Popular? I've never heard of it.

I'm just saying popular cause I was telling a friend about my game and he responded with that word about this supposed board game.

Need a screen cap vid to show off? ^ oui got the time

Here's the link to the game page, but the update that the new intro is in won't be out until next week. https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/above-below-demo-v1-2-active.68586/

Screenshots or it didn't happen!

Yeah, parallaxing trees can be a nightmare. As I learned when making the first village in my game. Which is in a forest.
And then the next major area you can go to is the forest outside the village.

@HexMozart88 You pay $100 per game, have it quickly play tested to make sure it works, then it's put up for sale. That's what I got from the Steam Direct info, anyway.

Ah, I see....

It's a bit more than that. You have to provide legal documentation of different sorts as well.

@Zeriab Automatic? What's automatic? I forget the lovable things all the time, and sometimes forgetting breaks things.

Exactly, not always, only sometimes. The automatic semicolon insertion in JavaScript works in many, but not all cases.


Take C, there missing a ; will make it complain loud and clearly. IDE's are pretty good point it out as well. Going from Ruby to C I forget maybe it once or twice. The IDE tells me right away while I am still looking at a code to fix it. And if I miss that it'll still fail hard on compile, again easy fix.


For JavaScript the idea is likely there are many dummies on the internet, so let's try and clean up after them. (Help them. This article has a pretty good summary: http://cjihrig.com/blog/the-dangers-of-javascripts-automatic-semicolon-insertion/

[*]If the programmer leaves out a semicolon, the JavaScript interpreter will insert it automatically in some circumstances.

[*]Automatic semicolon insertion can introduce bugs which are difficult to locate because whitespace changes semantics.

[*]Programmers should never rely on automatic semicolon insertion.





In other words, good intentions are behind the functionality, but it basically ends up making life more difficult for programmers. I.e. JavaScript makes it more difficult for you to change from VB.

Okay... I just use Notepad++ and assume that if I forget a semicolon, my code will explode horribly and I will cry.


End result? Generally when my code explodes, it's not a semicolon, but my recursion that is questionable. XD

Ah, alright. Thanks for letting me know! I must've messed up a switch somewhere then. I've been extremely busy lately but I'll add that fix to the 2.1 patch for Sylvant when I get it up.

"Free".

The vision I'm talking about is indeed the art style one. I know the whole premise of the creation of the game was how the RTP should be used, but I've gotten multiple comments about how Sylvant would be so much better if it didn't use the RTP. That's why I'm debating it. I'd say that's also why it hasn't been greenlit yet but we all know they'd downvote it anyways because its an RPG Maker game.

I think the comments are regarding the likeliness of the other games, which is true, but it's something you're aiming for (but fix what others do wrong). So based on your vision, the best you could do in my opinion is to have tile color changing (and things like so), which I've heard can go a long way in having less RM "feel", while also being on the RTP territory. Deviating completely from the RTP might not be a good move in this case.

Hmm... yes, I've been recommended to add some varying hues. I'll have to work with it and see what I like.

Yanfly is love.


All hail Yanfly.

If it wasn't for him, I'd have to... *shudders* script my own battle engine.

I'd have to... script

pretty sure that is not a  adhesive medical strips picture.


perhaps try analyzing pic more next time...

It's the auto-correct they've got, I swear I said the name of a baked wheat product.
