2024 has been and gone. Are (You) going to make 2025 the year (You)'re game or demo is finally complete?
>>3695319I'm developing strategies to complete other people's projects.
>>3695325You're not going to cure cancer with ChatGPT.
Would 8 bit music fit into my 1bit commodore styled game? Cant; find any asset packs with 1 bit music anywhere. (Sorry it looks lowquality, had to jump through to many hoops to compress this)
>>3695403you are the master of your own destiny make what you want
>>3695403Channel your inner Tim Follin and go for it.
>it's been 8 months since Unite launched So, are there any games made in it?
>>3695333Think of it as conquering depression or neurotic tendencies. Nobody said anything about ChatGPT. But I'll say this, it provides instant feedback, which is important if you want to be in a productive flow state.
>>3695403The Commodore 64 was 8-bit and used a sound chip called the SID chip. What exactly do you mean when you're asking about 1-bit games?Unless you literally do mean 1-bit music like the ZX Spectrum. This is one of the best examples of ZX Spectrum music. Most of it is wretched.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLOJMHKjHCo
>>3695426
>>3695426Oh, my dumbass always thought the c64 used 1 bit music.
>>3695426Also yeah, this sounds like ass. Im gonna make some 8 bit music now.
>>3695408My mind is just in the gutter, I guess. The "strategies" I'm picturing are coom brain S&M dominatrix fantasies.
>>3695319Is that screenshot real?

>>3695447I'm not -that- or any kind of cheerleader. That's bondage discipline, btw. Not the sadomasochism part of BDSM. Although the line is blurry. That reminds me. There is a theme in Fantasy series where women are in control of men literal and figuratively. Sometimes it's softcore muses, other times its hardcore girlboss dog training. I used to think it was just fetish fuel. But now I think it's an a a a analogy for something else.
>>3695403This game is definitively not 1bit.

>>3695504I'm making a dungeon crawler with randomized floors. so far 13 starting classes to pick and form a party of 3.So far I have 33 floors and 42 enemies spread acorss over 200 encounters. Hundreds of items using some Yanfly plugins to attach things to them to grant stats and skills.One town with a few evolving npc interactions based on how deep you went into the dungeon. Some shortcuts to bring you back to town every now and then.I plan to add one story quest per character that you need to get on different floors at different points of progression to complete.
I'm making a magic school game. What should I put in it?
>>3695560Professor Salik as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
>>3695560Oh hey, I'm making that too, except it's a kindergarten.
>>3695579"A succubus has a penis. True or False?"
>>3695628What's to say she can't grow one? You meet many kinds of men in this line of business.
Lol. "Avada Kedavra" is prohibited
Coincidently, MZ's Wizard Pact DLC is decent. I wonder if it's included in RPG MAKER "WITH"
Happy New Thread, everyone. Officially designating this the GMI thread.
>>36956901800 enemies
>>3695426This doesn't sound bad.>>3695690Knightsneed, it's a treat seeing you post enemies but including memes in your game is risky because they tend to age poorly.
>>3695745Thank you for the feedback, I'll alter the shirt
>>3695460No.
>>3695597Pls be a porn game
>>3695893
>>3695628>slopkys
>>3695628I could write you a book about that. The short answer is they're shapeshifters. The long answer is anything can be a succubus. Including an imaginary man banging your wife.
>>3695628The way I see it, False Awakening is incomplete. Not just because we never got part 3. But there's kind of a plot hole in part 1 that he must have considered but left out of the game. In part 1, Salik is just "cool. I'm lucid dreaming. I'm going to do all kinds of things." He makes jokes about wet dreams. But he keeps it PG because he thinks he'll wake up if he gets too excited. But in part 2, when he wants to wake up, the only solution he can think of is killing himself.
Art redo nearing completion. Think this is the best piece thus far.
>RPGMN is still down barely working if at all and still has borked searchesAnother site bites the dust
>>3696255Where else can you go to download free RPGMaker RPGs that aren't porn?
>>3696273Genuinely I don't have any idea unless you're willing to do a fair bit of backsearching for old downloads, I guess there's other different language RPGM sites that hosts games and such but if you're english speaker well shits fuckedI never liked how scattered everything was
>>3696205I've said this before, but I think his Sigma character is the weakest link. Based on the episode title card colors, I think part 2 was meant to develop Succour, and part 3 was going to focus on Sigma; but that didn't happen. He's done a lot with Succour in False Heart (False Spaces) but Sigma is still this background character. That game was also left to be continued in "False...something"
>>3695504Just workin' my way through stuff. Finished the second continent and am now moving on to the third and final one.I also started redrawing the Party Chat/Skit Portraits. This time, I’m preparing them like I would Live2D models, so I’ll have better control over all the individual parts. It’s a lot of extra work, but it’ll make things easier for me in the long run, so I’m sticking with this approach.
