Whatchu Workin' On? Tell us!

I've been streaming RPG Maker 2003 development over on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/chrisriggs - I'm currently live now working on my game. I wanted to start doing this to see if there existed a dev streaming culture for RPG Maker, but it doesn't seem like Twitch has much of an RPG Maker community (horror games aside). Any tips to inspire interaction or engagement without being too spammy about it?


These modern sprites are rad, dude.
You've got my follow on Twitch. I'll tune in to see some editing.

I've been tinkering around with mapping for my project.
I've completely moved on from using the RM2K3 in-engine chipset builder and graduated to using panoramas, pictures, and charsets for mapping.

It's fully functional at this point, and now working on the inner areas.

Let me know what you guys think.
Are the pink "Action" indicators too much? I currently have it set to a variable that can switch them off and on.







Also, working on a radial menu. It's pretty bare atm.

Lighting is beautiful!

Some slow movement

Rad!
New sprites look and feel completely different (I really like them).
I know you'll put something incredible out.
Here I thought this project was long done for.
Can't wait to see more updates!

Wow, I can't get over how good this looks. Really makes me want to explore it.


Thanks much, my man! Hopefully I'll have the page back up, and a demo ready soon.

This looks way too professional, mate. Good god, can't wait to get my hands on this game.
Your sprinter/artist is sick.

@Giznads that looks epic! I can't even begin to imagine the amount of work it takes to make all those custom tiles. Did you make them all? I normally only use refmap cuz I'm not very good at editing my own.


Hey, thanks man. Much appreciated. I'd say about 30% of these graphics are pulled from other games, just heavily edited. The other 70% is royalty free stuff I either purchased of downloaded for free, but also, heavily edited to suit what I'm going for.
