A Brief Postmortem
You can find my submission here: https://starfangdragon.itch.io/staceburg-chronicle
I did have to narrow my scope mid jam, but I managed to adjust my goals to be attainable rather than crash and burn. I was able to create a small town from scratch (I used the prepackaged assets, but all maps were made from scratch) containing custom characters (most of which did not exist prior to this and were created to be NPCs here) with at least one dialogue each. I successfully identified, researched, and resolved/circumvented issues I faced in the course of the jam. Overall, I’m satisfied with my work.
I learned a lot about RPGMaker MV during the jam, including a bunch of stuff I haven't used in the game yet. I am looking forward to continuing to work on the game, as well as other related projects, when I have the time. Next steps will likely be implementing random battles, as well as adding the other areas necessary for the main plot. I also want to start adding some non-human characters and maybe even try making my own parts for the character generator. We’ll see how that goes.
With that, it’s goodbye for the time being. I wish all my fellow students a happy or at least non-stressful back-to-school season. :)
