Game Events Adventures: Episode 1 ~ DIG London 2011


E-mail Print PDF

I seem to have a lot of crazy adventures attending game conferences and anime conventions. So I decided to try and write about it in order to inspire/scare others to do the same by giving a taste of what it's like... at least with me anyways. I should write a book about it.

I'm heading to DIG London! This is in hopes to meet some publishers and pitch my game concepts to them.

Mindless details after the break.

 

So in order to save money and lose a bit of health and sanity I decided to take the 1 am bus to London and wait until opening outside. It was COLD!!! Well actually I'm waiting until the coffee shops open. This is currently where I'm writing this dev blog. First event starts at 9 am so I'm waiting until then.

This reminds me of going to a nightclub in Japan every Saturday blowing about $50 and going home on the first train.

Just did a little bit of investigation with the ren'py screen language and learned something new while drinking a bit of coffee.

Sakura River applies to be a dealer with the December Toronto Anime Convention. Will they get in or will something appear to stop them? Stay tuned for the next episode of Game Events Adventures!

Don't Save the World Update and Thoughts

Hello everyone. I am sad to say that this game is going to be delayed due to health issues I have been having. A demo will likely be done some time August. The release would be during the following year. So what does this mean? A high quality release, less stressful nights of impending deadlines.

However this project will still happen. I still feel like this game will fulfill a deep-seated need for gamers who like stories that want to make a difference in their games.

Reflections of 2012 and the Future

Hello everyone!

I understand that I haven't been updating this website lately. In terms of my personal life, it has been a real roller coaster ride. It really sapped a lot of my motivation. The unsuccessful fundraising didn't help either. However I still remain a fan of making things that people wouldn't think is possible happen.

After the break I'll make my quick reflection, say what AAA game had the most advanced interactive story design techniques, and talk about "Don't Save the World: An RPG!"

Making a Change in Production

After the kickstarter ended I took a look at how I was going to produce the world that the players were going to explore. At first it was going to be pretty expensive. Drawn backgrounds and maybe 3-5 for each area.

Sure... I could just make a crazy and amazing pure-text based back end. It would do everything that was claimed but just not feel good. I still needed artwork.

Then I started to play an RPG made by RPG Maker. Then I saw the obvious. "Nothing is more deceiving than the obvious truth."
