it's been raining nonstop today, so i've spent the time sprite-ing and prototyping. opened up rpg maker for the first time in a long time, only to realize i'd forgotten yet again how to do even the most basic things. spent some time re-familiarizing before running into an issue that took way longer to resolve than i care to admit. in the end, the issue turned out to be a case of such egregious and infuriating human error that i had no choice but to close RMMV for the day in order to preserve my own sanity (>_<)
bruhhh, it was so frustrating, i nearly cried, but rpg maker is the only engine i've ever paid money for, so i am determined to make something cute with this thing.
happily, after a break and reminding myself to double-check the most obvious culprits before falling down an hour-long rabbit hole of "why oh why isn't my event eventing", the sailing has been much smoother today ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა
