Horse Naming

[Fishguy]

Hi, just got the full version yesterday. Really love the game, and I have a quick suggestion.

Could you put in the option to name your Horse? Like maybe on the Char. creation screen, or after you buy a new one it would give you a small dialog box where you could name him. I'd just love to see the damage dialoges read "Pegasus charged for x damage" or "HI HO Silver is crippled" etc.

Thanks for the awesome game!

Well, I'm not sure about that, since I'd just name my horse "horse."

Mine would have to be Binky.

A cookie to whoever spots the reference.

Discworld.
Now, where's my cookie?

I wouldn't want to get so attached before I run out of food and have to kill and eat it

It could work if you only ever had the one horse, but you can buy lots of them and I think it might be more annoying than fun if you were asked to give each one a name.



I'd call my horse Neddy though

Appropriate, really. I wear a hardened robe, black helmet, and use a scythe.

Ability to name your horse is in my todo list. But so are a million other things, so it may take a while.

No rush on anything - just knowing that you're taking community requests to heart makes you better than 90% of developers out there.

You're setting a very good example that other indie developers would do well to follow. I just hope that you're getting enough registrations to make the effort worthwhile!