>>3696319Part 2 is subtitled "False Genocides". But I don't think he's been working on it. He's been blogging under his Dogma & Liberty and False Arcade itch.io page, but he hasn't actually updated any files.
any devs doing a romance game, why is it such a rarity in rpgm games outside the literal porn ones?
>>3696368Most people can't write romance for shit, also because the current rpgm nu gen makers only care about muh gay lesbo shit "romance" you would have to go back to 2000s to anything if it's there at all
>>3696374gosh you reminded me, its not that no one makes dating sims or romance stories anymore, it's just that they always have to be queer or comedic for some reason, heaven forfend they play the plot straight for old times sake.
>>3696368Honestly, I'd rather play a game about manly guy friends doing manly things like playing video games, drinking beer, discussing J-Pop idols. overthrowing the government and devving together.
>>3695866Can you make it real?
>>3696205>>3696319>>3696352Samefag.
>>3696534Why are you like this?
I replayed ff6 and it surprised me how it played just like bad RPG maker game, mechanically,
>>3696658Are you sure it isn’t that bad rpg maker games play just like ff6?
>>3696658Funny how genres work.
>>3696660I swear the gba version I played had grid free movement, and I played it like 4 times.
>>3696319>>3695628I remember reading a study that showed that people report dreaming a higher encounter rate with the opposite sex. Regardless of their orientation. Don't ask me how that works with trans people. Like, if you're a guy, you'll be dreaming about going to grandma's house, on a bus, with a female driver, sitting next to female passengers, probably. Personally, I think I see this in people's games too. Where there'll be a lack of male characters, or male characters with any personality.
>>3695333Says whom
>>3696545She needs help
>>3696658FF6 plays like shit but hard carried by literally everything else

>>3696755I only know MtFs, but I would say their projects focus on female characters as well. It's worth noting that content curation / coding / tagging systems produce their own biases. So identifying differences between the sexes in dream journals isn't anymore effective at identifying shifts in dreams from the same individual as they age. It's like booru boards don't have tags for everything. Or how Steam tags makes games look more homogenous. They try to do this kind of analysis with authors too. Saying men write towards admiration, while women write towards vulnerability and sympathy.
>>3696247nice upgrade. show him in-gaemwen demo or release?>>3696343art looks official. why new outfit for shu?>Finished the second continent and am now moving on to the third and final one.release soon?keep hustling bros
>>3696352What strategies to use :)
>>3696892Thanks brudha.
Does anyone use Pinterest for resources? I "pinned" stuff 7 years ago, just to help signal boost content. But those URLs don't exist anymore and redirect. So the pins have been replaced with some Online Poker site. So I deleted it all.
>>3696934Perhaps the reason Episode 3 of False Awakening was never completed was because he was running out of sleep phenomenon. He covered lucid dreaming, sleep paralysis and paralysis demons. Chase dreams. Nightmares.But what he's left to work with might be kind of lame. >he had to pee, but there was a really long line to the bathroom. >And then his teeth fell out. >the endHe could probably do something meaningful with an out-of-body experience and sharing a dream with someone else.
>>3696658have you played 5? That's the one where the gameplay itself is solid
Does anyone know where I can find tutorials for Maniacs patch? I am fine even with a Japanese one. I did some basic shit you could do even without the patch and I want to do more stuff.
>>3697360What sorts of things are you hoping to do/trying to do that the Maniacs patch functions might help to accomplish?
>>3697363Like making a sample spritesheet for bigger than normal sprites without the color depth limitations. Though in my case just making my own spritesheet and inserting it successfully would count as a big accomplishment.
>>3697366Well just to be clear, if you're using the normal character walking graphics and whatnot, those are hard limited to the usual 24x32 dimensions. The color limitation doesn't apply, but some parts of the editor have trouble displaying certain types of graphics that aren't indexed 256 anyway (they'll still work in-game).And even with larger walking sprites, you're still locked to the usual 16x16 grid, so that's something worth considering.
>>3697371I found a tutorial on how to make spritesheets for bigger character graphics in MV and it seemed easy enough so I was wondering if I could replicate that in 2003 MP. I'll assume I can BUT then it would have to be NOT>normal character walking graphics and whatnotright?
>>3697405Correct. Unfortunately, at least to my knowledge (read: I've never tried it because this isn't something I've ever wanted to do), it would take quite a bit of work and show picture+spritesheeting sorcery to effectively replace the stock character graphics across the board with pic spritesheets. Several reasons come to mind, but the biggest/worst one is>No way to display a picture on the same layers where events are drawn - forcing you to deal with writing a sorting algo for them (not a pain in and of itself, but I'm assuming a bit above your pay grade if you're asking this at all)Basically you'd be stuck dealing with some really crappy parts of eventing in a non-standard movement system without actually doing a non-standard movement system, which is already pretty high up on the list of things out of reach for many devs.
>>3697421The other alternative is the tried-and-true>use multiple eventstechnique used since time immemorial, but this has its own drawbacks and headaches despite being simpler (and not requiring MP), relatively speaking.
