AKA idk how to title and that is going to be changed like 200000 times before this is done. Idk how to forum or put photos in this and im not gonna try, so links will lead to my twitter or art blog where i post my updates regularly.

Please feel free to leave criticism, especially on coloring or map arrangement, sometimes im like "that looks ok" but it does n ot..

Goals:

• Due to time constraint by school, and my pea sized attention span, create a demo for what would be a game, at least.

Basic Plot:

A witch in the forest receives letters from God that people's "time" have come, and goes out to kill them, thus earning the name "The Forest Reaper". Upon heavy questioning whether what they are doing is right, and if these letters are even from the God which they so claim they are, the Reaper heads out to find who has been sending the letters.

Day 1:

Nothing to report seeing as I spent most of the day taking care of my baby cousin. Switched game engine from Construct 2 > Clickteam Fusion > RPG Maker 2003. Changed my concept from infinite runner, to infinite runner/ beatemup, to rpg adventure game.

I know my general ropes on RPG Maker VX, but have never made my own sprites or tiles, bought 2003 on the Steam Sale and plan to experiment with it.

Day 2:

Decided on plot finally and began to sketch characters and made sprites.

Day 3:

Is today day three??? I think it is...

Made some tiles for the first 2 maps

Made this beautiful error (video) -> http://osombu.tumblr.com/post/136630917046/

Finally took the time to make this post!

Set up some test events and started working on the sprites for them.

oh this looks so cool! i'm excited to see it when it's done!

I love that its footsteps sound like death. That's really great (even if it's not final haha)

Your progress so far looks solid!

This looks way to adorable - the style is so nice! Also, I like those footsteps. You should ship it as is.

oh yeah!! i remember seeing this on tumblr!!! i'm a big big big fan of dark skull headed creatures hahaha HAHA there's one in my game too— but yes, i'm sooo psyched about this!!! oh man, i can't wait to see more!!

Day 4

so ive come to realize??/ this jam runs at the worst time for me due to me being a stage manager for my schools musical, and we're going to have rehearsals until 10pm everyday for the next 2 weeks!! whoops.

anyways i wrote a bit to my script, added a few new assets, replaced some place holders for events with the actual event, and 2 new map areas with the tiles i made the other day. hopefully i will get more done tonight and tomorrow (since tomorrow is basically my calm before the storm) but the rest of this may only get done during my minimal free time,,, lets hear it for proper planning....haha... i was hoping i was going to get more than a demo out but! this will give me an independent project for my animation class that i will get a month to work on if i cant finish the whole game by the end of the jam.

aa good luck with your musical stuff!! i used to a bit of musical in high school ik it can really suck up time + energy. i love this project i'd love to see it even beyond this jam so you should def shoot it our way when you finish!

Im kinda disappointed i didnt get very far into the game jam becasue shortly after week 2 began, the musical started up and i ended up getting sick towards the end of it all. Its also a project i may want to spend some more time on than the game jam and my schedule permitted. thank you for the support and everythign!! i had a lot of fun and learned a lot in the process, i look forward to seeing everyones games. i hope ill be able to put out something for yall to look at in the near future!
