[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

i’m not going to have anything to show on this account for quite a while, so i suppose i should take a moment to talk about what i have so far: Birthday Quest is a game i (@spaghoner) am making in RPG Maker MV. it will be released for free and it will not be very good

[mike @spaghoner]

buy somethin', will ya??

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

i wanna do a larger write-up on tumblr once i’m off work but i did want to say thank you for anyone interested in bq. i can’t guarantee much (other than it will be a video game that you can play on your computer) but your excitement for it means the world to me.

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

ah fuck

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

if it takes any longer than that, i need one of you to come shoot me with a gun.

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

one of the reasons i haven’t been too forward with advertising the game or showing things off is because i don’t want to show anything i make until it’s good and ready. i feel like drumming up hype for a game that doesn’t technically exist yet is a cardinal offense

i had a plugin that removed the attack command for a few specific party members but i realized it clashed with a different one that i cared about more. thankfully the latter offered an alternate solution of just replacing attack with something useless.

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

i was troubleshooting a plugin that replaces the attack skill and accidentally made the world's most cowardly party member

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

genuinely didn't even know it was possible for only one party member to flee. i can't really think of how i'd use this but now i really want to

"mike are there really 30 status conditions in your game" look. it's funny to have way too many status conditions. lisa knew what was up

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

state icons. i'm not sure if they'll look perfect in-engine but they were fun to make

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

i'll have to see if i can make a loud thud play any time it switches to the idle animation

[Whoa!! It’s Birthday Quest™ @birthday_quest]

i could probably find a way to actually do this with more research, but then i thought of something even stupider: toffee can be ko'd outside of battle, but it changes his overworld sprite to a beat-up one and he moves around obscenely slowly. jackpot
