    I am looking for some way to insert a video into the titlescreen before the player presses Start Game. I have not found a thread about it. It might be different for VX Ace compared to MV. But from what I have seen I would change the ruby 1.9 code. Has Shaz or someone else done this before...

    [Writing] How would you write someone's thoughts?

    Suppose the main character instead of saying a phrase out loud for everyone to hear, he thinks about it for some reason, probably because he doesn't want to offend someone, because he's a spy, or probably because he's Gordon Freeman. I've met writers who write thoughts by a character in...

Kudos to everyone making game jam games, because this month has been hell for my development time. I have made a cutscene, 2 sprites, and 1 tile.

I hope Baldur's Gate 3 wins BIG at TGA tonight. Tales of Arise was the last game to inspire me and BG3 has MASSIVELY surpassed that!
