    A huge mistake I made for so long is getting stuck due to not getting my game look like I wanted (Like having fancy waethers, taller sprites and many others) so I ended up forgetting about working on the game itself. Even if I ended up making my project looks as I wanted, there wouldn't have been a game to use those graphics on.

    So my tip is: In order to decorate a cake, you first need to bake the base! :kaopride:

    I know someday I'll do a full story, but short strips aren't bad for practice :kaoswt:

    I made a conceptual layout for my new battle hud. It showcases a picture of the actor, a status display, both HP and MP gauges, a geode display (think of this like class icon display) and the actor name. (Edit: added XP bar and level display)



    (This is merely structural, still need to actually design it)

    I reworked an old character, which one of these gives you more of a "God of Sun" vibe? (Left: old design | Right: new design)

    Ps : belenos is a celtic sun God. Might be worth it to look it up for inspiration.

    @Finnuval Belenus is actually his name, I get if they give this christian vibe, its the kind of religious concept I'm familiar with. (I need to learn more about this). Also, the circle behind the second design is based on something similar I saw on a statue of the actual Belenus. I could certainly use an alternate hand sketch as inspiration, if you're willing to do it i'll certainly apreciate it.

    Yep, pretty much a straight up anime girl fight happening with over the top violence, all for control of the all powerful cell phone. The life of @Hyouryuu-Na is scary indeed. :kaoback:

    It is scary indeed ^^ Every night I get a mini heart attack standing outside my room. Straight ahead far away from me, I see the light from outside seeping in through gap under the front door. I keep thinking there's someone standing outside. It's just the potted plants. Few days ago I actally got a scare. There was something sitting on the sofa in the study. It was a painting that someone decided to put down lol

    Yep, I'm hearing cursed painting. Can't tell me different, the painting is clearly alive. Evil cell phone stealing maids on one side, cursed paintings on the other, and sentient plotting potted plants seeking your downfall. If you're also beset by titanic demon cats, this is basically Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. :kaoback:

    A friend requested me to do a pfp for his twitch channel, so far he approved one of my sketches, so going to digital now. The style he's looking for is quite different from my usual, hopefully I can get it right... :kaoback:

    Fair enough. I've always just started with the size required for the project. Though with games and websites it's rare the scale is beyond 1920x1080... Though all the PVGames assets are scaled super large, which is usually the only time I run into super oversized stuff.

    It sounds like quite the behemoth, I would like to see it once Photoshop lets you open it.

    Wow :0 I can't work on a canvas bigger than 1200x800 easily. I find it hard to color as that's just more space to color and I lose control over the strokes for the lineart XD But I get you. Photoshop takes ages to open for me ;__;

    I finished Steins;Gate for the first time, didn't got a pleasent ending. Anyways, omg I loved this! I'm absolutely replaying it and see what I missed, I really underestimate the appeal of visual novels, while of course, I can't expect a genre be full of masterpieces, I certainly changed my perception of these games. Guess I'll be messing around with VN maker at somepoint.

    Did you watch the anime?
    MrKiwi
    MrKiwi
    Not really, I wanted to play the game first
    MrKiwi
    I started playing Steins;Gate, it really hooked me up already. I'm not sure exactly if I do have some choices or interactions that matter on the story, but the plot itself is interesting enough to keep me just going dialog by dialog. Also characters interactions are really fun :kaoswt:

    It depends on how you reply to emails, and you will do choices too occasionally.

    That was my favourite anime for a long long time
    MrKiwi
    I really tried to pull off something for halloween, but I don't feel like going on. I feel like the plot I was building was too generic, and I couldn't connect to it as I do with other projects. On the bright side, I've been working on my cosmic-puzzle project, so far I think the core mechanics are working properly, so I'll be creating some large test maps to see how it works out.

    So I'm having issues with my steam account... so I can't use MZ right now, so I can't work on my game until its solved, so it be harder to be ready for 31... guess I'll get ice cream :kaopride:

    Use trial mode for a while?

    @ramza Yes running it offline is a thing, but it does not apply to my issue.

    @Powerise I'll wait until I get a solution, in the meantime I'll work on the plot and some graphics instead of eventing the whole day :kaoswt:

    Ice Cream will supercharge your game making speeds to make up for lost time.

    I was thinking about making a little thread with some edits and graphs I've made for my projects, wouldn't be a huge thing, but who knows, maybe someone could find something useful! :kaopride:
