Prayer of the Faithless is Released

Congrats! Look forward to finally playing more than the intros!

If you figure out how to rest after this, pls tell me how. im still ded

Tomorrow, I'm going on a 10 hour hating challenge! 10 hours of NON STOP hating everyone! Wish me luck!

i dont believe in you kentona

you have always been a failure at hating people

you have let me down time after time, being a kind and generous person

and now you expect me to trust you will deliver on this said hate?

and this is where i take my leave, as i fear you will be kind in response

Release date: May 27th

YES, IT'S TIME

Indie game pricing will forever piss me off. Seriously. Remnants deserved $10. This deserves more. Yet I think $10 is about as perfect as you can ask for in this market, sadly. People are unfair and harsh about the pricing of games like ours.

One thing I recommend (if you haven't yet), its getting your steam build up and running asap and testing achievements and whatnot (if you wish to have them). You can do that long before you release.

Good luck with this, seriously. Release is by far and wide the worst part of dev. Just rip the band-aid off and get through it. From my experience, you feel worse before you feel better, but it's still a massive achievement.

AND if you rmn youngins don't know, Nova is a crucial part of this community and deserves your attention.

Oi, dying is MY gimmick! You can't have it!

Seriously, though. Congrats on the release!


I would never EVER copy you.

Just ignore the fact I used FREE TURN BATTLE style this time.

CONGRATULATIONS ON FINISHING YOUR GRIND

Grats on release! ( ゚∀゚)ノシ


Thank you!

Kind of a shame that the IRC channel no longer exists. I've never made a Discord account and I never will.

im more angry there are people being jerks to unity on rmn discord than discord spying on me

hey i know you from twitter

If I did stats again would you donate? (donation drive)

I just donated a WHOPPING $10. So I now have all mod and admin powers to destroy my foes.

In all reality, this site has done a lot for me. Hope this little bit helps.

I finally went around to finishing this. I thought I was semi close, but turns out I was only HALFWAY when I stopped.

I will write a review sometime in future, but I just wanted to drop a quick comment.

Game was VERY good. The storytelling was more mature this time around. Not in a grim dark way or anything, but in a patient and well thought out way. (not that the prior works were immature or anything) I loved the themes of it and kicked myself for not figuring out a lot of the twists before they happened. Great work, Extremely deserving of the misao(s).

I mean, I like getting nailed too, though winter's not my favorite.

You should probably try not getting sick!!!! Hopefully you've built up like universal immunities or something


I thought that each time. And we kept just getting hit. ):

Covid was first. Got that from a fluke. Then my wife got a bad cold from her retail job. Then MY job, which is working at a group home, gave us a nasty 24 hour stomach bug.

I am doing quite poorly, all things considered. :(

Hiding depressing stuff in case other people don't have the spoons for it:

Dad died 3 weeks ago of a random heart attack (and he was in pretty good shape too, so it was a terrible shock to the family), and just as some therapeutic RPGmakering was pulling me towards the light at the end of the tunnel of grief, and helping me find motivation to get up and actually DO things again...

The world was like "You know what you need? Existential dread and terror that you can do nothing about". Which is a doozy of a thing to deal with at the best of times, let alone while you're still processing grief.

If I did not absolutely love my day job, I would not be doing it. I would be curled up in my bed playing JRPGs and binge-watching winnie-the-pooh.

Like...After hearing how my dad died, I started trying to improve my diet and exercise more. But it's VERY hard for me to care about that right now. -_- So I'm stuffing my face with pasta and cookies and chamomile tea and hoping for the best tonight.

I'm going to keep on carrying on with my life and all that, but yeesh. Screw 2022 and the horse it rode in on. It seems like it's hell bent on screwing up everyone's lives, if the handful of posts of people having a rough time are any indication. :(

Sidebar: I'm serious that RPGmaker helped pull me out of the depression a little. Designing fun boss fights and seeing all those puzzle pieces come together to form a fun and engaging encounter lights up my brain and makes me smile.


Dude, I swear a similar thing happened to me a couple years ago. Though my dad had a 2 year swift decline. :(

Very sorry for your loss.

My recent game was literally one big way of coping with the loss of my dad. It was a curse and a blessing. I actually put some of my traumas I had from it all into it, as a way of coping. It weirdly helped me.

I would definitely recommend trying to keep yourself in shape nonetheless. There is a lot in life you cannot control, but doing small stuff like having some limitations on diet and some exercise every day is something you can control. (just a little is enough in my opinion, not everyone has to be a health nut)
