yeah I plan my trips to the grocery store pretty carefully but when I load up my backpack with food I always end up feeling like "I spent that much and this is it?" and it's on basic stuff.
At least the price on soymilk is down but other stuff like eugghhh x_x

Thank you so much! Gameplay can carry stuff too but having a flawed story can break stuff also hi!

I'm probably going to cop out and like make it stat point based and use that once I narrow down how many stages the game will have.
Jupiter engine looks really cool. I can see how that'd have a huge impact on players when they start up the game.

It's funny you mentioned 3d since I read an interview by him last night where he talked about his methods using 3d and how his first work using it bombed.
That failure though set him up for gantz.

That's excellent. You can do so much with that sort of design.
Hiroya Oku did incredible work with that concept and I think if you can channel their design philosophy you'll be on solid ground.

oh whoa, what engine?
I've got a lil virtual pet minigame going on with my current game and my issue I ran into is at first I was going to do a unique form for every "soul" you fed it.
My issue was I ran into the terror that it'd need 180 unique designs so im trying to figure out a design solutin

Oh whoa, is that the direction for your future games?
VN or different genre.
TBH I think there is a TON of merit in games that have organic hand drawn characters but inorganic computer generated areas to create a sense of coldness and warmth in the world.

Yes, I super loved this game and I need a loveot so bad after reading it.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, I've been nervous about talking about games I love lately but i'm trying to break that pattern.

I am sorry for the extensive amount of posting but I hope you consider including the games.
It would give me a lot of peace of mind to know that there were a bunch of SD cards out there containing the game in case something happened to itch.
Thank you.

A lot of people focus on the english release but so much technical labor went into the translations and I want them to be preserved so badly.

I am actually proud of that translation as it took a lot of technical work.

Hi, I have two games I would like to submit. One might be really hard since it's 18+ and has a lot of triggering content.
It would mean the world to me if you would include it since the game has faced censorship issues previously.
It's titled "He Fucked The Girl Out of Me" and it can be found:

I don't think I have an answer anymore.
I don't want HFTGOOM to be my last thing because I don't want to be solely defined by trauma.
I think I'm just going to keep trying.
I can make another game, and then another. This doesn't have to be painful, making art makes me happy.
