Title: Ack! 2 weeks with no charas! How will I survive?
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on June 09, 2007, 07:07:27 PM

Yeah, so, I'm going to Europe with my grandfather... and I most likely won't have any computer access for the next 2 weeks.  That means I won't have any time to work on A Forgotten Legend.  :(.  Anyway, I've been working on some different things in the database and I've been working on weapons and items.  (I found I have close to 125 already...)
I'll be working on the story and dialogs while I'm gone in my notebook, composing stuff in my music notebook... and being generally bored.  So, see you all around June 25!  (Ugh, I missing the first parade of our Marching Band Season... I guess the other 2 clarinets will survive,  we did have 5, but one went to colorguard and the other quit because we got a new band director with a few other Juniors...)

Which country?

Post by: A Forgotten Legend on June 10, 2007, 01:13:44 AM

We're visiting Poland, Slovakia, Ireland, Hungary.  My grandfather lives in the U.S., he's taking me on this trip to see where my ancestors lived. :p

Yeah,  We leave at 11:30 am  EST in the u.s. tomorrow...

Well, hopefully, I'll have some of my story written down, along with some coding and events...  I took some notes on the different options in the event commands like Variable Operation and Switch operation, Hopefully I can do something with this...

Can't wait 'til I'm back!

Title: So...

...what are you complaining about? jk

Seriously, you're going to another continent. Have fun!

If your that concerned about your game, get a little culture, ask about the politics in Europe, and put it in your game or something.

Be careful there. Ireland is full of leprechauns, which DO have the ability to set fire to buildings if you harass them. To not harass them, don't bring any briefs. Always wear boxers in Ireland.

I'm bored.  We're in Budapest.  We just went through the city on a two hour tour.  There is a computer here in our room, so I'm like, Yay!   Although, I' still trying to get used to the keyboard (For example, the y and z are switched, and the @ is with the letter v.  And I have to press Alt Gr to get it.)  And there is no speaker, so no music...

Its hot.  Like 32 degrees Celsius or something like that...

^Oh yeah, get used to it, it's gonna be hellishly hot this whole summer, at least in Europe.

Keep us updated, I'm interested in knowing what you think of Europe.

Post by: aboutasoandthis on June 12, 2007, 06:14:39 PM

I would murder someone to have your position. To be a tourist in Europe sounds THAT awesome. At least you have a computer like you've wanted.

Is your granddaddie letting you visit museums and stuff? That's the kind of stuff I like to do if there's no theme park.