>>3697233He did put out a "false engine" you could theoretically use to write your own ending for this or any other project he leaves unfinished.
>>3697448Anon, I...
One thread without him. ONE. I beg you. Turn pakistan into a fucking glass crater if you must, but he's everywhere and I'm fucking sick of it.
>>3697881this is all that's leftit scared off almost all of the actual devs because nobody wants to be associated with the fucking guy
>>3697906>the actual devsthese never actually existed though, it was always oops all thread schizos.
>>3697906I stopped because of the lack of interest in jams, I don't care what some random pakistani thinks of gays or women or whatever this is about.
>>3697936Jams always went to shit either way, you weren't missing out
>>3697924>it was always oops all thread schizosmfw
>>3697939I was here for the last jam, Hero's Party Party made me lol.
Jams... Sovl...
>>3697965I'm new here but to me those jams look crazy shortTake a 20 day jam, assume 5+ hours a day with remainder for job/sleep etc, it's only 100 hours to go from brainstorming a concept to releaseif you were making a 3d game, a single rigged and animated character model would take at least 100 hours unless you deliberately chose to go low poly or another limitationasset production sucks
>>3697995they were pretty short but the games were pretty fun
>>3697995Our jams were actually quite long since we were only doing it for fun. Most competitive jams lasts only for 3 days at most. But that's just kind of the point of jams, to put your creativity, resourcefulness and discipline to your test.
>>3697936This. Only queershift cares about ligma because ligma receives more attention than him. Ligma is related to 4chan's culture somehow, the lgbtqp+ faggot is not.
>>3698106>4chan's culture is sharia lawinshallah, brother
Alright. I'll make a new jam in 8 hours if no one makes one. Suggest a theme or I'll pick a random word
>>3698178Islam
>>3697881>>3697906Only little children, who have failed to become an adult, care enough about their opinion over one person that it disables them, and turns them into whining little babies.Your parents have failed you. You were undoubfully neglected and you still are. You live in a narrow world where you have become intollerant of others, simply because they think or feel different than your expected standards. People don't live in your bubble, but you need to touch grass to realize that.Go watch cocomelon.Game development requires spending less time in your opinion bubble and more in GIMP or whatever art software you prefer, designing tiles.And no, don't make plugins-. You're looking for recognition, the need to feel important, as such, it is just escapism. Make a game.Make a game or don't make a game. If you don't want to make a game or feel like you lack skills, learn, gain skills, research the software and make stuff you're going to use, not for other people.Stop looking at other people, seriously.I know when you struggle with dissocial behavior or narcissism that this is very difficult, but you really need to stop caring about other peoples reputation or results when it comes to art."But I need my immediate dopamine" --> cocomelon will provide you.
>reddit spacing
>>3698186Ok but this is probably too narrow. I'll make a Religion jamhttps://itch.io/jam/yourpgm-jam-18-religionHere you go.
>>3698217based retard taking shitposts seriouslywill you make a thread?
>>3698221I feel like we can just use this thread given how dead it is and the resulting jam thread would be probably even deader but if someone creates a jam thread I'll migrate. It's been some time since I used RPG maker. Life is getting busier and busier each year. Hopefully I still have it in me for one more game.
>>3698217Heh, I already have some stuff set up for a project that fits this theme. I think I'll join.
We are SO back
>>3698194That's easy for you to say, Coyote. You're like the guy who tells virgins that sex is overrated while hiding your little black book.
>>3698194oh so if hitler showed up to these threads you'd be willing to associate with him? says more about you than it does about the rest of us desu SENPAI
>>3698301Well he does sound like a cool guy to go drink a beer with from time to time.
Guten Tag!!! Ist meine erste time posting here so please be höflich zu mich und tell me what ich can improve on. Das spiel ist um my worst nightmare!
>>3698256
>>3698415
>>3698335wow I suddenly can read German and understand Hitler!!!Make this a full game please. Me and my cool friend hitler expanding lebensraum
>>3698417I think if anyone was going to write an ending for Episode 3, they would have. They probably would have reached for low hanging fruit, like anime tropes.
>>3698441Salik has no reason to kill anyone. Which means he would have been compelled by some force. The Death Note, for example, can control people. But it requires a setup. In a story like False Awakening, A geass that controls people would effectively be like lucid dreaming.
>>3698449In retrospect, the parallel between Codex and C.C. is so obvious now. But Codex wasn't formally introduced until False Rebirth.
>>3698451And the rationale "it was a joke"Like that Hitler meme; "Eliminate the Juice"
>>3698194Fuck off, CoyoteSuccour
Okay, haven't visited these threads for a while.Did ligmasucker figure out how to samefag and is now shitting up the thread with fake discussion of his games?Is that what's happening here?
>>3696928Here you go, fren. Demo release One Day(tm).
>>3698217Needs a new thread for more visibility
