RE: YOU Can Help Bring Outwitters Back!
If we tried, we could probably come up with enough ideas and artwork (Chemoeum) to make OW2. All OML would have to do is program it (which may be the hardest part haha)

I know you're being sarcastic, but I couldn't help but laugh because this is how the world sees all software engineering. A bunch of project managers and business guys get in a room and think they've done all the hard work when they think of some vague overarching idea. They think software just has to "code it up real quick" and it'll be done...

Ugh.

Still, we do help those chances go up. It's just a little fun time that might actually work. They do have a point, which in real life doesn't apply as much as it does in the movies.

I totally agree - I'm sure it's very beneficial to have ideas flowing. I was just poking fun at "All you have to do is...", because that's pretty much how many managers will start a conversation with engineers. Smile

Software Development: Hard
Game Design: Hard
Drawing GUI Buttons: HAAAAAARD

There's so much hard stuff involved in making a game, you guys don't even know.

Um... That's what she said? Huh

Given the amount of moving parts in Outwitters (both client and server infrastructure), it's not a trivial thing to do. Anyone that can execute a fan game would probably be better served just making their own game and selling that.
