Looks rad!

How'd you get the camera to move? I tried getting a zoom effect a few years ago; did not work in the slightest

As long as you enjoy what you're doing anyways; You always did have a gift for this.

Hiii Tarq! :3 I am doing okay, though I am feeling more and more lazy and sleepy lately... Oh well.

I haven't heard a peep out of loney in ages.

Thanks!

That one is not being made in RPG Maker, so I'm not sure if I can say anything relevant regarding this.  There simply is an invisible camera object, that follows the character in a specific way. The screen is focused on the camera position and that's pretty much it I suppose. Some code and maths to update the view.

Thank you; I wish I also had more free time, heh.

How about you? Are you going to touch some old stuff? start new? or just came by to say hi?

I wonder if there is a way to make a sound echo?

So, this version is slightly more coherent, but still bland. (You'll have to excuse the fps, laptop isnt strong enough for RM and screencaps).

Noice! Keep it up then!  

Shit man, looks absolutely awesome though.
I did not expect to see this ever getting even this far. Supremely legit.

Thanks dude. Always nice to hear a kind word

Noice!  

Shopkeeper Carpets? Nice!  

Also there's a typo "pahse" at 0:11.  

Oh no. Cannot unsee carpets.

Lol Riki at it again.

Hmmmm, you know I tend to use transitions a ton for various things (mostly as a replacement for normal fades) but I don't know if I ever had a need to use it during events like this. One trick I did do with it though was use Graphics.freeze in an event before a battle so I could clear pictures without updating the screen. That might be a handy trick for people who want to display pictures momentarily before a battle. I believe Graphics.freeze doesn't update anything if the graphics are already frozen.

Oooh... Interesting. I'll look into that in the future.

Nah, that's how you know you have the potential for a good trailer! I have to do a lot of quick cuts to keep the pace high.

X is my favorite Pokemon game because I love the theme of the locations~ And you can play dress up too :3

Haha, I hope so Minerva.

@Takeo212I've never been too into the remakes so I'll probly pass on ORAS. But then Emerald was pretty rad so maybeee.

Nuzlockes are ace, I'd love to see your comic :3!

Did you pick up Ultra Moon?

@Nekotori I haven't got very far yet but the places look pretty nice so far. Pokémon towns are always too small though!

(slightly short rant/comment about ORAS/SM/USUM that was too long for a status update haha)

X/Y was my favourite game atm to be honest. If you want a 3D pokemon on handheld, I still whole heartedly recommend that over the new ones. My only problem was it was too easy but you can change that yourself with nuzlockes and such. Hope you enjoy it Tarq

Regular or.... special? 

Rice Krispies are awesome! I hope whoever invented them won a Nobel Peace Prize. I mean, how could they not?

 Add Puella Madoka Magicka and Humanity Has Declined to your list. Always trying to get people to watch those.

Puella Madoka I think I already saw the ending of (huzzah for AMVs) but I do wanna check it out regardless.

Humanity Has Declined is new to me though, so I'll check it out sometime next week

Finishing watching Dragonball Kai first~

Thanks Tarq~

Eww Toei. Stay away from anything those guys touch. I have no idea why they keep getting moneys.

Humanity Has Declined is kind of hard to find (or was a few years ago) so you might have better luck finding it by its Japanese title (which Idk off the top of my head)

I played the first one, and yes it was. Stealth games can be fun if done properly. Idk how well a program like RPG Maker would handle it. The best stealth games make great use of your environment. Shadows to hide in, and sounds that can attract or distract enemies. I suppose you could use terrain tags to make "shadow tiles". I'm sure you could script conditions based on how loud SE's play (footsteps, attacks, various environmental elements. There is a Proximity Script for Ace- not sure about MV- that lets enemies "see" the player. 

The pieces are there, but I wonder if 3D is the better route to go. Alien Isolation is the best stealth game I've played recently, mainly because the PC is pretty frail compared to the enemies. Assassin's Creed has always had pretty good stealth elements, too.

I started one. Ended up fighting with RPG Maker too much.
If I pick it up again, I'd probably do it in Unreal, GoDot, or something of the sort. More power to you though.

Alien Isolation is amazing af

I feel for you! At least you are not living in Scandinavia where politicians screwing us over is par for the course >_>

I actually prefer a desktop  either way :/ dang

Whatever happened to "no games"?

The good times are gone, I'm afraid. And in their place is Demon's Souls, Metal Gear Solid IV, the Last of Us... uh...

Lair..?

Uhh, Idk, did someone say there were no games?

There's more good games than that for the ps3, although not necessarily exclusive. Mirror's Edge was great. Journey. The flurry of RPS; Borderlands, Bioshock and Fallout.

There were a bunch of HD remakes that genuinely benefitted from the better tech; Shadow of the Colossus, the first Star Ocean. There were some cashgrabs that didn't but whatcha gonna do?

And then there were just fun games; DB Raging Blast 2 was, undeniably, a poorly made fighting game but I still got hundreds of hours of entertainment playing it with friends back when we had more time than money.

AND LBP!

??? No small game. Just a ginormous one that I'm really not working on anymore. I usually don't feel like doing anything productive when I get home form work, and when I do, it's in the form of housecleaning and errands more often than not. Maybe after football season I'll fill part of my Sundays with game devving. 

You dont remember? You said you were going to take a break from Regicide for a while with a smaller game a few months back. Well, nvm.

Work sure can be tiring but I think I'd go crazy if I felt like I wasn't doing anything productive except work.

I 'member! It took me a few minutes when I 1st read it. I actually ended up working on a new map for Regicide which is like 25% complete. Been a while since I even opened it, but I still know exactly where I left off and what needs to be done so it's completely out of mind.

When I'm off work, I'd rather just frolic and play! 

congrats!

Yay! It's a start. You can't build a skyscraper without putting down a firm foundation. I learned that the hard way...OSHA banned me from being an engineer 

inb4 I won't be able to beat him.
