I CAN'T NOT MAKE GAMES.

I have enough lockerspace to hold an episode of Friends.

"We'll make a toast to absent friends and better days,
To remembering and being remembered as brave
And not as a bunch of whining jerks!

Don't lose your nerve.
Do not go straight
You must testify
(or I'm going to come to your house and punch you in the mouth)
cause CLOWNS MUST STAND."

- TW/IFS, "All The World Is A Stage Dive"
Iron Gaia
As the only human awake on board a space station controlled by an insane AI with delusions of deification, you must unravel the mystery of your own identity and discover: "What is the Iron Gaia?"

Lacking motivation?

author=Zachary_Braun
Delusion is a really powerful motivator. Spend more time offline and let the delusion of grandeur take over.

Spending too much time online turns people into their own oppressors.


This seems like good advice I'm gonna try to work on this.

I LOVE the part in bold. Your own, or a quote from someone?

Can we talk about the Mike Brown/Eric Garner/etc situation?

Quite frankly I am sick of you, Max, and others pulling out the SJW tag to slap on anyone you don't agree with--


There are quite a few people I disagree that AREN'T in fact SJWs. Actually, almost ALL of the people I disagree with aren't SJWs. Just for one example from this thread: harmonic is not an SJW. He's just a Republican "Libertarian". (harmonic: I am teasing).

as though it's an insult.


AS THOUGH it's an insult? Seriously? Social Justice Warriors are practically by definition abhorrent self righteous douchenozzles. Please do understand that I am not remotely interested in expanding the label of "Social Justice Warrior" to include anyone who cares about racism, intolerance, and injustice. If that was it's definition, then I would be a Social Justice Warrior.

But SJW has a very specific definition. A member of the PC police out to avenge thoughtcrimes on the internet with screaming outrage. I agree that SJW is a shitty thing to label any reasonable person i.e. anyone who is not an SJW, but sometimes it is entirely necessary to call a spade a spade.

For obvious reasons I am not going to like...spell out who here is and is not a SJW (if you're reading this and you have any doubt about it at all, then I almost certainly don't consider you one)...but I think you get what I mean nonetheless.

You know, I admit that it was incorrect, even unfair, of me to infer that suzy_cheesedreams was an SJW based on her position. But I was at the moment very frustrated to see the position I was being conflated with the position harmonic was taking when they were, from my perspective, very far apart. But in any case certainly it was not more inflammatory than calling her a "jerk".

tl;dr I will certainly not label anyone/everyone I disagree with an SJW, but when someone says something as inflammatory and belligerently wrong as "racism against white people literally doesn't even exist" (a conversation we are now thankfully done with, everyone having agreed that it does in fact exist) that person is clearly an SJW and should be called out as such.

Next time I see anyone use that tag aimed at someone there will be warnings. Seriously.

You lot keep using it as an insult so I am now going to take calling someone a SJW as a personal insult and reacting as such.

You have all been warned.

Cut that shit out.


I'm honestly not looking to poke the bear here, but to be frank, I don't feel like this kind of heavy handed threat is appropriate or correct and please don't take this the wrong way but honestly I believe you are better than this kind of stuff. I am positive that RMN is better than this kind of stuff. RMN is not one of those internet shithole echo chambers where there is a "right" and a "wrong" opinion and I'd hate to see it become one.

With that said I certainly don't foresee a problem in this thread going forward. I don't think there is all that much to disagree about here. Police brutality is horrifying. The racial dimension of it is horrifying. The virtually universal lack of indictments or any real consequences for the officers involved is horrifying. To all of us, I'm sure.

Can we talk about the Mike Brown/Eric Garner/etc situation?

Right yes, should have added 'also for fun and profit'.

oops, my bad

Can we talk about the Mike Brown/Eric Garner/etc situation?

author=Link_2112
Thanks Feld. Great topic :/

I think the discussion here has been mostly productive if not always totally chummy. And I think there's actually like a pretty clear consensus that police brutality is bad and often racially motivated. I'd love to see Feld weigh in though as it is his topic.

thanks, that's awesome.

EXCEPT it's throwing a TypeError (can't convert nil into integer) on Line97. Fuck. Welp, I'll have to make another thread for that. in the meantime i'll just tuck it away *under* Main for now.

4k isn't very much money, and I still stand by that you really don't NEED money to make a game.

At least not a LOT of money. I bought like all of the graphics I am using in my current project for well under $100 dollars. And that's awesome.

This looks REALLY cool.

E: I am enjoying this game a lot so far--the beginning is really hard, and can be quite frustrating; I imagine once my character has more abilities it will get easier, but I am generally of the opinion that games should get harder as they go along--but in any case, I ran into a slightly annoying design decision.

Why would you remove the 'Quit' option from your main menu? This means I have to hard exit the program with Alt + F4 and then reload the program to load a saved game rather than just quit to the title menu and then hit load. I know that the 'quit game' option is there by default in VX Ace, so why'd you disable it?

Edit 2: Not gonna lie, this annoyed me so much I cracked open your project in VX Ace, went into your scripts, and uncommented out the :game_end command from the COMMANDS array in YEA_Menu_System. Thanks for at least leaving your project unlocked; made me glad I know how to use RPG Maker, lol. I wish fixing things that annoyed me in the games I played was always this easy.

Edit 3: Did you seriously just suggest Ravens are allied with hell? As a bird lover I am outraged.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...buuut...

Sorry for bringing up this old thread, but I'd thought I'd make this clear to those who've messaged me about recording the game, advertising, etc.

Yes, you have my permission, just don't forget to give me credit. :)


ok that's it guys let's find this bitch and burn him alive
