Hi! Just thought I’d drop by and tell you how I did with the Neverland Game. Well, I did get the Adobe Reader, and it worked just fine. I also finally got my printer working, but for some reason, it wouldn’t print the game from the Reader. So, what I did was copy and paste the whole game to Microsoft WordPad, and fiddled with it. Mainly, all I did was change the word size to 10, then change the font to New Times Roman, my favorate reading font. Then, I straightened up the sentences so that they wrapped around the page better, and removed all the “Neverland: The Imagination Game: Page ##”. In WordPad, the numbers wouldn’t make much sence, anyway, since they were appearing in the middle of sentences and the like.

After all that, guess what? I managed to shrink the whole thing down from 71 pages to 26 pages! ^_^ Which is good, cause that saved a lot on ink. Anyway, I printed it out, and saved a copy to my hard-drive and to disk.

The copy-write is still intact, however. If anyone asks me for it, would it be okay to give them a copy of the WordPad version? If it isn’t, just tell me, and I won’t. But I’ll still keep the WordPad copy for myself, in case I have to take the Acrobat Reader off my comp. for some reason. (After all, the ONLY reason I got the Reader in the first place was to read the Neverland Game, anyway…)

It’s a wonderfull game! ^_^

It’s a PDF. You need the free Acrobat Reader to open it. Be sure you have the latest version.

Except that the rulebook is all in gibberish on my computer. Or is it in another language? Is there any way to clear this up, please? Thank you.

Thanks, Philip! I’m feeling my way through this, but it’s nice to know I’m headed in the right direction.

Looks like a fantastic way to launch your site, Matt! I’ll have to point this out on my website.

Hi Greg:

Hi Matt! Love the website, gonna love the game, and Brave New World lives!

By the way, want to appear in Gaming Guardians in a very special cameo? If you’re interested, I’ll share the details. I think you’ll get a chuckle out of it.

Hi Brian ;

Thanks! It’s always good to hear from you.

Actually, Jason Blair at Key 20 Publishing is bringing Justifers back. You can find the website at http://www.key20.com/kyp4000/index.html. Apparently Clifford VanMeter (who published the original version of the game under the name “Gideon”) will be involved with the new version too. It should be out sometime next year.

Merry Christmas!

Matt

Matt,

Justifiers was one of the first RPGs I really toyed with mechanics wise. Also, the game is back in publication by the guy who originally started Starchilde albeit under a new name (cannot remember it now.

Look forward to more of your great stuff!!!

BNW lives!
