Well clearly i don't appreciate my time enough, with me being here, writing this, but the same goes for you reading this waste of time, aren't we quite the unoccupied fellows? Procrastination sure is something....

Yeah, I ain't good with puzzles, hmm... a guess a turn base.

You know pokemon mystery dungeon is a turn base dungeon crawling game, without puzzles, and randomly generated factors, like the maps, stats, etc, a typical rouge-like, maybe that's close to what you would describe.

Of course the random generator is the novel, and the hard part of rougue-likes.

Rogue likes are adicting though, but that does sound like something I'd love to do.

Now you just need a good programmer, or learn to program.

I am sure that in the NG forums you will find people interested on it, so you just need to develop the rest which is, art, story, gameplay that will differentiate the game from other games, a gimmick so to speak.

For example Fez, could have been just your typical puzzle plataformer, but it added the aspect of being able to change perspectives and make the rendering of the game in 3D meaningful, however that's just what makes the game different, Fez is a great game even without the gimmick because just from the world design, and the hidden story the thing captivates, well doing those things is your work.

I've wanted to play Fez, though I heard the guy who made it kinda told everyone to fuck off, but meh, it did look like a cool game. But I'd love to do artwork, and I'm gonna take an online course on programming when I can. But I should focus on drawing, and getting a scanner first, and a new laptop
-_-

He did, and then some more, in short the guy is crazy in a bad way, he has anger issues, is really paranoid, and betrayed his fellow indie developers by voting against them in a games award thing.

But his flaws as a person aside, the game Fez is really, really good.

Yeah develop a world, draw it, make it interesting even just to look at, and then imagine, what would be something awesome that you could do in this world? that makes it unique to this world? and could the player interact with it? for that you don't need to be a programmer, you just need to be able to imagine.

I am good at imagining, and I've been getting better at drawing, still don't wanna post any artwork cuz shitty phone is shitty.

As long as you get the world building part right then at least design wise you will have a solid base to fall back onto.

Aight, cool, also I still have yet to get a scanner, but I do have this picture http://i.imgur.com/StSZvzT.jpg So, tell me, besides the fact I forgot the tail, how does it look?

The shoulders are a bit off, and that's about it, good drawing.
Good works with the double chainsaw, the shotgun looks like shit tho.

Welp, thanks for the honesty, everywhere I go, I'm praised as a Picasso, lol and I am quite frankly offended they'd compare me too such a novice XD(joking ofcourse)

It took him a whole life time to draw like a child.
However his drawings when he was 16 years old are unbelievable, that talented motherfucker.

Crazzy though, that he had to burn some to keep warm.

Well good that his art allowed him to live, in a way.
If he were a digital artist he would have been fucked.

Yep, classical artist FTW. Also, I've been drawing alot of furries lately

Explain that last part better, I've been drawing alot of furries, and this chat I'm on says they'll pay me to draw for them.

Well some people have to pay for their fetishes, some people like to pay for their fetishes, and some people like to have to pay for their fetishes.

The 3 cases are weird either way, but good for you man!

Not sure hw they'd pay me though, paypal I guess.

Or go with the flow and make a Patreon account like everyone else, but yes paypal works, also i am pretty sure that Deviant Art and the likes, have options for commissions and stuff, and if you are streaming then you could use a subscriber system like Twitch, well you will have to ask someone more in the know about what streaming system is better for artist, since Twitch is for gaming.

I hear picarto is good for streaming, buuut I don't know how I would stream given I don't have the equipment.

Then use normal portfolio sites like DA and charge using Paypal, if Bitcoin was more stable you could also get a wallet and charge using it (which is not entirely a bad idea since people can send you money there and you don't have to necessarily link it to a credit card, yet you can still exchange the money, and directly use the wallet to buy things in different websites), there's also Behance but i guess that one is more for people ready to go out there and face the world.

These things confuse me, but I'll see about using them, thank you for the tremendous aount of help you've given me.

Well the point is that there are options.

lmao, this is the shit man!

Turd of the week?

Of the year(s) actually this is the lazy way to update the blog and leave it at it for a while XD.

Hmm, I need to learn to draw better, also I might be getting a new computer, so yay.

Congratulations on the new pc!
So what happened with the furries?

Hey, you still scouted? This guy dragoonfenix15 has been here as long as I have, and he's finally uploaded 4 illustrations... and btw, I'm homeless now lol

I am still scouted, but i lost all those privileges like scouting people or browsing the unscouted section a year ago, and i have no idea why, but there probably was a reason for that i hope, not like i care anymore, nowadays whenever i find someone worth scouting (by sheer chance) i ask the favor to CyberD, so he kinda ends taking the risk in my place.

Oh man, and where the hell are you then? did you went with the trailer idea? are you at a hotel? house of a friend, family, acquaintance? a shelter home? ... camping? oh man don't say camping, that can wreck a body in days.

Technically I camped out at my old home for over a week before I finally could turn it over to the new owners... I cancelled all utilities to the house earlier this month, and they took their sweet time in doing it, as did the new owner's presence of me leaving said home (last inspection before I handed the keys over), which happened this past Friday, finally |:

In a hotel now, waiting on Tom to get back to the office (I'm about 10 minutes away!), as he may know of a good place for me to rent/crash locally.

I see so you will go from the hotel, to renting, since you are already on the zone will you still go with the trailer idea, or go with a house?

I've been graciously allowed the use of a bunk at NG HQ, so I'll crash there tomorrow night. I'd like to stay at the Sleepycabin, and that might happen, but nothing's for sure.

Ugh, nah, can't do a trailer, not on these roads and time of year... the snow's gonna be coming soon O_O

Sneak into their podcast if you do end crashing at the sleepycabin.

That's a good point.

Sneak in? That doesn't sound creepy as fuck O_o

It's amazing how many old buildings and roads are untouched here in eastern PA, but old colonial roads have their downsides too, like being too narrow, too windy, blind corners and intersections that aren't quite square. Despite this, the roads here are much better than in NJ, that's for sure!

It works, their podcast are usually creepy as fuck anyways...

Maybe they are in better shape because they are not under heavy use?

Idk, they just hung on to what still works I guess, the cement they laid here is top notch to be sure!

(The rocks and sand used) must have come from quite a rich river then.

With the furries, othing, I'm still drawing for them, though still for free, I need to set up a payment system, I don't know, but I do think I've been getting better at drawing atleast.

Improvement is always good news, well you could also try and get a bigger fanbase advertise yourself and all that jazz, or if you don't feel ready interact and strengthen the bonds with the ones you already have.
