haha - I've been wanting to be able to sit down and play some games from here. And I do like French toast ;)

What a great idea.

Gives me an incentive to get a 1 hour demo finished. I'll also have to set aside a full day to just sit and play games, oh the horror.

I love French Toast. and it's been a while since I played some RM games - let's do this!

As fate would have it, I also just finished posting a review of Re & Apophis!

http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/36014-re-apophis-demo-1/?p=359118

And agree, this game is quite interesting! People should give it a try, especially if you have questions about building a strong atmosphere, because this game has that and then some!

This is a neat idea! I'll make sure to play some games and leave my thoughts! :D

And here's a review from me for Aether Chronicles http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/31684-aether-chronicles-key-to-heaven-demo-available/?p=359242

It has a lot of potential but needs some more polishing at this stage.  Definitely one to watch if you like the sort of style it is.

EDIT

And here's one for Flip Dimension http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/36235-flip-dimensions-includes-demo/?p=359301

This one, too, has good potential, but is also at an early stage.

My intention is to give more time to early projects because I think getting detailed feedback at that stage can be hugely beneficial for less experienced developers.  I hope that's okay with the rules, because it means that I'm unlikely to review any full games.

Well, this certainly one way to get me to play more games from here, as opposed to RMN! It's good that I have until April, though, since I'm in the midst of an event elsewhere.

There is a pending status on my first written review.  I'll edit this post with the link once it clears.  My video reviews all didn't record for the games you suggested, so I'll be translating them over to written shortly.  Really hoping people take advantage of this event to see some hidden gems.  

Or they can delete my review despite following the rules exactly, and without notification of rejection.  I'll just post it to the thread here: http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/28622-sunken-spire-game-released/page-6

Very interesting, getting everyone to review games.

Well, I've done enough reviewing on Let's Playing anyway, you guys have fun commenting on each other's mistakes/impressiveness.

@archaeia

A couple of the games that I've reviewed will be putting up significant updates in the next few weeks.  By significant I mean a complete reworking and/or a substantial new chunk.  Would it be within the rules to do a second review where there have been major changes, or must each one be of a different game?

It must be a different game, at least for this event. The goal is to make sure all games in our boards at least get some form of feedback or discussion. If there are changes or responses from the makers, that means we are succeeding! :D

Me watching the game awards.

Gonzo, shut the **** up and show use some Elden Ring DLC. tumblr_422af97288e81470bb4ea56cce38e220_331927d8_500.gif
THE GAME AWARDS AHHHHHH!!!!!
I kept saying I suck at writing stories. But I can't believe I wrote one these days. Feels good now that the winged blonde girl I often share has an actual lore and plot going.
Huge breakthrough! I finally fixed the dimensions on the WEBM used in the cinematic that ends the demo and introductory segment in MC:RIS, around the one-minute mark:



(There's some audio desync because the capture is an MP4.)
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 guess I've made conceptual progress in hammering out combat roles and having fixes to be implemented (though I haven't done that yet)
