Hiya all,

I'm working on a game called Dumbo and Cool - screenshots at [href]http://www.drewsgames.com/temp/[href]

I've decided that when you save a caged guy, their name should come up with something akin to "You just saved ....!" The only problem is, I need names! Would anybody like to be immortalised?

The following need not apply, for their names are already being used:
(sorry guys, you're the first lot that came to mind)



Anybody else?

Dumbo and Cool - August 31st, $9.99
Also this year - Oddworld RTS
Next year... The Old Remedy 2 and Scarecrow!

"Jess" - Now, that is an abstract name if ever I've heard one!

( And I don't mind if it's used for a girl )...

Or, maybe just JT, or JTicular...

Don't forget the Indesctructable Jimmy.

The Indesctructable Jimmy is that piece of toast that lies there on the ground and if you get to close you explode.

That would make a damn funny hidden level/cheat or something. Lots of flying toast and stuff.

Yeah.. but when it (you) explodes, you multiply into lots of other pieces of toast... hence lots of flying toast.

Alright, the list is:



Some problems though; the game only features 17 places for names; there are more than 17 names! I'll have to get rid of some, sorry

Also, there was talk of people wanting to be winged creatures and exploding toast - that's not possible, all the characters you save are the same, generic, purple guy >>

No more please! Thanks everyone!
