  • I've done some more gun icons, super proud of the CZ75!

    These last 2 weeks have been so busy at my job... Kinda getting some burnout. I just hope I recover over the weekend since last weekend wasn't enough. :kaosigh:
    Well this New Year's sucks... My brother was fine earlier today, now he's sick with something.

    No idea, most likely the flu. He tested negative for covid.
    Here's some videos I took at the Sabaton concert in Seattle 2 days ago! The audio's a bit weird at times, but what can you do.


    I finally took after someone I know and have started making my own firearm sprites for my post apocalyptic game! These are all actual homemade guns that were confiscated in Brazil or another country.

    Homemade guns makes me think about those Afghan gunmakers who made AKs, and they wuz like yeah, wid this rifle, you can shoot once and then it jams. :kaoswt: :biggrin: I do think they made some quality wepns too tho...

    @alice_gristle We guarantee you can pull the trigger and it will propel a bullet at lethal velocities! ...we make no promises about which end of the gun it comes out of...

    @alice_gristle I'm going to add Khyber Pass copies to the game as well like you mentioned, don't worry!
    Can anyone guess what game this dialogue system is from? (like an actual game, not the screenshot)

    The color and font are definitely from Fallout 3, but the dialog system itself is inspired by S.T.A.L.K.E.R. In there you can ask almost any NPC if they're heard anything interesting, about specific locations, or trade with them. Good guesses all!

    Never would've guessed S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
    I just got all of my wisdom teeth out today, thankfully I have the rest of the week off.

    not sure -4 Wisdom is a viable stat change, as times go.

    @gstv87 You've got it wrong. They're called wisdom teeth, because when you pull them out, you'll unlock the power they had been sealing.
    After months and many changes, my revamped demo for Battle Castle is finally out Check it out in the Games in Development forum!
    I've decided that I'm going to release an "early look" demo for Battle Castle that'll show off the new direction the game is going in. Now, I don't have a release date yet, but it'll be soon, I promise.
    It'll have a lot less content than the current demo that's out right now, but will include totally new maps, a new combat system/new skills, new writing, new windowskin, and a bunch of tweaks.
    After looking at some old projects last night, I realized I've technically been working on Battle Castle for over a thousand years 12 years... That's starting in VX, and going through many iterations in Ace. Maybe I'll finish it in another 10 years. :kaoswt::kaodes:

    I have gone through something similar with my characters where I repurpose them. Although I have only made one story/world that truly made me think, "I need to revisit this eventually."

    In all seriousness though, when I've worked on it recently I have made good progress. I am trying to get a demo out for one of my other projects first, but I can release an "early look" version of my revamped Battle Castle demo if no one cares about less content.
    I have discovered the ultimate method of actually getting work done on your game: Make a to-do list with only a few, small things on it that you can do each day, and schedule it for a whole week. Things like "make this npc's dialogue", "make these items", or "fix these couple bugs". It actually works!

    But have you tried making them smaller? Seriously.
    I have HUGE to-do lists and this helps with decision paralysis.

    I'm one of those people that can't do one thing for too long so I'm all over the place so I can work on many things all in one go but so little of each gets done that it feels like nothing got done.

    I can see how your method would help many people though because sometimes when one is overwhelmed with too many details it turns them off to doing anything at all.

    After a few days of feeling like garbage from Covid, I feel like I might be getting better. Throat hurts less, a bit more energy, less congestion. I still don't think I'm going to make it back to work this week at all, though.
    After 3 days of going to the hospital, my kidney stones are finally out, as is the drainage tube I had in my side for 2 of those. Unfortunately, as one more "F*** you" to end the year, I now have Covid.
    I had my urology appointment today, and it looks like I will be needing surgery to remove the kidney stones. Thankfully, the surgery doesn't sound too invasive, but I will have a stent in for a few weeks afterwards. It sure as heck sounds better than being in constant pain and taking opiates every day.

    Oh man... I hope all goes well for you. :o
    So after going to the ER a day ago, I found out I have kidney stones. This is not something you ever want to have, the pain is beyond horrible. :kaodes:

I genuinely like the default MZ actor sprites, and the character creator. I think I will draw new headshots for them, but part of me doesn't want to replace the default sprites. But should I? I want to eventually release my game.
Someday, I hope they make a game where 95% of the animation budget went to turning valves and opening door animations, leaving every other animation looking like a CDI zelda cutscene.
