The Perfect Tower

     Recently I had gotten into a game called "The Perfect Tower". It is much like an idle game, yet it's also like a tower defense game. The reason I'm so into it, is probably because I love both idle and tower defense games. Typically while I play games like these, I normally gather ideas floating above me. That is how much I get into these games. Believe it or not I'm fairly picky about the games I play. I'm not much of a gamer, not like what I use to be. I use to be big into World of Warcraft, but not so much anymore, probably for the best.

     I've sent many developers ideas I get, sometimes I get as many to write them down on a piece of paper, that way I don't forget any. Sometimes I even spend a day or two just coming up with ideas for the games I play. I don't expect much, fantasizing is what I love doing. In fact, most of the time developers don't respond to me. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever gotten a response from ideas that I've sent in the past.

     Today wasn't like any other day though. I was up late last night, trying to reach the leader board for The Perfect Tower. There was a recent update changing many things, it was harder to get where I was able to before the bug fixes... the game was more challenging now. While it took me maybe two or three hours to hit wave 2000, I was thinking of new enemies we could encounter, I also thought of a few lesser things, but come around one in the morning; it was a late night for me, I finally lost at roughly round 2400.

     With the few ideas floating around my head, I decide to go ahead and send the developer a private message. I wasn't expecting much, I mean it's a pretty popular game and the chance of others messaging this person where high. A lot of times the developers get an overwhelming amount of messages, rather they are about the game or not. People these days don't take into consideration that programmers, or anyone that has a high rank on the popularity chart, don't have time to talk to people they don't know. The main time programmers will read of follow up on a message if it's about a bug seen in the game.

     I woke up this morning to start grinding materials used in the game to allow me to reach further waves. Luckily I don't have to stay at my computer to do this, the game is mostly an idle game, so I can just click start and go do something else while I wait to die, then I would come back and hit start again. However, before I started the game, I noticed a message. I figured it was just a message notifying me there was a recent update to a game I've favored.

     In shock I realized that wasn't the case. The developer had respond to me, I wasn't expecting what he side either. He rather enjoyed my ideas and said he would experiment with them though he wasn't sure when he would get to testing the ideas, because he had several other suggestions and bug fixes to work on. I don't really care if he tests them or not, but that wasn't all he said. As I kept reading he really like one of my ideas enough to tell me I will probably see it in the future. So that made my day today, I'm hoping to come up with more ideas for him as I know he will respond, though I should probably wait until he gets a few updates going and write ideas down to make one long message.

     For those who might enjoy the game here it is! The Perfect Tower the website is safe otherwise I wouldn't be using it.

Idle Games

     Tonight will be a small post, I got a bit involved with a pointless game or idle game. I was going to try and  set it up to where viewers could just play the game on my blog, but I can't with this one unfortunately. The game is called The Perfect Tower. It seems to be a strategy based idle game, which I haven't come across before. It is really challenging to get started and far enough to continue playing without dying.

     http://www.kongregate.com/games/XmmmX99/the-perfect-tower  the link is the best I can do, but I think I can add another idle game I was playing before I found this one. I also spend a good amount of my time today playing this game as well. It is called Runean Idle. For this game just buy runes and upgrades, that is really all there is to it. The point to these "pointless" games are just wasting time, and that they do... that they do.

Busy With World of Warcraft

     As I mentioned in my last post,  My Morning Friend, it's been a while since I have actually played World of Warcraft. I just got tired of it, and all the friends I played with stopped playing, so that just left me to farm items all the time. I don't enjoy meeting new people in the game, meaning I wont just do things like play versus player with a random person.

     I had also mentioned in my post Blogoholic what I had recently been doing in World of Warcraft. Basically I've been going around finding new gold making methods, which I haven't really spent a decent amount of time in any given location. More so just testing to see if loot is valuable, is so than how fast do the mobs spawn and so on.

     I only have enough screenshots for a little over sixty posts, which is good. If I ever get around to typing them up then I should be able to set the posts up to publish automatically. I'm hoping all is well for that so I can practically manage two blogs at once. Typically Once I start a new blog the others are just left to rot, and I will only update them every so often. I'm thinking of doing a post a day, mainly because I'm thinking of trying that with this blog as well.

     I'm getting enough ideas for posts that I should be able to just set down one day and type up a few weeks worth of posts, however, I'm sure there will be posts I delay to type one out for that day. I can't predict what the future holds for me. I'm sure there will be events happening along the way I would rather post than what was planned for that day.

     Anyways I enjoy making guides for World of Warcraft so much that I will probably be spending most of my day on the silly game. Not only are they guides, but they are guides no one else has covered, which is really nice. For me to find that many locations in the game as fast as I did, it's pretty inspiring for me nonetheless.

     The main reason I wanted to go over this post was because I look at things differently than other people, that is how I was able to find that many locations as fast as I did. I believe it has something to do with my anxiety of course. I can take a single item that can be crafted into several different things, and I will take my time, with a lot of patients and see is there is any profit to be had.

     Aside from being caught up in my game, I also got my cards all sorted, it took me a while, but I finally got them done, well... mostly anyways. They still need to bet put in binders, but that shouldn't take to long. I expect to have my Pokemon card collection post out tomorrow hopefully. As the second part to my senior year, I'm unsure at the moment. The thought of having a post over the same thing every week on the same day seems like a cool idea to me, and the only topic I can think of to do something like that is a weekly update.

     The bird from My Morning Friend ended up returning again this morning. It kept trying to get in my window since eight in the morning to I'd say around five this afternoon. I set my camera up to record it, though it seems to be a bit camera shy. Hopefully I got a small clip of the bird running into my window, but I haven't looked to see yet.
