Yoderic's Battle Arena -- Come And Play!!

[JDYoder]

I've been creating an Fantasy RPG-like Battle Simulator game. Just yesterday, we posted our Beta program on our site and we've got about 30 people helping us test the program. To read what it's all about, click on my link down below.

Anyone can come and play, and we'd love to hear your input for this Beta phase since many of you are probably gamer pros. (Currently, we're having a discussion on our forum about how the game should play itself out, which I could use some help and ideas with). And BTW, someone else did the website and graphics -- I did the programming.

So just click on the link below and you'll see what this thing is all about. (Setup up your character(s) now before the first Tournment Session this Saturday!) And again, I'd love to hear your input...

I'll give it a go when I get home.

Although I've not replied to the group eMails you've sent, I have been following its progress and I'm interested to see how you're getting on...

[Sastraxi]

Sorry JD, but when I try to save my character it keeps saying "could not be saved".

[JDYoder]

Sastraxi...

I got that yesterday too, and I realized it was because I was using an apostrophe in the character's bio. Same error would occur if you put an apostrophe in the name. Would that happen to be your problem? (I'll be fixing that in the next version).

If nothing else, you should be able to just type in a name and click save. If you can't even do that, then I'll have to try and figure out what's going on. Let me know what you find.

Otherwise, you can email me the info ([email protected]) of your char that you're trying to save and I'll try it myself. Thanks for playing!

[Fishcake]

I've set up a few characters and had no trouble saving, infact everythings worked fine.

Looking forward to getting my arse kicked in the first battle

[JDYoder]

For anyone following this thread, here's an example Battle Log which occured the first tournament ran, in case it may sway you to want to come play. I'm Baloot, and Fiscake was Fragrin. Congrats for beating me, Fishcake.

[Fishcake]

Alas I didn't do so well against other characters.

But did notice not many wizards high up in the ranking, but i suspect that with exp that can become quite awesome.

[JDYoder]

Indeed, Fishcake. I'm excited to see how this all plays out as more and more exp is gained. BTW, for anyone interest in all the rankings so far, here's a link to our site which tells you...
