Company name voting will go until tomorrow then I’ll start on games.
If no one votes for a company name, we might end up being boring studios 2.
How about Boresoft?
If we’re gonna go with a bore pun. My vote would be for Boretendo.
i second Boretendo.
Boreny.
Microbore oh god I could do these all day.
Boradox Games
Borenami, creators of such classics as Castle-meh-nia and Silent Dull.
I wish I knew how to pun.

Anyway I’ll throw a vote for Boretendo just so we have a large enough frontrunner to get started.
If we do go with the Nintendo pun, we’d be able to do a pretty decent job of nintendo game and puns I think. Go with a Adventure Ninja game and call it Ninja Gaiden. Normal on the Microx SX
If anyone can make a pun out of that that’d be cool.
Update 2 - Boretendo rises.
: So, thank you for hiring me. When boring studios went under I was worried.
: No worries!
: I’m glad to be working for… uh, what did you decide to call your studio?
: Boretendo.
: Oh, wonderful! (Better keep that resume up to date…)
: Anyway, here is our staff:
Gilly Bates
S. Presso
Callie Fornia
Amy Less
: We are currently lacking a Graphics Artist, but we will build on that as we expand.
: It’s wonderful to meet all of you. Oh, this arrived as well.
Game Guy Magazine
Competition in the game industry continues to heat up as newcomer Boretendo enters the market. We look forward to seeing what they have in store for us. It will need to be impressive to make an impact in this crowded market.
: Hah, I’ll show them. Team, it’s time to make a game!
Hi, this is DarkSysL, since Educational and Trivia are both Genre types, I can’t stack them. I have substituted historical instead. If this is an issue, please let me know.
Carmen Sandiego
Stage 1: Writing - Amy Less!
Stage 2: Graphics - Outsourced!
Stage 3: Sound - Callie Fornia!
Stage 4: Debugging!
Stage 5: Publishing!
Box Art:
Carman Sandiego is the history of cars in Sandiego. Join us in this all ages educational game, learn about the combustion engine.
: Uh, boss?
: It’s fine! Not everybody listens to the critics. Let’s see how our first game sells!
: Well, we have fans now at least. I guess there is a market for 25-40 year old woman and 13-18 year old men to like car facts??
One week later
: So, how’d we do on sales?
: Carmen Sandiego’s first week of sales was 15,596 units. We ranked… off the charts.
: That’s grea–
: As in we did not make it on the charts.
: Oh. We’ll just have to try harder next game!
: It seems a magazine wrote about us.
: Our first game sold 45, 316 units. That’s not bad for our first time out.
: Time to strike while it’s hot!

Europa Galactica: A galaxy-sized strategy game that tells the story of space empires. In space. They also have a lot of expansion packs, one of which adds the Andromeda Galaxy.
Having seen the box art for Carmen Sandiego, I would like to change my title from Ninja Gaiden, to specifically, Ninja Guy Den.

If I’m not mistaken. You need to spend some money in order to get dev kits for the new consoles? I’ll leave that to DarkSysL to decide on if we move to these new consoles. If I’m wrong then that’s cool! We should maybe sue Intendro though. Their name is incredibly similar to ours.

Alright, let’s get all experimental on this bad boy.
Title: Pole Position in One
Genre: Racing
Type: Golf
Style: Focus on Niche Appeal and Innovation, plus a few points to Polish.
As far as platform goes, I’ll leave that up to you.
Update on the 28th.
Get those games in!
Delay due to cold then Zelda.
Updates on hold while it has my soul.
So it turns out my android emulator has issues, the game has become unstable and crashes on excitement events now.
I’m going to have to end this let’s play and come back sometime with a game on a more stable platform.
Sorry guys.
