SNOWOWL'S PROFILE

Everyone's doing it, and I don't want to be left out ;_;
Have some of my favourites, and some unused stuff from my games.

Miscellaneous

So I've been trying to find the source of these weird freezes that happen quite frequently in my game Reap and Sow.
And as you might guess by me posting here, I can't find it. The problem is prominent in pretty much every map of the game, and happen at what seems to be random intervals for a short amount of time (0.5 sec, ca). It's not just me that has the problem, I've got it reported from several people and only in this game.

I'm using a number of scripts:
MOG - Madoka Title Screen
HIDE SHOP ITEM CATEGORIES by Seiryuki
SELL-ONLY SHOP SCRIPT by Enelvon
CATEGORIZE ITEM SCENE by Seiryuki
YIA Simple Menu By YesImAaron
Large Choices by Tsukihime
Choice Options by Tsukihime
N.A.S.T.Y. Text Pop Over Events by Nelderson
Fix Picture to Map by modern algebra
Basic Window Resizer v1.1 by V.M of D.T

I've edited some of them slightly, but I doubt that is the reason since I've only made minor changes. There are also a couple of other small scripts I made myself which I dougbt is the reason, since I've used them in other games without problems.
I suspect the reason might be the number of events I have in the game, which is massive. I really hope that that is not the reason, since I can't reduce it much (I've already done this a number of times to try to combat the problem) and I'm currently at a standstill as to what to do.

If it's indeed the number of events, I fear I might have to abandon the project, but I really hope someone can help me find the definite source of the problem. I also realize this is a bit of a time consumer when it comes to help requests but I really don't know what else to do, I've tried a number of things, but I need someone better than me to help out at this point or I will have to abandon the project, seeing as the game is really annoying to play with these freezes. So, yeah. Help, please?

So since I had a lot of fun with the RMN Christmas Pixel Quilt, and since there was some interest for more, I decided to make another unofficial Pixel Quilt.
since Arandomgamemaker said it so well, I will be borrowing his rules:

author=Arandomgamemaker
PIXEL QUILT RULES

author=Ocean
Rules are simple. Add onto the picture 'quilt' by pixelling on one of the panels. If we run out of room, just expand the canvas size! Just make sure it fits the quilt dimensions.

• You can choose any square that you want, as long as it is not taken by another person.

• Try to make the borders of your square match the borders of the squares surrounding them.

• Put whatever you want in your square! Just keep it appropriate.

Note- It's for fun, so feel free to try it out even if you don't think you are a good at pixel art!


There is no real deadline.

And there you have it!

Here's the current quilt:

So I have started working on my next game, which is going to somewhat different from earlier ones. No horror or scary stuff. Somehwat realistic too, although as it is me making the game, there will probably be some weird stuff here and there.
For people unfamiliar with my games, I've had most success on this site with these games:
Miserere
Skinwalker

Anyway the reason I am posting this is because I’ve been having some trouble lately. The problem is the music. While I am able to make decent music myself, the amount of time I have to spend on this is just such a large chunk compared to other stuff. In short, I’m just not a very effiecient music composer.

So here’s the reason I’m posting: I need someone to help me with music. Obviously you’ll be credited and will have my eternal gratitude. I can’t really pay anything, seeing as I make no money from these games myself and I'm poor as a church rat.

Either way, the type of music is going to be somehwat calm, serene music mostly. Think typical game village music. Also, I’m not asking for a professional composer here, but I probably will have to say no to total amateurs too (meaning, someone who never ever made any music before).
Here is a example of what I am looking for:
Short tune

So again, here is what I am looking for: Someone that can compose original 30~ second tunes, mostly chill music.

Adventure games have been declared dead by critics far and near,
but as far as we're concerned, they're alive and well in our hearts.
So being a adventure game maker myself, I was wondering:
What makes a good adventure game?

I enjoy games in which the pace is slow and the reward is for thinking and figuring,
rather than quick reflexes.
Story and atmosphere also plays a big part for me.

To avoid confusion, the definition of an adventure game is: "An adventure game is a type of video game characterized by investigation, exploration, puzzle-solving, interaction with game characters, and a focus on narrative rather than reflex-based challenges."
