Blehhh....

Brought home my old iMac G3 from storage today, and it booted up fine, once... and then wouldn't again.

I guess parts for them are fairly cheap, but it still feels really bad...

Is it normal if you're sad that you're normal?

I, um, uh. Well then, I guess this game sure has changed over the years... https://awoo.space/media/BOvTSu_YMgJGTzUZaco

*sees another game jam being talked about online*

Make a game in a week? I don't think I could make one in a whole year...

I wonder how a tactics/strategy game would be if the main gameplay wasn't designed around combat, but around exploration and treasure-hunting instead?

Battle Hunter for PS1 did this somewhat, though combat was still important in many ways... but its main focus was on finding a target treasure and exiting the map with it still in your possession, while using items to slow down your opposing treasure-hunters. I wonder if another game like that would be interesting...

@typhlosion FFTA is probably my favorite GBA game by a very large margin ^.^

(Though, of those, only FFTA and Disgaea are tactics games, and Battle Hunter is really closer to a board game... and I really liked the branching story and exploration in Riviera more than its combat gameplay...)

I've wanted to make something interesting and maybe a little similar to some games I've played before? Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Battle Hunter (PS1), Riviera: the Promised Land, and Disgaea have all been games I've really, really enjoyed, and I'd like to make something like them...

@not_on_pizza@toot.cat Oh that sounds just like me, too :S Nothing I've done recently has gotten past the writing-down-ideas stage...

I've always gravitated towards making strategy games, board games, or some combination of both...

I haven't really finished any game in those genres, though, with the closest being a board game idea I started a few years ago and a forum RPG-strategy-game-thing I ran many, many years ago...

Someday I would like to make ... a game? I can't even describe what kind of game it should be...

Though at this point, having not actually made anything since shortly after starting college, making anything would be nice...

My timeline on birdsite flies by so fast most days that I have no sense of having read or seen anything on it, only a vague and usually incomplete memory of a sound byte or image macro I might have seen and can't remember exactly enough to share.

Thank you, awoo.space, for feeling less like a group of people fighting to talk over one another and more like a group of friends having thoughtful conversation with each other.
