Are you a Master Spriter? Or perhaps a SFX Genius? Let's see what my little test has to say!

Download:
Alternate Download: Here
Hope you enjoy, and don't forget to paste your results into your sig and post what you think about the test! I'll make improvements and add more questions if it gets popular enough.

Updates:
1.0: First uploaded. Enjoy!
1.1: Fixed a few problems and added another possible outcome.
1.11: Uploaded, just realized it's glitched. It'll be fixed within 25 minutes. Please bear with me until then.
1.2: Fixed the glitch. It now displays an error message at the end, but that shouldn't be a problem.
1.3: Fixed another glitch (the error message no longer displays).
1.4: It now tells you what you got while inside the game.

Update, December 2008: Sorry guys, but I have no intention in creating a new or better version. This thing is old news (like two years ago old) and I'm surprised the topic isn't completely dead at this point. Sorry to anyone who's dissapointed, but in all honesty, i made this game quite a while back, and so it isn't exactly top quality. On top of that, it's just a stupid quiz game, so please don't complain about it when you know it's never going to be changed. That aside, feel free to keep on downloading. And by the way, no, I will not be making a Vista compatible version.

At the end? That shouldn't be a problem since it copies it to the clipboard. I got no problems when I ran it.
Kracker_Kid
it pops up when trying to run the program
Chessdude
Oh dear. That's not good. I'm not on a computer with GM right now, so I can't do anything about it. Could you check in here in about 25 minutes? I'll have it fixed. In fact, I'll PM you both when it's fixed. I'll also PM Phazon and Fedor since they seem to be lurking around this topic...
-Twister-
its still not fixed and its almost been an hour...
Chessdude
I'm going to keep a list of people to PM after I get updated:
The_Cow
Kracker_Kid
Phazon
Fedor
Element Studios

Come find out what you are! happy.gif

GM MASTER.... nice!
The_Cow
I got Programming Master as well.

No offence, but the colors in the program are kind of ugly.
Chessdude
You dare insult my coloring? laugh.gif Anyway, I got GM master. (MASTER OF AWESOMENESS)
Chessdude
Anyone?
-Twister-
Come find out what you are!

if i'm a gm master, then theres something wrong with this test...
stalkeer
Come find out what you are!

It was to easy laugh.gif
Mr. Midi
Come find out what you are!

The sad thing is, I'm just posting that code to see what my results were. Next time, include the results IN THE GAME.

will edit with rating once I find out what I am.

EDIT: Hmm...prog master. Not quite what I was expecting, but oh well:

Not as much a test as it was a survey. And not being able to see your results without a forum or internet connection is just unforgiveable.

3/10
Chessdude
Humph. Didn't want to put it in. Seems like no one chooses any sound or graphic choices. You do know you can skip a question you don't want to answer by pressing ESC, right?

EDIT: Yes, it's possible to get other stuff. Example:
Come find out what you are!

Also, someone got Game Tester but didn't post here...

You know, if I get at least 50 downloads, I promise to make 10 more questions and improve the graphics.
Abras
Come find out what you are!

Whoa!!! My whole life has been turned upsidedown. I'm gonna go right ahead and call CAPCOM and ask for a job as project director.

EDIT: They said no sad.gif
not_patrick
here what i got

Come find out what you are!

EDIT: game tester!? im no noob >=(
Chessdude
The test never lies! (not usually at least).
Well at least people are finally getting other stuff. I think I'll have it tell you what you are in the test. Gimmie a sec...

And everyone, don't stop posting and downloading!
Chessdude
Sorry to double post, but no one be intimidated by the low download counter. It goes down to 0 every time I upload a new version.
EDIT: Abras and not_patrick, you don't have sigs. Why not put these in?
ANOTHER EDIT: 2 more downloads and I'll make another version.
Chessdude
Looks like I'm gonna create another version. Any ideas for questions?
-Twister-
do you go through with every project you start?

thats a good question.
Chessdude
Good. Any more? Also, any ideas for more ranks?
benetonmovie
Come find out what you are!

Good test.
camieman10
Come find out what you are!

Chessdude
Glad. Still looking for ideas for the next version.
Fedor
How did you know I was crawling around this thread? blink.gif
EDIT: It didnt tell me what I was? ohmy.gif wacko.gif whistle.gif blink.gif

Lmfao, and if you answer no to that, it should say, "Damn it Mr. Midi, you already took the test!!!" laugh.gif

Odd, since I've only been using the program for two weeks. tongue.gif
HackerEli
Come find out what you are!
maker of not so good games
WTF!!!!
I got a : Come find out what you are!

Itried to be crappy and got a : Come find out what you are!
lol i answered none of the above and got a gm master! Come find out what you are!
Chessdude
Muahahahaha! So, anyone else?
pivotman
Come find out what you are!
that was weird, but great! 9/10 i woul have liked it more better if it was window *hint* but anyways it was good.
Chessdude
Thanks for the feedback. biggrin.gif
jaj
Its a nice test, but I think most people already know what they like and don't like to do, still a funny test.

According to the test I was a "programming master" Not really true, I know how to program all the stuff I want in a game, but thats it, its not my most favourite thing (composing + spriting + level design are)
Chessdude
Well, then you should have answered some questions with none of the above. It appears that people choose untruthful answers for a lack of better. Pressing Escape answers "None of the above."
toenail
Come find out what you are!

Yay! I'm a MASTER!
Chessdude
Good for you. biggrin.gif A lot of people seem to get that...
Jax
i liked this test even tho it was it wasn't correct but it was fun!

Come find out what you are!
jaj
Tsss, now I am suddenly a game tester! odd...
Chessdude
Hell with correct! FUN IS BETTER!!! Nah, I tried to be as correct as possible. Some people had better start using escape on questions or I'm gonna... SAY IT AGAIN!
Zekobah
