Welcome to Wrestling Gamers United Newsletter #468
1) Blackened 2) ...And Justice For All
1) Blackend ************** Remember how I said that every time we fix a bug there is a good chance we create a new one? This week a got a new build and everything was looking better until I tried to kick my opponent. The screen went black. Tried it again. Black. Tried it with other characters in different parts of the level. Black. Black. Black. WTF? Our programmer didn't believe it when I told him to check it out but there it was for him, too. Sure he fixed it, but it took almost three days of bug hunting to do it. The silver lining in this is that the fix for this bug ended up also fixing intermittent collision bugs I had seen with other strikes. Seems like every bug and glitch has been an opportunity to make our game better in ways we didn't originally consider.
2) ...And Justice For All ***************** I got this message from, "Mel", our original character designer and creator of No Cara on the PWX Uprising roster:
----------------------- So, Mistico's debuting in WWE with a new name... "Sin Cara."
Sin Cara meaning "no face."
Which is what "No Cara" means, in an Anglicized (See: Canadian) sense. ... Uh. -----------------------
So here we are in the unenviable position of protecting ourselves from WWE. What right do we have to confront WWE? If we do nothing now then what are the odds WWE will actually try to take legal action against us for our No Cara in PWX? Our lawyer is gonna get a kick out of this one. It's a bit more exciting than trademarking logos and printing stock certificates.
In the meantime and in between time, that's it, another edition of Wrestling Gamers United. Thank you for your support, Dave Wishnowski

Oh sure technically yeah. But the first game won't really have enough characters or venues to make that a really viable option. Next game! We've already got a great indie venue ready to go for the next game.
