Hello everyone, I'm Omikuji or Omi for short and I preordered Ace as the third RPGmaker program that I have had in my grubby hands. I think, I think I had four...? Anyways, I'm essentually a newbie at the programs, I'm not going to lie when I say that all I did with XP and 2003 five plus years ago now is that I was confused at the whole thing and then dropped the attempts at understanding the creator when my computer set fire.

I am an artist and I do enjoy writing here and there... mainly focusing on the art stuff. I want to be able to learn and understand Ace once I get my hands on it, I already have a project planned and I hope to make this a fun learning experience!

So hello! I'm sure some people may slightly recognize my name from another RPGmaker forum, but how could I not say hello in this one when I was invited c:

Hello Omikuji! A seasoned RPGM user right? I personally only briefly used XP and VX but I'm sure I'll go a long way with Ace!

Welcome Omi! You mentioned you are an artist, do you incorperate your own art into your games or plan to?

Ohhhh goodness no. XD I have used them in the past, but I was around 15 at the time and had no idea what I was doing. I think I got to play around with any of the programs I listed for half a year and I had zero help at all. I got maybe a very small portion of a game done, I am in no way a seasoned RPGM maker at all XD Consider me a newbie at the program as well who is going to work very hard to learn how to make her promise of making a RPGM game way back then fulfilled! That's why I'm sneaking around in these forums, I'm really hoping there will be a number of helpful people who can help me understand scripting and eventing way better then me sitting there guessing the whole time.

@Ichi: Oh, I plan to yes. Nothing too big for my first game, since I want to use it as a stepping stone to learn how to use the program itself. I do dabble a little bit in sprite editing, and I do a bunch of character art and have done years of arting around. I know for the sprites at least for my first attempting game, I want to edit the sprites slightly to have this look to them
They may just be very small edits, but I want to take away the black in the sprites to give them a softer look, and changing their souless eyes XD Maybe I'll also add in some of my actual art into the game, but one step at a time as drawing to fit the all around style of the game is a lot of work when I want to focus on learning how to make a game.

Thats cool Omi, would you be interested in doing a sprite shop of some sort in the future? Just curious, cause, well I stink at sprites :D

Welcome!

I agree with Ichi, you really should have a sprite shop thread! I can tell from just those 2 sprites that you have budding talent and it should be shown for all to see... apart from me (as you can see, I have no eyes... T.T) I can't wait to see what kind of work you'll be producing for us

A sprite shop? What's that? Is that like... a resource area here? I didn't think they where all that amazing so it's surprising to hear that thank you you two! XD

Along with those animated ones, I have been working on a few other emotion sprites for my game (I haven't started on the other characters since I want to see if I can get them much closer with the character creator in Ace rather then the webbased one for VX that is... somewhere.)



Oh then there's the dragon in my sig who I also edited to make for my plotting game thing.

I also do a bit of comic art! I'll post some of that in here too as a bit of a preview of my actual drawing work since I feel I'm a bit better at that then actual spriteing XD (also no the main character shown here is not in the actual game. I'm going to attempt his story either later as a RPGM or as a comic depending on how things end up)

Your sprites are awesome, yeah shops are basiclly a resource area, some shops take request from members who stink at what you are good at (spriting in my case ^-^) I thought your comic is good too, wondering what that one more thing is in #3...

Hi Omi, welcome! We can never have too many spriters :) You may not think they're great, but as someone who's much better at programming, I envy anyone who can make the simplest of sprite tweaks and have them look good.

Your dragon is gorgeous!

Woohoo, another artist! Looks good. Your spriting looks nice, as well. At any rate, welcome!

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.
