Hey Event Event, I will stream all games from Event Event in about 1h30min from now, feel free to come by. I hope I will do them all in one go but we'll see what happens. xD
Here's stream link: https://www.twitch.tv/zorochii

I'll later on upload the VOD to youtube so it doesn't get lost and stuff, and it should be available later too as a highlight.

Sorry I couldn't catch the stream. It was at like 2:45 AM for me and I can't really stay up that late. I'll be sure to see other streams that are made as long as they are during a reasonable time for me! (Like, 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM EST)

Just warning everyone, my game in it's current state is completely unplayable. Please wait for my patch which will be coming in the following days. Thank you.

Just posting stuff here so I won't forget:

-Piano's game was a cool standout - featured this month, worth checking out.
-Fflo had a really cool funny french accounting game that orochii really liked.
-Ulevo's game had a neat CRT effect for rpgmaker2003.
-CrazyBabi's game was neat, dialogue, everything, as usual, really great.
-Titenic 2 is great, super unfinished, but from what I saw it was a really neat metroidvania set inside james cameron titanic.
really wish it got finished in time. holy fuck, it was so funny and such a cool idea.

-shuruzy's game was the real highlight for me for this event, they took a bunch of previous events and made a really cool game out of it; the dialogue is great, the characters are great, the art is really great, it's short, it's simple, it's really engaging but also really fun and it's only a demo.

we haven't finished soul's or krimsonkatt yet, cause katt's game had a technical issue and soul's game was quite long, but orochii's probably gonna try and finish it, but I'd like to see the end of that one as well.

This was a really cool event, if you do another one of these, I'm definitely looking forward to it.


EDIT:I was really surprised at how long some of these event games were.

As I said before in a previous post on here, my game is broken and unplayable because I didn't have time to playtest it. The patch should be out today and if not that tomorrow since I'm off school and probably off work as well next week since my mom has covid. BTW the game so far is just a demo. The full game should be out by the end of may.

Edit: Also I'm guessing the "xvideosenergy" guy who posted 3 or 4 times on here was a porn bot who got their messages deleted and account banned? Weird.

Update: I've done mostly everything to fix the game, (Noel and the Tower of Doom) but I have one issue. The custom battle intro animation I have is bugged and the only way to fix it is with some sort of "picture masks" plugin for RPG Maker MV. Luckily I found one pretty quickly, but it requires an RPG Maker Web account to download it which is a site I'm permanently banned from and my multiple appeals I've made throughout the last 2 or 3 years or so never got any response. I made a thread earlier today but no one is answering. Can someone please download the plugin for me and cross post it somewhere else like on GitHub? I checked the TOS of that plugin and the dev says it's 100% okay to repost his work even without credit, which I find kinda insane but he can do what he wants I guess. Here is the link to the RPH Maker web post that has the plugin. Please help me!

https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/picture-image-masking-plugin-simple-graphic-effect.119767/

Edit: I'll remove the custom battle intro for now and playtest the rest of the game, then add it back once I got that masks plugin. I've gotten through the entirety of the town fixing all the bugs and now all I have to do is fix whatever bugs are in the dungeon.

@KrimsonKatt: I can't reschedule my streams sadly, as it's all the time I have available for it. Sometimes can go longer but not earlier. Hopefully the VODs give a chance to whoever can't attend to at least check out impressions and whatnot.

Second VOD! This one includes all five last games from top to bottom as they appear in the submissions list:
- Initial Legend (Demo)
- Noel and the Tower of Doom DEMO (v0.1)
- Titenic 2
- One Final Burial ("Event Event" Event Version)
- One Million Steps - Temp Upload

Here's the VOD on Twitch.
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1811837047

Here's exported to YouTube, since it's cost zero to do, no chat tho.

Generally speaking I think it's a decent game, it manages to be quite long considering the time for development, the custom graphics are great, a part of me kinda wished the characters were custom to match more with the environments, but the idea of the RTP people living inside a boardgame is nice.
Gameplay suffers due to RM2k3's mechanics, but generally the balance is alright. I wish characters had a bit more of uniqueness besides base stats. Main dude being the best damage dealer since he got two weapons. The rest are a bit samey. There's no skills afaik (still pending two more zones to traverse).
All in all, it's a cute game to play through. I believe it has good potential, it was obviously limited by time.


