PUNKITT'S PROFILE

What in particular made you folks want to go with RPGmaker 2k3 for your projects? I'm a long time user of it myself, so I'm always curious to hear why other devs choose to use a program made 17-18 years ago for their games!

Yeah, it's a continuation of the original program with a lot of new features added, such as the capacity for .lua programming which allows for a lot of fun level mechanics. Makes it TONS easier to create interesting stage gimmicks, and the new level editor is much easier to use. (In my opinion; I know there's a lot of folks who prefer the old one!)

Even if we don't end up doing another collab project, it's still a great continuation of the SMBX editor and I'd highly recommend it if you want to get back into making fun platformer levels.

Gosh, thanks so much Cap!!! <3 <3

Gosh, thanks so much Cashmere!! I always appreciate your support, it's been super motivating. :D

And yeah, it's really funny how that is! I haven't really met a ton of neurotypical creatives, funnily enough. Nearly all of the artists I know either already knew they were neurodivergent (like ADHD and the like) or found out they were this year. What a funky phenomenon! I wish I could tunnel in on hyperfocusing to finish my games, that would be SUCH a gamedev superpower, haha. Alas, I got too many ideas bonkin' around in my brain, so I'm glad I have some medication now to help me get my brain into high gear when I gotta get stuff done. XP

edit: ALSO also im glad you think I got a great radio voice too!! I had to rerecord so many times because I kept finding little areas since I have a tendency to speak too fast. I actually had a blanket over my desk and laptop the whole time while recording (for audio quality reasons) so it got real hot under there too, so I was trying to nail it all in a couple takes by the end. I think it was worth the effort!

Hope this is announcement is cool with everyone! It pertains pretty directly to Happup and me as a creator so I figured it would be fine to announce it here.
