BOOS405'S PROFILE

Good luck! With this game, I like your art in this game from the screenshots, as it looks really good. Some, or many, of your maps, may be simplistic (probably, just guessing based on the review and a few screenshots) but the art is pretty good. (I know the review said that too, just adding some feedback to the fact I also like the art).

Maps don't look too bad to me overall, overall sort of average maybe? It's a mix for me on screenshots. But I think I agree it can have more detail or more to it to visually stand out, in some parts. Some look really good, like the tower.

Still good art and all.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it! I've finished Wonder Robot D at the moment, this new version was mostly a fix to an overlooked issues.

I agree that the maps are a bit simplistic in design. I was teaching myself both map design and pixel art while I made it. The Tower was one of the last things I did for the project, by that point I was getting better at pixel art.

I'm taking the feedback from Wonder Robot D into account while designing Reindeer Story. With better pixel art, a bit more action to the maps (since you can jump around and stuff) and more interactive gameplay.

From the screenshots, I wouldn't say they look bad though.

The layout and structure of most of the maps look good. And they do have a bit of detail.

I think though, they could do with a few more detail items that could be placed in some of them. So a few more custom art ideas. For example, flowers or other details. Then those could be placed in the different maps, where they sort of fit the theme of that map. In the right sort of positions as well, not too many, just some. (I know you have some flowers on some maps, I just mean a bit more variety of details on some of the maps and a bit more detail at times. So that example could be a different set of flowers).

That would probably be enough for the maps to change from a simplistic perspective a lot.

It's more that they just can be improved in some ways, as the starting ideas for the map structure and paths are okay. Some space for the character is nice to have and I think your spacing is pretty good.

I do see a lot of creativity in them as well, not just in the art direction but definitely in the art too.

Anyway, yeah, mapping for most people requires practice and learning the skill. I feel like it did for me long ago, and it definitely does for me at the moment.

Good luck with your next project! :)

That's great. Really good news! Happy to hear it's much better than before. Don't overload yourself though, but glad to hear you can do more game-making again! :)

Good to hear things are getting better! Best of luck with your RPG Maker endeavours and hopefully you are able to consistently work on your project, I still need to give that feedback on Chained Worlds I promised back in 2017 some day ^_^;

Hi Ozzy, nice to hear from you! Yes, thanks! I've actually had a huge break and focused on some other things, but I have just started getting back into RPG Maker again recently, so we'll see what I do next.

Are you using RPG Maker at all at the moment?

Haha, yeah, don't worry about that feedback. I got some helpful feedback in a private message around the time. I mean you can if you really want, but that's up to you!

Do you have a copy of the game though? I've lost mine, my copy can't be play-tested at the moment, as I added other scripts and stuff, so if you do, that'd be great. I don't need it, but I'd like it if I can.

Hope things go well for you, and good luck with where you take RPG Maker next, for you! :)

Hey there, I just want to let you know that the video is not loading for me. Since you provided a link to the channel, I checked, and I think I found the right video, it works on YouTube so perhaps something went wrong with the code?

I am using Chrome, saying in case it's just a problem on my end?

Very beautiful artwork! : ) So much good colour and personality with there clothes, hair and style!
