Nice.

I got into the Trainz beta on xbox.  So far it's some tutorial scenarios that are pretty limiting in what you can do. I wish I could just free roam around.  That being said it's looks really nice on a 4k TV and seems pretty smooth.

Microsoft has already provided me with a code for a free copy of Gears of War Reloaded. I still can't believe they're giving away a free copy of the game to owners of Gears of War Ultimate Edition.

I've been waiting for something like this for a while. I would have been happy with arcade ports of the first three games, but they're including the Genesis and SNES ports of the first three too.

Hopefully at some point. Work has been really sucking away most of my free time recently.

You going to start programming it again?

Yes, that's exactly how it worked, but the outcome of the game was based strictly on luck. In the future I'll add traits, weapons and a magic/shield/sword option for encounters where:

Shield beats sword, sword beats magic, magic beats shield.

So then the higher roll would win with the one that had the d100 obviously having a higher chance of winning?  That's simple and clever and can be finely adjusted to tweak the chances as well. 

There's a baseball dice game called Deadball that uses something similar to determine wins if you wanted to just sim the game results instead of playing bat by bat.

I did think it was a computer game. The combat sounds like a more complex version of the text adventures I used to program back in the 80's and then again with Python back in 2019. My games only used a single dice role (random generator) for combat with stronger characters having a higher random range (1 - 100) versus a weaker character having a lower range (1 - 75).

I've thought about moving to a type of rock/paper/scissors combat in future games to add a little more strategy.
