| 2009/10/26: Updated World of Spells |
|---|
|
Ok, this is a minor one. I've updated the article World of Spells significantly, adding more spell effects, summaries for the spell effect types, and reorganizing a few things. I also modified World of Magic slightly. The impetus to these changes was adding these articles to the Simugraph Library, a wiki about developing video game RPGs. Comments about these articles caused me to update them. |
| 2009/10/04: RBI Progress Report |
|
Bugs and more bugs. I've been buried in bugs the entire time I've been working on the game. I've spent more time fixing the bugs than I have writing new code. The demo for RBI (Rabbit Bureau of Investigation) is not being made publicly available as of yet. Progress is being made, but more for the map editor than for the actual game. In fact, progress is only being made on the map editor at this time, though that's about to change. I just posted this to remind everyone that we're still alive. RBI is going to take a long time to develop, and no release date has been set yet. While nothing is finalized yet, we have a fairly good idea of what the game will look like upon completion. |
| 2009/08/27: New Games |
|
Two new games have been added: Science Girls and Space Junk (a freeware Orbital Cows original). Also, Orbital Bricks (another freeware Orbital Cows original) has been updated to version 2.0. New logos have been uploaded for Lucky's Puzzle Carnival and Nanotron. |
| 2009/08/25: Website Updates |
|
I restored the Rael banner and the mention of Rael: The Redemption on the Upcoming page. Also, I made a note of a bug in the freeware Rabbits game on the obscure page of this site upon which it appears. The article Time Cost of Walking Vs. Driving (2009) has been clarified slightly. |
| 2009/08/20: LPC Version 1.03 |
|
Lucky's Puzzle Carnival has been updated to version 1.03. The Orbital Cows 2009 Bundle has been updated with the same version of LPC. This update only changes 2 things: it updates some of the interface artwork and clarifies the General Instructions slightly. Also, the recipes have been removed from the website due to low interest. Later, more relevant articles will be added to the articles page. |
| 2009/08/12: Cool Character Generator |
|
Here's the results I got on a What Kind of Dungeons and Dragons Character Would You Be? website I tried out. While this has nothing to do with Orbital Cows Entertainment, I thought it would be something cool to post about. I Am A: Chaotic Neutral Human Sorcerer (3rd Level)Ability Scores: Strength-11 Dexterity-11 Constitution-12 Intelligence-12 Wisdom-11 Charisma-9 Alignment: Chaotic Neutral A chaotic neutral character follows his whims. He is an individualist first and last. He values his own liberty but doesn't strive to protect others' freedom. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. A chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, he would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from himself suffer). A chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but his behavior is not totally random. He is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it. Chaotic neutral is the best alignment you can be because it represents true freedom from both society's restrictions and a do-gooder's zeal. However, chaotic neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it seeks to eliminate all authority, harmony, and order in society. Race: Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like. Class: Sorcerers are arcane spellcasters who manipulate magic energy with imagination and talent rather than studious discipline. They have no books, no mentors, no theories just raw power that they direct at will. Sorcerers know fewer spells than wizards do and acquire them more slowly, but they can cast individual spells more often and have no need to prepare their incantations ahead of time. Also unlike wizards, sorcerers cannot specialize in a school of magic. Since sorcerers gain their powers without undergoing the years of rigorous study that wizards go through, they have more time to learn fighting skills and are proficient with simple weapons. Charisma is very important for sorcerers; the higher their value in this ability, the higher the spell level they can cast. What's screwed up is that my prime attribute is only 9. It's my lowest score, though none of my ability scores are particularly high. |

The articles Rant: Federal Holidays and Time for A Modern World have been added to replace the old "A New Calendar" article. The article Time Cost of Walking Vs. Driving (2009) is a 2009 update of the article Time Cost of Walking Vs. Driving (2008). Also, the old article was updated to fix a math error. |
