Recently returned from the past, just wondering what’s new really in terms of games as well as techniques for clicking.

Any new uber extensions I should acquaint myself with? I was quite impressed with the idea with detectors inbuilt into an object using spare animations, something i recently picked up

I would like to also give a shout out to anyone that remembers me, as well as wishing everyone is OK

Got back into klik as me and my partner in nonsense have decided to make another game after around 3 years of inactivity. Our game is just starting in terms of development and is a remake of our very first game we made, “Bert’s Adventure in Semi 3D” (not too sure when me made the First Bert game but it was pre windows 95 and knp!)

The new game is currently under the Title “Bert and The Raiders of the Last Cheese Cob”

n.b. semi 3D is a in house joke

Project page soon to appear for anyone that is interested in what will be likely our last game.

Cheers Rikus - come back to make one last game or two . Me and my comrade in making games drifted apart (women, careers, degrees) but things have calmed down enough now to come back to making games... Hopefully in a couple of years i should be Dr . Then i will be qualified to wear a scarf and eat jelly babies...

@adam/Dr James lol i was hagar! Hayo, Ashman, Buster, Jenswa, Steve Harris and myself all came here after the closure of iklik-it.com.

I can remember having a forum chat with Dr James I am sure it was. If memory serves me right you had a (and hopefully still have) Triumph Spitfire... I now have numerous old cars, as well as a rather awful modern day Polo. Truely the worst car I own in terms of reliability.

I dont think that was me , i seem to remember "Santas Most Festive Adenture" and "Malcom on the Roof" and a asteroids rip off. There was more too. Mostly demos as once i did a couple of levels I usually got bored .

Changed my name so i am more recognisable .

I actually trust my old cars more than my Polo . 'Best' one was clutch cradle breaking but at least VW admitted it was a well known fault and fixed it for free. Numerous other faults too like the ignition coil melting into weird foam stuff. Needless to say I shall never buy a VW again...

Next everyday motor is going to be a short wheel base land rover defender, Tax exempt (pre 72) but fitted with the modern land rover defender gear (engine, gearbox, seats, etc), this is quite common, and before Ford put the transit diesels in (i.e. Fit the 200 or 300 TDi you can get 28-30 MPG out of them).

Some guy down the road has an old Landrover Defender, uses it as his main car so they must be built well.
Yea my plan now is to either get a Peugeot 308 (had one as a courtesy car since our 807 was in the garage AGAIN) or get a Spitfire MkIV with completely new everything, and iPod compatible radio . And then match it with a vintage 1960's Gibson SG.

So what else have you been up to in recent years?

@hayo: we are the last few I think . Rycon was around here for a bit but then he dissapeared too.

@James and anyone interested: Got my degree, then a masters. Then I went to this 'orrible place called work. It sucks. I was working as a designer (electronics) but after a year and a bit I had enough. Now doing a doctorate, and growing my hair long again

@W3R3W00F : ta

Also finally found a woman that will put up with my nonsense!

Last thing I heard from Rycon was that he got married (at 20 or so),had a job (something with computers) and didn't make games anymore.

Thats made my day , and makes me feel old. It's also true . There is even a post from the dude that ran iklik (peter) thanking you

I found Peter's email years ago when iklik closed and asked if we would let me have the forum db and site so I could get it running on a new server. He never replied, then I seem him trying to sell it on some webmasters forum... Not much point now for 3 people .

@jthongbai: Thanks

Yeah, he first tried selling it to Steve Harris for a pretty outrageous sum, then disappeared. The domain name is now available but I guess there's no point setting it up again. It would be the Fontainebleau Hotel of klik.

I guess your right, a shame though. I just found about GB is there any other community sites while I have been away?

Our other idea was actually an iklik-it based game, imagine the blues brothers putting the band back together but with iklik vets

GB will get a lot bigger and better soon. An Iklik-it regroup for a game sounds good. But we have to get Jenswa out of prison, talk Rycon out of his job and marriage and find out where heck Buster and Ashman are.

Hah, I'm surprised I still remember a lot of the names from the old days.

Anyway, welcome back. I think klikers are a bit more mature now, though it kinda depends what you mean by mature. You'd be hard-pressed to find even one person trying to use trigonometry in their games 5 years back, but a lot of people are going that way these days. That line between amateur game making and real coding is blurring more these days

@ Hayo: Hahaha. you forgot tomatoman! There was also vegenad as well. Shame Buster and Ashman are missing . There is somebody on facebook with Ashmans name (if i remember it right from his games), and he is even australian. klikking is an odd thing, very hard to give up. I brought MMF2, but have yet to use it in anger... Only used it for a few bits of software for my studies (serial object is a godsend ).

Getting all iklikkers active could be the premise of the game...


@ Muz: Cheers Muz. To be honest its not maturity in game making that bothers me - just a good atmosphere in the comnmunity to be in. That is something Iklik-it.com had, and I think most of us was using inbuilt movements back then or very crude custom movements - well that was my level of expertise then anyway . I'm not saying inbuilt movements are good (they really stink), just that it was just fun and nice to make games in that community back then. Its hard to explain why iklik-it was so good but it was . I should right some articles, my skills in maths have come on leaps and bounds whilst doing my masters and now phd.

I am also working with a guy from your country, if i remember your country right

haha i kinda gathered that back then . I can remember a HUGE thread on the boards with me and him talking about cars - me pro car and him anti car. I guess the netherlands public transport system does not smell of or contain urine .

My friends just been to Amsterdam, said he really like it especially for the 'herbal' roll ups , purely for medicinal purpouses of course. I went to germany last year - the only bit of Europe I have been too... People thought i was german too

Public transport is pretty horrible here. His idea of travelling without a car was me picking him up all the time. I pointed out this meant twice as much driving and he is getting his drivers license now

haha I have a green friend (as in enviromentalist type guy) and his idea was the same, me picking him up on way to work even though it meant more driving . He is also learning to drive now.

I guess public transport is horrible everywhere then... I dont think people would mind it so much if it was reasonably clean and not so awfully slow. Getting to uni was 15-20 mins in my car and 1 hour 30 on bus sometimes more.

Oh man don't I know that . My university travels involved me walking from one city to another. Sometimes the whole trip would take up to 2 hours. But I guess thats what iPods and DS's were invented for.
Only took an hour in the car through city traffic.

In my case it's either spending and hour and a half in the bus and metro, or get stuck in a traffic jam. I almost mastered playing FF4 and driving my car at the same time now.
