      1. @delc17 Aw... That sucks. :( I'm studying to become a game developer and my dream is to work for them. That'd be glorious. @magicrussia It's pretty overwhelming, right? Don't worry, I don't think anypony will be offended if you miss their post. :) @starshine Hm... You got a point there.

        1. @flaxx good luck. They're located in my home state of maryland, in bethesda md, to be exact. kinda why they're called that

        2. @flaxx I've been down to Bethesda, MD a lot :D It feels so cool to be really close to a big game legend like them. To me, making games is just a hobby.. But I love it anyway

                1. @delc17 Haha, I go to Hunt Valley a lot. Mostly either to stop at Wegmans, or take the light rail to the BCC For Otakon :P

                  1. @binary I shop at wegmans and eat at Outback pretty regularly. Maybe we could meet sometime. I always wear my MLP Dash shirt when I go to wegmans.

          2. @binary Yeah, no matter how corny this sounds, I'm going to make games because I think it's fun. Not because of the money. But, if I can earn enough money from making games to spend all my time doing that, then hey, I ain't complaining. I still have a long way to go, though, I'm not even sure if I should go for programming or graphics. I'm leaning towards graphical stuff, 'cause you gotta know a lot of math to study programming, so I'm thinking of learning that as a side project. @fluttershy321 Am I really that bad at lying?

            Sunday, 22-May-11 20:49:42 UTC from web
            1. @flaxx Exactly. I do lots of programming, but I know I could never do it professionally because of all of the complex math I'd need to figure out for anything more than a silly 2D game or two. I'm more of a designer-programmer than a true programmer.

      1. @extremedash Now I just gotta get an logo and background. Thinking of making the logo something Morrowind related. !tes @delc17 Thanks. It'll probably be some years before I qualify to work for them, though, so don't hold your breath. :P

        Sunday, 22-May-11 20:45:37 UTC from web
        1. @flaxx Yah that would be sick Morrowind is the !TES game so thats a great idea

          Sunday, 22-May-11 20:54:22 UTC from StatusNet iPhone
          1. @extremedash Already done. :P The logo is Morrowind, but I'm thinking of making the background more TES-y and not just a specific game. !tes

    3. @greydragon412 I don't think Flash has incompatibility issues like that as far as I know. I can play old, ancient flash games without any issues. Of course, CS5 would still be a lot easier to work with, but that's a personal preference. Sorry if I'm wrong, I'm not a flash dev despite always being interested in it

      1. @binary @greydragon412 They're generally REALLY careful not to screw up compatibility for .swf playback - so much that the file format is an absolute mess of backward-compatibility flags and other such nonsense.

    4. @greydragon412 Should still work.
