The game is called 'Pure', and it is an Online Hacking Game. http://pure-game.blogspot.com/p/media.html An API to developing new features for the game has already been developed, on the release of the beta test, all the testers will have a setup to their own API environment where, if desired, can design and create their own Pure features and apps to submit to Pure, sign up for beta at http://pure-game.blogspot.com/. If accepted, the feature/app will be placed in the game accordingly and you will be given an administrator menu relating to this new feature. The API allows you to take all of Pures' features and add you own, mix them up, or change them around completely without having to go too in depth with the coding. Programing Skill: Intermediate-expert If you are a programmer in php/javascript and would like to get involved early, send an email message my way at shccclick[]hotmail.com, or add me on MSN. A small ten question exam in PHP/Sql is required. The requirement for beta testers to join ends september 1st. 17 so far.

disclosure agreement? Umm i don't think i will be signing much. If the group turns out to be garbage ill let you guys know. as far as game development secrets, the quality of the ones i share must match the quality of the ones u share. Sim has the right idea but going about it wrong, it should be more a group of members who discuss things about their game, idk what all this other hooplah is about. Some of my best ideas came on my own, while talking to other people. Most times i give myself the fresh idea, just by bouncing old ideas off of a person.

well i joined because bouncing ideas of people can be a great tool to develop new ideas, other than that i don't feel like anyone else here could offer me their secrets about game development that i could generally use, or don't already know.

I hope it doesnt end with me giving away all my secrets. :(

Actually using a specific script to make your titles more alive, you do put style and html in the title attribute

Check out the update. http://pure-game.blogspot.com/ I added a nice new design as well as a in-site forum. I think for the people that may have seen it previously, it was a bit cluttered, but not so much anymore. Also since my last blog post of 1000 views, its doubled, so thats good. If your hoping to get a glimpse of the Online Hacking Game to release features that have not been seen (by me or anyone i have met so far) in this genre, you can sign up at the blog. This game is being programmed with the intention of stopping the genre-lock and opening it up to gamers in general, with an easy but powerful GUI. Heres another screenshot of the game taken right now as in development http://s4.postimage.org/5si0s3d6z/Screenshot.png so what do you think?

I started on mafia corruption. Only mafia game i have played. Finger banged probably 20 mafia engines including one with the admin panel and variables written in dutch. : )~

Something like this would not use crons, just php and would account for when the user is offline, although to other users viewing their stats, it wouldn't change until they came online. 5 minute cron $time=time(); $next_update=($_SESSION['lastran'] + 300); if($next_update <= $time){ $math=($time - $next_update); $amountToUpdate=($math / 300); $amountToUpdate=number_format($amountToUpdate,0); if($amountToUpdate < 1){ $amountToUpdate=1; } if($amountToUpdate > 10){ $amountToUpdate=10; } while($amountToUpdate > 0){ mysql_query("UPDATE THIS USERS STATS"); } $_SESSION['lastran']=time(); $amountToUpdate=($amountToUpdate-1); }else{ ## nada }     Or you can use the cron files you already have without running crons by adding something like this to your one minute cron file, that way not every user it checking to see if they have to update like above, instead the cronbot that runs every minute for your hospital and jail will also be your five minute one too, which lets you eliminate the need for the 5min cron 5 minute cron $time=time(); $next_update=($_SESSION['lastran'] + 300); if($next_update <= $time){ $math=($time - $next_update); $amountToUpdate=($math / 300); $amountToUpdate=($amountToUpdate,0); if($amountToUpdate < 1){ $amountToUpdate=1; } if($amountToUpdate > 10){ $amountToUpdate=10; } while($amountToUpdate > 0){ $ch = curl_init("path/to/your/fiveminutecron.php"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); $output = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); } $_SESSION['lastran']=time(); $amountToUpdate=($amountToUpdate-1); }else{ ## nada }   Another way to do that one above would be   $_SESSION['updated']+=1; if($_SESSION['updated'] > 4) { $_SESSION['updated']=0; $ch = curl_init("path/to/your/fiveminutecron.php"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); $output = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); }   Of course that's all untested, just typed into the forum but you get the idea.

Can anyone get 100%>?

I made this late last night with my eyes half open, but it turned out ok as a rough draft http://vimeo.com/27690520

oxidati0n has exceeded their stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until they clear some space.

Ok had 2 peoples take the quiz, one passed and i think one quit.

Its not that kind of exam, i will paste the questions one by one into a shared document between us and you will anser the question in real time, so its a real exam, not just pasted questions. Thats why it says in my post it says "give the recipient the link to a live feed of the exam, seeing it as it happened. " Because the website to take the exam has a history link that displays what we typed as it happened (like rewinding and playing back a videotape)

You should be the judge nickson

no one is up for the challenge, from a scale of 1-10 i would say its a 4 in difficulty

i actually made a game like this called The Executive, unpublished, you have to maintain a balance of employees, to business size, vs overhead.

So i made up a small ten question PHP exam, hey you might take it and get 100%! If you want to participate just reply or PM me. 3 Tests Taken So Far.: Danny696, UsVice, Rory_m Only 1 passed The exam is ten questions. 6 are finding a parsing or logical error. 4 require you to type in real time. It's not too bad. Will update with results here and give the recipient the link to a live feed of the exam, seeing it as it happened. Your results will be PM'd to you.

Actually i made a small ten question PHP exam, if someone wants to give it a go?

i started writing up a few php problems that require solving that i could submit to this

wait, i thought danny was being a dick until you said that he said 'dreamweaver users newbs' Dreamweaver users are newbs, unless in the rare case where you have enough knowledge to really take advantage of that sort of program. I cba to waste any disk space on something like that.

so someone chooses a small topic like, a horseracing game, something thats comfortably one page, and those who compete submit the work in a given time period? Howabout a user is shown a small script outputting but not the source and have to recreate it, closest one correct, and first one done wins.

all of them seem about the same, mostly airbrush or feathered around the edges. I would require something more modern and snazzy.

i am sure its simpler than all that,check your crimes on how you made it act on success, somewhere you fucked up your logic when creating the crimes and doing the formula for gaining experience.

Probably, find the bit where it is submitting and omit the script from looking for it.