The Collector Ver 2.1
Show
Piano did a thing and I, heck this is great. First, not only do I applaud the mechanics being well done, but also that the game has a satisfying conclusion. Month well spent.
On things I can critique, some alerts were unnecessary (bonk, you hit a wall, as text, every time you fail to punch a wall open with your skull by mistake). There's an unfortunate lag issue which hopefully gets solved. And maybe using wands should be optional, be used as the rest of items through a menu instead of automatic, just to control when and where you use them.


When Death Wills - Underworld Accountant Agency
Show
So here's the thing LBR :hehe:. I can't concretely explain why I liked this so much, I just enjoyed my time with it. I can enumerate things I liked. The jokes, the funny references. All things are light and chill. No time limits, no battles. Just. Get a silly premise, get a new job as French accountant (?), and solve quiz. About accounting in France.
Despite the unknown, the necessary clues were given, and I think the questions were fair. Idk, I liked it, it's just nice.
About things I'd change? Tilesets vs character graphics, they got a different resolution (the pixels in tilesets feel more stretched than in the character's).


Fall In Harbreze version 1.00
Show
CrazyBabi makes games I like. Balance throws me into using all the tools at my disposal, and it invites you to try breaking the limits of everything. In that regard I think battles are very well designed.
I don't remember what issues I had with it, if any. Like, at the last boss I fought against I had one of my characters die, and they received half experience, which is nice. It gave me a reason to not reset. Convenience is always a plus.


Initial Legend (Demo)
Show
I wish this had more time on the cooker because just as Sorry! this was a neat concept. It's just RTP friends doing tropey stuff.
CRT filter is interesting, tho I really think the borders should be clamped and not repeat, so it gives more the feel of a TV screen. There was obvious nods to FF1 and FF2 especially on music and some map layouts. Couldn't figure out what the battle song was from, despite having heard other MIDI renditions of it before.


Noel and the Tower of Doom DEMO (v0.1)
Show
Too much piss. Ok I got issues with this game's sense of humor. I think I got a couple honest laughs but... piss.
Unfortunately there was an issue where the screen fade to black and never came back, and saving/reloading didn't help. ;-;
I am open to coming back to this (and finishing the rest of games I didn't finish while I'm at it).


Titenic 2
-it's my own game, no microreview-

One Final Burial ("Event Event" Event Version)
Show
I got nothing. This game is highlight.
The gameplay approach is more combat oriented, with some other smaller events sprinkled around for variety. I didn't find much use for the Scout ability specifically, besides giving me a bit of extra flavor text.
Visually the game is a treat, texts have nice formatting, althought I did find some of the item descriptions a bit random, like, sometimes flavor text was in purple, sometimes all text in same color. Sometimes it had longer gameplay notes in a smaller font, sometimes it was all the same format. That's probably my only uh not really complaint but observation. Dragon boy is best boi btw.
Definitely hope this gets finished.


One Million Steps - Temp Upload
Show
Ok so... I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. This one? Nasty. This one? --hm. Like, vanilla coke. I can probably drink it.
My issue with this one, well, balance was fine. Lost one party member against the chimera boss but that was on my side as I could probably have prepared just a bit better, was losing my gas to the end of the battle. Pressure felt fine too. Bar felt eternal, but it might have lasted less than I thought, maybe.
The thing is... it felt alright. It felt like a decent RPG Maker game. Nothing more, nothing less. It might also been unfair because, heck, it came just after One Final Burial, which was quite a highlight indeed.
However credit to where credit is due. There was some nice polish on acquiring items. Equipment felt like could get very nuanced maybe, and unfortunately I didn't cover much of it. And the world gave me that sensation of openness, where I'm up to my own, looking for my own adventure. It's something many games don't do, because a more linear approach is usually much less convoluted to develop.

Thank you so much, Orochii! I don't know how to fix the lag. It doesn't happen every playthrough, but...I think it's probably just the fact that the game is exclusively run through events, and uses none of the default RGP Maker environment. (I have her walking through the map, but I realized when I was nearly finished, I didn't even have to do that.)
