Holy cow, your game is beautiful. That's really all I can say about it.


Oh, but back on the debate about the grass, it occurs to me that the "grayer" one is more reminiscent of SNES-era RPGs, whilst the more vibrant colors feel more modern. So perhaps the reason people tend to gravitate toward the old colors is just one of nostalgia.

Haha, it does seem like that doesn't it. As for your question.. I don't know man. I barely have free time again, works been picking up a lot for the past month or so, pretty much right after I made all the changes to the game work just piled on and hasn't let up since. Today was like my first day off in a while actually. But thanks for taking an interest, Arbors Eve I see is still coming a long nicely as well.

@Ekans is eating a pikachu - Thank you & nostalgia is a good way of looking at it, never even occurred to me.

Edit - The screenshot I posted in the screenshot topic.. Almost a tongue twister there ;D

yeah it looks like three mr saturns wearing a trenchcoat so they can sneak into the android's dungeon for the tom savini talk, even though they were banned for life after they told martin's mom that the junk in her basement was valuable.

If you don't plan on making people search blindly through the different compartments at some point, it looks quite nice. Only minor issue I see is that if there's an exit in that lower-right area (is there?) you may want to make it more evident. If there's not supposed to be anything there, disregard my previous sentence. =p Same thing with doors to other train cars.

Here's the new version. It was decidedly way too big for an interior of a train it seems.

My only problem is a train should be very...I don't really remember the right words.

But it should be very the same. And the exit/entrance should be in the center of the train, in the same exact place on both sides. Which it isn't for your train right now. I've never seen a train where this isn't the case, otherwise it'd be weird.

I really am not articulate right now.

sleeping cars and dining cars appear to have either no doors, or doors at the end. an i would move the right exit down one tile so it matches up better with the floor, otherwise ppl are walking right up against the cabin doors/windows.

@Whatever your names are at this moment in time - Yeah that did bug me as well, but then I remembered games like Gears of War and movies like Sherlock Holmes where they had doors on both sides of the carriage in different places. I actually did a little research into how trains looked as I couldn't get it the way I thought it should look and how I wanted it to look.

Outside of the Train..

Is that a train a rip or is it an original? I don't believe I've seen that particular graphic before.

It's original, not by me though haha. It's part of the Theodore set of tiles. The train in the screenshot though is just a picture.

Oh yeah I saw that. It's pretty awesome, had a lot more subscribers to my game page because of it. I'm quite amazed at the attention my games been getting over at RMN.. The good and bad.

What I don't understand about the RPG Maker community, sometimes, is I think people think what they do is far more impressive than what they actually...do. You made a stupid edit? Who cares, you didn't actually do anything. And for a community that relies a lot on "Fair Use" it's awfully ironic. Especially considering people who use makers with licenses they don't even own.

It's so stupid and annoying and part of the reason why the community becomes so stagnant.



I hope you have a nearby or sister city named Gospel.
