That has to be the strangest fake-out I have ever seen in all my contest entering life XD In fact, all this game teasing has felt like one big fake out contest. Fenrir Prediction Time: It will be a Castlevania: Symphony of the Night kind of game. Please, please, please!!!!!! EDIT: Guess what I'm mak...

Hey hey hey, did someone say solicitation of features? It would be neat to define backdrops as tileset layers, and have backdrops larger than the screen size, so it's all just one image. And some way to set tileset layer velocity. EDIT: and multi-window support would be great. Switching between all ...

re: points of interest I'd view it in terms of the screen size rather than the player's step count. You want there to be something interesting on the screen at all times, ideally. If not, no more than a screen's space between. The same applies to random battles. The frequency depends on if there's a...

It's 2012, time to learn to draw with a wacom my good man! I'd bite the bullet and use mspaint and a mouse (which i have) before ever considering doing 20x20 maptile piece work for a backdrop. Do you enjoy pain? The less colors you use, it's really not as painful. I do enjoy the editor for more deta...

Fen, I'm really struggling with the spirit of this contest. I want to believe it's simply 'make a funny fun game', but funny bad or funny stupid or pohrn or funny what? And don't say it's up to the judges or people voting!! ARGH Spoony prediction time: It's one of those making fun of indie 'salads a...

I think the ATB system is overrated. It's neat, but easy to improve it into something different. The action queuing has me visualizing The Sim's. In theory it can work, but in practice... it will be a desperate struggle. I've tried a variation where you queue actions of like 12+ individual character...

@Guo I like you, (not in *that* way, but in a NeoSpade way,) so I'll be the one to say it: it's a weird name, I wouldn't attach yourself to it, and you don't have to worry about branding yet. The game had like 2 or so maps to it. It's still a wild card, full of possibilities and wonder, and has yet ...

I've been trying to reproduce it, but have been unsuccessful. On the up-side, I was able to compile the 'new line' script in a new rpg file. False alarm (sorry TMC). On the down-side, this will be the 3rd time I've had to restart. The error in question: whatever it was, it had something to do with t...

First concept. There was a (surprise, surprise) well done online fantasy card game that used a mechanic like this. Can't remember the link. Essentially, different cards/actions have a cool down time. Tactics involve putting down 'mana' (rts resource management) to build up to stronger actions. It's ...
