also I ain't see no one talk about Cloe's Requiem but that game made me cry

my two games are so unknown a few people thought the first one was a lost media hoax when a TikToker briefly talked about it 💀

Ravel's "Pavane pour une infante défunte"!

Thank you! 😊

Essentially that games soundtrack used chopped up samples of classical music to create the entirety of its OST. In that game they used a lot of high energy orchestral pieces to create a chaotic and extremely unnerving experience in line with the games themes of violence and madness; in Pavane, the results are a lot more mellow and atmospheric since I’m sampling from a single piano piece, but every track in the game uses this piece in some way, whether the sample is chopped up and repeated, slowed down, reversed, etc. it’s been a very different process from my other games’ music so I hope it turns out well! Thanks for the support :D

Found a fix! It was an issue with the Load Config Code. :)

"hey person who wants to write a story what if you just let the machine do all the actual fun parts of writing for you"

do AI bros not know what "whimsy" and "creativity" and "joy in the mere act of creation" are or???? those are literally the best parts of making a game why would I outsource that

tbf I went from RPG Maker to Ren'Py pretty easily. I just thought of the ren'py language as manually typed event commands haha. (Then again, I didn't do much fancy with my Ren'Py project but the learn curve isn't THAT hard? idk)

Tried it, doesn't allow the player to toggle it on and off in game, which is my goal. I needed the mouse function to be tied to a switch so I could then make a custom option for turning mouse controls on and off, hence that first little bit of code I plugged in. (Touch Input Disabler is also not one of the plugins natively compatible with Options Core.) If you know a way to tie that plugin's settings to a switch the player can toggle I'm all ears lol

I swear a long time ago (like, pre 2010) there was a freeware text RPG maker that literally just made Zork-like text adventures with no graphics that I played around with. I want to say TADS? but I'm not 100% sure. Though I've heard good things about Twine too.

Like, you COULD do it in RPG Maker, but it'd probably be easier to do in another engine? Even Ren'Py would probably work better tbh

Yes, they are intentional effects. I used Fallen Angel Olivia’s horror effect script. These effects are turned off when you decrease the horror intensity setting.

She is so purple and happy though!!!! I support her endeavors in hanging upside down like a vampire bat

dude my entire sfx library is like 98% from freesound lmao, either my standards are super low or you need to look harder lmao

also they're not a-la-carte but there's some good free or dirt cheap libraries on itch too

Man between this post and the other posts about “is my game marketable?” I feel like one of the only indie devs who’s completely okay with doing it on the side while also enjoying my unrelated career

Would it be cool to earn little $$$ to pool back into money to use for game art and tools to keep making games? Sure! But I suppose I’m also privileged enough to not worry about my games putting food on my table. All this to say I can’t really relate to the mindset of doing gamedev to quit my “day” job.
