Calculated Hiatus

It has been pointed out to me that I have (or appear to have) taken an unannounced hiatus from gam mak. This is not altogether true! I am certainly on a hiatus from Pe:Re. However, I am working on another, much smaller project in the meantime. I am using this as an opportunity to practice my scripting while offering several advantages: I can be more experimental with game features and possibly learn more, I avoid bugging out my 'real' project, and I avoid the pitfalls of the familiar long-term project scenario (end of the game is obviously better than the beginning, older stuff needs to be redone). This project is very dear to my heart and I am in no way abandoning it. I want to be confident that I have the knowledge and the skill to pull it off and make the project what it deserves to be, and to do that, I'm going to need a bit more practice first!

WORKING ON IT
Now this has nothing to do with the blog post, but I'd like to brutally nitpick that screenshot you posted. xD



Ever wonder why the Gourmand and Postman icons never looked quite the same as the others? If you look closely, you can see that the maid, vixen and stylist icon had a dark outline around them. In other news, I noticed you had no courtier icon, so I made some sorta noble-looking medallion 0-0;;

Also if there's enough material you should make a gamepage for this so I can stalk it :>

Miracle: There's not enough for a gamepage or I would put it up! Thanks for the nitpicks but, I'm fully aware - that is why it is a work in progress that I have not put a page up for yet XD The text of her stats is also not properly aligned for some reason, the class selection window is perfectly centered to the screen but not to the stat window, etc. However, I did all of this using modernalgebra's ATS as an experiment in using a custom message system to do a custom class-change menu (as opposed to directly scripting it all myself)
You can toss out every job above maid since maid and vixen are all people are gonna choose.

Just sayin.

Welp.


In other news, I really dislike your windowskin and text colour. Sorry :(

ikr. that's just default windowskin turned purple, and the green highlighting for stat names was literally completely random - just wanted to make sure I highlighted what needed to be highlighted for formatting and visual testing of the window. ("Gotta highlight stats in a color, uhhhhhh too lazy to check my color chart, \c{3} oughtta do it"). Things like tweaking the windowskin and text colors will come later when I am doing more polishing and/or updating it on a real game page. DULY NOTED

this is why you shouldn't post screenshots of such early WIPs
I beg to differ. WIP it. WIP it good.
