Mini Update
I haven’t really posted anything to the blog since like…. early September.
I have no idea when or if I’ll start working on the game again. I would have loved to finish it, but now I’m not so sure it’ll ever get done, sighh. If I ever start to work on it again I’ll definitely post something for it, but as of now the project is just kinda… not going to go anywhere for a long time. To put it simply, it’s on a possibly forever long hiatus.
Thank you to everyone who was interested in the game, and I’m really sorry if you’re disappointed at all!! Apparently I just wasn’t motivated enough to make an entire game, even though said game was going to be super short. Maybe one day in the future I’ll finish it. But until then, bye!~~
- 1. how long have you been working on your current project(s)?
Over a month, I think?
- 2. do you prefer working alone or with a team?
Well technically I am working with a team already! A very, very small team but I’m definitely not doing all the work alone. Although I am the only person doing art and everything that has to do with working with rpg maker. My sister wrote the story.
- 3. what are your biggest inspirations?
As in inspirations for the game? Jeez, I don’t know. The game was supposed to just be a one room one character type game and I didn’t come up with the story, my sister did! But I definitely think I wanted to start making a game after a close internet friend of mine made a game last summer, and because a lot of the games coming out recently are really pretty.
- 4. what other devs do you look up to?
Melting Moon!! I used to go on the rpg maker tag every morning, and I always really liked to look at her stuff. Plus her art style is gorgeous.
- 5. what encouraged you to get into game dev?
Nothing specific? I just had wanted to make a game for a long time and finally decided to do it.
- 6. what do you find easiest?
Probably the art stuff, like maps and talk sprites.
- 7. what do you find hardest?
EVENTS.
- 8. how’s progress so far?
I would say it’s good, but I haven’t worked on anything in weeks so… progress is not going anywhere atm.
- 9. do you have any kind of playlist or music you listen to while working?
Uhh, I usually just listen to my likes on Youtube. Sometimes I listen to the Lindsey Stirling radio or the soundtrack for the game, though.
- 10. how on-task are you?
Well I was churning out maps and talk-sprites and events every single day for a good three weeks, but then I guess I just wore myself out and didn’t do anything for a long time. I haven’t even posted anything to the blog until today.
- 11. what do you do during breaks?
I guess all this time could be considered a break, hah. Draw, write my story, listen to music and watch anime, pretty much.
- 12. how much are you into your current project?
I was really into it when I was working on it every single day, but as of late I’m just like, ugh. Don’t worry though, there’s a big possibility I’ll get back into it asap.
- 13. what other ideas would you work on in the future (if any)
My sister wanted to make a game about the world GSP takes place in. It would be a lot longer and have a lot more content. I’m not sure if it’ll ever happen since progress for GSP is taking a lot longer than we thought. Umm, some other things would be a visual novel game for my book, which I originally wanted to make just a regular game with rpg maker but I think it would do better and be easier to make as a visual novel. I still want to make something kinda like a series of one character one room games. I think it would be fun and they could all relate somehow, maybe.
Update
First off, I’d like to thank you guys for 100 followers!! It means so much, I would draw something but I kinda don’t have time for that right now.
I guess I should explain why I disappeared for a month? Well, I don’t really have an explanation except for I just got tired and real unmotivated. I had to work on some summer work for school, and I still have summer work for school and we went on a little vacation a little while ago.
I feel pretty bad because we’ve been really neglecting the entire project and haven’t even been answering e-mails from the voice actors lately. What really put me off though is the fact that a lot of the events I thought were working got messed up somehow when I had a friend come over and test the game. It was just really frustrating, sigh.
The game definitely won’t be out as early as I would have hoped, especially since school starts on Tuesday for me and already started for my sister. Bleuuuugh. So with that in mind, I have no idea when the game will be out or how well it’ll actually work. When and if it ever comes out, just keep in mind this is the first game I’ve ever made…… so if it sucks and there’s a lot of issues, just don’t be rude about it?
I’m going to do one of those devblog questionnaire thingies that your followers are supposed to ask you, but I’m just gonna answer them myself. That’s all the “content” I’ll be able to give you guys for a while. Sorry for being inactive!
We don’t have anything to update you guys on today, unfortunately! I needed to take the entire day to work out a lot of difficult events (for an rpg maker newbie) and work on maps and dialogue! So we decided we might as well just finally show you the bust shot for the Little Girl. She has a relatively important role in the game even though she has very few lines. I guess it’s up to you to figure out why she’s so important! In fact, it’s up to you to figure out all the secrets surrounding the game! I wonder if you’ll be able to do it?
A tiny area of a new room I’ve been working on today! ….Is that a floating tree?
Was it all a dream..?
((One ending is done! I wonder which one this is? Well, anyway, I’m going to get to work on maps again! You may or may not get an update on those. It all depends. We also still need a voice actor for the Grandma! Please audition if you can!))
