I have a good idea. I won't release the hack officially on the board. I will release it to the people who want to play it, and also post it on my site. This way, I can be sure to get the input from the people who actually want to play it. That sounds good. |

Now after all this, THAT will get you hurt.

Trust us. Your hack is great. If problems arise, you'll be the first to know.
You don't need 300 pages or even 2 pages to your threads. I recognize your name based on your previous hacks, that have a permanent home in my Hacks folder. Those had little, or nothing to do with any reply to any thread. Those came from you. You make your hacks. I'll continue to play. I may not always post it, but trust me. Alot of people feel the same way.
Ok, I'm done recapping my feelings. Just pummeling you into submission. Sometimes brute force is the only thing kids understand these days.

Thank you, that seemed to give me the most motivation. Even if no one plays it, I still enjoy playing my own levels. I will continue to make this hack...I may not even release it though . I'll just keep it all to myself . |

Bleh. Do not let the replies, or lack thereof in a message board guide your hack. If you are making this hack for anyone other than yourself, which it appears like you are, you are doomed to fail. Not because you lack talent, but because you made it for the wrong reasons, and let the wrong reasons decide it's fate. I thought the hack was just fine. I didn't reply because I found nothing wrong with it. I had no questions, and it was just a demo. I had no suggestions. It was coming along nicely. When your threads DO start filling up with people suggesting things, or reporting problems, then you should worry, not the opposite. Your hack is doing fine. People WILL tell you if it's in trouble.
If I were to reply to every cool thread I came across, I'd be banned for spamming. Even if it's not that drastic, it's just not my thing to reply to everything with "Gosh, good job! Keep it up!". Cliche and boring. Nobody wants to read through 3 pages of someone saying "Nobody likes my hack because I don't 3 or 4 pages of replies. I'm cancelling it!" If you were making this hack for yourself (like you are supposed to be doing) then things like that wouldn't matter to you, and you wouldn't let that stand in your way, your way of creating your best work yet. Don't continue on that path.
As for new graphics, do as you please. New or old graphics, it's your talent that makes the hack great or not. If you feel you can wow us without new graphics, then don't add them in. If you feel you need new graphics to wow us, then add them in. It's that simple.
Oh, and don't forget....
Good job, keep it up! |

But I don't want to put new gfx in YI. I thought the original gfx would do good enough  . I hope people don't expect me to put new gfx in it, since I have no intention of doing so. |

Not yet. At least in eggvine its not.. Maby through hex, but other than that no. I was just saying that if it was possible, it would make his hack original and special. Look at schwa. He (says) made the first MM4 hack, and people loved it. So if GoYo was the first to make a YI hack with new graphics, that would be awesome. He did after all make the first YI made with eggvine. |

No, that was Juggling Joker. I suck at making graphics, which is why I want to avoid it at all costs in YI. |

You know what would give your hack 100% recognition, a new thread with the title "SMW2+ Demo--New YI graphics!!"
People need to see some new graphics instead of the same YI graphics. However when I tried out your hack, THAT IS HOW THE YI GRAPHICS SHOULD BE USED!!
I agree with aioria aswell. Your hacks are very well done, Your the one who made that candy SMW hack right. I think you were and that hack was amazing. I do however think that if you make another YI hack, it will probably need to have new graphics or something else so it REALLY stands out.
You also have to remember that people are in school now (Canadians just started today, well at least I did..) and some people have jobs now. So this board will be less active than during the summer.
Anyway, I hope you contine with your hack I love your level designs, especially the cave levels |

I know you were. I just don't feel confident about the hack. |

What? You think after this ordeal I feel 100% confident that the next demo will be successful? No, not really. And yet, I still don't really have any feedback on my hack, whether certain parts needed work, or if any part in particular was nice. I am aware of the bugs Jesper reported though.
geez i was just trying to help  |

Yay!
And I agree with Aioria. Noone's said anything bad about your hack. All you've gotten is praise. Brighten up. |

I won't post any new screens on the board though. I don't want to bother anyone anymore. If you are interested, just check at my site to see if there are any new screens. I still don't feel this is the right decision. I have a feeling that the next demo isn't going to go over well either...

Alright, I will continue it. I'll let the lack of replies go for now, but if it gets ignored the next time around then I'll definitely know I am wasting my time. Although I would like to hear more specific comments, about level design, difficulty, bugs and what not, I know this hack can't be perfect. |

Now I feel like I'm pulling teeth to get people to play this hack. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause any trouble. It's just that no one would've replied to this hack if I hadn't brought up the subject of cancelling it, which I still intend to do. Not just because I didn't get replies, because I don't feel like YI Hacking anymore, and I got school and stuff. I don't mean to draw so much attention myself, I expected that no one would care when I said I was cancelling it.
This is no trouble at all. The reason we do this is because noone expected you to cancel it, we just figured you'd be busy continuing to develop it so that's why there wasn't too many posts, as far as I can see. I claim myself guilty of just posting one post about how great a hack is in the first thread I see about it, and just keep shut for basically the rest of the hack's lifetime, unless there are significant advances.
And yes, whatever -did- happen to putting things on hiatus? Your hack is loved by many people in this forum, so that's not the real issue (even if you think it is - I haven't spoken to one user here that doesn't think your hack is any less than awesome). The issue is probably that you're busy. That's okay. We'll still be here waiting for the next release, which will come when it's ready. And if you're still undecided, you can still put it on hiatus and just deal with it when your life is less busy. |

We will be sad AND mad if you cancel it |
