A Fresh Start

Those of you who have been following this project may have noticed that a new chapter hasn't been added in 10 months. I am afraid to say that this is because the project was kinda/sorta/maybe abandoned, at least until now (I can't even give up on things properly).

I intend to finally complete the game and release it in one whole package. A hopefully far superior package than the four chapters that are currently available. I also intend to chronicle the development process in detail, and in an effort to avoid spamming the blog section of this website I have slapped together one of those 'babies first websites' which you can find here:

https://learson.wordpress.com/

Much more detailed information is given in the first blog post there.

Cheers.

I'm pretty sure we all apreciate your sincerity, and it's an understantable feeling that I can really relate to (not in games, but in some stories that i've wroten in the past) so don't worry about that. It was cool playing your games. And if you need time to do it better or to drop it, both things are fine (tho a better game is always great)

You know, if i'm sincere, and if you're going to redo your work from the start, would you be interested in an artist to do the "avatars" for your characters? I think it was a little awful that some characters had green hair... while their sprite had blonde hair. It really bugged me for awhile while playing learson, so I wanted to simply ask you. Send me a pm if you're interested and want to discuss about it.

Yeah, disregard pretty much everything in that blog post.

I gave up very quickly on revamping the first 4 chapters, I swear somehow it seemed like 10 times more effort than making them from scratch.

I will still be making the final chapter of the series so I can try and wrap up everything I started. So that's basically going to be 2 or 3 planned chapters crammed into one, it's probably going to be rushed and the story may go a bit off the rails but I really feel like I need to finish it now.

I appreciate the offer but since I'm no longer redoing the whole thing (or really care about it much anymore) I'll stick with the facemaker faces. I think the hair colour errors were more down to my colour blindness than the facemaker software.
Granted I never really liked the faces, I think in my next project I might forego them completely. With RPG Maker sprites I kind of get my own image in my head of what their faces look like and the face images work counter to that I find, kind of like reading a book and then you see a movie or TV adaptation of it.

I added some more info/videos to the games blog.
