I have the important parts of the script for a game, the important part of its mechanics down, but I cant seem to visualize how I want the lighting and I can tell that if I dont get it right it's going to ruin the whole thing

It's kinda crazy that there is only 4/7 chapters of deltarune out but it's still the best game I have ever played.

I could probably get better outreach on my posts if I really cared about it by changing my pfp but it's so hard to do that because my pfp makes me laugh every time I see it.

I don't have much more to say on the matter, I was kinda just ranting lol. i wish roblox as a platform was safer and treated their dev's better, but stuff like PHIGHTING, Blocktales, Pressure, and more kinda prove to me that good ass games can come from anywhere, which is nice.

And have become some of my best friends. They're all also artists by the way, which is why I'm thinking there's some secret sauce to phighting's visuals that surpass even most other games.

Why I enjoy the mechanics of the game competitively comes to to mostly very personal and probably not very common feelings towards multi-player combat mechanics in videogames but the more personal reason is cuz some of the people I've meet playing comp phighting are the best people I've ever met

I don't know too much about character design though, so maybe I'm not the best person to speak on the topic lol. But the game genuinely feels like it's going to have a surge of popularity that kinda surpasses it's status as a roblox game similar to Doors/Pressure or a certain asym game.

I think the important aspect of that second bit is that it's not trying to be a "wholesome game" in the sense that the world of phighting is actually pretty violent from even the very inception of it's lore, and yet the characters are still colorful and distinct.

my main theory is that its prolly a combination of it far surpassing the standards of what roblox players expect from a roblox game, especially in terms of visuals, and then also how all the playable characters are young adults with distinct personalities while half of them are still cutesy

of why people love the gsme despite how unpolished aspects of it are. But it doesn't really explain why people care all that much about its world and characters.

there are a lot of unique traits that help it stand it's own as a multiplayer game compared to other mp games such as each map having a unique 3 minute track, map gimmicks working well with the gameplay (A map with an airplane that instakills you is comp viable, and fun) so I do get that side

The game isn't as fun or well made as something like splatoon (for most it probably isn't, not yet atleast.) And matches have no real pacing to them, but are only 4 minutes long. (Annihilate, the only current gamemode that rewards more than good offense is generally the least fun gamemode)

The best explanation for how I personally got into the game and it's community (although the main community I interact with is the comp scene lol) is that I just liked the games vibes. It felt like splatoon but I could play as defined characters like a hero shooter and that was enough for me

Before it even had most of it's lore figured out plenty of people were drawing phighting fanart or making fanfics, and I'm not sure if the devs have figured out most of the lore even now.

PHIGHTING feels like such an anomaly among things with even small fanbases. It has a a comic that's pretty good so far with enjoyable writing and really good art, but that comic only captures a very small part of the PHIGHTING world and characters that people make fanart of.

This particular article reminded me that I haven't continued my Disco Elysium save in a few months. I should really get to that.

Once again, if you care at all about writing in video games or even just writing in general I don't know if there's someone who understands the subject better than doc. Even this article's bundle of thoughts feels coherent.
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT! I HAVE WRITTEN A NEW ARTICLE!
this one's a bit weird; rather than doing my usual "trying to organize my thoughts and building a winding case that builds on itself," I decided to show you what my EARLY article creation process looks like:

some loosely organized thoughts about dialogue sysin games
think of this as me trying to find out what parts of dialogue choices are load bearing game design and what else can be done with dialogue.
