    Which is better: Show HP bars for all, or show only boss HP bars..............

    Honestly, neither. I'm a no hp bars advocate. But if those are the only choices then boss only.

    I think it depends on what you want to achieve. Not having any indication of how much HP the enemy has could be part of the challenge. In many of the older games I loved there weren't HP bars. The enemy died when they died. If you were getting low yourself, you healed if you could. For me, it would depend on the game.

    After thinking about this, I would change my answer to be why not both, if you can easily implement that? I prefer games that give options like that. Don't show HP bars. Show HP bars. Show numbers instead of bars. That sort of thing. The more the player can toggle on and off, the better in my opinion.
    Why does Youtube suck but is also the only thing I want to watch?

    Because the alternatives are as bad or worse. YouTube is also the only thing I watch, and it's usually a video on a specific topic I just looked up.

    And, even if something is better...large user base. Creators tend to stay where the people are.

    There's plenty of good stuff on YouTube if you
    look hard enough. There's like a whole bunch of
    video gaming and retro gaming channels I watch
    and they're all pretty entertaining and informative.
    Great videogame YouTubers I watch include:
    1. Peebs/Peanut Butter Gamer
    2. ReviewTechUSA
    3. The Game Salmon
    4. Retromantra
    5. Luigikid Gaming

    I really need help with parallax backgrounds. Anyone knowledgeable willing to troubleshoot/educate with me?

    they go on the background, they can be looped, and they can't be transparent.
    that's really all there is to them

    Also you can't really see parallax backgrounds
    unless there are empty spaces on your map
    without any tiles on them.

    I am making a cave, and I am trying to make it so that it looks like you are on an elevated piece of land, looking down onto a lower piece.
    So I love stats........ I can't tell if I'm just an amateur for having so many, but my heart wants them! Lol. I could probably remove morale if I wanted to. But then that would be 13 stats, an odd number... NO.

    In my game equipping weapons changes the character's element. How would I visually symbolize this in battle? Like something with the battler sprite.

    Any time you're looking for some number of opinions on something, it always makes the most sense to make a forum post. Your status post may be gone from the front page in ten minutes. I feel you've been given this advice before :stickytongue:

    Alright
    If you use Yanfly's stuff, you can add passive states to equipment, and with those you have animations on you battlers or use one of the default overlays.

    Agree with @Alright 's point about passives with animations. I know I had something going for a fire buff for spellblade classes way back when
    How do I deal with my game being crap until it's done? I can't even tell if it's fun sometimes because half my sprites are placeholders, and graphical UI glitches are distracting.

    Plus, your game never looks as bad as you think it is. Not saying you shouldn't listen to your gut, but sometimes I psyche myself out.

    Agreed that your game should be fun without the graphics. I had to quit Ni no Kuni because even though the game is very pretty, it just wasn't fun to play.

    Thanks for the support yall <3
    Best way to reveal stats of the enemy with a skill in battle?

    Google it, or post in the appropriate support section for the maker version you are using. Solutions vary by version. A question via a status message isn’t a substitute for either of the above.
    Anyone want to brainstorm story ideas with me? We could help each other. I just don't really want to use Chat GPT if I don't have to....

    here's an original idea: The super star festival takes place once every 100 years and some random guys come together to literally kill god so that some guy doesn't take away the power source for the entire planet. Don't forget there should be a fishing minigame

    ChatGPT is just a tool. The way I have been using it is that I focus on writing, I don't worry about vocabulary or good descriptions. Then I put my "draft" in chat GPT, it cleans it up but erases any nuance, so I bring it back into the word doc and clean it up, add back in any nuance and metaphor erased by it and the jobs done! It can help you write, but you got to provide it a starting point.

    yes, if you are actually asking for help (rather than just musing), please post in the forum instead of the status feed.

    I did make a thread. Just trying to post as many places as possible....

    Fortunately it’s a pretty short lived phenomena. A prodrome can be a day or two. I’m rather lucky to not have issues with mania or severe depression on a long term basis. I’m more of a perpetually zoned out type from ADHD with majority characteristics in the deficit portion, lol.

    That's good. Yeah, some mental illness symptoms are worse than others haha.

In twitter, square phoenix had successfully prompted chatgpt to make the mini game watermelon pangpang.

drew some stuff to see how frontview might look. not entirely sold on or off of it yet. "could" work, but something feels missing.
Shower Thoughts: ". . . Scammers would be OP in the Elder Scrolls. They could just get speech 100 and blatantly ask everyone for all of their money, and everyone would think it's a great investment. And then after being robbed blind, they'd say, with a smile on their face, 'need something?' "
