Took the online test a while back, and I’m pretty confident that I did rather well. So we’ll see what happens.

I was told this when I first joined the Game Creation Society, and sure enough “Strategery: Extreme Rock Paper Scissors Showdown” (that’s the actual title) turned out to be about half the game that I wanted it to be. And it does indeed suck.
The basic premise of the game is that each player controls a team of ninjas and they fight each other using Rock-Paper-Scissors. I still think that, if done well, one could make a really decent game out of it. But everything just came out really amateurish instead.
Failure, though, is just another word for “experience.” And I’m definitely making another one.
well, I missed it this semester. I would’ve had to get four A’s and a B to make it, and I’ve already got one C. I can still get a pretty respectable GPA though
