  • People are playing my game for over 100 hours, even to 120 and 150 hours and still are not finished. I totally underestimated the play time; I estimated it at "70+" because that's what it took me to go through and get everything. Should've known better! ;P

    Wow, that's insane! 100+ hours of playtime, how is that even possible haha. I have been working on my game for around 9 months (via the engine that is) and my game is so far only around 3hours long xD
    It was fascinating to read about the history of video games on Wikipedia. Magnavox Odyssey was the first home console ever, huh? And the NES is THIRD generation!? Whoah!

    Things were crazy back then, too. Companies would reverse-engineer other companies' consoles and release them as their own... that's nuts! :o

    Have a go of some Atari 2600 (2nd gen console) games if you get the chance, things like pitfall and berzerk, they're surprisingly good.
    MGC's Mode 7 script makes my world map look absolutely stunning when using an airship... reminds me of Secret of Mana, SD3 or FF5/6. I laid every single tile with pure love!

    Just have to finish defining the ocean boundaries (it won't be a looping map as it's not the full world, but one region of it). It's a bit tricky because I have to make sure the unreachable parts extend beyond the widened view Mode 7 creates.

    Sounds most interesting. Never heard of the script, but if it's working for you, more power to you!

    Sometimes I find that I can think more clearly if I've stayed up all night... anyone else experienced this?

    Oh, it was because all the stress of the day has passed, and there tend to be less distractions in the wee hours of the morning, while everyone else is asleep. It is... isolating, however.

    As someone who works overnights, I can tell you, the term "normal schedule" simply doesn't exist to me. It does teach one to become highly versatile though.

    Good to know... versatility is quite an asset.
    Yanfly's scripts give you so many... options!!! I don't know that I'll use them all in one game...

    Why, thank you! ^_^

    My game has just now been accepted at Amaranth Games! I would like to personally thank my friends Shaz and Zeraf for helping to make this happen; Amanda Fitch goes without saying! I am honored! ^_^
    Hmm, maybe I need to step up the promotion of my game. Any ideas?

    Did you submit to Amaranth? Aldorlea?

    Yeah Shaz, I'm going back and forth with Amanda now and working to get it on Amaranth. I guess once I succeed with that, I'll try Aldorlea next...


    ShinGamix, you're right, but I have no idea how to set up something like that. As for the gimmick/catch/hook, I guess I more than anyone would know what to do with that... and yet, I'm uncertain what to play upon. The most outstanding thing to me personally is the size of the main cast...

    I... I'm uploading my game to BMT Micro. Is this really happening...?
    I would be in heaven if they released the original Final Fantasy on the 3DS eShop/Virtual Console...

    That game is so good. My party was Warrior, Thief, BM and WM. I still remember how huge the overworld map seemed back then,

    I know man, it was great. Recently I replayed it with a party a friend recommended that I'd never used before: two Fighters, a Red Mage and a Black Mage. Three Silver Swords, two black magic users. Awesome. And the peninsula northeast of Pravoka (PNEOP) made making all that money a snap. ;)
    Ah I see, so on BMT Micro the cheapest plan requires a minimum of $1.25 in royalties per sale at a rate of 9.5 percent, which means... I can't sell my game for any less than about 12 dollars? Shucks.

    Whoa, a little confused. So Webseller Plus actually has a royalty RANGE of eight to fifteen percent? So $9.99 or ten dollars would barely make the cut in that case?

    Barely make the cut for what?

    Depends, usually when they set a minimum it is so that if someone were to sell the game cheap they wouldn't be making say... 0.10 per sale or something... they probably wouldn't mind you selling it cheaper than 12 as long as they still get their 1.25 off of it, so if you were, say ok with only making 3.75 off of it you could probably sell it at most similar sites for 5.00 if you wanted to, just as an example. (I could be wrong, but most hosting sites tend to work like that, it's a...
    Hey everyone, the free trial version of my game is now officially visible on the Commercial Game Releases forum. Check it out if you'd like. ^_^
    I would maybe like to create a thread for the free trial version of my (completed) upcoming commercial game, but it really doesn't seem to fit into any of the existing forum categories...

    If you read the rules in the Commercial Game Releases forum, it says that's the place to announce your completed commercial games, to provide links to demos and buying. Your game is completed, you want to link your demo(trial), but you don't want to sell it yet, I think you should post in there.

    So my game has 75 downloads on Mediafire so far. It's a pity I don't know any more than that, like how far anyone's gotten or if they're still playing...

    I really like the tilesets and graphics for the world. The intro text seems a little long and I'm not fond of the battle graphics. I really like that a lot of the stuff is interactive. Good job.

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
