Job.
MiserableIt's bussing tables at a pub. A pub for people with sexual orientations unlike my own. (I'm cute, so I've been informed.) It's one of those places where you're constantly hearing the kitchen staff bang stuff and swear at the dishwasher.
I'm not going to stop looking for other work. But at least it's something for now.PS. THE RACCOON RETURNS.

Books are good. I'll try to find it. There are many books I want to read. Rainwing recommended one called Tooth and Claw or Tooth and Nail. It's about dragons. I thought I found it a while ago but it turned out to be a crime story.
Yeah, I guess it's been decades. I wouldn't mind using a different game system, but I all ready paid $60 for RMXP, and I've spent months learning how to code with it.
Here's the thing I've been working on instead: [link] There's still a lot broken in it.
Project fidelity is an elusive thing. I'm starting to get unfinished paintings piling up around my room. MUST AVOID THAT.
Electrocution cures depression?
Didn't they try that all through the 1900s, and it's a horrible inhumane thing? I guess there's a grain of truth to it though.

My novel!
Another thing I was experimenting with was the dropping of dynamic lighting in Construct to the canvas object, obviously boosting performance incredibly once dropped. It was only really viable for single-screen rooms, but enabled the use of changing dynamic lighting (on level load) cast over reusable normal-mapped assets; basically, dynamic lighting on 2D levels without just pre-rendering the whole thing. That was also fun to get working, but I never wound up making a game to use it with.
Here's something I was working on. It was a bit further than this, but I never got a version exported before Construct bit the dust. I've still got the events to rewrite, just not pieced it back together yet. Simple brush toy.
Your RMXP games are really fabulous; I think you take the potential of that platform to the limit. (Again, I really like this project4 business!) I just wish there were some way to take it away from the graphical appearance of an RPG Maker game. Hmnf.
Simplicity is good, but it's still fun to make something look unique... hmn, hmn. Hmn!
Do you think LR2 would work in Construct? If it's open source (like RMXP with the RGSS) then I guess you can do almost anything. If it's possible to achieve the "camera" effect then there's nothing to stop us.
I drew a cat in your program.

My novel!
For some reason, I can't figure out how to save. So I got reeeaally far, like all the way to the recharger, but then the plastic explosive crashed the game. :< Oh well, it's fun and not boring to replay. The way you've done it is great. ♥ Seriously, and the portraits and stuff for the dudes and on the logs are really great. I feel like I haven't even seen a fraction of the game yet though, especially because on I've only been a mathematician so far.
Yes, the cat came out looking a little sick. But it was still fun to do. I like the trooper chick. The thigh guards are interesting. And is that a horse whip?
You can mail cookies if you want.
PS. I've had this on replay for pretty much all of today: [link]

I think LR2 would work just fine, probably better. You can make pretty much anything 100% custom in Construct, though there are preset behaviours and effects to help (they're useful). Camera effect... hm, I'm not sure I remember what you mean. The taking of pictures? That's possible, but the image manipulator is kinda laggy. :\ Might be the one reason not too. I'm not sure why it can't save/load/capture images quickly.
Yes, I noticed some missing splashes. SS2 influences were my first thought! Actually, Fallout was my first thought, with all the character stats, but once in the game I was happy to find the other too. I don't know what I can contribute, ahah. If you lived closer (or I lived closer; could always move to Quebec) then I could bake cookies, and contribute cookies to the project. That'd be good!
... other than that I'm just not sure what I'd make. I've been meaning to try scifi/etc environments but haven't done any yet. I did however draw a stormtrooper chick last night! [link] - kinda want to model her too. Then I could put her in a space station.
