lol yea i originally used color to break up all the information i was displaying, then i decided there was no need to display so much, so i made it only show the stats that the item has, rather than showing like Defense - 0 and such, i still feel it could be improved though, i just dont know what i could do to it to get it better :(

Hi...

Screenshot 1

This is what my scenes looked like before i changed them around, which one looks better ? ( i think the first image but im unsure )

...

It all looks really good, but I can see myself getting a little confused over some of your colored text choices. For instance, I don't know if the Blood Axe is red because it's bloody or because it's not supposed to be equipped. What does Hook n' Thorn's yellow text mean by comparison? If the star rankings are based on cool colors, why is my equipment red and yellow? And so on. There are too many games in general where I have to spend way too much time being distracted by, figuring out or just completely ignoring symbols or color schemes designed to help communicate crunch because of a lack of explanation or inconsistencies.

the colors are just to make certain equipment stand out, the color is based on the teir/rarity of the item.

i based the colors on PWI (perfect world international)

gold  = legendary equipment (need to be made using molds ect)

red/orange = better than legendary equipment, uses legendary equipment in the manufacturing process.

or course with the script im writing you can just set each teir's item color to be whatever you want, but thats what i based it on.

the white stats in the item info box are the items default stat's 

the darker blue ones are the randomized stats this item has been given

the light blue ones are the "stones" that have been inserted into the items sockets

hope this helped?

Working on some portraits.





Extra art assets.


@ShinGamix


I like the concept, but the lines don't look very good.

Just wanted some feedback on a few new tiles.


The tiles in question here are the grass (flat grass, not tall grass in the upper right hand corner), the dirt, and the walls on the building. The dirt and grass are from the latest RMC pack, and the walls are probably for the bonus pack, but I wanted to know what people thought first.

i really dont know, they all look fine to me, but im no graphics artist :p

@Hyde, not too keen on the wall tiles, seems more like an indoor wallpaper type look, 

do like the grass and dirt though :p

seems the tall grass looks a little "off" compared to the other grass imo

The tall grass is VERY off I think. I just have been too lazy to make my own yet, lol. :p


Soon though, maybe for the next RMC pack. Eventually, I'll end up having my own RTP, lol.

Took me over an hour one day to figure how to change the hue of an image.... "sigh"

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

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

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.
