I remember, just barely, the days of existing on the internet when you could have a rich social life on some random forum and be reasonably confident that even though technically public, niche visibility would shield your words from being exposed to groups who wanted to cause harm.
I want that back.
Here are some of the results from a glitching session recently: https://awoo.space/media/HSMjM-nSCPMS6Ty6fXE https://awoo.space/media/EyqqEBKaKAFbpj7r0Dg https://awoo.space/media/8T5se7Czh0aFsLEsKm8 https://awoo.space/media/NdL-9J9Hu2-49-6URBw

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

The runners include GDQ alumni like PrincessProto and EnchantressOfNumbers, and the game line up is actually really unique with a heavy focus on romhacks and randomizers. The final block on Sunday night is runs/races of all three of the Zelda 1, 2 and 3 randomizers in a row.
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...
(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...
Poly trans cuddlefloof programmer and gamedev(?). I love poking around in and reverse engineering old games. I'm also super shy and have horrible anxiety, so ... please be nice...
