I'm going along with Mandle's line of thought... Postal?

If you think it is strong enough then release...

No, not really...
It would be like simply putting some lettuce on a bun and calling it a burger.

Hmm. Looks like I still may have time. Do I release a version of the game that's playable, but lacks all subtlety? Or do I just wait and release it at a later point when I can include everything I wanted?

Hmm. Yeah, if the deadline was nudged just a bit I could probably have something finished, since it's only 5 pm for me...

Okay, I was wrong...
I have too many loose ends to be able to make something playable within an hour and a half.

Congratulations to those who did meet the deadline.

Good luck VampireWombat! I'm sure that whatever you manage to get completed within the deadline will still be lots of fun! I look forward to playing it!

Thanks, but don't get your hopes up too much.
Pretty much any subtlety I had planned is being thrown out. And most of the "puzzles" are pretty mundane. But it's my fault for procrastinating...

3-framed walkcycle... I thought my 4-framed walkcycle held the record 

Maybe the rooms are bareboned because the bailiff has been in 

You can do it....

3 frames for each direction is kind of standard with RPG Maker.

Alas, that's kind of lost on me. I had to use Wikipedia since the only bailiffs I'm familiar with are in court rooms.

Yes. I will certainly do it. The only question is what "it" will turn out to be. lol

A little under 11 hours. I will definitely have something finished, but still can't be sure what.
Probably most backgrounds will be very barebones and there's a good chance the left/right walkcycle will be limited to 3 frames.

Maybe...
I have another project that I'm starting work on on Tuesday. Also have to see how well my current MAGS game goes.

Shame about the issues.

But yes, VampireWombat should be able to pull something out of some kind of bag. The day of the deadline, we will see if it should have stayed in the bag or not.

Great, now I'm thinking of the Days of Our Lives soap opera that my grandma watched when I was a kid...

I don't have as much done as I'd like, but I do have actual puzzles figured out. The next few days I will make mock ups of the rooms and do programming. If I have time, I will add more rooms and more detail to the rooms.

Ha. Like I've ever had a game finished early enough for testing and tweaking...

I have a lot of things figured out now. Programming will probably start this weekend. The number of backgrounds will depend on how fast I work and other things.

I have enough of an idea to make a game. But I need some spark of inspiration to be able to make a decent game.

Edit: And now I have enough of an idea to make it decent. Now to figure out specific details.

I did a test for an effect and just finished an animation. But otherwise I still only have a very vague idea of what I'm doing...

Two days of snow plus time away from working on any game stuff has given me a general idea of where most of the game will take place and how the climate issue will be fixed. Now to figure out everything else...

My game is... Going so so, I guess. I'm still in the character sprite style stage. I've moved away from the top down idea. I might even have the first character created this weekend.

Does anyone know good links with existing art work and sprites I could use for the game (characters, items, background)?

Both Itch.io and Open Game Art have a decent amount of stuff you can use. It's just a matter of finding stuff that fits your game.

I only saw the first episode of Picard. Despite any negatives, I still thought it was better than any episode of Enterprise I've seen. Or most season 1 episodes of TNG...

Hmm. Fairytale does give me an idea.
I could go a route closer to the Shannara Chronicles than standard post apocalyptic stuff.
A top-down post apocalyptic fantasy with a bit of some kind of punk thrown in it is.

Hmm. Maybe. I'll see if I can think of a good idea that can use re-existing assets to some degree...
