Three Treason Theories

I downloaded this before the update, but, here's a few thoughts:


It's interesting that the magic tutorial with Alamanda was the easiest to understand, but I fail to see how it's possible to win. Though, I never did quite unlock any of her "Unleash" techniques (yet managed to unlock the level-4 BOLK skill, and the enemy that was weak against BOLK before she fell victim to the attacks), so, I wasn't too sure what was up with that.

With Seiken Densetsu, his lines kinda started to blur together about the exact conditions under which the attacks would get stronger. Though, I can understand what you might be going for in respect to "Logarithmic" growth (Each "step" being X times more powerful than the last, but the amount of space between "steps" increases) and "Exponential" growth (where it's X^step), at least.

Pry/Chryst's tutorial kinda sounded like a bend-the-light-puzzle mechanic (I know what I'm talking about, but, I'm sure this isn't the phrase I'm looking for) that wasn't even about fighting dudes. I probably should have known better, though, as seeing the battle-options just caused a huge question mark over my head, realizing I had no clue what I was supposed to be doing for this fight.

However, I totally appreciate Alamanda's fourth-wall breaking banter and the references Seiken makes!

Tales of Astrenia - Multi Game Series !!

Developing a game series is tough! All I can really say is good luck.

Oh, variables... What would I do without you?

Okay, class, now try storing unknown-width text using nothing but flags/switches.

Hint: It's ten times easier with variables.

I want her to become... scarier.


Getting the right eyes is half the battle of a given expression. The other half is getting the right mouth.

Oh god, it's as scary as the wasp-waist girl from way back.


...and that's pretty much the reason why I linked it, rather than just copy-paste the URL between image tags.

Chance Encounter Review

There are, like, a bunch of stories in my head regarding this world. I may have attempted to write this as if it were a cannon story in that world, kinda like a fanfic/fangame, but, uh, that only really works if the world, and it's characters, have been firmly established.

Well, at least I got an "upgraded" duel system out of this.

That eye-edit you're looking for might be a bit difficult for me. I guess I'll fool around in GIMP for a spell, though.

I finish half of the main story, but it become longer and longer. Don't know why.

I almost want to suggest not being too ambitious with your first gam mak project Heartache character. Give us a taste of your capabilities with your first character, though. Based on the feedback you get, work on the areas that you need practice in for the next character. And so on until you realize that you've become the go-to author for custom content. Or until you feel ready to stop. Whichever comes first.

*Edit: Well, here's a supremely hack attempt at taking the eyes that you posted, and editing them to fit with the base tachie. I totally don't expect this to pass inspection.

Fundamental RPGology

By the way Marrend, are we allowed to use your duel script for our own games?


Short Answer: Yes.

Long-but-not-that-much-longer Answer: Look under the "Other Notes" section of this page.

[Scripting] Script Looping and Number input

It won't even show up? Damn! Well, the best advise I can give at this juncture is to look up the Input Number event command functionality in Game_Interpreter and see if you can't emulate what it's doing.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

[Scripting] Script Looping and Number input

Hrm. Well, it kinda sounds like you could go...

until $game_variables[31] < target_value
  $game_message.num_input_variable_id = 31
  $game_message.num_input_digits_max = 2
end


...for the effect you want. Though, I'm not 100% sure of this.

Darigaaz, I recall when I used Akari's tachie for Masako during her very first incarnation. Yet, somehow, I went from that to this.

It's pretty staggering what people can do.
