I've not been able to figure out why some people have long load times and not others. Also, it seems to grab more memory on some systems than others and I have no idea why it would need so much anyway - it's hardly cutting-edge graphics. It's the downfall of a generic engine, I guess. Kolzig: I don't think I charged you enough.

I can't exactly remember how much the game cost, but I know I found it much richer than I'd expected at first, so I definitely didn't feel cheated.

So can we order our action figures already? :-P
Hope it all takes a turn for the better, and if/when you do turn it around, do let us know what worked.

I guess what I'm saying is that there are a lot of people out there who WOULD enjoy a game like Mr. Smoozles- but they don't know it exists because they don't hang out with "gamers." As for the price, I don't think it was too much. Most Americans think nothing of spending $20 for something. A trip to the movies with popcorn and soda costs more than that. |

Hi Steve. Have you tried to advertise this game with big websites like gamespot, gamespy or IGN or maybe even Yahoo! games? There are only this many adventure gamers and a lot of them are more into the traditional adventure game than the arcade title. Also someone suggested XBOX Live. I think that's a great idea if you can find someone to port it for you. I've seen so many PC games I've never heard of before make the jump, and they are now getting reviewed on all the major websites, and probably getting downloaded many times. If you can get it there, you will get tons more exposure than even tryint to sell it on a CD, and without the need for any advertisement

Late in this thread, but hey - I didn't even find out about the game until yesterday.
I love the game. I'd happily buy a CD version of the game with or without extras (though extras would certainly be nice). |

The revival of this thread is a bit of a surprise. Maybe I should think about it a little more...

If this thread was in the main adventure forum, it'd get a lot more attention.
I know that this isn't seen as a "pure" adventure, but I raise this in rebuttal: Police Quest is viewed as a suitable topic for the adventure section of this forum, but it has as much maze chasing, death, and points giving as Mr. Smoogles Goes Nutso. I don't see any difference between the Mr. Smoogles chase scenes and the driving scenes in PQ (other than the fact that the arcade sequences in Mr. Smoogles goes Nutso don't make you want to throw your keboard across the room ). I definitely feel the game should be treated as an adventure title, and as such this thread should be moved to the main adventure forum. Last edited by CaptainDread; 05-28-2007 at 11:21 AM. |

Oh, it's definitely an adventure, just not a "pure" adventure. That's why I call it an arcade adventure. I should have created it for the DS.
