Are you a teacher?

Being a pseudo-teacher is also tiring. I teach only my own kid whom I have a vested interest in and that's hard enough; I cannot fathom how one chooses a career path like that in this day and age. To much work, to little pay and authority. Hats off to you.

Ahhh! Another teacher in the ranks! Good luck with the school year.

Farewell, good luck with whatever is!!

Oh? You got a job? ^_^

The thing that blew my mind about Ace was this: All the characters are single square chibi characters... But many of the items and objects would work better for two tile high ones... Like... most of the doors, for instance? Not even an option in the program to use taller sprites... All the defaults are tiny.

Mmm, lemon.

That would be an interesting beginning to a game...

my friend once got woken up in the kitchen of KFC by the manager opening up at 6am... - no, he didnt work there or know anyone who did.

MAH FATHA

TOOK MAY INTO THE CITAY

SO I WOULD STOP SPAMMING THE STATUS UPDATES.

Is that the song they chose for the opening to The Exorcist?

What shelby means dude is that you love to talk about yourself highly an awful lot... too much for it to be real. Just sayin'.

Note taken! :3


I'll look for someplace else to vent!

Yeah, being invited to join a dev team or a non-profit game when the person inviting you has just downloaded Ace yesterday and has this great idea for a game, but now needs to hire people who actually know what they're doing isn't really a compliment. It just means THEY have no idea what they're doing and the game will probably never get past the "I have a great idea for a game" stage. Take all of those off your list and see how many REAL job offers there are

Clinical depression is never from the cause of one's choices. More likely the choices were a result of the depression. I'm sorry for your loss, but I truly hope you will rethink your perspective on this one.

Meant to say, never the result of one's choices

What mlogan says... oftentimes the mindset of someone who is really depressed is enough to make them make stupid choices which further validates (in a vicious infinite loop) to them that their horrible feelings are reality and that those circumstances cannot be changed.

Philosophize me!! O_O

LOL wow!

I would often get 6 requests a day but this is ridiculous. Its too much!

Congratulations!

^get a chocolate lab puppy, make sure said lab gets all exercise required to be tired enough not to trash your house. When lab grows up and mellows out go for same amount of runs together even though your house doesn't depend on it anymore. Cardio solved. As for weight training, the paint can thing seems like it would work... or visit your local scrapyard and find odd metal pieces that can be welded together into the semblance of a proper weight.

Or get a part time job on a farm, I've never been so fit as I was as a teen working my summers away on a nearby farm.

Fill 2 milk jugs with sand and tie a pole in between them

Love is a losing game.

@Darr123 I am so tired of that... thing, being refrenced. I just don't see how it became a thing on the internet.

have you heard of the Spring RTS engine?

Well playing a good RPG would still be better than some shitty beginner RTS too.

Same goes for any beginner RPG.

Explains why I haven't played an RPG Maker game in a long time.

I definitely understand the feeling. But, I would try to create time for YOU first before you throw in the towel. It's great to do work for others but you have to remember that you are your #1 priority. Try and strike a balance and learn your limits.

I personally don't like RPG games. I only used RPG Maker because its the easiest game engine to use. I'm more fit for the RTS genre. Unfortunately, an RTS engine with the same user friendliness and flexibility as RPG Maker is non existent.

Then turn that into an opportunity to get creative! You can make a lot more than standard RPG games in RM. I've seen all sorts of games, even platformers! Take a look.
