VERINCIA'S PROFILE

Looking around and seeing people talk about maps, there's something that people call open space. There's too much open space here and there, or there's too this or that. How is the maker suppose to know what is considered too much open space. Even if the maker is able to reduce the space, there are times when they can't either because of map effect, or trying to edit a map already made, and the map can't be altered any more. Do we even care about open spaces? There are a number of commercial games that have too much open space. Why should it matter here? And if it does, how might one improve it, without sacrificing the work that they already put into a game? Food for though anyone.

For me it would be about the story. If the story isn't right then I have a lower chance of playing it, but features are important. I am still only into my second game, and I am now getting to the point where I am comfortable enough with the mechanics of Maker XP that I am willing to move beyond the template provided. Although it's a small thing for me, my next game, I will be changing how the battles work. It's actually only a small thing at best, but for someone who is only working on game two and going on to game three that change in the game features is actually a very big thing for me.

To anyone who cares, after being encouraged by various people to change the name of my game I did, but other than it's name, it's still the same game. I have not yet made any changes to the name and what not in the actual game itself. I will be doing that at a later date. Or maybe not. Either way, a decent update with fewer bugs has been added. I know for a fact that Jay and Sara's story work.

Hey, it has come to my attention, that the name of my game should be changed. I titled my game "King's Quest." Knowing now, that I did not know when I named it, there is an old series of games that go by the same name. Someone spoke to me that I should consider changing the name of the game because of the name, "King's Quest" there was a possibility that the makers would find out about my game's title, and cause problems later, even though it's completely home made. He recommended that I change the name of my game, and maybe even add a disclaimer about my game, which is nothing like the commercial video game. Any thoughts?

I'm not sure how, but I can try. What's the problem....besides the need for the RTP file?
