POLARCACTUS'S PROFILE

The name just came to me for some weird reason, like a Purple Cow title. I mean, in RL I'm neither prickly nor icy xD.

And Gourd, it took me only so long to realise your name really is a play on a clay gourd lmao.
@Infection: Yeah... I know. But new year, new me, I guess? xD
@Sooz: Moi? Whacky? Nevaaaar. Maybe whimsical.

You need to best Blindmind and several others before you get that accolade yet. xD

I tend to use this rule of thumb a lot. Take the default map size of whatever engine you're using and try to make just that one area look visually interesting. Fill it up without clutter. Like Craze said, keep the eye moving. Then you can expand the map and move it around.

And never, ever start making a map in the editor that starts at 40x40, 50x50 or more, because I can guarantee you it's going to look horrible. Not to mention, the level designer would probably feel a bit stumped as to fill out all that blank space. ><

What's also amusing is that the game got next to no attention over at RMW, the official site, but was universally praised here.

Omg indeed. Someone still needs to make a battle system like that for RPGMaker, with programmable macros/combinations attacks and what not. :D
