Working on a new game made with RPG Maker 2003.

Expect this shit not to get finished like with the others that I've worked on.
Protagonist is going to be Kirby-like.

Add Wawario

i wanted this gate to be big
but limits on tileset and placement didn't go smoothly

 

[YellowLee]

i can see why half life 2 ditched the grittiness
it gets too forward in your face and they didn't know what the hell they're doing
example of this is when i made this concept art, le evil bad guys and corps o algo
but i don't to make them LEBG, more like villains with some personality attached to them

 

[YellowLee]

FUCK THIS NATURE ADDITION IS FUCKING RUINING THE PACING

i hope to God that i don't get fatigue *assuming i haven't already* while working on this

dev fatigue

Base all the game characters on shroom users so it'll be completely lost on the general public

>you found shroom media
>it's problematic media
although this is going through the general public, despite my coming controversies after it releases (probably will get a small userbase but i don't want them to be branoobs) and if it does okay, then i'm leaving soyjaks behind.

Is it gonna be like an actual rpg with fights and stuff or just a walking simulator

Does it have retro graphics that invoke a feeling of nostalgia

 

[𓅰𓅪𓃯]

Does it have unconventional game-design?

as someone w/ previous experience of game dev plan out your game as much as possible before final-proofing it. you got a general idea but you seem to be imagining it being able to go in all sorts of ways (red orb steals from blue orb went to girl fighting corporate bad guys) you got map designs, enemy concepts, and a built in rpg function, so work out the story. your level layouts look very bland but i assume it's a prototype, don't make the environments eye-rapey or it may drive away people. also be aware of feature creep, don't make it some 14-chapter epic when all your feeling is a 3-6 chapter game and KEEP NOTES ON HOW YOUR STORY GOES since your scattered ideas WILL collide and make the story not make sense if the story exists in your head and you can't keep your mind on a solid concept. i wish the best for your game.

>your level layouts look very bland
supposed to be, but only for pacing and walk speed purposes

i'd still suggest to put out a little scenery or two. maybe put a couple strands of grass, or a tree, bench, rock, etc. make all of them monochrome to fit in with your minimalist style. certain placements will have people recognize different areas better since everything looks dull already. other than that a very basic tileset makes it look low-effort/SOVLless and you wanna give something substantial to people. also make sure to advertise it somewhere.

each area will have this unique layout to it but not too much area size to walk around since that ruins pacing
it'll probably be a blank slate 'cause it can make players think what happens next via... story? i presume
