I think there's a difference between "using the default attack command often in battles" and "holding the spacebar"... The only time that literally holding down the spacebar will do as good or better than actually using your character's special attacks would be in a badly-designe...

EDIT: Games I don't have time for... lately it's been most of them. XD Seriously, I haven't gotten much of anything done on Okédoké, Puckamon, or Fnrrf Ygm Schnish in the past few months (though I have worked a little bit on another game, and I did get a bit of Okédoké and FYS:AHS stuff done earlier...

Without plotscripting?

Add a second invisible placeholder character first, then remove the first invisible character, then add the other hero. (And then remove the second placeholder, of course.)

I meant that the only Final Fantasy /Mario crossover-ing has been in that basketball game. I wasn't saying that there have never been other Mario crossover-ish games, only that there hasn't really ever been a Mario/Final Fantasy crossover that went beyond a few minor cameo appearances tacked on some...

mixing Final Fantasy and Mario(oh this has already been done by Square...) Sort of. If you were thinking of Super Mario RPG, there was nothing Final Fantasy related in it except for FF4's boss theme used for a boss that wasn't actually from a Final Fantasy game (I guess you could say the crystals m...

Hmm... how are you going to do evolved forms having better stats, new moves, etc.? It'd be pretty weird if evolving didn't change anything but appearance. I'm guessing it'd be possible (a script that checks if a Pokémon is evolved or not--maybe by "get hero picture?"--when that one levels ...

The default palette has a second pure black, at the darkest end of one of the blues toward the end of the palette. You'll need to use that if you want black pixels in a higher-layer tile. Of course, you can always use the old overhead tiles (push O on each tile you want to go over everything while i...

Put them in ZIP files first. Preferably with the version of GAME.EXE that you're using (and it's probably a good idea to rename it to "[insert your game's name here].exe" first so you won't randomly overwrite other people's game.exe's, also.) Other stuff you can/should include: the .dll fi...

Wow, that's a lot of obscure characters on the cover. I recognize most of them but there's one that I can't think of the name of and two or three that are completely unfamiliar. The others: Loser Man, Linkwolf (from the Dexmaster games), Salom Lancoven, Nummer (from The Kirby Lands), Herman (aka Fat...

Sometimes I have a general idea of what I'm going to do in the game (at least for the first parts), sometimes I'll plan out the entire story ahead of time... usually more of a general idea at first but by the time I get the game to a playable start I'll already have most of it figured out at least i...

About fangames and the law: even if it may be "technically" illegal to make fangames, it is extremely rare for a game company to actually crack down on fangames, fanfiction, or any other fan-stuff (unless someone's actually selling them and making money; I'd guess it would be much more lik...

Flying I do think is a meaningful type, in that it can mean "has power to fly/is in midair". Also doubles as the Pokémon world's version of a wind-elemental type, especially now that attacks can be either physical or special regardless of what type they are (so physical flying attacks are...
