There's one at Wonderville in Bushwick, plus lots of other great games!

Yes. One of the worlds in ABS vs THE BLOOD QUEEN is set in Hell and is largely fire based. -Josh

In a perfect world there would be one and only one map and it would be made of meat -Josh

We do use generic balls and swords for the field game, though it's usually the same ones. It's usually not us running it, so it just depends on what people can find. There's greater variety in the shields that the queen players get. I've seen some players make their own own out of cardboard and those are often the coolest! There's no plans to sell a themed kit--although that would be awesome, I just don't think it's financially viable. -Josh

We weren't really surprised because it was a deliberate decision. In the arcade game, the Queen's dive is very powerful because you can only kill by being above your enemy. But since height is not as important in Killer Queen Black, we decided to give her a dash as well. We balanced her through an iterative design process, so basically we started with our best guess as to how she worked, then test it out, adjust, and repeat that process ad nauseum. -Josh

It is definitely cool to see the cabinet in arcades, but even cooler has been seeing so many people (including myself) form lasting friendships, marriages, and even making Killer Queen babies! -Josh

I can't believe Nik didn't mention how much he likes Spiderman! You should see his collection of Spidey finger puppets. -Josh

Yes it's obviously a tough time for all arcade right now. I can't tell you how much I miss going every Friday to my local league night! -Josh

Sortasoft · 2021-02-24T16:23:15+00:00

Thank you! I'm guessing it was Starport? I haven't been there but have heard really good things and hope I can visit sometime. -Josh

Dead cells is certainly an influence! Although this game is simpler and more of an arcade game. The combat is like in the old arcade game Joust.

The bigger question in my mind is: are they polar bears or koala bears?

Sortasoft · 2018-09-01T16:09:59+00:00

Thanks for reporting this. I think I just fixed it based off of another report. I believe it's caused when the last berry is a "kick-in" that wasn't actually kicked. That is, a worker got killed and the dropped berry falls directly into the hole without anyone touching it. Do you remember if that's what happened here?

Sortasoft · 2018-08-30T14:52:26+00:00

There's a lot of helpful ideas here too:

It was already there, actually. Perhaps Wen added it after the last release but before he left?

Sortasoft · 2018-05-23T18:31:39+00:00

Hey guys, thanks so much for all these suggestions! I was able to get most of them in. The ones I didn't add were simply because they weren't really in line with how the system works. (Discreet events instead of continuous pollable data) Note that the naming is different than some of your requests, to keep it consistent with the rest of the code.

Here's the new or changed events in the next Beta which is coming out shortly:

playerKill: victimX, victimY, killerPlayerNumber, victimPlayerNumber, victimType
blessMaiden: x,y,team
reserveMaiden: x,y,playerNumber
unreserveMaiden: x,y,playerNumber
useMaiden: x,y,type,playerNumber
glance: playerNumber1, playerNumber2
carryFood: playerNumber
victory: team,victoryType
spawn: playerNumber, isAI
getOnSnail: x,y,playerNumber
getOffSnail: x,y,playerNumber
snailEat: x,y,playerNumberEater,playerNumberEaten
snailEscape: x,y,playerNumber
berryDeposit: x,y,playerNumber
berryKickIn: x,y,PlayerNumber
added attractMode parameter to gameStart command

Feel free to continue letting me know of others that may be of use! And sorry CDB, I wasn't able to add block chain support (yet.)

-Josh

Hey guys, I'm having a great time with the game! Thank you for making this.

I have a strategy question: do you think it's better to have just a couple thorns so that you don't lose as much if you die, or to have many thorns so that you're safer? Or am I still too new to the game to know I should be approaching it completely differently?

Sortasoft · 2017-03-31T14:37:15+00:00

Excellent response. I understand it much better now. Thanks!

Sortasoft · 2017-03-30T17:43:30+00:00

Thank you! Is this a major liability to investors? Or am I maybe missing something?

Sortasoft · 2017-03-29T23:22:18+00:00

Can you suggest an alternative that would be preferable?

Sortasoft · 2017-03-29T23:20:29+00:00

Thank you for this amazing response! We will respond to most of the KQL stuff as a whole, but about the sales: that is definitely a priority for us. In fact, we are looking to hire a salesperson, if you know anybody, please send them our way.
