Was thinking of getting back into GM...

…by making a game for my girlfriend. Good idea? She's a gamer and I'm fairly certain she'd love it if I made something for her.

I feel like I should write more but I haven't slept yet and am close to falling asleep.

FirestormX was my hero before it was cool to have FirestormX as ones hero.

and write in toadstool's message box:

"I'm sorry, your girlfriend is the castle of your heart"

That's exactly the kind of lame project I imagine when I hear "making a game for my girlfriend".

Nothing to do with melee specifically.

Months of work later, "Oh, how cute, you made a game, whatever."

Where the fuck do you live that makes girls so bitchy? No one's made a game for me, so I wouldn't know, but I'm pretty sure that would be one of the best gifts I've ever received. :/

Edit: oh yeah, Ireland. Still explains nothing. >:/

I'm talking about people in general. Men do this to women too.

"Some" people just don't understand the value of custom made artwork.

Or appreciate when someone makes something specifically for them.

I do it to girls all the time. I appreciate nothing from the opposite sex.

Just make sure you post it on 64D so we can laugh at your efforts, regardless of how awesome it actually turns out.

Maybe :P

You'd rightfully assume that about women, wouldn't you?

I know her really well and I'm sure she would absolutely love it. Assuming I come up with a decent idea I'm going to do it. Just wanted to gather opinions.

Don't try and make a game that's fun (well, make it fun, I suppose), but instead focus on making it a story for her. Kind of like a love letter, but in game form. An adventure game where she, er, finds the key to your heart, or something.

Also, WTF, YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?!

Why was I not aware? :(

I like that idea, though I definitely want to make it fun.

And it's relatively recent. And I've been neglecting this site. :(
