| abstract | - I read a while ago (can't remember where) about the idea of downloading Stick Ranger for your PC, so you are able to play without needing an internet connection. I really just want to expand on this idea, because I really love it. Obviously you'll need to download a more recent version if you want to play a new one, but I really think this is cool. This also opens up a new world for (dare I say it) Stick Ranger hacking, I haven't really seem Stick Ranger or any other Dan-Ball game for that matter, to be 'hacked' or at least dramatically changed before. With stick ranger being a local file on your PC, you could edit the games data with some hex editing programs, and make everything from new enemies, to maybe even world maps! People have been creating fan-made pages about SR for years now, and while some ideas are re-imagined by Dan-Ball and added in, the best way for seeing your ideas put into action would be this way. I also feel something like this would really expand on the community, there would be tutorials and whatnot an even entire articles dedicated to hacking. This would possibly generally draw more players in too, I'm not sure how many people play Stick Ranger but I know it's not a lot, and people sometimes (from my experience) try the game and get put off the game because they find it boring. An idea like this could generally interest more players.
