Today we tackled some more basics that are surely useful for anyone who has problems setting up new charsets. Enjoy!

Always happy for Feedback and suggestions :3

I really appreciate these blogs. Turns out I never did have a full grasp of ! and $. This is greatly increasing my 'got it right' the first times and decreasing my 'gotta tweak it a little more' times. Thank you.

ETA: If you're taking requests for ideas for new tutorials, I think one similar to this but directed to the tilesheets would be great. I just recently learned by trial and error that you can't just copy and paste willy-nilly to any sheet and expect things to appear as you thought. For instance, Tile 0 of Tileset B erases what's underneath, but another tile, even if empty, won't do that (and maybe I don't even have that right). And it will only erase tiles of B, C, D, E, but not A. Otherwise it will superimpose itself (got to do with layers I suspect). Anyway, you see my point? I can't be the only non-artist out here who could stand to learn the rules of the tilesets. Just a suggestion. I truly do appreciate these short but sweet and so informative tutorials.

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
