    Played around with pixel art to make basic edits today. Though art is probably not the right word. More like smashed pixels together until they OH NO WHAT HAVE I DONE?

    I've done A LOT of "custom art" for my game, and nearly all of it has been from Frankenstein-ing existing art, and a little bit of unskilled brush-strokes. The nice thing about pixels is there is a lot of room for forgiveness.

    This is where I need a confused reaction. Are you teaching a course called Dies in Couch? Is that a metaphor for something? Is it hip new slang that the youngsters are using now a days? Or is there a missing punctuation? Like you survived week 1 of teaching and you are now dying on the couch? I am so confused.

    103F outside today, about 70% humidity. Ac died in one class too. Been an interesting first week of classes so far.

    if only people knew that games like Rimworld teach the player to deal with heatwaves, cold snaps, blights, volcanic eruptions, wildfires, stampedes and alien invasions.
    ...but noooo! we can't have people not-depending on the authorities! God forbid they start thinking for themselves!

    I won’t be surprised if y’all don’t start having brown outs. Here we’ve been getting the ring of fire thunderstorms all day. Amazingly none blew our power out this time but there’s another round over night.

    What really sucks and surprises me is when the weather is like that and then it rains but the humidity doesn’t drop. Like what?
    bgillisp
    Someone in my area made the evil Fire Wizard mad, we got temps over 100 F next two days with high humidity. Send the heroes of light to slay the Fire Wizard for us!

    Or release Elsa. Either will work.

    Spent today implementing an idea only to discover it sucked and then took it out of my game. So after a day of work, I'm back to where I was when the day started.

    The joys of game dev...

    So I had this bright idea to change the dialogue at the dinner party depending on what day you attend to it. Spent the entire day doing the dialogue for days 2 and 3 (1 is not an option). Ugh.

    Sometimes. So far one person is late on night 3 and you get to meet someone new too. Night 4 I plan to have someone crash it. Haven't thought past that night.

    Man maybe next I should do a murder mystery game. This feels SO fitting for it.

    That would be absolutely perfect LOL!
    Even then, in more typical RPG situations it can lead to quite the side quest, so it sounds fun even if overwhelming to make.

    There has always been cake. There will always be cake. There is cake inside

    Somedays I do smart things. Other days I eat chips labeled Fuego (fire) when it is about 38 C outside. I'll let you figure out which day today was.

    I have decided on the ultimate fantasy RPG. It will be called:

    The night I got a full 8 hours of sleep past the age of 40 and other fairy tales.

    I mean, I’m not quite 40 yet but I’ve been sleeping 8 hours a night about 90% of the time. I had a way harder time when I was younger.

    Yep, my body seems hard wired to wake up eight hours after I start sleeping, which generally isn't long after I go to bed.

    Actually, an RPG where the main character is trying to get a good night's rest sounds like it could really work. Each failed night gives some sort of persistent fatigue state and you have to rely on the party members to help you since they aren't getting issues sleeping. The antagonists know you're The Hero and thus try to stop you by ruining your sleep schedule because they can't outright kill you.

    Error: Motivation.exe not found. Run sleep.exe instead?

    So for luls I tried to have the ACE generator make a 500 x 500 tile dungeon.

    Program crashed.

    Guess even ACE was having nothing of that.

    That fact he still had to gnaw…sounds like he didn’t cook it long enough! Could have used a little tenderizer. Guess they didn’t have any travel companions for good ol’ cannibalism?

    Well by then they were weak from cold and hunger too, so probably was a factor as well.

    Everyone knows that the first few days *minimum* into any vacation is spent getting the phantom din of Microsoft Teams pings to stop.

    My job actually doesn't use teams. Its just email instead. And once final grades are in I can just put in a vacation message and not return to it until August.

    One thing I do appreciate about RPGMaker games. While the graphics may stretch and distort due to graphics changes, at least older RPGMaker games actually still RUN on newer machines, unlike say a 4+ year old AAA game.

    Been lookin many RM2003 games
    Found app 2 run them on 3DS (sorry don't kno if that is breaking a rule)

    Main market game bein hard 2 play later OS is nightmare 4 me

    Reminds me of fallout 3. Completely unplayable on modern computers, has been for over a decade, about the only way you can play it is if you turn it into a mod to play in fallout New Vegas which actually had support for newer tech to play nice but even then it requires a lot of other mods just to make it stable as a baseline.

    Controlled obsolescence, what bother me most though is that the hardware itself is being designed to deliberately fail as well. Its bad enough that your software stops being compatible but when you realize that 70% of hardware failures are due to deliberate and intentional design choices to limit their lifespan you'll never buy a prebuilt computer again.

Forgive my rudimentary video editing skills, thought I'd start sharing progress on my status posts as well. Here's the second character of my roster, Mǽlhafoc, the Ælven ranger.

And if you missed the first one many moons ago, here's Vilhelm, the tarnished knight.

Knocked through three more rough draft sprites. (A frog beast thing, a skeleton, and vampire bat) down to seven sprites and a thing more appropriately done as tiles.
