Request for ASCII gears
alt.ascii-art
· 17 messages · 17 Apr 2009 - 2 May 2009
I'm working on a project, and I need some ascii gears/cogs. I have no talent myself and have been relying on automatic converters. However, the smallest usable gear I can generate is 30x30 -- and that's way too big. If anybody posts some decent smaller gears, I'll give credit in my game. (It's going to be a multiplayer roguelike type thing) References: http://woodgears.ca/gear_cutting/template.html http://www.dotcog.com/image_rotator/images/cog_sign.jpg http://sidewayscycles.co.uk/i/00/04/58.jpg Thanks

The first town, Cyphen, is a sort of dead-zone afterlife you end up in for various reasons. Picture a town covered with snow, streetlamps, factories, and a clock tower. Trolley tracks creep their way across the river and thrown the city. That puzzle is a large fountain-like structure in which players collaborate to first tune the guitar by rotating the gears (which are too large right now, making the rest of Cyphen too large) and then press patterns on frets. The game itself (currently but not finally titled PerlRL, perl roguelike) is a multiplayer roguelike, so see nethack/crawl/adom/tome for great examples of the genre. PerlRL currently has a sort of steampunk flair to it, but that's rapidly getting blended with my newer ideas.
