New Dev File: Weather
Posted by redink1 on Wednesday July 18th, at 11:20 PM
Endy has created a new Weather D-Mod demonstration, which uses the rain and snow effects I created for FIAT and Cycles of Evil. And now its in a nice, tidy package.

This is ten billion times better than the existing Weather Demonstration file I created 8 or 9 years ago. Yes, ten billion. I did the math.
 
New D-Mod: Bill & Kill 2: The Unknown Boy
Posted by redink1 on Wednesday July 18th, at 11:25 PM
Jamiel, one of skull's alter-egos, had submitted a new, terrific D-Mod two months ago, but it was lost amid all of the skull-is-a-multiple-account-spammer nonsense.

Yes, Bill & Kill 2: The Unknown Boy has arrived, and it's better than the first. There's a cutscene. And a broken savebot. And enemies that will kill poor Dink about 3.2 seconds after meeting him. Awesome.
 
New D-Mod: The Legend of the Dink Special Edition - Rand's Quest for Axe
Posted by redink1 on Wednesday July 18th, at 11:31 PM
Another new D-Mod! The Legend of the Dink Special Edition - Rand's Quest for Axe is GOKUSSJ6's 3rd D-Mod, and follows Rand (from TLOD 2) on his very own quest for his very own axe. Which he needs, of course, to become an axe murderer. Going after people with butter knives and calling yourself an axe murderer just isn't the same.
 
New D-Mod: Attack of the Mutant Veggies

Be careful when you walk down the aisles of your local grocery store, because Radfrog has created Attack of the Mutant Veggies. In this D-Mod, Dink Smallwood is the only one willing to pit his strength and skill against the rebellious Ancients and mutant veggies to save the kingdom. Very cool concept.
 
New D-Mod: Fall of Darkness Trailer
Posted by redink1 on Wednesday July 18th, at 11:48 PM
Look out! Everyone's favorite disembodied skull has created a trailer to his upcoming D-Mod Fall of Darkness. I hope it entertains the notion that weird parts of darkness fall from the sky, and Dink must find a flashlight (a fairly difficult task in the middle ages) to fight it. My hopes are rarely fulfilled.
 
New D-Mod: The Legend of the Dink III - The Fall of Imperial Seth
Posted by redink1 on Wednesday July 18th, at 11:52 PM
GOKUSSJ6 has created a demo for his upcoming D-Mod The Legend of the Dink III - The Fall of Imperial Seth. Yes, from the title, it does seem that Imperial Seth falls. But does he fall from power? Fall from grace? Or maybe he falls after Dink trips him with a swift kick to the shins?
 
New Dev Graphics: Explosions and Pillbugs
Posted by redink1 on Wednesday July 18th, at 11:57 PM
The best things come in threes, like tricycles. undink1 knows this as well, so he created three new graphics files for D-Mod developers.

Watery Explosion - Explosions with water, not fire!!

Modified Pills - Like pillbugs, but MODIFIED!!

New Explosion - Booooooooom!!

The quality of these files cannot be called into question. Why? Because they arrived in a pack of three, o' course!
 
New D-Mod: Marco Polo

You know, writing up news items for new files can be rather tedious, which is why I put it off for weeks months and tend to write utterly ridiculous comments. But for RadFrog's new D-Mod, Marco Polo... I'll let RadFrog describe why he created this D-Mod:

"I made this D-MOD for entry in the Weird D-MOD Contest. It is really weird, since I missed the entry deadline by several years."

I salute you, sir.

merder has created a new D-Mod demo, Tears of the Devil. This is only an introduction beta, so be sure to offer any praise, criticisms, or suggestions.
