Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature Yeah, I hear you. A lot of the more strategic layers will be worked in later. For example, my husband really wants elemental weapons, and combat stances that you have to earn over time so it matters which you pick.

Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature
Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature Hacking is meant to be a bit of a game of chicken. The # of accounts determines the upper bounds of what you'll win. On the hacking leaderboard you'll see many people with hacks over $10,000. With an average virus cost below $1000, it's a lucrative minigame. If I increase payouts, the inflation rate of the game will also rise.Yes, many game mechanics are luck based, however scavenging is modeled after minesweeper, a popular puzzle game.The less luck based things are, the more detailed A.I. and layered strategy is required: a mountain of work for one solo, part-time programmer (me) who is doing all the writing, programming, graphics, sounds & support alone. The game is still in Beta, and I consider it to be a proof of concept the scavenging is the most involved & non-luck-based element, and also the most recent. I'm tackling larger and more detailed features as the game matures.

Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature
Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature As a bit of an idea for players hoping for more to do... here are some planned features:- A text based maze-style mini-game where you explore the outskirts of the city. Random encounters with 'enemies' and random treasure finds.- A hydroponics system to grow resources over a long period. A money maker and important story element.- Crafting system - the items found while scavenging will be added to your inventory. You use these materials to craft weapons, armor and equipment.- A player market to sell the items you craft.- Multi-player actions where players online at the same time team up to complete an objective such as one faction attacking another.Regarding upgrading to the next class. I was considering having a min number of wins required to be 'invited' to the next class. Then if you have the money you can buy the next bot regardless of stats. I think this makes more sense in how in real life sports you must earn your way from amateur to pro, etc. However I was not sure what a good number of wins would be, so the current system is allowing me to observe a bit first.

Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature
Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature Hi Everyone!Thanks for playing!I've been making some changes to try and improve the accessibility. @Dark .. please let me know some of the accessible captcha questions and what you answered exactly for answers. It should work regardless of capitalization. I ran many test cases and am using a pre-existing captcha plugin. If you have examples I can test them out myself. Spaces will cause it to fail.I also fixed the text on the Tagging radio buttons to make it clearer which radio button goes with what.A bit of back ground for folks with concerns about the grinding / timers/ etc. Roboid is based on a particular genre of game. Many others like it operate on either a timer system or an 'Energy' bar which needs to refil over time. I modelled Roboid after these types of games. Some people who like the casual aspect of it, it's a perfect fit. Other people who like to sit down for a couple hours and play one game full out exclusively, th is doesn't really fit. Many people play it while doing other work on their computer or phone. Some people browse the forums a bit while waiting for timers. One of the largest and most popular text based game of this type uses Energy and Nerve bars which take half a day to refil.I've tried to space the timers out and stagger them so that there is frequently something activating. But once you get a system down you can usually "set up" everything in a few minutes then leave it for a while. This style of casual, non-time-consuming gameplay appeals to some and not to others. As you unlock more things to do, you have less waiting and more activities. While Hacking and Scavenging are my only two mini-games so far, I plan on adding many more. Hacking is intentionally hard. Very hard. There is also intentionally not a lot of guidance for it. Much like 'real' life you have to bang away at it. Once you get it though, it's a major money mak er. Often $5-$15K each time. Thus why it has the longest timer.The classifieds renew every 24 hour period to a new random set. I agree that it is frustrating that the earning mission limits you to earning money from the classifieds alone. I wrote that mission when there was not much else in the game. I plan on revisiting it before I start season 2 of the missions.The missions are intended to take a while. My hope is that all 9 season 1 missions will take a month or so of casual game play. Part of this is because of how the game is built, and part if it is because, as a stay at home parent, I can only work on Roboid in my spare time, so can't churn out new missions (with the writing and programming involved) on too fast of a schedule.Regarding upgrading bot classes. It takes about a month to max out your Amateur bot. My hope/plan is for it to take about a year to burn through all the existing combat classes. I must then decide what happens to players who max out in superweight. I'm considering an open ended 'underground' class with no limits. Many players have expressed dislike for the idea of round-based play (where everyone starts fresh at each new round).Training matches you against a bot with approximately equal stats. In the long run you'll win 50% of the time.Adding a weapon and armor will do wonders to your win-loss performance. A bare-bones amateur bot with only bit of training/calibrating under its belt will not surprisingly be losing often. I can't make everyone a butt kicker off the get go. Most players end up with a much higher # of wins than losses against the NPCs within a week or two.I don't ever want Contributor Status to give players much of an edge over other players. The game money given is minimal compared to what you can earn hacking and scavenging in few days time. At the $25 contribution for $150K game money, it's a nice amount but not a game changer. There will be more money making mini games coming soon.Hacking tip- choose your first word with the most overlap with other words as possible. Spot common ending letters for example and pick a first word which will help eliminate as many as possible. The 'letters in common' refers to the position of the letter too.

Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature sneak wrote:I'm on the game as sneaky, I'm liking it so far, but progression is rather slow IMO. I'm at a point where I have to make 2000 dollars using only the classifieds, but I've already made over 3000 total from all the activities in the time I've been waiting, so I'm just wondering if it could be changed to be total money made, or some way to use credits or something to reduce the wait time.There are currently 9 missions total in Season 1. My ideal is for each season to require about 1-2 months to play through at a reasonable pace. The missions are long, yes, but that's intentional. It's a game for the long haul. I also need time to implement the features and story that will go into Season 2.With the effort I spend on the written component, the missions are supposed to be long and satisfying when finally completed. Eventually I'll have Side Quests which will be like mini-missions that players can do which are shorter and will bridge the time between longer missions and between seasons.

Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature
Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature Hm. Good point. I'm constantly evolving my view of where the combat mechanic will go.The hit or miss results are dependant upon your bot's stats and a random virtual roll of the dice. In lower weight classes, your stats (which are low) have a minor effect on the 'weight' of the result versus your stats. So new players in lower classes will find some fluctuation in who wins although running multiple fights the person with better stats wins definitely more often.As you rise in the ranks, the random roll plays a less and less significant part in the outcome of the match. So, it becomes harder and harder to beat opponents who beat you in stats.When you enter the fight lobby, you are matched against a random player (or NPC if not enough players are online) who is within a range of your stats. As you level up your stats you'll get to the next NPC. There will petty much always be about 2 NPCs with whom your stats overlap. Typically one who wi ll be much weaker than you and one much stronger.You hit the nail on the head, that as the player base grows, you'll get matched against more real players. I put the NPCs in there to bridge the gap for players when there aren't enough real fighters online. In an ideal world I'd have a bunch of time to just sit one day and add several more NPCs to give more variety. It's quite time consumer to register an account then edit the stats, weapons etc in the database for an NPC account. I certainly plan to do so. I also need to set up the Heavyweight NPCs because I have a player or two ready to go to that level, and only one NPC in there currently. Ack.

Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature
Re: Roboid Inc.: New accessible browser game with large story feature I agree that a turn by turn combat would be awesome. However for a browser game which is not using Java or Flash or some other plugin, this is very hard to do. You would need to ensure that each player is online (and not idle) at the same time, that they don't wander away from their browser, and then have each player's browser constantly poll the server to find out what the other player did and if it's your turn or you're still waiting. It's possible, just very heavy server load and a monster programming task. As a solo developer at this time, it's more time and effort than I'd want to spend. Especially since my vision of the game is to have so much more than just combat. I want the combat itself to only be about 5% of what there is available to do in the game.If I'm ever so fortunate to earn any income from the game, I might be able to hire a second programmer who could help with jazzy feature improvements like that!
