Spandex Force v0.2
The game formerly known as Truth, Justice and Spandex is now known as…Spandex Force! No need to tell me that you preferred the old name – I agree completely. But there’s not a single feasible way to find a domain for that name! Truthjusticeandspandex.com? Don’t be ridiculous. Justiceandspandex.com? Nooo. Spandexjustice.com? Dude, it’s starting to sound like a strange fetish site. So, spandexforce.com it is. Which incidentally also sounds strangely like a fetish site.
Game Info
Spandex Force is a unique puzzle/adventure/RPG game that lets you create your own hero to clean up the crime-infested town of Vigilance Valley. Follow your hero’s quest to rid Vigilance Valley of vicious villains such as the Blizzard Wizard, the inept riddler Countess Conundrum, and the mysterious Professor Aphasia.

Notes
- The art could be improved. I’ll see what can be done about it; at the very least I’ll need a new city screen. Suggestions for an appropriate artist I can contact are welcome!
- It’s not fully balanced yet. Feel free to suggest improvements!
- Peter: I haven’t included any sheep just yet, but the eagle from Sheeplings randomly appears on the city screen.
- And Anders, I’ll see what I can do about losing progress indicators… I need to get the art sorted out first, though! :/
Thanks in advance for any comments.

Probably just as well you dropped “Justice” from the title. I’m not sure vigilantism qualifies as such….

Oh, but one of the ideas I had for the game was to make superhero-ing a legitimate career path; it’s hinted that the protagonist went to superhero college, and I had plans to include a superhero union as well. This would imply that the game’s reality condones their actions – and that it’s not vigilantism after all!

Well as long as the game’s reality condones it I guess it’s ok.
(Anybody else feel a certain Mythbusters quote coming on here?…….)

Haha.. “The game rejects reality and substitutes it with its own…” How very fitting.

Is this the most comments you’ve had to a post?
Just curious……

I had some post that had ~8 comments or so, but the average is less than one per post.
(140 posts; 120 comments.)

Hmmm… Now there’s a challenge!

Oooh, seems it really is a challenge…
Oh well… Another time perhaps.

I didn’t try out the last version, so this one I felt I had an obligation to try.
I really liked the game, and when my one hour trial was up I was disappointed that I couldn’t play anymore. 
So, my comments:
* I don’t like that the game defaults to fullscreen mode.
* I love that I get to design my character (moss green hair, mmm)
* I like that there are several kinds of puzzles. However, after a while it gets kind of old to save an old lady from a racing car. Maybe you could find a few more scenarios to use with the existing puzzles?
* I absolutely love the cliché dialog!!
Being a “browser gamer” I would like to see a browser version of this game in the future, (so that , purely hypothetically of course, I could play it at work where I’m not allowed to install programs…).
