  1. Yeah, I noticed that. I could have named it something like "Jed the wonder-punk" or something, but people see the word Fist and take notice. I'm still happy to use the title. You never know, Fist of Fury might get pulled yet, for copying a Nintendo title.

    Arn, if you are reading this, please get back to me regarding advertising. Thank you.

    I am in the process of actually incorporating this technique into my moves. I have just tested it on Jeds hook. I think it actually looks better as it gives more of a sense of movement.
    Excellent tip Nickels ;)

    I have been "tracking your progress" and I think I am getting this simply because of the forums. It looks great and I would love to make a video for you if you want. I am actually kinda pumped for it's release and think it might get into the top 100 if the forums support it. I think it will be like zombieville and lurk in the top 100 for a while.

    Don't be too rough on Arn. I'm sure he's more on top of this more than you think. Btw, the game looks good and will definitely pick this up when it's out.

    Conducting business like that is inappropriate in the forums. arn will get to wastedyuthe when the time is available. It is a challenging task to manage this site along with the business aspects. Many people are trying to go with the advertising route here. (me included.)

    Plus I'll be sad if I don't get chosen! :(

    Strange......I have been posting here for a little bit now.....browsing the forums like 1000000 times a day. And why havent I posted in this thread?? Like one of those things that just go WAY over your head!! :eek:

    This looks impressive! I love how there are different campaigns and different maps. I will be getting this I am sure!

    I'll be absolutely honest with you so you don't get disappointed.

    Firstly, there is one campaign as such. It is called the Campaign mode, and is the games Career mode in essence. But since in the story it isn't a career to go beating up gang members, I changed the name of the mode to Campaign as it is more appropriate to what it consists of.

    Secondly, yes there are 4 parks, each with their own set of 9 gang members. But the "maps" are all the same 3x3 grid, differing from each other (and indeed differing every time you play the Campaign mode to help add replay value) by the opponents and stats of those opponents. Park 1, for example, may consist of 5 of the woman gang, with one or two of each of the others. Their ranks would be either rank 1 or 2. Park 2, on the other hand, may consist mostly of the bigger slower guy and only 1 woman, and the ranks will increase to either 2 or 3. You pick your opponent based on the fight type given to you for that round, but you can only fight and win each gang member once, in which case they get crossed off the list. If you lose a fight and have already won at least one cross, then a cross will get taken off the 'map' and you will have to fight someone you already won again as punishment.
    This means that the more you beat, the less choice you will have for the following ones. In parks 3 and 4, you really have to think about which opponents you want to fight at the end and leave them till last, as the last fights (being the "Double" fight type) are the hardest. See where the strategy comes in? There is also more strategy in deciding on the right opponent for the other fight types.
    With regards to different "maps", it is something I have thought of already, and may come into play for a sequel not an update to this game. It would be part of a sequel as I have other ideas that will make it very different to this one, but keeping the actual fighting similar if not the same.

    Hope that clears that up for you, and I hope you are still interested.

    Damn! you pulled this of. Indeed very inspiring. Make sure it is a worldwide release, will buy it for sure!
     
  15. NEWS FLASH!

    I have rejected the app from submission myself, as I have been contacted by someone from fistofjustice.com, which directs to a Facebook page belonging to the makers of a comic book of that name.

    They haven't said what they want yet, but I assume it is because of the name (clever aren't I?) and perhaps they have it copyrighted already as it is a comic that has apparently been out a year and is even on Wikipedia. What I don't understand is I did a Google search of the name when I thought of it, and didn't find their site, but I do now. Anyway, in order to avoid any legal issues I have decided to reject my app till I think of another name. Besides, I don't want people to think my game has anything to do with the comic, so I wouldn't want that confusion either.

    So, Wastedyuthe NEEDS YOU!! Help me think of some new names for my game- preferably short and sweet, no more than 3 words. Possibly one word would be good so I can fit its name under the icon on the home screen (I had to use initials with Fist of Justice). HELP PLEASE!

    punch of justice. ? ;)
    blow of justice. ?

    btw, you can use the name fist of justice. they cannot prove that it was based on a comic book. plus, and this is more important, it's a name used for different kind-of product.

    i like this one.
     
  20. BLOW of justice? I know what you mean, but some might read the title and think of something else.

    I know what you are saying about the name, but I still would rather not have any trouble, and more importantly, I just don't want to be associated with the comic- let's face it, fans of the comic will see the name of my game and think it is related.

    I like that, but the game is based more in parks rather than streets, so it won't fit.

    I like the title "Punk Justice" as Jed, the character you play, is a punk, and he is serving his own kind of justice. So Punk Justice fits. I just have to Google to see if it's been taken already.
    What do you guys think?
