I'm 33. It def feels a lifetime ago since I was frequenting these forums as a little 14 to 15 year old kid. I never forgot about you all. Game dev was never just something I wanted to do as a passion or hobby or art. I mean, it was those things for sure, but it was also an escape. And when I was a kid, I was escaping a lot of things. You all helped me through some tough years. I'm not sure how to ever thank you for that, even if I acted like... well, a dumb kid through it all. I truly hope everyone is doing their best and keeps doing what they love and what makes them happy and thrive.

I went with a FF-1 approach where you create the whole party up front by selecting classes. So the game might not lend itself to be that  "character" driven when it comes to the story since we don't know what will be in the party really. I hope that's okay with everyone.
I tried to make it as easy as possible to add new classes so we can expand on it as we go. But there's a handful of events that will need to be expanded when doing it, but I'll write a guide for it once I'm finished.


(Ignore spelling mistakes, I'll fix later )

Anyway, that was the most complicated and pretty much only system I had planned. So I'm going to move on to doing the actual chapter now.

I like trying a new style and always digged the sort of Link to The Past vibe you got going on here.

Was messing around with some art for the game. Trying to keep it simple and go for a more old school jrpg look for it. Are you down for that?



(ignore the character it's temp and in the wrong perspective)

Glorious, thanks. I think just having a game which you receive and can feel free to do whatever you like is probably the way to go, low pressure

34 now, think I was around 13 when I first started hanging around here, feels like a life time ago.

Got promoted to senior gameplay programmer, so that's something I guess.

Congratulations! I miss doing game dev, I should get back in to it. Webdev is really easy and pays well, so I'm sticking with that for a job for now. I'd love to open a game dev studio some day though.

32 these days, got kids and been working as a teacher for a while now.

I've gotten hooked on warhammer, ttrpgs and other boardgames ever since covid. I just couldn't stand being around a screen for anything else than work at that time.

What kind of teacher are you? All of my friends started wanting to do table top around Covid starting, so I got dragged into a few games. Mostly D&D, but some Coriolis, and some Wise Guys as well. Kids are fun, my daughter is almost 2 now, and we've thrown around the idea of having another.
