All of all! / Re: Quarantine 2020

Meanwhile in Texas...

Yeah, it's still pretty bad around here. Too many people aren't taking it seriously, and the state government is waffling so hard on the issue. Nothing is really being done to keep people safe, and it's just kind of like the wild west when it comes to whether or not people are social distancing or wearing masks. I'm coming up on month number five of not working, and I'm glad that I had some money saved up. I still have unemployment coming in, but it's getting kind of scary, and I'm starting to get desperate for work.

Update from here in Ontario, Canada. It seem to be under control, and we are currently in Phase 2 (dining only on patios with social distancing, limited numbers of people in stores at a time and only with face coverings, timed and distanced salon appointments). We're moving to Phase 3 this coming Friday (gyms and indoor restaurants will reopen but face coverings and social distancing are still required). The cases are falling every day.

Fingers crossed but everyone in my circle has made it out okay so far. A lot of elders are in care homes that are nearly completely locked down, but we recently started visits through plexiglass if the visitor tests negative.

I'm going back to work (physically) on Wednesday and we will be working in isolated pods (only necessary people in contact with each other).

All in all feeling pretty good about things. The government put out a form of temporary UBI so people who were laid off or not working were able to pay their bills. It's going to keep going until early autumn and they're hoping it will help save the economy from crashing.

Thanks!  The enemy animation is more that I haven't added that many frames to it, its just a three frame loop from a spritesheet.  I think the longest one I've done so far was 12 frames - but mostly because I've been so out of practice with sprite work.

The Maniac patch is designed to work with the official translation - so I didn't have any issues with adding it.

Not to bump but is the Curse of the Golden Heart still alive? Did I celebrate prematurely?

Well I love that xylophonic battle theme firstly and secondly I think it's epic that the enemies move despite the engine's usual limitations in that area, not as much free movement as MV but still not bad. The fade-and-attack animation is one of the smoothest I've seen too.

Never could get any patches or mods to work on any version of RPG Maker 2003. Though to be fair I spent two years playing minecraft vanilla before I figured out how to get Forge to work XD Maybe I'll try again if it can add some functionality.

Love the graphics. Definitely that sort of unique Gothic style Goblin Grotto rocks so well.

Looks so good! Just out of curiosity, why have you decided to make it tile-based and not allow free movement? Is it to control the pace of the game? I just wondered as it looks like you've
already added movement and camera controls separately.

Going for a classic dungeon crawl like Eye of the Beholder or Grimrock. So the game will be turn based, either with enemies moving after you do or on a turn timer thing.

Hey!

I just downloaded the maniac patch - and definitely adds a bunch of functionality.  Can't believe I missed it last year.
