Damn, it's cold outside. My room is also cold as a result of the furnace not working properly. it really affects me when I sleep or when I go out of my room...
it doesn't help with creative flow either, but even still, I've managed little bursts of progress here and there.

I now realize the pain of that reboot. I've lost all my templates for RPGM... 
Also GIMP's updated so now I'm super not used to it and everythings weird >.<
 
Templates made me lazy so I forgot all the specific pixels for stuff now so now I need to go relearn that to make more templates.
rip.

A Windows update literally broke my computer... After a very complicated case of trying to access files I had to reboot the entire PC.
 
I rebooted with the "keep files" option, and now my PC is fixed and actually usable, the reboot in fact did not keep my files... I've lost everything, and I had no chance to back them up since the update was mandatory and just happened...
 
It was also a 6 hour update -.-
 
Goodbye game progression~
Goodbye drawings I never got to upload or finish~
Goodbye game saves~
 
I'm very salty right now...............

- Sister buys a cinnamon scented candle melt/freshner.
- Tells her I'm allergic to cinnamon so she can only use it in her bedroom with her door closed.
- Comes home from work, smells cinnamon, sister says "I forgot".
 
So now my throat hurts, It's hard to breathe and my sister just sits casually in her room like "oopsies".
 
This is why I'm not a family person.

My brother got a job not so long ago and the first thing he aims for is a new PC, because his current one is 'meh'.
That would require waiting months though, so I asked him if he'd like me to buy one for him, to which he agreed. I just ordered his PC right now; he'll eventually give me bits back at some point in the future.
With that being said... I assume gaming together will get more intense. 🎉

testing; don't mind that status

Uh... I had forgotten all about this place. But, yeah, I'm back-ish. Lots of stuff happened, but let's just say that it's all good things and I'm at a place where I want to be. And I miss messing with RPG Maker.

Actually opened RM and did a little work on Sovereignty today. Determined to push through this last leg and finish this.

One of the things I've noticed with the help file in every RGSS iteration of RPG Maker is that it says that one can make something other than an RPG with it. I'm curious to know if someone has done this, to the letter of something like a racing game or a puzzle game or Hell, a shooter.

Ouh I feel terrible today, I hope the worst is over. I'll better go to bed now.

Yesterday 12 hours at work; today 13... Didn't have time for anything, heh. 
I hope tomorrow will be a better day. 😅
 

So happy with my new profile pic lol. I can't believe I actually managed to draw myself! 

Hello, I would like to move this thread :
the game has finished. THank you and have a nice day sir.

It was fun while it lasted, but it has come clear to me that all efforts to get my computer working once more, and any future efforts, are futile. 
 
I'm therefore, throwing in the towel. 
 
Carry on without me, everyone; may gamedevs be glorious! 
 
And, thank you. It was a blast. 

I'm back.
Internet as down for a few weeks, so sorry for the sudden absence (not that anymore noticed since I only lurk nowadays ;P )

Starting to create some tileset for my village. So far so good. =3

The forum sure changed a lot.... anyone here?

YEY! I have managed to recover my account! 

I honestly feel bad for @Rikifive; I am flabbergasted at how something that simple now has been wrenched what, four times now!? 
 
Certainly takes the fun out of it... 
It's even less fun than the microtransaction happy Candy Crush. 
 
Actually, I do like that game, but forcing the player to use powerups that one has to either buy or cheat to get is some really f*cked up garbage. 
 
In some levels, if you don't have powerups, you're so far up garbage pass without a shovel... 

How's the RM community these days? I'm getting back into the swing of things but it seems a lot more quiet!

That moment when you revisit a game, see the thread's closed after you've finally became #1... Riki planned this!
 

Hello! Sure has been a while since I've actually said anything. Geez.

Been wanting to get back into game making but can't seem to get into it. I enjoy everything except the actual game-making (events and dialogue, basically).
 
Not sure how to get around this sadly. Maybe it's time for another IiaW type thing

So, now I have every RM engine. 
A big thanks to @Radiant Arin for gifting me the MV engine; now I can focus more on gamedev (once I have a working computer again) rather than figuring out how to save money for an irregular sale (I'd have to be out of my f*cking mind to buy it at full price especially since I have only a fixed and very limited income which I rarely ever see any of...)
Of course, I still have the season pass to grab, and likely, DLC as well (the total cost for all of it is four figures-something's rotten in the state of Denmark there lol).
But before I even get into MV, I absolutely need to have better hardware; I cannot have screen flashes, lag, none of that nonsense. If I have to use a shaky DLL file to even get MV to run, then it's not worth it.
