Some Bullshit - Stuffing Focused RPG Maker Game

You can try using Joiplay.

I can’t figure out how to use it

I don’t think it works

I said I would do it…

Haven’t drawn in a while, so I’m a little rusty. I’ll gladly take character drawing suggestions however. Hope you all like it.

What a beautiful smile, who wouldn’t join that cult

I’d join his cult. Look at that smile, who could say no to him?

Sadly, I don’t have the method to make an android version, and I think several mini games like skiing would break! I would suggest getting a working PC!

Comments like this is enough for me! Thanks for the kind words.

Nice work, I see you’ve been spreading the good word of Emmie and the gang around the world. Very kind of you!

Thank you for your kind words! I probably won’t have too many more flashbacks, as we need to finish the game and most of the characters are pretty boring! Not saying it won’t happen, but it won’t be as detailed. First, Pro joined the guard at 16. He was a weird kid. Any earlier stuff for Emmie is her just sitting in her mansion alone as a little girl. That does leave Clara who is old enough to have a flash back, but… who would ever want to see a younger Clara?

You said plenty! Some of your ideas are interesting, like the collectables. Maybe that would be a fun post game complete project to work on. I did mention the issue with flashbacks above. But really, thanks for the essay, I love reading these.

Sadly, I am not accepting any money on the game. I’ve taken too much hard work from other people in sprites, music, and art that I don’t think it would be fair for me to take in money. But I appreciate the offer! I am also lucky enough to be in a position where I am not hurting for cash day to day. Maybe one day the artist will open comms, but for the time being, this is a no donate game!

Thanks again for all your kind words! Hopefully you won’t have to wait too much longer for Chuck’s new patron and all the new story content that is coming along with it. But same as above, I’m not taking money on the game, but I appreciate the offer.

Alright, that should be most people who I owed a response to! A lot of long posts recently, and as before, I really appreciate it. I don’t take cash, but I do take praise. Makes me feel all fuzzy inside!

If it’s not a big deal, I’ve actually begun work on a side project, a novelization of Some Bullshit called Lantrum. It’s basically going to be a super close retelling of Some Bullshit in novelized form, with some side quests from the story sprinkled in. I’ve just started writing it and I’m doing another playthrough of SB to get the dialogue as close as possible. I’ll upload a link here when I’ve got the first chapter done.

Hope you’re okay with this.
(Edit: It’s going to be in Google Doc form because I’m basic and I’m most familiar with the format. Each chapter will consist of one area each from the story, so I’m gonna guess 20 chapters bare minimum)

Random shot in the dark here, but do you plan to have anymore characters join the party? I literally only ask this because I can’t get the idea of Josh joining your quest out of my head. lol

I can see him as the Bard of the group, being geared towards buffs and debuffs. Like being able to Sugar Rush other characters, stuffing Emmie mid-battle with makeshift desserts (similarly to how Pro’s Tummy Rubs skill works) or dazing the enemies with the wonders of Flavortown.

But mostly he’s hilarious and I love his interactions with Pro lol

Your the 2nd person that suggested Sagal for Clara and I just… don’t see it lol. I always read Lilacor’s lines like his is Mandark from Dexter’s lab.

I think Claudia Black (Morrigan from dragon age) could do Clara fairly well.

Very likely Esse will be the 4th party member, after she gets her own body.

Update on the novel:
Writing process is taking longer than expected, so no link today. In the meantime, I’ll provide a few details and what to expect while reading the Prologue and Chapter 1 when I post it tomorrow.

  1. More in-depth and dramatized fight scenes, so instead of just ā€œswing, get hit, swing, get hit, get healed by Emmieā€ it’s a lot more fleshed out.

  2. Slightly altered events and dialogue to better fit a novelized style. Examples of such include Emmie’s thoughts while approaching the three bandits before Markus, originally meant to explain her mechanics outside of battle, now changed to direct dialogue between her and Pro.

  3. Fuck loads of dialogue and exposition. In trying to adapt the first of many parts of Some Bullshit, I’ve come to realize that there is so much dialogue in Some Bullshit that it’s a little overwhelming at times to convert and rewrite conversations. Hopefully it’s not too much.

  4. Probably really bad writing. I’m an amateur writer at best and I’ve never set myself to write something this long before so I fully expect lots of problems and mistakes in certain areas.

At the current moment I am finishing up writing and editing, fixing grammatical mistakes and what not. Once I finish, I’ll post the link here asap. I’ll be finished by tomorrow, I promise. Anyways, that’s all I wanted to say.
