Update June 13/13

Alright. So plenty of little things have been going on. Got a new desk which I had to assemble, twice, cuz I misread the instructions. That killed a week.

Ryo's not gonna be as fast as I'd have hoped but I sure as hell ain't turning away any help.
He's getting better too so that's a positive.

Had another mapper with us on a trial bases. But it's not gonna work out. *shame too cuz she was really good* But she wasn't comfortable with the job, which is perfectly understandable and I can relate to quite a bit actually since my mind went blank the first time I considered drawing an H pic. XD. But anyways, wish her the best of luck. She said she does intend to finish the task given to her so that's a plus.

I've started advertising for the position, although not on offbeatre. I don't want to put myself in a position where I might actually get funded because I tend to blink on and off the internet for days at a time randomly.

On that note, anyone with mad PS skills looking to make a few bucks in there spare time, I pay $60 for a 30x30 tile map, $120 for a 60x60tile map, and $200 for a 100x100.tile map. I have all the resources you'll need and you don't have you worrying about the crazy coloring, shadowing. I can do that myself. Just need someone to lay the areas out. I pay half in advance, rest upon completion, and despite the nature of the game you won't be exposed to any inappropriate content.

As for personal progression. It's basically more of the same slowly but surely stuff I've been saying all long. I've been editing some of celianna and lunarea's steampunk tiles which are sure to come in handy for quite a while. This is actually a pretty good example of why I hide from funding. Her tiles are pretty popular so there's a decent chance someone could locate the game on offbeatre and report back to them, especially if the game becomes more popular. If that happens it'll be too late to say 'oh oh, I never really intended to get funding;.' It's on offbeatre! That's like the entire point of putting it there. Also I've been bouncing around doing a bit of character designing too.

I should be able to upgrade my cintiq by the end of this month as well and I'm not gonna lie, I'm giddy as a school girl about it. Last Of Us comes out tomorrow... *waves bye bye to the weekend*

  1. I'm not sure exactly how skilled I would need to be, but I've got a decent amount of photoshopping under my belt and no qualms about adult content. I wouldn't ask for half in advance on anything until I know I can handle the work, though. Send me an email at futuredark@gmail.com with the details on what exactly you're looking for and I'd be happy to try my hand.

  2. I'm glad your desk didn't cause you to get hurt or something. I sadly have no artistic skill to speak of, so I can't help with mapping or most of the other content.

  3. Curse you flat pack furniture for not being totally bleeding obvious in how you are to be assembled and forcing us to read the instructions(I've been there). Glad to hear your making progress and good luck finding a mapper, as someone who's dabbled with RPG maker I know mapping is not necessarily as easy as you first think.

  4. If we're just discussing putting tile-sets together, I can help you with that, no problem. Heck if you need a back grid array written afterwords, I'd toss that in as a freebie. Much like the guy above, I wouldn't expect the 50% up front until we confirmed my speed was sufficent for what you needed, but I don't see that as being an issue.
