Hmmmm, after finally watching the intro to Fez after all this time, where you play a pixelated character collecting fragments to change your perception of the world while wearing a magic hat.... makes my Joe2 storyline feel a little less unique

Sod unique, just make the game fun, and that'll be more than enough. If it's any consolation, everyone who initially saw Fez (way way way back when it was new!) considered it to be a Paper Mario rip-off, as they'd just released their 3D switching game.

(Although, having said that, I did pretty much give up on Sheep Goes Right, because Oh My Goat came out just as I was getting ready for launch.... )

Also, agreed, nowadays, nothing is really unique any more soooo don't let that get ya down

Joe's hat is a magicians top hat. Far more magical than a Fez.

Actually Joe 2 has been on hold for a little while, as has that other game involving two copyrighted characters in a game genre that would suit the storyline very well indeed (a couple of you know what that game is). I tried learning web stuff for a little while, but it isn't holding my attention very well now that I have a smart watch to play with. Why was I cursed with such a short attention span?!!!!!!!!

Oooh, a SmartWatch! Is it as mostly useless as I imagine?

It's handy (lol) for not taking your phone out of your pocket. You don't need your volume high, or even ON just so you don't miss calls ( i have a habit of not hearing my phone when it's in my pocket). Can read txts, change the clock face whenever you feel like without buying a brand new watch. I must say though, I'm glad I chose this one (Pebble) instead of the Samsung ones which range from completely useless, only work with one specific phone, cost more and need charging every 12 hours!

I like it, but would never pay ~$250 more for an Apple one that has to be charged daily and has a less readable screen (pebble is e-paper so is good for almost any light conditions).

|edit| If anyone has a pebble, you can get my first watchface here - https://apps.getpebble.com/applications/5415cb7aefd270336000018d
