I WON'T BITE, UNLESS YOU'RE CHICKEN.

I'm Kiana, a hobbyist with wide interests and meager talent. I try to make up for it with enthusiasm and, when that fails, sheer stubborn-mindedness.
The title is my lame attempt at an ice breaker. Also a reference to one of my favorite foods, but now I'm explaining the joke.
My start as a hobby game maker was... I honestly can't remember. Back in highschool, so at least a decade ago. I found a few 2k, 2k3 and XP games in my early days on the internet. Eventually, I scraped some cash together and bought RMXP and got to work, though it never quite 'clicked' with me.
I still vaguely remember the first game I tried putting together, despite how awful my memory can be at time. A young mage, setting out on an adventure to learn every spell in the world. There were pirates and a plot that was both anemic and rushed. That's as far as I got. A computer crash brought the project to a merciful end.
Relatively recently, I picked up VX Ace off of Humble Bundle, like a lot of people probably do. While anything to do with scripting still makes my eyes cross, the engine felt easier to work with than RMXP. Though that's probably because I'm not an excitable kid anymore.
So I've been playing around with it for a few months now, familiarizing myself with the new functions. I've also been reading through others' scripts as a way to learn a bit. To my own surprise, I've found myself writing my own small scripts. Roughly 80 lines worth now, which is 80 more than I ever expected I'd be able to write. Nothing more complex than some window adjustments, though.
As for joining rmn, I've been lurking for about a month or so now, checking out games and browsing the forum. The general atmosphere seemed friendly and helpful, so I thought I'd give myself a kick in the rear and join already.
With the long winded introduction out of the way: Greetings. I hope I don't make a colossal ass out of myself.

Chicken tastes like chicken! Except when it doesn't. This isn't a joke worth explaining.

Yes indeed let us tap into the well of power that is your mind let us take it, mold it, and then attach a machine to it to extract it, clone it and make the world full of you and you alone shall rule the roost and we can all enjoy the day the chicken crossed the road, for it was delicious.
The road I mean.
Oh and welcome, do stuff and what not. Makerscore is your worth as a human being.

Welcome! Nearly everybody makes an ass out of themselves here at some point so you're in good company.
Friendly people are always welcome!
And don't worry, should you ever make an ass out of yourself, then there'll be plenty of people to kick said ass!

Really? :)
Welcome, Kiana! We've got forum games and derpy topics in Welp, Welp. Arts and inspiration in Creative Corner. And loads and loads of support topics around the top of the forum. It's great for getting back into game making. Be sure to check out the Screenshot thread to get some inspiration fueling your blood.
We are also on irc and usually helpful but also often quiet for long periods. The instructions are in the community drop down.
The rest I'm sure you'll figure out in no time. We're a friendly lot!

You wouldn't bite a gourd, would you~?
That depends on whether it's part of a pie.

Well, it was nice meeting you. I guess I better leave. I kid, of course. I aim to be friendly. Or at least helpful.
Good thing I'm bacon and not chicken! Also, welcome to RMN!
