Midnight randomness

Posted by Glen on Oct. 21, 2010, 11:03 p.m.

So it's 5 til midnight in my area and I feel like making a blog. Here's a bunch of random questions and updates to spark a convo.

1. Is anyone in the process of making an RPG? I'd be interested in testing it.

2. Can someone delete Ancient Ants Adventure from my "Favorite Games" list? The game doesn't exist in the database anymore and the option to remove it is not there because of this.

3. Have any of you played Final Fantasy 1 for the NES, not the ds/psp remake? It's so much fun. I'm about 1/4 done with it.

4. Do any of you like Tacos? I just woke up from a dead sleep thinkin tacos and immediately drove to Taco Bell and got me some delicious Chalupas. I think i'm good now. I might be able to sleep knowing that my stomach has been satisfied to no end.

5. Does anyone like the bright banner I found? I'm aware that it might hurt some eyes, but I thought it looked pretty.

6. Thinking about continuing a story I began to write in January. I don't know if any of you remember me starting a project called Ember Skies? It was originally going to be an RPG. I have 3 chapters + a prologue written. Might continue it.

7. I fail at staying on track when it comes to my online game "Aeon". Just thinking about writing online code makes me wanna go to sleep.

8. Got a B on an exam today. Music Appreciation. Basically a class on Musical History and origin. Classic stuff. Totally guessed on it. Pretty proud of myself. All I do is draw abstract and vector art in my notebook in class.

9. So I met this girl a few weeks ago and we've been getting really close. She has a bf though. The chick kept coming up to me, and kissing me, and trying to get her bf to break up with her. Then I find out that she "has" to get married in a year and stay married for 5 years so she can get her citizenship in the US…. smile and wave? Told her to stop cheating on her bf. Talk to me in 5 years.

10. Last but not least. I have a thing for triangles. They look awesome. ▲

Well, if you're dividing into item stats like that, I can see why you'd want a more individual-focused, descriptive method. As long as you can read your code (and that it works), nobody cares what method you use.

My equipment system is supposed to take on the simplicity of Earthbound's, but probably with less focus on actual equipment. While I don't have things like stats on them, the thing to make up for that is that the combat is skill-based instead of item-based.

Things like stats on items help a lot for character customization though, something my game lacks, as intentional as it is.

Okay. Time to work on my rpg game again, lol. I love swiching back and forth on projects. It's been a good 9 months since I took a break from the RPG. Think it's about time to give it some attention again.

Then maybe we can turn the tables and test your RPG, eh?

Ha, maybe so. I'm going to try to get a little bit of it done today. Maybe a mission/quest or two that involve the beginning of the storyline. Don't have any content graphic wise yet so I might use RPG sprites from the internet temporarily.
