BIZARREMONKEY'S PROFILE

I didn't think those games had a particularly big audience outside of Japan.

I could give less than a shit about the game, I have perverted artists~ I don't need it! :D

It's the concept as a whole that is ... not so much scary, as just plain annoying.

I actually should link this post I made on facebook because it sums up what I think of those seeking to be politically correct all the time perfectly.

They had a particularly big audience... in my pants. Hurr.

Happy Stuff-Yourself-To-The-Point-Of-Projectile-Vomiting Day, Everybody.

I'm thinking about the fact that there's no excuse for not having started to put my project into RPG Maker anymoree.

Procrastination is a powerful force.

I've been trapped in a vortex of self doubt since parting ways with Holmes vs. Moriarty. It was so easy, because I wasn't in the forefront spotlight. I hid behind my day job and refused to go to comic shows. To now go it alone and sell by myself? Yeek. Still scares me.

I think I've just become narcissistic enough to make self-doubt a thing of the past.

I couldn't actually say that's a good thing.

That said it sounds like you're in a full blown career and not just an enthusiastic hobbyist.

You're right, though. Only way to move forward is to take a step in that direction. Shuffling around in the shadows is only going to keep me there.

If there's anything being a developer for over 10 years has taught me, it's that the only thing anyone needs to be special, is the belief that they can be.

Nothing good comes easy, but the effort towards acquiring what is good makes it more than worth it. It's taken me a lot of work, sweat and bravery, but look where I am now. Sure i may not be a huge hit here, but I know my ideas are good, and when given decent exposure, it's clear a lot of people can see I put a lot of thought and effort into what I do as a developer.

I'm actually glad I'm hitting it big gradually rather than it coming all at once in a big flurry. once I start developing games in Unity and stuff it's hard to say what will happen. I'll be restarting my game dev course next year and taking full advantage of it this time.

Point is; Stay determined, stay hungry. Don't let the fears of public controversy wear you down, and keep those haters at bay. No matter what you make, no matter how good it is, someone will make it their goal to hate it, whether out of envy they didn't come up with it first, some inferiority complex or other various psychological reasons, you can't let those fellas wear you down. Instead, be bolstered by their hate, for instance. Whenever someone is hating on something I make or just things I make in general I tend to immediately think about why they might hate it. I fully understand things aren't for all people, but when a thing is met with hatred, there's more than a lack of passion at play, quite the opposite, there's passion in disliking it.

Typically this will be to do with things entirely unrelated to the game itself, or it will be things that most can look over while other will outright latch onto as a reason to hate a product.

Take my hatred of RMW's for example, the site itself functions fine, sure there's a couple functionality errors with quoting, but that's never stopped me on other sites, the reason I hate RMwebs is because I felt betrayed, and without even knowing what I'd done until much later that I'd been duplicitously banned from two websites I previously held no ill will towards.

I'm using a personal example because its not good business to name names.

So yes, mostly hate is entirely psychological, passionate dislike of a thing is typically because it defies something you believe in, be it sensibilities, justice, religion, etc.

Apathy is simply 'not really for me'. For instance, I have at least four good friends who are furries, in no way do I walk that path, but I don't let it get between another cool human being and my friendship. I have messed up fetishes, so who am I to judge others for theirs?

To quote Sated, there's infinite power in giving zero fucks.

Hey, Biz, remember that whole 'please don't overrun the screenshot thread with your game' thing we talked about a while back? Just because you reply to someone's post doesn't mean you have to show off another image. It's okay to just reply.

Haha! Yeah sorry. I was a bit nervy and wanted to be as topical as possible after my recent act of derailment, so it was a nervous thing!

I'll go back to one submission per page as is the standard.

@Pizza: That is really damn amazing. I wish i had the patience to do these sorts of things myself.

I much prefer the color in the first one.

@Tuomo_L: not bad, the eyes on that demoness look a little weird, though. I think they need to both be a bit closer to the center of her face, also the way the pupil on the left one is differently positioned to the right looks fairly odd.

Hahaha, oh the wretched RTP gets me again.

It's very likely I'm going to entirely retile the game. But doing _anything_ tile related takes at least 40 hours of procrasination so I'll get back to you on that when I stop being a lame horse.

Here's an easter egg area I updated just today.
