>>I keep hearing fans can do it better but virtually everything I've seen is poorly written, silly acting and poor production values.
Portal, the game and the independent movie.
How true. My ignorance is honest; their ignorance is derived from knowing just enough to get themselves into trouble.
The older I get, the more I realize that what I was "taught" in higher education was based on shaky or uncertain principles and I had to accept that what I actually know may not be entirely true or accurate at any time, ever.
I know I have never posted here before, but I am currently making a game with Ren'Py above and beyond the norm. Also, the programmer is active on the Lemmasoft Forums and even codes for new games. http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/
I am also making art for another programmer/writer and the game will be done shortly, as soon as I finish.
But I find it very sad that Slashdot has completely ignored the Ren'Py community. Granted, no REALLY professional games have been created (yet) but the potential is definitely there, and the programming language is disgustingly easy, even for me.

That means more customers for Nintendo and Blizzard Entertainment / Activision then...

I'm sorry, but can you explain what your sig means tepples? Is it meant to imply a comparison to other countries or to point out existing solutions?

Thus, leading to several seconds of confusion on my part ... (when did Blizzard team up with Disney? Is it April Fool's already? etc. ... )
