Title: The Endless Forest
Post by: Lizard Dude on April 26, 2006, 03:56:56 PM
I came upon something unique in this world, today, a sensation that always delights me.

It is a "social screensaver" called The Endless Forest, in which you play a deer and meet other deer.

Go get it here (http://www.tale-of-tales.com/TheEndlessForest/index.html).

Today I stood atop a pillar and danced with a white deer.

My name is (https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kontek.net%2FLizardDude%2FEndlessForest.png&hash=3e06739bcde9af70789db9878725ef1a).  Come frolic with me.



Note
For me, it runs at about 15 FPS and I'm not sure why. Slow computers, watch out. This game has a bad engine that takes up way more horsepower than it should.

My screensaver for the last six years has been "blank screen".

My screensaver has Mr. Kitty from South Park...and that's...it.

Hmm, I guess my first post didn't really make it clear that this is a multiplayer game, not just some screensaver. I was trying to get people to play.

This is a great multiplayer game, but you need a freaking supercomputer just to play it at full speed! The first time I played I was met by some white deer, who zapped me, then I was white too! I ended up trying to move my mouse but It was only 10 FPS max even was the graphics at its lowest. So I dicided to quit, but when I did, It just ended up with a blank screen and nothing could be done except pushing the power button on the hard drive. I had to hold it for 10 seconds until it fiannaly shut off. I went out of the room, then I came back with some string cheese and turned it back on. (This is what really freaked me out) As soon as the light came on, a really loud WOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH sounded from the hard drive! I could feel the wind blowing really hard in my face! After that, it slowly sounded down and everything went as planned. After that, I shut the screensaver off and posted this.

I recommend not to use this program unless you got a video card or something.

Yeah, the more I look at their forums and stuff, the more apparent it becomes that this game is rather poorly programmed and requires way more computer speed than it should, considering what's displayed. I shouldn't be getting more frames per second in Half-Life 2 than this...
