I'm afraid of my graphics being put up there someday.  It's impossible to just run a search for.

Well, to be fair, the odds of this occurring are decent, but the odds of them being used from there are much smaller. If people are going to use ripped game graphics, they're probably going to go with something popular, or they're making a fangame. I think a lot of visitors to the site are like me - drooling over shiny art they will probably never be able to compete with, or are trying to learn from.


Me, for instance, I'm regularly referencing Final Fantasy 6 sprites, as I figure if I can edit some similar emotive motions into my Open Game Art characters, I can make them look that little bit better.

Oh you lucky lovable! shakes fist

Something I do when I'm freaking out is to actually think through all my fears and make them concrete worries instead of just vague ones.  Then I make a plan for the worse case scenario.  Having a real plan and real worries makes it easier to deal with them properly and move forward instead of thinking in circles.

Thanks, I'll try to do that.

Good One Mate 

Thanks

I loved it myself.  =)

I enjoyed it a lot. I didn't think it was over-priced or pretentious, but I also happen to like exploration games and the nostalgia factor was very nice.

Stupid internet is working like crap again, I wanted to reply like an hour ago...anyway.


@BananaThugHighfive, I didn't think I would like it this much-


@Lunarea Maybe you're right, pretentious might be too strong of a word, it IS artsy at least. But I do think 20$ for 3 hour experience is too pricey.

All games need friendly skeletons to talk to!

Amen! And to think it took me so long to see the light, I just wanted to make a Master of the wind reference

Hehe talking skellies do remind me of Stoic. Also Hiante from Star Stealing Prince! Both popular RM games, so maybe they're onto something with the skeleton party members.

No en mi juego el villano puede ser heroe tambien.. no te preocupes

Make him disguise into someone else to avoid suspicions but still give him the option to talk to them for precious info.

Someone suggested the exact same thing at rpgmakercentral, and I'm actually considering doing it. Thanks!

Hahahaha. Sadfive, bro. (well, sis)


I'm trying to force myself to be more productive but it's pretty hard. :/

Sadfive. It is hard - right now I can't focus on any project.

Well, I guess I'm a little better off than you, then. I still have to finish my other birthday bash project and I'm still quite attached to it, so it's a little to easier to progress on it.


What about working on a sequel for your bash project? You seemed inclined to do so on your posts.

I must have played the piano before talking to the demon. Itworked now. Thanks!

You're welcome! Hope you'll enjoy the rest

Now everyone can some and tell me how  much my game sucks so I can stop daydreaming.

Congratulations on getting employed! I imagine they didn't consider you a burden but I thoroughly understand the sentiment of feeling that way. I hope it's a fun place for you to spend your time while earning some money ^_^

Congrats.

Thank you so much! It's not really a defined work place, though. I'm going to be an assistant to a lawyer delivering papers in and out of court and that sort of stuff.

Better than me. I don't think I have enough time even come up with a halfway decent entry. Good Luck though!

@Hollow 1977Thanks I'm doing my best. I'm just about to submit a demo.

Been there.

Opening them with the classic notepad is a mess...

Found an alternative program called sublime text, if anyone is interested. https://www.sublimetext.com/

Well, keeping in mind XP is outdated and more software is being made that is incompatible with it, I'd rather not. But, yeah, going back to it would be my final option, if I don't find a solution to this.

I'm still with XP, but I should stay "stuck" with it because my hardware wouldn't make it a viable option.


I understand you though. I have some games running with DX10 or 11 only and I can't play them...


But it's great for playing oldies!

Go team oldies!

Sorry to hear about this I don't know what it's like to go through this. I know you don't want to speak with your dad again but you should definetely talk with your sister. She's made the effort by sending you mail and is obviously eager to speak with you


Meet her half way and at least say hello. There's no harm in doing that. I hope everything goes OK for you


Hugs.


Matthew.

   How old is your sister? is there no way to meet her without having to confront your father? It'd be a shame to continue not knowing your own sister just because of another man's foolishness in the past, though I understand the hesitation.


   Not the same situation at all but a few years ago my oldest daughter's biological father died and his parents suddenly started contacting us about meeting "their granddaughter". She fought it, I fought it but their persistence won over my wife eventually and they met and it ended up being a great experience for her just being able to talk to people about her biological father that actually knew him. Now I'm the only person in the house that still feels awkward when they call.


   I hope you find a safe way to meet your sister, and that somewhere past that flood you find peace in the matter.

Thanks a lot @Sennie and @Alexander Amnell I'm really considering it, I hope it's a positive experience like it was to your daughter,   Alexander. I guess I have to come to a decision soon, I feel bad leaving her hanging. (BTW, she's 19)

Oooh, my favourite game!

Highfive of the force!
