SGT M'S PROFILE

All 90 hours of Everlong with all original assets. Let's do it.

And yeah, having done this myself twice now (Soma Spirits, and recently Brave Hero Yuusha) it's definitely something you have to carefully assess and ensure that your new version has enough substantial upgrades to be worth a purchase. Like you can't just add one new character and slap a price tag on it, or people are going to think you're just looking for a quick cash grab and then go download the old one.

If money is your goal, then get a second job, or a side job if you're in school. Keep your passion as a passion.

I'm also going to super, super emphasize the quote above because it's very unlikely that selling games is going to be your ride, and the percentage of indie developers who can sustain themselves on games alone is easily in the single digits. Soma and Yuusha were a nice bit of extra pocket money, but it's not something I'd ever quit my full time job for.

Neither of my games were one of the big RPG Maker darlings to begin with. I really just did it as a personal goal.

Thanks, all! I hope Yuusha gets a great second chance.

Hope you all enjoy the game!

BUT is it okay to use sample maps if you're doing so because you're a veteran who doesn't like mapping (or is just plain burnt out on it) and prefer to focus on all the other aspects of your game, or is it never acceptable and will prevent your game from being taken seriously/played at all?

I don't see the harm in using sample maps for stuff like internal testing, super small-scale projects, or if you're building something within the project file where exploration isn't really a key element. But if you're a veteran who has made something on a grander scale and then you're trying to bill Eric_On_Sample_Town1.exe as your frontrunner project then yeah, people are going to say something.

If that bot is named funnyjokes then boy there had better be some funnyjokes in the pipeline
