Scrat Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Incase you needed another pointless distraction, why not add in portable game systems? Maybe you could find them lying about or print them off in Research, and find game cartridges in space, around the station, or again make them in R and D. The HTML claw game recently added had me thinking that such a thing is possible. Games could be stuff like Snake, Pac-Man, Tetris, Space Invaders, etc etc, all with a Nanotrasen twist of course. If this is a possibility in the fossil of a game engine we use, it'd be sure neat to see!

FalseIncarnate Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Laptops were initially intended to have a game cartridge or something they can use, though laptops have more or less been abandoned as a project. However, with some work, it definitely could be possible to give laptops some love and add games like you suggested to them, fulfilling both your suggestion for a portable game and giving laptops another reason to consider wasting your hard-earned credits on.

Scrat Posted December 11, 2015 Author Posted December 11, 2015 Ah, even better. Unless you're in some high position, the use of laptops is gimmicky at best. Only thing is, who would be willing to do it? Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/6148-game-device/#findComment-47823 Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidchan Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 I've always wished that some version of Nibbles(Worm) or Tetris could be played on the PDAs to pass the time. As for laptops, detective can get decent use out of them, nobody else really needs them.

Spacemanspark Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 I use laptops as a security officer to utilize the cameras instead of patrolling sometimes. Also, I wouldn't mind a game device with cartridges. Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/6148-game-device/#findComment-47837 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kharshai Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Laptops are a Detective's best friend, and having some game device on them or PDAs would be great for those shifts where absolutely nothing happens.

Plotron Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 As for laptops, detective can get decent use out of them, nobody else really needs them. Captain has the most capabilities with it and don't forget about the HoP. Sometimes I give myself Captain Quarters access as HoP just so I can announce things on the move using the laptop.

Tauka Usanake Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Offtopic: Can someone make a guide on laptops? I barely have a clue as to what you can do with them and its sounding like there's a lot more that can be done with them Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/6148-game-device/#findComment-47906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
