Hello forums~
I need help, when I open steam the 'connecting to account' thing comes up and about thirty seconds later I get a 'steam isn't responding' and an appcrash under the name 'AppHangB1'.
I've googled it and reinstalled but nothing is helping.
Thanks for help in advance.

Games / The Humble Botanicula Debut Bundle

« on: April 19, 2012, 12:19:35 PM »

A brand-new adventure game from Amanita Design. Botanicula has players adventuring as a motley band of tree creatures trying to save their home from parasitic invaders.

...Plus Amanita Design's award-winning hits and more. Amanita Design's unique vision shines in the atmospheric Samorost 2 and Machinarium. Pay more than the average price, and you'll also receive the full-length feature film Kooky (with art direction by Amanita Design founder Jakub Dvorský), and Vectorpark's puzzle-art game Windosill! And soundtracks for the Amanita Design games are included!

Pay what you want. If you bought these games separately, it would cost around $53, but we are letting you set the price!

You can support charity. Choose how your purchase is divided between the developers and the habitat conservation charity World Land Trust. And if you like this deal, a tip to Humble Bundle would be much appreciated!

General Discussion / Blockland Talent Show: Who Would Be Interested?

« on: April 06, 2012, 02:50:00 PM »

Hi there guys, just making a topic here (no way) to see who would be interested in a blockland talent show type of thing. It would be more of a 'send clips in' audition thing but I don't really know. Maybe me and a couple of judges pick the best ones and then they have to perform live or something. I don't have any details on how this would work but I'm just seeing what the interest is.

For talents - I dunno. I know some of you can do really neat stuff on blockland. Maybe events, rocket jumping, a new mod especially for this that does something completely unique in every way shape and form, speed building that sorta stuff.

So would any of you want to help or show a talent off or as such. It wouldn't be a commitment or anything I'm just seeing the interest. It'd be cool to make a YouTube video/series based off of the thing. :o

General Discussion / What happened to good knife tdms?

« on: February 26, 2012, 01:11:44 PM »

I really don't know what happened. Now the only knife tdm I go to has grapple. Does anyone else remember the time it was just you and your knife?  It was better, now it's simply who can run away and sneak up on who.

Do any of you remember my really incredibly small knife tdm? It was so small the round was short but sweet and everyone was constantly in the game, and yet there was still a winner. Now it's just pro longed with everyone grappling.

Some of you probably generally hate knife tdms but if you did like them, which are better? Grapple or non-grapple.

Games / Starbound Megathread

« on: February 22, 2012, 01:59:06 AM »

A story within a sandbox

Starbound begins with you fleeing your homeworld in a space shuttle, just as it’s destroyed by an unknown enemy. With nothing to guide it, the escape pod shoots into space without direction, becoming hopelessly lost in a sea of stars. As luck would have it, the space shuttle makes contact with an abandoned space station and an adventure begins that will take you hurtling across the universe. Starbound contains both quests and story driven missions, buried inside its vast sandbox universe.

The Space Station

The space station in Starbound is sprawling and full of potential. Throughout your travels you’ll find ways to upgrade and repair it, restoring it to its former glory. You’ll need to find a crew, conduct research, catch rare creatures, and unlock its multitude of facilities. From a factory capable of producing mechs to labs where captured enemies can be studied and trained, the space station contains everything you need to explore the universe.



Endless Planets to visit

Planets in Starbound are entirely procedurally generated and filled to the brim with unique content. We went into the planet generation with one simple goal: no two planets should be the same. By procedurally generating even the smallest details, we’re doing just that. Not only is the terrain of the planet procedurally generated, but the weather, the gravity, the difficulty level, the plant life, the behaviour and appearance of alien creatures, and much more all contain random or procedurally generated elements.

We want you to feel like an explorer!

Because we’re working so hard to make each planet unique, we want to give you the tools to catalogue the things you find and make sure absolutely everything you find has depth in the world. Much like old school point and click adventures, absolutely every object in the world, right down to the trees and flowers, can be examined for a description.

See a weird alien tree? Examine it! Maybe you’ll discover something about its use! For any explorer, sharing discoveries is important. So whilst the game is fully coop (Bring your friends along! Form an expedition!) you can also record your findings in an electronic logbook. Not only that, but each and every planet has unique coordinates in the Universe that you can share online, so other players can check out exactly what you found!



Finding a new home

Exploring is wonderful, but everyone needs a place to call their own. That’s why we’re letting you claim an entire planet!

When you claim a planet as your new homeworld, a whole new aspect of gameplay opens up. Everything that makes a planet unique is at your command. Feel like changing the weather? Build a weather centre! Don’t like the terrain? Terraform it! Every aspect of the planet is under your control. Once you’re happy with it, start populating it with characters you’ve met in your travels and take care of them! They’ll have needs and desires and won’t hesitate to ask for your help if they require assistance.

This is only just scratching the surface of what we have in store for you in Starbound.

Yes, it's copy + pasted.
This game is supported by the Terraria support since they have now stopped updating Terraria.

Suggestions & Requests / Dead Lobby

« on: February 21, 2012, 02:05:39 PM »

Basically an addon that intergrates with deathmatch.
When you die, there is a special spawn brick for anyone dead to go to. They are not counted as in the game though.

Off Topic / 1969 Moon Landing Poem

« on: February 12, 2012, 03:06:00 PM »

So for a school competition we have to write a poem or an essay or something on a specific event in the last 125 years (pretty restricted ehy?) so I picked the 1969 space landing. Since we've been doing poetry in school recently we were 'encouraged' to do a poem for it, so I did. This is getting graded and I just want opinions on mine. I'm only 12 (nearly 13) so it's not a master piece but I think I did okay. Here it is;


1969 Moon Landing
by Freeze

It's the year 1969,
and everyone's excited.
Everyone has a shiver going right down their spine.
Because the rocket is about to be lighted.

Three, two, one,
And the rocket went up,
the explosion of fire was as bright as the sun,
and the noise was as heavy as a ton.

As the gravity leaves,
the men start to float,
they are as light as leaves
and as silent as a flowing moat.

The rocket lands,
then three men get out,
they are given their commands.
They go exploring right out.

The dune buggy goes, very very fast,
over the rocks and the caverns, and all of that stuff.
Not one single piece of moon is grassed.
They were homesick, but that's just tough.

They dropped a feather and a weight
They touched at the same time,
One of mans greatest achievements
Now it was time.

The rocket comes plummeting down,
droping right down from space.
The ship it turned so rusty, it turned completely brown!
It hit the water like a mace.

The men are given medals,
from the president himself!
The moon dust stung like nettles
Clinging to themselves.

The human race keeps evolving,
as it always does,
We always keep exploring.
But everything is always as it was.


Constructive criticism only please! :D
Rhyme scheme is ABAB if you didn't notice.
