SIXFOOTBLUE'S PROFILE

Hi, I'm Blue. I like pixel art, drawing, voice acting, and messing with game design, despite knowing very little about coding. Maybe someday I'll release something.

Hope we get along!

Number of Characters?

I guess it really depends on the genre. AS already mentioned, strategical games like Fire Emblem use a fairly large number of characters at once, not to mention if they die, you can't get them back, so a large character base seems to be a necessity.

If you're dealing with a turn based RPG with a party of 4 or a combat game where only one character is active at a time, I think it best to really cut down the numbers. (For me, a good max is 10)

I've never been good with games you have to use and manage a large amount of characters. (Nocturne x_x) Even in persona 3, I ended up just sticking with the same party of four throughout the game, because I never bothered training the rest of them until it was too late.

Love in games

Same-sex relationships may add an interesting appeal to storylines in games, and in fact it's already been done in games like Mass Effect 3 or .hack//GU Reminisce (Homosexual relationship and a transvestite/possibly transgender character. Also, in Persona 4, there was a whole episode that dealt with one character questioning his sexuality.

It's not always so obvious, but it's there. I think the reluctance to include it sometimes is due to the possible reactions from consumers that could come from it.

I, for one, welcome it. Of course it doesn't have to appear every single time, nor does it have to be a requirement, but at the same time, it could add a touch of realism and diversity to a project.

What music gets you going/pumped up?









I listen to at least one of these on a daily basis :3

Futuristic chipsets for rm2k3

I'm trying to find some futuristic chipsets/tilesets for rm2k3 that have a sort of "clean" feel to them...if that makes sense. Like, no gritty walls or textures or anything. Hopefully chipsets that fit in with Treasure of the Rudras chipsets and possibly Mac&blue chipsets.

I basically want to take pieces from them and scrap together chipsets. Does anyone know of any in particular? Or any other sources where I may find them?

25 Things I Want To Say To "Aspiring" Game Developers

#18 killed me. I seriously almost fell out of my seat.

Make Tutorial plz

It`s even more stupid when someone makes a cbs for 2k3 and demands a script. Goddamn script kiddies, learn to distinguish 2k3 from xp or vx. And no events for you.


Well hey, copy+pasting IS a hell of a lot more desirable. Less effort.

The black and white is killing my eyes. Maybe you could try mixing in some grey or something?

Make Tutorial plz

Yeah, it really is unfortunate. Usually, I try to gain some familiarity with a program on my own, and usually after I would find instructions or tutorials on my own and work my way up. It's common sense. People seem to expect that they can just be given the information, expect to do little to no work, and become a prodigy. It's really irritating.

Make Tutorial plz

"Make tutorial plz"

It really bugs me when I see a message of the sort pop up on a screenshot or topic or youtube video of...nearly anything really, games inclusive.

As an example, I came across a youtube video showing off some different systems and artwork in an rm2k3 game. Somewhere near the top, I see a comment that goes along the lines of "omg amazing, plz make a tutorial!"

Now normally, if the person was seriously asking for instruction, and actually followed up on the commenter's/OP's recommendations, and actually took some initiative, then there isn't really a problem. What bugs me is when someone asks for tutorials and basically expect to be spoon fed everything, and that's only IF they ever show up on the page again. I see comments asking for tutorials, and the commenter posts once, then never returns. I've seen others just not bother with it when the OP recommends finding the different instructional pages through a search engine or even if the tutorial isn't in a video format, and they actually have to read through a document.

It could just be me, but to be honest, I don't understand the lack of motivation to actually LOOK for information and tutorials yourself. You have search engines and the world wide web at your disposal, and despite the abundance of information, you don't bother using any of it and just ask someone else to get it for you.

Perhaps I'm being a bit oversensitive. What are your opinions on the topic?
