Hey Everyone,

The reason for no blog post yesterday was because I worked hard all day and some of the night and then collapsed into my bed.

I decided to drop my game and focus on making an Adventurezator level.

I worked hard all day and part of the night till about 11 PM and then I spent like 30 minutes trying to upload it >_>

I am very happy with my level and managed to get basically everything done in it except for cutscenes which were not a requirement.

Aside from a few graphical errors which I couldn't / didn't have time to fix the level is playable and from what I tested finishable.

It has two different endings depending on which objectives you complete.

If you have Adventurezator: When Pigs Fly and want to check it out here's the link - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=495621048&searchtext= .

Now for some general thoughts on the IGMC 2015 experience.

Overall this was a great experience for me.

Even though I didn't complete a proper game due to unexpected circumstances I enjoyed the process of making what I did immensely.

I am now also inspired to go on and learn how to use RPG Maker VX Ace though not as much now since the announcement of the new RPG Maker MV and the lack of backwards compatibility.

I still hope to at least finish my submission game and then will probably start learning more JavaScript as that is what RPG Maker MV will be using instead of Ruby which is what RPG Maker VX Ace used.

I also hope to invest in a decent laptop in the near future so I can start experimenting with some of the new engines I have.

I am now going to hopefully sleep for about a week...maybe more...

Hey Everone,

I let myself down today and didn't get what I wanted to get done finished.

I managed to complete some Skills but still have some left.

I didn't even start on maps or my Adventurezator level.

I'm going to consider how viable it is but if I want to get my two things in the contest I may need to pull an all day and all nighter.

I still have the rest of my Skills to complete and all the mapping and eventing so I may not even be able to get it all done and balanced.

I may end up just dropping my game again and concentrating on my Adventurezator level.

I'll see how it goes and make my one last normal IGMC 2015 blog post tomorrow night.

Hey Everyone,

I got the Skills done for the Warrior class and also made two more States in the process.

I didn't get more than that done because I did TAFE this morning and then was helping a friend with their website during the afternoon.

I re-arranged my schedule again and will make up for it tomorrow.

I also removed my stage of drawing rough maps because at this stage it wouldn't really beneift me that much as opposed to going straight into rough maps in the engine.

Hopefully the Skills will be finished, the rough maps in RPG Maker done, and some progress on my Adventurezator level tomorrow.

Hey Everyone,

I am very happy with my progress today.

I managed to do the stats for all Weapons, Armour, and Items and also do all the States (subject to change depending on the Skills).

I didn't get quite as much done today as I would have liked but I got most of it done.

I also double checked and am 99.9% that I get all of Friday (the 7th) and will then have all that night and some of Saturday (the 8th) morning to make sure my game is uploaded due to time zone differences. (I am in Australia and use UTC + 10 while the contest uses UTC time)

I will post on the official Q & A just to make sure.

Because of this I am comfortable with the amount I got done today because I shifted my schedule around and should still have plenty of time to finish and upload my game.

Tomorrow I will be doing all the Skills and drawing the rough maps and hopefully making some progress on my Adventurezator level.

Hey Everyone,

Sorry for the delayed blog post.

I considered my options and I have decided that I will try and submit a cut down version of my game.

I looked at  what would need to be done and how much time I have left and have set out a schedule.

Since then I have come up with the in-game descriptions for all the Weapons, Armour, Items, and the Warrior class, finished the stats and a little bit of balancing for all enemies that will be encountered and the Warrior class with no equips, and today (IGMC Day 28) I will hopefully finish the stats and effects for all the Weapons, Armour and Items, create my Skills and States, and draw up rough versions of all my maps.

I have also come up with a basic plot for my Adventurezator level and if I have any time left over today will decide on all the objectives.
