Thank you that reassures me, I'm always afraid of writing gibberish :P

Yes I also was addicted to them and to Youtuber in general, lot of loud screaming but hey, it was fun and very entertaining lol.

My god, just checked and RM MV has almost 800 DLC, wonder how much it would cost to buy them all :D

Yeah I can understand, OFF's simplistic and "monochrome" graphics are quite charming and can create a unique atmosphere. Don't remember much about the story or music to be honnest, I should replay it one day or another. Nice that you know about LISA because I don't think is the most well-know RPG Maker Game even though it's a really good one!

Yes you're right about that :3

No problem! And if anyone's gonna be writing gibberish, it's probably gonna be me!

That was all the entertainment I needed at the time. Sometimes it's all I need now, too. I'm a simple guy like that.

Woah! I knew there were a lot, but 800 is crazy! That's a good question... Maybe one day when I have more money I'll buy them and let ya know! 🤑

Exactly! I also really like the low-rez sprites/tiles. At some point I wanna finish some older projects that I started in RPG Maker 2003, just because I like that look. LISA has a great art style, too! And I think its soundtrack was awesome as well... You know what? I'll reinstall it now and find out for myself!

Good! It's really nice chatting with ya, especially about games, cuz that's one of my favourite subjects (obviously)!

Lol let's write some gibberish together then :D

Yeah same, and having a good laugh from time to time is always nice and they can also introduce us to new games, like the Witch's House and RM for you, so its always a win! Thanks to them, I discovered the Amnesia series which has become my favorite horror game series even to this day, and certainly many others!

I though Steam let you know the total price of DLC but can't find it anymore, maybe I imagined it. So yeah no other choice but to buy them all I guess, let start saving money today :P

Oh you have some older RM2k3 projects? Nice! Yeah the retro aesthethic of this one is good too and some people have made incredible games with it! Saw a remastered version of all of the original RM2k3 tilesets by FinalBossBlues on itch.io a while back and always wanted to use them to make something because they looks really cool (link if that inspire you)!

Yes, I return the compliment, very nice and chill chatting with you, happy to have discovered your itch.io page thanks to AmalgamAsh :D Speaking of games... what have you played lately?

🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞124 days ago(+1)

Sure, why not? We're on a roll anyway! 😎

Very true! And yes, Amnesia is super cool, especially it's atmosphere! And some of the custom stories people made for it were also really good!

That's strange... Maybe it's because there isn't a bundle option for buying ALL of the DLC at once? I guess the total would at least show if the items are added to the cart. Yep, it's gonna take some time to save up, but we'll get there!

Yeah! I'd like to finish them some day since I have more experience with game development now. Oh wow! Those tiles look great! I actually have an unfinished project that I could use these with! Thanks for sharing that! 🙌

Me too! And I'm glad you took part in Ash's jam! It's fun to meet other game devs, isn't it? Let's see... I'm currently playing Mount & Blade: Warband, I recently replayed the Resident Evil 2 remake, and at least once a week I play Phasmophobia. Luck Be A Landlord is another one I enjoy. Other than that, I'll play jam submissions on itch.io and whatnot. What about you? What does Poulet play these days? 🤔

😎😎😎

Yes Amnesia's atmosphere and sound design are top notch *-* And yes some custom stories were really impressive, too bad the newer games of the serie don't have a modding community as big as the first one.

You must be right, don't have the courage to put all of them in my cart just to check the total price tho :d

Would love to see that actually, been aged since I played a RM2k3 game (should go back to it myself^^)! Yeah they look really clean, fell in love with them instantly! Speaking of tilesets, I saw your game Aqua's Pizza Party Disaster, haven't played it yet but the graphics alone looks stunning, cute and colorful! Congrats on that!

Yeah it was a fun time that jam, and Ash is such a nice and supportive Youtuber who always finds positive things to say! There were so many different types of games! If i'm not mistaken you participe in a lot of game jams, right? Where do you find all those charming ideas? Your of game catalog is impressive 🤩

Oh, always wanted to try one of the Mount & Blade games, it's kind of sandbox game where you have an army and you can be and do whatever you want right? Never heard of Luck Be A Landlord but looks pretty cute! I recently finished Hollow Knight and loved every second of it and i'm currently playing Dragon's Dogma. Also playing from time to time Zelda: TotK under a warm and comfy blanket, it's my cozy game!

I know right? Such a shame they didn't support the custom stuff as much after that. It would've given the newer games a much longer lifespan, too.

That's okay! I wasn't up to the task either. 😉

Awesome! In that case, I'll consider working on one of them again in the near future. Thank you very much! I'm really happy with how the graphics turned out for APPD. I don't think I would've been able to do it if I did all of it from scratch (as I've tried in the past), though. I used a lot of the RTP graphics as a reference for most objects and characters. That made the whole process a lot more manageable for me.

