For some, tomfoolery is just a way of life.
Enough standing around posing, back to the fun.

In the land of Tomfoolery a lie is being told.
Enough about us, back to the Ruse.

September 12th
We found the source of Foolishness, of Tricks and Fiendish fray
we studied It, we learned from It, and now we only play.
But each will play in its own way and take their chosen path
until they find both truth and lies and turn down glee for wrath.

This is where we buried It.

Dont bother getting comfortable, its never what you think
In Tomfoolery it always ends...with a grin, and a wink.
-Scoundrel rhyme

They dug It up.​

break the chains and free the slaves
so many times betrayed
we'll set It free and then you'll see
the Curse, the Crime, the Shade

The Great Change is coming. Don't miss it.​

Game info coming soon​

A Moon gets lost and a world is born. Welcome to Tomfoolery.

"Tomfoolery and the Ruse"
Prologue Part 1

A Moon got lost and fell to a distant world, Tomfoolery. Inside the Moon the native people discover the Three Great Treasures, Foolishness, Tricks, and Fiendish play. The Treasures had much to teach the people of Tomfoolery about the little joys in life. They learned all about the importance of fun, play, tricks, pranks and mischief. From that day Tomfoolery changed forever, into a place of constant silliness and foolishness. A world of smiles and laughter. However, once the Treasures were released from the Moon its awesome power tried to draw them back in. In an effort to keep their new friends the people of Tomfoolery buried it far beneath the surface.

Thanks to Foolishness, Tricks, and Fiendish play Tomfoolery is a happy place where seriousness is unheard of and every day is filled with play. The people are thankful that the Moon brought them such pleasure and over time have forgotten its strange desire to reclaim the Treasures.

The Moon only comes out at night.

"Tomfoolery and the Ruse"
Prologue Part 2

Over time the winds and water slowly washed away the ground until the Moon wasnt buried so deep anymore. By chance, or by fate, a group of children found it while playing in a river bed and not knowing what it was, opened it. With all its stored power and desire to reclaim what was once its own the Moon pulled the 3 children into itself and quickly closed, falling back into the river bed to be forgotten about once more.

Over the endless days trapped inside the soul of the Moon the children lost all hope, all knowledge of happiness and slowly began to change. Sustained by their hatred for the Moon and everything else the childrens form began to match that of their heart. Twisted and seething with malice and rage they forgot their own names, forgot their families, and focused on one thing; escaping their prison and unleashing their hatred on the whole world, making everyone suffer as they suffered.

Where there were three, there will be three more.​

[Xapphire]

[Sim]

Mind explaining a bit more?

What will be the features?

What do the screenshots mean?

What is it, why should I play it?

 

[Demonwrath]

*sigh* the absence of explanatory maps is little of late T_T

I want to know wth is with the screenies though....especially the comments under them :\

 

[Psiblade94122]

sigh, hes trying to release info about his maps in little bits, and WhoisJG please, i suggest editing your first post so the admins and other users wont get mad

dont worry, after wer finished with the bulk of the map, in shure he would have released enough info for you to peice things togeter

 

[The Helper]

He has one bump a day. No rule was broken. I like the suspense approach.

 

[Ghan]

> I like the suspense approach.

Mmmm... unknown maps.

I kind of like it, too. My interest is piqued.

 

[Sim]

> I like the suspense approach.

Looks nice and all but what are we supposed to do with that?

If he expects comments and feedbacks about his map...

 

[Psiblade94122]

lol someone actualy understood what he was trying to do ^-^ you guys rock! cookie for all of juuu

 

[Ghan]

Quite. This thread has my full backing. For now.

1st thing to be released? Genre, maybe?

 

[Atreides]

Meh I think that if you're make a post you should at least post something. Not necessarily a lot if you wanna do suspense like this. But something small that people could start the discussion with.

well, clearly it has sparked discussion, cos there are already 12 posts (last count) on this thread I thinks its a good tactic to take to build up suspense for the viewer... a lot of gaming companies do it nowadays and it seems to work

 

[IceWarrior98]

I think this whole thing is a ruse...If i'm right, do I get a cookie?

[Xapphire]

Am I the only one confused.. or is this just a picture rhyme..? Or a riddle or something..? Is this actually going to be a map or not.. O.O?
If not then In my opinion it should be in the Creative Writing section, if it is, please inform me of it's properties.. ..

 

[Pigger]

I have a feeling it will be a map, he is merely building up the suspense for it.

 

[Knocksious]

WhoIsJG, your name is fitting for the truly puzzling questions you pose

not only do we not know the answers
we don't even know the questions to answer

+rep, even if this goes nowhere, you are my new hero

 

[seph ir oth]

Truely amusing!

I hope whatever you are making turns out splendid! My guess is that its a riddle map
