What was that "awesome game mechanic" you discarted 'cause it couldn't work with your game/project

Too many to name. I was going to have a very elaborate crafting system... which I had to simplify because it's not a crafting game. I had the most amazing ideas for battle systems, but they'd be too flashy for my game. I was even going to have a tool system but it literally had no reason to be there whatsoever.

Can you expand on this?
Was it a script or evented/variable?
I imagine you could pull a random variable on a player transfer, then assign each variable to a different map transfer event. The problem with that is players could miss maps, or, if a different variable needs to add to a certain number to flip a switch and force a transfer to boss map, players might see the same maps more than once.
This could be fixed, but it would mean that players would see all maps, just in a random order and i dont know if that would have any merit.

The map is generated, means you don't have to map it in the editor, instead the script will generate the map for you. Means, you will not miss a map at all.

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.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
