	So, that was a fun test. There's not much here, but what's here is executed pretty well. With the introduction over, Nestoly chose to commit a bit further; whereas ''Stickman!!! Die'' also goes by the rather telling title ''Yurik'' -- "This is my attempt at a game" -- for his next game he overtly went with ''[[Yurik 2]]''. In place of a stick figure, we have Nestoly himself. And lo, another user is hooked. Another voice takes the leap to express itself.		So, that was a fun test. There's not much here, but what's here is executed pretty well.

 For a new designer, there are a few common starting places. Some have long been hurting to design a game, and are full of ideas and characters that they have been exploring in other media such as comics. Others approach the tools as a blank slate, and are eager to just put down ''something'' in order to see what the tools can do. Where the former camp tends toward mascot-based platformers, the latter tends to fill the void with a mix of consciously simple imagery and violent transgression (e.g. South Park). It's the two sides of adolescence: earnestness versus cynicism. Either you're really excited by stuff, or -- no matter how interested you really are -- you're eager to show how little you're bothered. To an extent it's concept versus craft.

 If you get past the thematic content, Nestoly proves quite able with RSD's tools. For a first effort, the controls are quite refined and full of experimental flourishes (such as the various weapon types). The sprites and the background, though deliberately crude, are well-differentiated. Nestoly may not lay out a road map for future game design, but right out of the gate he is quite comfortable with the basic tasks that can take other authors some time to internalize.
