When designing a new video game, do not include a "continue" option.
Yeah, and make it a "one hit wonder" style game where you die right away and you only have one life! That would f*cking rawk! Sweet bargain seeing as it's already costing you a goddamn dollar to play the stupid game.
No thanks, when you can play a multiplayer game in the privacy of your own home where bullies can't rough you up for your change.
Sigh*... I hate to wax nostalgic, but I wish I had been born 15 years early. Due to my youth (born in 1977), I really missed so many great things -- or caught them only at the end of their lifespan.
I hear ya. BBSes were great. I ran one myself and wrote a few cool door games for my own users. They got semi-popular around other boards, too, but never hugely took off. I always thought that if I had written them 5 years earlier they'd have been huge!
I'm also thinking of open sourcing one of my door games, The Clans. So if you're interested, go here. I'll have an update soon.
