ARCAN'S PROFILE

If you use it, why do you still use it?
- simple event system
- tons of resources
- larger audience
- nostalgic graphics

Have you ever thought about switching to a different maker?
Yup, I tried making a game in XP for a while.

If you have tried a later maker, what made you go back?
- Some of the functionality of the event system was removed.
- First person battle system didn't work for me.
- Less resources and custom graphics are harder to make

If you're an "excellent eventer," why not try your hand at scripting, which is similar (still entirely logic-based!) but immensely more flexible?
I feel like one of the biggest draws of 2k3 was the event system and that is what should have been expanded more in later versions. Scripting is fine, but I wouldn't want to learn some obscure language just so I can make a game. At that point I would just pick up a serious game making tool or write something in code I already know.

I don't really have much experience in drawing monster sprites, but I'm willing to try.

I can see various influences from Duck Tales and tiles as well.

Fuck, you live in New Zealand. Looks like I missed the deadline.

These headphones make a strange noise that sounds like the distant chirping or birds. For the longest time I kept thinking there were birds outside at 2 am.
