I feel like there are other great homemade game authors I'm forgetting, and still others I never knew about.I downloaded one I found, but it looks all sorts of wrong. BigJon's games came with their own version of an Eggcrate font, but for whatever reason, it didn't install properly, and I had lots of blank score panels.
The AIF sound files in the games' folders play okay in WMP when clicked, but no sound at all is heard in gameplay. The BasicGames by Ryanmo97 mentioned earlier do not have any sound.I even went to my own site, which had a Box.net app people could download my own homemade games from, and found the app doesn't work anymore - but for the curious, here's a working link.īut I do have some issues that I'm hoping some of the denizens here can help me with: Now, finding a lot of the old games has gone surprisingly well, I downloaded all the old BasicGames by Ryanmo97 thanks to the Internet Wayback Machine, and somebody helpfully archived BigJon's stuff. I got through a LOT of long worknights thanks to those games.įast forward to today, and I spend most of my free time making Youtube videos, and I want to make a video celebrating these greats and others. My favorite part of the gameshow scene on the internet over the years has been the homemade gameshow games - they were everywhere, made by some supremely talented people, from Pacdude to BigJon, and I was in heaven.
