    You're just trying to blow our minds, aren't you? This is excellent news. I think The Moonwalls is going to become the next Sierra Online or LucasArts when it comes to adventure games :)

    It would be great :) Getting back to work - I have to finish some flashback scenes today :cool:
     
  5. I suppose I should catch up on the first two episodes before June ;)
     
  6. Also, anyone notice that DOOORS has made it all the way to the top, right under Draw Something? I hope it means they'll make more like that, maybe keep adding levels. Really a top-notch game.

    Brilliant use the technology. I wish more developers would use the platform to its fullest potential
     
  8. Me too. EnigmOn is on that track, but it's often way too vague. DOOORS is just right, never impossible, but sometimes makes you use your brain ;)

    If they could just develop a full adventure game but like Enigmon it would be fantastic. There was one where you moved your device to look around but it was very short. These sort of things may develop into bigger and better things in the future

    There is a new adventure game in the TA forums. Nice looking hand-drawn graphics, but I am not sure on gameplay.

    Mystery Lighthouse - a point-n-click adventure. (Link is to TouchArcade.com forum).

    Also a new Big Fish Games time management game-Magic Farm. (Link is to iTunes through bigfishgames.com). Pretty mediocre in my mind.

    I was actually thinking about picking this up, then I saw it was made by the developer of Dungeon Of The Damned. Now I think I'll wait to see what someone else thinks of it first, because personally I was not all that impressed with DotD.

    On the other hand, I started playing The Mystery Of Crimson Manor, and I'm really enjoying that one so far. It feels like an "escape the room" game but with a whole house and puzzles that actually make sense :)

    Clearly I don't since I'm asking, but is this what you're talking about? Draw Something free
     
  14. Yeah I am but my drawing is godawful despicable on it. Can't draw with my finger if my life depended on it.

    Yes, it's actually fun. The full version was on sale for $.99 so I upgraded to get coins for more colors haha add me ....Teagan622

    I should have probably used FB to sign in so I could get friends to join but wanted to try it out first. Much easier on an iPad:) @app you can make the line thin by clicking next to the eraser.

    @eric thanks for the link:)
     
  16. I know I can make the line thinner ;)
    But the lines never go where I want them to lol. My Otterbox doesn't help -- it messes me up wen I hit the edges.

    I know the following is really more for developers and PR people and such, but since you guys are discussing Draw Something I thought you might find it interesting. I'm particularly impressed with the company he's keeping in this summit:

    "Draw Something Designer Dan Porter to Deliver Featured Talk at Gamification Summit

    NEW YORK - Mar. 21, 2012 - Gamification Summit has today announced the addition of Dan Porter of OMGPOP, creator of the hit game Draw Something, to the list of featured speakers at the third GSummit. Taking place in San Francisco June 19-21 and with limited workshop space selling out quickly, GSummit h also extended its Early Bird pricing, representing $300 in savings, until March 29.

    At GSummit, Porter will share OMGPOP’s secrets on how to build lasting, gamified community engagement around well-crafted social game experiences. The hit Draw Something is now the most popular Facebook-connected game, unseating Zynga for the record, and has reached over 20 million downloads in just a few short weeks.

    In addition to Porter, a host of additional new GSummit speakers have been announced:
