trying to figure my way around the basic functions of Construct 3 and OH GOD MY BRAIN. I'm starting to think that developing decades of RPG Maker skills might have a downside.
Related to previous status: please give me throwaway game ideas for the LEAST ambitious project you can imagine, if you have any. Like the lowest hanging fruit of making a game.
TERRIBLE circumstances have forcibly separated me from my PC and thus my work on Spirit of '76. Which is frankly the least of my worries re: said terrible stuff.
creating a great big visual "spreadsheet" of all the guns/ammo in my game, trying to sync up battle sprites and icons as best I can, because it was becoming a real mess. (this is a result of my having finally found a way to display ammo in combat that works for me)
what all video editing software do people use for making game trailers and stuff? looking for something idiot-proof, old-person friendly, and importantly, free.
Unsure what it says about me but huge part of my drive to finish my game comes from desire to send free copies to all the lovely people whose resources I used that specified that in their terms.
Just found an obviously custom effect (i.e. edited by me) in my resources>sounds folder called "rip jaw off". Dear Lord what is wrong with me as a person that at some point I needed a sound *specifically* for THAT??
(...rhetorical question.)
so like with the whole 'familiarity breeds contempt thingy', how are you supposed to tell if your title screen/battle music gets really tedious after a few dozen plays or if you're just personally hella sick of it?
I was going to work on my gam but I wound up on twitter again instead please please please never let me make this horrible mistake again! will to live fading...fading...fading
it's really vexing when a plugin fails to work for no reason at all, like not even the fault of the plugin. I miss the spirit of self sufficiency of the old days when you'd just be like "screw it I'll event it myself". in the era of easy plugin access that seems so inefficient, even wasteful.
...ok looking at these redacted MV resources I have less questions about the oversexualized teenage girls (I mean, it's Japan) than I do about the golf clubs. SO MANY QUESTIONS about the golf clubs...why all the golf clubs, seriously...
I feel a pretty unreasonable level of anxiety over the issue of people not liking me online. It's gotten worse since COVID-19 cancelled the entire world and online became everything, but I should still care less than I do.
so for years I've thought the japanese word "omae" was informal slang for "friend", "pal", "buddy", "dawg", "my (n-word") etc and I just found out it's a rude word for "you", apparently & considered offensive! TMYK
Observation Log 1 on the planet of "RPGMAKERWEB": Local RMXP community seems to have very few survivors. Their script tech-level is in the early Stone Age(about the same as 66RPG in 2007).
Some cats/wolves/squirrels are spotted, they are likely friendly. :3
Keep working on establishing more meaningful contacts.
May try to use the "I Come in Peace" protocol if encounter any hostiles.
Using hiddenone's QTE tutorial I've been able to setup a simple fishing system. Instead of just the pointer moving, the goal moves as well. Holding the action button scrolls the pointer and pressing the down arrow key hooks the fish. The speed of both is variable as well as the number of successful hooks needed for a catch.
When someone helps you solve a problem, it's good to report the thread so it can be closed, but it's also nice to go back and post in the thread to let them know their suggestion actually worked. And, you know, to say thanks for helping.
