier as Hans Reisier, Terry A. Davis, and Ullillilla.
Why is there people legitimately interested in playing the game? There's no way it will be good.

Here's my impression of an rpgcodex user:

This game, this... Piles Of Shiternity, by none other than Niggersidian E̶n̶t̶e̶r̶t̶a̶i̶n̶m̶e̶n̶t̶ is decline of the highest order, eclipsing even Brian Faggo's Waste Of Time 2.
>>
>>385935660
The threads won't stop for a while even after the game's release. We'll get to laugh at Cleve's interactions with steam users and his reaction to any critique of the game. Grimwah itself will probably be comedy gold too.
Also of if he keeps banning people in the steam forums Total Mantits and Jim Cucking Sterling might get involved.
Cleve is the gift that keeps on giving.

>>385935094
AoD is the kind of game you can only like if you're really into Sierra Adventures games and think LucasArts is too casual because they intentionally didn't have any game-stoppers.

Shut the fuck up you moron. This is a quality game. How many modern games give you 600 hours of gameplay? I will answer that for you.

0

Thats how many. The only scam here is you buying it for $40 when it could easily sell for $100.
>>

Excessively changing names like that reminds me of old people making political posts on Facebook, which frankly are probably the same people that post on rpgcodex.

Is it possible that Cleve was just trolling rpgcodex all these years? From what you guys are saying, it looks like rpgcodex is a den of autism of the highest caliber.

Well how long is it gonna take? Wasn't the approved already? An updated package shouldn't take as long as the first one to be approved right?

Because rpgcodexers are upvoting inappropriate tags. It used to be you could make your own, so Fez was tagged "choke on it" etc, but I think now you can only choose from a pre-approved list which includes anime, memes, nudity, and walking-simulator.

Clive just posted a ... confusing...update:

"Since about nine o'clock last night, no human being has died. I have ended all disease. I have freed all prisoners and slaves and I have put an end to the coercive rule of humans over other humans. I have ensured that all humans have the immediate necessities of life available. I have neutralized most of the world's weapons, including all nuclear weapons. I have removed nearly all toxic materials from the environment, and I am in the process of eliminating the need for dangerous industries. I have begun the process of returning the Earth's ecosystem to a state of long-term balance. I have informed about seven-eighths of the world's population of my existence, and I have been fulfilling their requests as resources and conflicts permit"

The difference is that game is nearly 20 years old, standards change, Grimrock is an example of what the genre should strive for these days.

He says in the video that someone who knows Cleve personal is going to do a webcam interview. There is no 100% certainty that this source is legit but I'm dying nonetheless to see how this plays out and Cleve sperging out over it.
