I actually started working on a game last week. Not the one I wanted to make, of course, but a light strategy game I was talking over with a friend that would use freely available pixel art (RPG Maker stuff.) We then quickly established the variety of free pixel art available is less then ideal and I decided I’d take a shot at lowpoly modeling instead. I’ve been putting that off since, maybe announcing my plans to the internet will shame me into getting started.
Oh, and I finished the Kimika branch of It’s my own invention. Now I’m not really eager to play the normal branch and move on because it will not contain a comparable quantity of adorable Kimika.
I’m off to Anime Expo. If you are too, and plan to buy anything Muvluv related, better do it before I get there. I have quite a stash earmarked towards cleaning MG’s booth out.
Other than that, I’ve been slowly slogging my way through It’s my own invention while dealing with addiction to a myriad of other games, most recently FO3 that someone gifted me for my birthday. Oh, and I’ve accomplished precisely nothing towards creating my own game. Big surprise!
Well, see you next month. (´・ω・)
If you didn’t see my post on ARM, I’ve decided that AT3 is kind of a disappointment, nothing I’ve read in the spoiler department suggests it’s about to vastly improve in the later phases, and thus I don’t really feel like playing or blogging more of it. Sorry to disappoint those people who are still reading. I hope you enjoyed phase 1, even if I didn’t.
Helpfully, this gives me no choice but to actually get to work on one of my own game projects. After finals, that is.
April 5th Edit: Well, apparently my April fool’s joke was that I’d be getting back in the habit.
School is likely to ramp up soon anyway so I think I’ll not stick to a schedule and just try to post whenever I can find both time and motivation. That means not today, either. >_>;
Hopefully in May or so I can return to some degree of regularity.
Sorry for the long absence. My computer was fixed a while ago, but I decided to focus on academics until spring break started. That was on Thursday once I got out of class, but it’s hard to get back in the habit….
Spoilers, as usual.
Well, I wasn’t planning to blog today anyway, but to add injury to insult my hard drive decided this morning it hadn’t got what it takes to spin up anymore. Luckily, its death rattles yesterday provoked me into backing everything up, not a moment too soon. But my desktop may be out of commission until this weekend, depending on whether I have to pay for a replacement drive myself (replacing an iMac’s hard drive looks like quite an adventure, too.)
What I was planning to do today instead was hold a fancy poll in celebration of nearly finishing Phase 1. But that’d be a bother to set up on this netbook, so I’ll just ask you to leave comments. It’s been quiet lately, don’t make me threaten to stop blogging again!
So, who are your favorite characters so far? You can have as many as you want, so don’t give me a heroine popularity contest like the poll over at ARM.
And which ending shall I plan to go for? Saki, Finnel, the third Reyvateil who hasn’t appeared yet, Tatsumi, or bad end? I’ll probably blog about them all since it’s easy enough with the PVs, so this just decides my own playthrough, which is at this point rather irrelevant. (I think my latest save’s still back in Tokoshie Canopy, for that matter.)
Don’t be shy, keep me entertained while my computer cannot!
A random conversation from the Nicovideo comments:
“Are β-Types always flat chested?”
“Misha (adult) wasn’t.”
“Then Akane must be this game’s Shurelia-sama.”
This entry covers the final part of the cutscenes after finishing the Mebius Factory dungeon.
Spoilers, as usual.
I went over and watched one of Master LL’s play videos on YouTube to decode the Hymmnos in today’s PV and discovered the video quality is vastly better. Maybe I should be using those instead. They aren’t ordered by number so nicely, though. :p
This entry covers the boss battle at the end of the Mebius Factory. Unfortunately, there are still a lot of cutscenes left to cover in the next entry.
Spoilers, as usual.
