aren't you tired of being nice? don't you just want to go apeshit?

there's words for people who use AI instead of hiring artists and I'm not allowed to use them here, but i hope they know i'll see them in the northern territory

I'll be going live in an (unarchived) stream as it hits midnight on the 11/2/2024 (FF8's 25th anniversary for the JP release) to discuss the original game, my own game, potential remake rumours, and whatever else comes up, as well as get some work done on an upcoming demo (!!)

Waiting room:

Love the work on the background, very nicely done.

I'll probably make custom beds. All the ones I have I'm not satisfied with...they're all in an awkward spot regarding the sprite size (either too big or too small), and lack the detail VIII's beds have.

Main updates for this are the back wall, which I entirely remade. I did it fast on the first version, and it just...wasn't good enough.

Bullet holes notwithstanding, I like the sense of space with the map on the right. Much more roomier than the cramped space that's on the left.


This is precisely the angle I've taken with the map updates-- I want the player to be able to move in the space and conceptualize other people also being able to move in said spaces. A lot of the originals are really tiny with only 4-5 walkable tiles.

Old vs. new tileset? Looks like they patched up the bullet holes in the wall while they were remodeling.


Reality is far more boring. I just haven't done a painted/lighting pass yet. can't forget the immaculately preserved crime scene.

Yeah, if you're gonna put down new floorboards, carpet on the stairs, and new brick facing on the chimney, you've GOT to put up new plasterboard where the gunshots were. That floor looks really nice. The old brick on the chimney is nicer, though. Just saying.


I kinda agree, though I think the first fails to actually show what's happening there. While we can agree its a chimney, I didn't provide enough space between the wall and where it ends to infer the chimney is facing right out into the room, and instead it looks bricked up. The new brickwork is consistent with the source material and has a nice border on it, which will help with the upstairs room.

I've got a few more details to add. Mainly some coal on the floor by it and fire pokers, along with any shadow details.

Hey, this looks great, but as a general FYI - there is no shame in WIPs. You don't need to put a 'don't judge me' on your screenshots - be proud of your hard work. Every pixel laid is a pixel toward a completed project. You've got a very interesting looking project on your hands, endeavor to be passionate about it regardless of other's judgement.

You've seen this before, but it's been slightly altered -- pants are now dark grey/black instead of blue (and feature additional details), with the addition of gloves and the reinstating of his necklace chain at his waist. His shoes are also his Final Fantasy VIII ones -- he's had them resoled in the time since, but that's all.

More or less, I wanted to convey that he's kept certain familiar items, and though he's deliberately chosen clothes that are """less him""", like Seifer he's fallen into familiar habits -- accessories, black colours, and signature iconograpy.

I'm not sure if I've ever actually said this directly, but the reason this particular outfit was chosen was to call to mind his childhood appearance, of an orange shirt and blue jeans. In Squall's case, he's just drawn to orange.

I think you might want to shift the shadow of the crane cargo a bit lower, as the water itself is 2 tiles below it. Probably just above where the water meets the wall.

Otherwise looking very good.

oh - actually you might want to shift click the edge of the paths leading to the stairs, but this is more of a personal choice than an actual mapping error.

He's certainly a man who believes in his own myth.
