IGMC: Daily goals/progress thread

Thats exactly how I feel too. I have loads of little bits of random systems doing nothing just waiting for that one final piece of the puzzle :)

I wish I HAD 13 hours a day to work on my game!  I try and get 10-12 in on the weekends, but I've got a regular day job I have to keep up.  I like to eat, and that whisky I'm drinking?  Yeah, $70 for a fifth.  12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch.  God's gift to man!

Here's to hoping that while I'm still out of school I can dedicate more time to game development.  I honestly and truthfully want this to be my full time gig, it's just right now, bills, bills, BILLS!

Still, this is fast becoming a thing of things.  I've added in even MORE events, polished it a bit more, and have refined things.  Tomorrow, it's eventing out the final NPCs, and the cutscenes.  Then I'm done.  

But now, I'm going to bed.  Going to bed and going to sleep HARD.

Have to be at work at 7:30 in the morning.  Probably won't get off before 3:30-4:00, maybe even later.

Welp, time for a cutscene! A turning point cutscene! If you did one thing, the guard that takes you down to the dungeon (WHERHER OR NOT YOU GET CAUGHT BY A GUARD DURING THE GAME) will say and do something ELSE than if you didn't do that thing...

I envy you guys, you're all very productive!

I got a lot of coding to do! While I'm not done with my NON-RPG entry for IGMC 2014 yet, I'm really excited to dig into my RPG entry more, because it's gonna be easier/quicker and actually "fun" to develop. I still hate Ruby though.

And I almost forgot, I gotta write [both]my game's music! :o I'll be fussed if I let some indie guy do it, but I can't afford an actual composer/performer. I like to write pieces though, because there's so many ways to do it. You can write "groove-up" or "chords down" if you want. But I prefer lyrics first, as it makes the rest of the piece easier. And if you wanna write and mix 10 tracks in 6 days, you need all the help you can get! :)

Today I discovered a new found love for tossing characters into walls. Luckily, there will be more opportunities to come as I try to blitz the rest of the major eventing in the next two to three days. Three more scenes and a small script done today. Something like six more scenes + the ending + optional stuff to go.

I'm going to try to finish up the entire 2nd floor of the Hospital in my game today. This also includes roughly ten to twelve rooms and a few minor and major cut scenes, so yeah, I'm nuts.

I'm putting together a blog for Densetsu no Kusoge on tumblr, but I don't know if it's worth it.

I definitely have plans on making a walkthrough, though, since it seems no one can make it past the first three minutes of the game. :p

Today I finished up the trading system completely, worked on balance and new items/gear, as well as added a new indoors map. Polished up some existing areas and dialogues, added a fancy splash animation, and finally migrated my work over to my new desktop pc. Much productive!

I'll post it when I finish coloring him, but this pirate battler I just drew looks like he came right out of Courage the Cowardly Dog.

I'm currently working on more events and re-working the Castle Crawl. For whatever reason it sounds INFINITELY better with the pitch *slightly* lower and with less reverb...

Seven rooms and minor events down, four more to go, including major events. Chugging along at a good pace.

It's not my best line work but here is the "Vitamin A Deficient Pirate." He ate his oranges but not his carrots! Stupid dog!

You're right, he does indeed look

Game should hit beta at around 10:30PM tonight.  Not much left on it now, just a few more events, and then the cut scenes.

I'm pleased.

Pleased as Punch, really.

I'm also very, VERY tired.

Defo a courage the dog style image. Really good job on this *pats on back* :)

Finished a mini dungeon.  Avoid the killer guards and help out three souls. The three souls give you three keys. You need those three keys in order to advance.

Took me all night.  I'm wiped. I'll polish it up tomorrow.

Payce.

Well, I'm hopefully finishing my scenes, placing my NPCs, and doing the ambient conversations. I have one more battler left and I'm doing the title screen today. 

C'mon guys. We can do it! 

Finally managed to put together a descent demo about our contest entry.

gonna listen to that tune for the rest of the week now :D
Already on my third listen lol

Or maybe I will get some other rocky training scene style tunes :D

I've been looping it all day. Get on my level. :p
