QRimson development is back on, riskier than ever

[Rydash]

Goddamn finally.

I mean, eheh, sorry. I'm an ungrateful brat.

Anywho! I'm happy to see the renewed interest, and it'll be neat to watch things grow once more.

Good to see some progress, Jimmi, thanks for the update.

[Pretzel]

I'd much rather see this than no update at all. ^_^

Thanks for the heads-up!

Thanks for the info Jimmi. Good to have you back. You have an amazing game even in this version. I would love to see QRimson get closer to this version.

sounds like great news. Just read Garfield's blog entry, he was saying that its hard to capitalise on these kinds of games. Anyone else think that Qrimson could make an excelllent XBOX live arcade game? It is the perfect kind of size and it is based around multiplayer. If Xbox got interested, it would also be a great boost to the whole process. Apologies if this has been posted before, I'm sure its crossed someone's mind already...
anyway thanks for the update Jimmi, good luck with the development

If Jimmi kept the same exact game, and added:
1. disconnects do not end game, so you can come back
2. build/design and play your own board

and maybe some one of these
3. Ability to watch others games,
or
4. 2-4 players / team games

He would have an amazing game that would do really well.
I still see a lot of new players and members coming. Maybe just improving some of this would be a tipping point to grow.

We can't help spread the word about QR now because we need an improved version first.

Agree?

My shortlist:

1. REMOVE SMART BOMBS FROM THE GAME
2. Disconnects
3. Recording and remote viewing of games, player histories
4. Editable power pool
5. Map editing
6. Changes to powers

Honestly I think multiplayer is a blind alley. QR is a 1v1 game, having more than one player actively hurts gameplay. I've done it, the shit is not fun. Maybe other people feel differently, they should chime in if so. But it's definitely one of those things that sounded cool, but turns out to be no fun at all.

I am not interested until there is warp zones.

[frumpyjones]

I'm happy about the possibility of some venture capitalism being placed in here.

Glad to have nay news at all.

I am not interested until there is warp zones

Is this like hyperspace in asteroids? I thought we already had that with relocate. Or do you mean an orb that will move us back 3 moves so you can undo a bit of nastiness?

[The Learned Pig]

I mean fucking warp zones, dude.

Like, just warp zones.

[Snoop]

Keep reading bits and pieces about some new shit-hot game called Qrimson... Is it the new Quadradius or is it a brand new game altogether...

Whats the current status ?

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Come the fuck on Jimmi! It's been over a MONTH! Nothing?

[Polymorph]

Qrimson development is back off, sporadic as ever.
