Boring RPG

[Zeggy]

I have decided to promote my game a bit more, to get a bit more activity going :)

Boring RPG is what I've been working on over the past few weeks. It's a simple concept - you click a button to play. That's all!

It's still in development, but a lot of the game is already functional and playable. I'd like some feedback on the overall game experience from the people who give it a go :)

Thanks!

And please report any bugs you find! :D

Not a bad game... beside you can't do much beside waiting XD

Also I tried quickly to check if I could create a soft to play it automatically in background and decided to not go futher: too much pain understand how you handle the login (as it seems to be a session), and also to continue to play... Too bad for me :P

[Zeggy]

Hehe, thanks. Yeah, it would probably be quite easy to have a bot play the game... but that would be pretty sad for the cheater since the game is already as simple as possible :P

Still, I'm wondering how I can stop it. I'm thinking I can show a captcha every x clicks, but that doesn't seem like a very user-friendly solution at the moment.

Any demo account there?

[Zeggy]

I think somebody created an account with the username demo, I'm not sure if it's meant to be a demo account.

Just sign up! It's quick and easy, you don't even need an email address.

Signed up, interesting game, but can get a bit boring after some time :(

I think its a really good idea!

add a few more features like an attack module and it would be better :)

[Zeggy]

Yep, attacking other players will be implemented soon, as will guilds, which allows players to work together.

srachit: yep, I'll be trying to add stuff for players to do in between waiting for clicks and to make the game more competitive, hopefully that will make more players stay.

Although, the game is best played when you are not actually playing the game - while you are doing other stuff. Sounds silly, but the idea in my mind is that somebody can be working, then every say, 10 minutes they can check their timer and click, and go right back to work. Kind of like progress quest or irc's Idle RPG, but on the web and with 1 extra step of interaction.

ok, waiting for update :)

i don't really like this i find i can't help but look every 5 mins to click it and i get no work done lol

[srachit]

I forgot my password and there is no recover password botton, what to do now?

[Zeggy]

Are you sure you have an account?

The game was reset very recently, and everybody needs to create their account again.

[srachit]

oh well then maybe thats the case, will re-register and check :)