I always have fun with Ash's jams. And I'm very glad that my first jam was one of his, because I was so nervous to publish my first game, and it was great to have a supportive atmosphere to help me through that. For sure! And not just a variety of games, but engines too, which is a neat thing about the Mega Minutiae jams! I do a lot of game jams, yes! They're too much fun, I can't help myself. As for the ideas, sometimes I get inspiration from the jam themes and modifiers (which is one of the reasons why I do them), other times the ideas just come to me (which may sound kinda cliché, but it's true)! I love being creative and making stuff! 😁

That's exactly what M&B is about, yep! Normally I don't tend to like roguelikes, but LBAL is an exception for me... One reason is probably because it's cute! I've heard very good things about Hollow Knight, but I've not played it yet. It's art style is very pretty. I have played Dragon's Dogma before, but I kept getting frustrated when playing it. 😤 I was probably just being a noob, tho. 🤷‍♂️ Oh! A blanket and Zelda combo go well together, no doubt! I've never owned a Nintendo console, but I've always envied those who did.

Oh man... I don't usually write this much! 😮 This post has become a chatroom at this point!

Great new! Yeah I knew I recognized some sprites from the RTP but that actually was a smart idea to use them as a base to build upon. Just finished a playthrough of it while writing this post and... that was awesome and wholesome!! It gave me a strong Earthbound/Mother vibe and I loved the little scene after the credit! Good job, I had a lot of fun playing it 🥳

I completely relate to what you just said, this Mega Minutiae Jam was personnaly my first game jam and I was also afraid of posting a game and even more so because it was going to be recorded and posted on Youtube but in the end I'm glad I participated and I'll try to upload more games in the future thanks to that experience! Yes the diversity of this jam was definitely so cool and putting these engines in the spotlights is such a nice concept! I see, and yeah having themes and limitations can boost creativity. I can definitely see that you love creating stuff and it shows when playing your games!

Nice, I love these type of games but I'm always afraid to play them because how "open" they are, which is quite ironic 🤪 Yeah LBAL looks really cute, since a demo is available I should try it! Can't say anything negative about Hollow Knight, it was on my whislist for a very long time and I'm glad I finaly bought it! Haha, I can understand the frustration with Dragon's Dogma!

Me too lol, I'm a pretty shy guy even when behind a screen so that's surprising... and yes this is definitely a chatroom now 🙃

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you enjoyed it. That RPG Maker game is the one I've put the most effort into so far, and I'd like to make more games like it based on my own ideas (since it was mostly a fangame). I'm really proud of the map design in particular, as that's something I usually struggle with.

It's great to hear that the jam experience encouraged you as well! And your win was well-deserved. 💯 Exactly! That's why I like using older RPG Maker engines is because their limitations often create more interesting results. It turns into a puzzle-solving exercise with a lot of improvisation (which I find really satisfying). Plus I like the idea of making something that technically anyone could make in that engine without any scripts or custom stuff like that. And I'm glad you think that my creative passion comes through in my work. 😊

That's understandable! It can be overwhelming to dive into sandbox games like that (and time-consuming too). Sure, give the demo a shot! At first I thought LBAL would be too complicated, but I got used to it after a few playthroughs, and then it got really fun! I'll put Hollow Knight on my wishlist. Maybe I'll like it too. And maybe some day I'll try Dragon's Dogma again (but probably not cuz it makes me mad 😆).

It probably helps to meet in a game jam, since we already know we share a similar interest, ya know? And I guess this means the development of TSFoFH is on hold until our conversation ends! 🤷‍♂️

Thank YOU for making it 😉! And yeah it can serve you as a great prototype for future projects!

Yes it definitly was a positive experience and thank you very much! A big YES to everything you just said, completely agree with you and that why I love all these simplified engines, once you understand how they works it just feels like you're playing a game and it's so satisfying when everything starts to come together!

I downloaded the demo of LBAL and will try it today for sure, I love cute game so should be right up my alley!

Yeah for sure! Oops sorry, true that you're working on two games right now, maybe I should let you work on them 🤭

🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞🥞123 days ago(+1)

You're funny. And it's nice to know you played it, cuz it took a lot of effort to complete!

I look forward to seeing what you come up with next, too! I'm sure you'll take part in future jams hosted by Ash, right? Exactly! When making the game becomes a game itself, that's the best feeling! And the game usually turns out much better as a result.

Lemme know whatcha think of it! And don't worry, I won't be sad if ya don't like it. 😉

It's no use! Even if we stop commenting on this post, we'll probably just start up again on the next one anyway. 😆 I'll work around it instead!
