MusicallyInspired Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 This is great. It could be a nice homage to the SQ4 hintbook! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Procestuous Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 I'll work on thumbnail ideas soon, but some ideas that come to mind include: "Most Popular Apps in the Galaxy" App finder "Roger Wilco's Rent a Janitor Emporium (Limited to residents of the Earnon Galaxy Only)" "Dancing with the Andromedans Voting" "Sal's Twinkies Diner" "Back Alley Keycards-for-Internal Organs Scalping, Inc" "Bender's Bending Service" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloatingPrawn Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 I could make an icon, but it would be quite awful. Maybe you'll like the idea alone, or maybe someone else will be inspired by my juvenile sense of humor. TabletToilet or iToilet or Toilet 2.0 or whatever, you get the idea "For when you have to go, on the go! Instructions: Place tablet on floor, squat, release and enjoy!." Reviews: 5 star: "Wow! Amazing, best app!" 1 star: "Didn't work, huge mess." 1 star: "Scam, is just ad for electronics cleaning service." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nockgeneer Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Well, as we all know, there needs to be a fart app. So let's call it.... Flat-u-lance An Odyne like farming game with bowel-turning action where you face off against feculant enemies blowing at you from every direction. Navigate through your field as monsters like Tough Chit, Wet Spade, Odipus, Silent Storm, Blovine the Bardbarian, Dumpster and Wind Breaker reek paths of destruction through your crops. With your trusty round rubber-headed lance, fight to keep your crops fresh. Each monster features their own individual noises and the ununiqe soundtrack feature will provide hours of enjoyment. Headphones optional. "Play it with your friends!" - BackBlastSS "Remember your headphones when you're at a funeral, speaking from experience here." - IamanIslandqq "the oter side 'f FUNN!" - BABOONS12345 "Don't forget to wipe" - HenryTurdman PS. Yes, the grammar errors and typos are intentional, and I have an svg of my terrible icon if you want too (I'm just not allowed to attach it here).

MusicallyInspired Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 To clarify, are these for a mock microtransaction system for the game? Like, "pay $0.99 for a hint, or $9.99 for the full walkthrough," or "$1.49 for a new skin for Rooter," or "$29.99 for the Earnon Galaxy DLC Expansion content," or "$4.99 to bypass one ingame puzzle" type of thing? Or just made up apps for the in-game universe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nockgeneer Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 There also needs to be a flashlight app with pro in the name and a giant long list of permissions. I can't come up with it all right now, but here's an idea for it: The Ultimate Flash Pro Lite (Demo) 50%OFF!! The official app to use your Camera's flash to light your way in the dark! Super bright - better than a real flashlight! FEATURES: * Turns your phone into a flashlight for over half a minute without overheating! * Light up anything within range of your flash * Keep your hands warm while holding it * Large, easy to use on-off button * Display keeps track of the flashlight's status * SUPER BRIGHT! REQUIRED PERMISSIONS: * Phone State & Address Book (To e.g. turn on or off when you're in a call) * Full Internet Access (To e.g. keep track of updates) * Admin Access (To integrate properly with your phone) pcj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicallyInspired Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Made-up apps for the in-game universe. Aww. The mock microtransaction idea would have been funnier :). Why I mentioned the SQ4 hint book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcj Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Aww. The mock microtransaction idea would have been funnier :). Why I mentioned the SQ4 hint book. It's an interesting idea. I just don't think we were looking for that sort of meta humor there. MusicallyInspired 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obscenemedia Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 If there's an app category section--Games Farm Feud Farm Feud follows the story of a small group of barnyard critters, and some mutual varmint acquaintances, who are fed up with life on the farm and are resistant to the inevitable journey to the slaughterhouse. Convinced that the farmer is controlling the minds of the other animals by drugging the food and water supplies, our heroes decide to take it upon themselves to gather up any weapon they can make or find, in the event they are forced to fight back against their captor and his hired hands. Unfortunately, they soon realize that their suspicions are correct and that the farmer's maniacal plans are more gruesome than they could have ever imagined -- building a partially-organic, somewhat-hormone-free, frozen meal empire. Faced with a future filled with severed limbs, fatal-levels of preservatives, cardboard coffins, and freezer burn, the time for escape is now. They must kill their way through a blockade of the farmer's obedient, zombie-like army who are compelled to prevent our heroes from escaping. Fling Kong From a long line of ruthless, blood-thirsty, killer apes, Fling Kong, the black sheep of the royal Kong family, terrorizes his way out of the zoo and across the city the only way he knows how—by throwing poo. Join the mayhem and light a match as you follow along Fling's escape from imprisonment. Exact revenge against your captors and antagonizers with an arsenal of stool consistencies guaranteed to leave a mark or at least, make a splat. Prepare to bear down and grunt your way through countless environments in this fecal-flinging, wildly-messy, obscene adventure. pcj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philhassey Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Hey, here's an app I put out a few years ago that I think would fit in nicely. Chickon "Help chickens battle robots to rescue totally stylin' roosters!" Enjoy, hope to see it in the game :) -Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott32 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Sir, is there any way you could reconsider the requirements for this contest? I think quite a few of us have great ideas, but no talent in Adobe Illustrator to create the logo. I am confident you would get more participation if it wasn't required to make a logo. How about a hand-made sketch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott32 Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Name: Random Weather Forecast Generator Description: How's the weather gonna be like tomorrow? Who cares! They'll be wrong anyway. After thousands of years of science development and technology, man has yet to master the art of weather prediction. Why take the time and effort to check the weather news when all you get is frustration and disappointment? Do yourself a favor and do it like the pros, take a guess and stick with it! If you guessed wrong, you could still blame it on El Nino. Reviews: NicePillows69: Hi! I kinda used your kinda weather forecast generator and it was kinda right sometimes! ZeRealElNino: Hey you! Do not use ze name of El Nino. There is only one El Nino. I AM ze REAL El Nino. Nice app though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
