The Dink Network

Hey everybody, remember the Box that was suppossed to come out way back when? Well since then my life got way busy (I'm getting married next month), and I haven't gotten it out yet. I never finished it, but I was going to release what I had. Anyway, the good (?) news is that I am going to finally release it (unfortunately in it's unfinished form). Should be out before the end of the month.

Well, before I say anything about the D-Mod...Congratulations!

Regarding Dink, will you ever be able to finish the Box or any other Dink, or will you be occupied with other things?

At times, I wish that I could work on DMODs again. It was really fun. I remember coming home from college and spending hours just writing my dmods. I guess they were a little rushed, but I couldn't wait to get more ideas out and try to do some things that no one else had done. Such it was with the Box. It was a very ambitious project, but it will never be finished by me. I don't have time to devote to Dink anymore. Not the time I need to do it justice anyway. With that said, there are some things that can be taken from the Box for further developers. There are some new weapons (I think are still in there) and some cool scripts. One part of the game (that is not included in the game but I had started testing) was going to be in a building with rotating cameras. There could be up to 3 on the same screen. Red boxes even showed you where the unsafe zones were... Anyway, all that to say, no I will not be working further on the Box or on any other Dink projects.

Congratulations, and best wishes!

Too bad for us dinkers, though.

I enjoyed the FB series

I guess that means I won't be betatesting it

It's a real pity to see you release an unfinished project which was promising none the less.

You know, you don't have to be working on a d-mod 6 hours a day to be able to finish it. Look at me and Tallis, we have been working on Legend's Tale for over, what was it again, 2 years? LT exists so we can channel our fantasy and our creative thoughts. I don't think it's a good idea to just dismiss that aspect of life. Perhaps you can convince your fiance Dink is really cool and it's actually the only thing she's missed in life

My point is (there's a point?), don't completely give up what's important, but rather occupy yourself with it when you have nothing else to do. Eventually it will be finished and you can be assured of one thing, we'll all still be here waiting for it.

Anyway, good luck and a happy life Wes.

PS. You can still stick around on the board as well

Well, I was playing through it last night and got stuck around the 20 minute mark. I will have to play through it and make sure that you can at least get to the several hours that are in there.

Sorry, Kyle, no you won't be beta testing . I was looking forward to that process since I hadn't done it with any of the FB DMODS.

And finally, addressing the future development issue. I know my fiance enough to know that she wouldn't enjoy Dink that much. Especially seeing me write code and testing it. Furthermore, as good as Dink is and as much as I enjoyed developing for it, it doesn't hold a candle to spending time with my wife to be.

Thanks to all, and I will try to be around.
