Mostly because I don't have the ability to make it multiplayer without a week of learning.<BR/><BR/>Without the useful gameplay, there's nothing to set the game apart. My new version should be more fun.Craig Perkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13173752470581218239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11758224.post-1148303755840423512006-05-22T06:15:00.000-07:002006-05-22T06:15:00.000-07:00I agree with Patrick.

A single player mode just to learn the game would be good, especially if you can tweak the AI so that learning to defeat it points out some of the more interesting features of the gameplay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11758224.post-1148300544562694362006-05-22T05:22:00.000-07:002006-05-22T05:22:00.000-07:00Hey, don't be so hasty to throw out the single pla...Hey, don't be so hasty to throw out the single player. AI that has a clear counter for every move might not provide an endless depth of re-play value, but it seems to be entertaining for all but experienced players, and the challenge of infering the counter for each situation has a strong educational value to making players experts ready for multiplayer. <BR/><BR/>Go ahead and put in the sub-par AI, along with some decent writing and storyline, and you'll have a single player that serves as a nice intro to the full complexities of the game.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13614962832390315553noreply@blogger.com
