Hello everyone, I have no clue how to do a Devlog. I don’t ever remember doing one of these. So, in my brain. This is my first . 

Idea: 

twinkle or whatever I call it is going to be a cute rpg  about this star who turns into a human. They have to find out how and why it happened. Along with how to get home . Pretty simple didn’t want to overwhelm myself.  I’m honestly happy I’m officially putting this together. I don’t expect a full game. But maybe like a demo?

Characters (might update but doubt it) 

  • star
  • animal companion ( possibly be a fox ) 

objectives ( for player in game ) 

  • catch animal companion
  • read signs ( along way, might tell about the places their in)
  • look for objects/clues (maybe to progress on)
  • find a way home / find out why they’re here.

day one(goals) : learn to maybe get more familiar with rpg maker 2003. Maybe even make a test game before actual game. 

That’s it , I don’t what else to add. I’m welcome to comments /inputs as I go. cause I want to improve and learn.

progress done for day one:

Goals completed.  I’m following a tutorial on rpg maker 2003 and currently really liking the engine. 


day two(goals)  complete the tutorial and maybe actual start to work on the actual game.  maybe also find more tutorials on certain things I want implement in the game 


( also message me if there’s any pixel 2d artists available. Probably might not get art but if anyone is interested and available. I would appreciate it)

Star and animal companion:  I didn’t make these sprites but I would thank the person who did. I really like and can’t wait to use them. Also you can find artist on here and twitter with the same username.  (This is so I can credit them in the official game) nuttatulipa
