","format":"md","likes":4,"spam":"N"},{"id":1058918,"author_name":"LDJam user 382819","author_uid":"382819","epoch":1713410064,"text":"With a heart full of respect and gratitude, I'm back, and this time I want to leave something more sincere and valuable behind.\n\nI've just had a long discussion with our team's artists about the questions you've asked, considering the directions from which you should approach them. Since our development environments differ and our social contexts are not the same, much of our experience may serve as a reference but might not be replicable. It would be great if we could help you.\n\nFirstly, our team was officially formed four days before the competition, but our core members were already there in February. At that time, we emulated the most primitive Game Jam environment, starting from scratch without any preparation to grind through a small project. As a result, our core artists and our programmer have a certain level of tacit understanding in the workflow. We all know what the other person needs at any given moment and when to prepare what components. \n\nFor example, in the early stages, they would first prepare modular character, background, and UI sketches for testing. This also established certain visual dimensions for subsequent production, which we call \"standard parts.\"\n\n\nOur last artist arrived two days before the competition, and at that time, I held a meeting with the four of them. They quickly communicated some ideas about the art:\n\n\nWe must not choose Western fantasy themes for this competition. On the one hand, as a team from China, we naturally have cultural barriers and are at a disadvantage in this area, so we must play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses. On the other hand, we anticipated that many people would choose Western fantasy themes, so we must create something more differentiated.\n\n\nAfter determining the general direction of production, they quickly communicated their respective areas of expertise and artistic styles, then compiled a document about each other's works for reference. On this basis, they established a workflow, with some responsible for background images to determine the size of standard parts; some for the title interface, as this is the most visually demanding and requires a strong first impression; and some for the overall polishing, segmentation, and packaging. They quickly set up an \"art factory.\"\n\n","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":1058926,"author_name":"LDJam user 382819","author_uid":"382819","epoch":1713410195,"text":"Upon learning that the theme was \"summoning,\" they quickly decided that our theme presentation should be realistic. Moreover, since three of them are very good at sketch styles (to be honest, I'm an art layman, and I'm not sure whether they are really good at \"sketches\" or if it's just easier to be lazy with them), the overall art style was also determined. \n\nAfter confirming the main artist's ideas, they quickly collected many reference images and compiled a new document. It includes many details, large and small, such as line thickness, color presentation, and overall style references. This saved them a lot of communication costs in the later stages, allowing them to focus on art production rather than communication details in the second half of the competition. \n\nAlright, now let me provide something more concise and valuable:\n\n1.In the early stages of team formation, understand what game engine you are facing. On the one hand, many things can be implemented by the program rather than necessarily needing to be drawn. On the other hand, you need to know the limitations of this engine and what format and standard of materials it requires from you.\n\n2.Before establishing a theme, have a general expectation of the direction and art style you want to take in this competition. At least know which aspect your desired work leans towards and in which aspect your teammates excel. You can prepare some relevant materials together, such as a bright color scheme and a gloomy one to cope with the next game being light-hearted or terrifying.\n\n3.It is crucial to allocate the workflow in advance, prepare work standards, and confirm reference details. This will allow you to quickly form productivity, avoid much unnecessary time waste, and greatly reduce the possibility of \"rework.\"\n\n4.There must be as complete a value assessment of the art work as possible, ensuring that your time allocation is spent on effective artistic performance as much as possible. It is very likely that some art and animations you have spent a long time on may not be very noticeable in the game, making them ineffective.\n\n5.Always try to maximize your strengths and create differentiated or very familiar things. This will help your art realization more. \n\nThat's all we can think of for now, my friend, as our artists are still quite \"zombie-like\" at the moment, and our experience is not very abundant. We have told you everything we can think of without reservation because we believe this is the embodiment of the \"independent spirit\" and the thing that should be done more in this competition.\n\nWe are very willing to communicate with you in depth and are also happy to become friends with you. At this moment, even though we are at the other end of the world, I still feel that my heart is connected with yours. \n\nThis is what I call the most precious thing.\n","format":"md","likes":4,"spam":"N"},{"id":1061062,"author_name":"Gabriel Bissonnette","author_uid":"gabriel-bissonnette","epoch":1713458611,"text":"Cool game!

The music is also lovely. Then, I checked the engine you used and felt impressed as I am not a very proficient programmer myself and struggled to make a good dialogue system in GameMaker :) \n\nBut I also had that problem with walking over assets:\n\n![walkover.jpg](\/\/\/raw\/c93\/65\/z\/64757.jpg)\n\nI remember then, in my GameMaker game, I solved it with brute force by using transparent blocks.\nLooking at assets and the overall mechanics, I would say RPG Maker MV could also be a good engine for this game. While a bit restricting, it would allow you to do the same things and in an easier way, leaving you more time for development :)\n\nAlso, I noticed these buttons on dialogue window that don't seem clickable:\n\n![buttons.jpg](\/\/\/raw\/c93\/65\/z\/64759.jpg)\n\nIf it's just part of design, I feel like it can be confusing for a player to have unactive buttons :') \n\nReally nice voiceover, always such a treat to hear some voiceover in jam games! The singing is beautiful ^^\nDog spirit is also adorable. \n\nI could \"take the rope\" from the tree again after talking to Butler. That activated rope-themed dialogue with Butler for 2nd time. However, it didn't affect my quest and he accepted my cleaning efforts.\n\nAlso, I think it would be neat if looking at lady's portrait after learning who she is from Butler changed dialogue a bit. Though it still works as is.\n\nI think, when we get to these dialogue lines, it's better to hide baroness's sprite and leave just the MC:\n\n![sprite.jpg](\/\/\/raw\/c93\/65\/z\/6475a.jpg)\n\nDoor of the music room is a bit buggy to get through, you have to go a bit up:\n\n![buggydoor.jpg](\/\/\/raw\/c93\/65\/z\/6475b.jpg)\n\nFinally, it would be neat to have some picture\/still\/words before credits to wrap it up carefully <3 \n\nNow, for my OVERALL THOUGHTS:\n\nThis game is so sweet! I enjoyed playing it a lot. Excuse me for a long comment, but I liked it so much that I wish to be helpful in upgrading it after Jam ^-^ If you ever do a polished version, maybe with 100% of only your own visual assets, I would love to try it again! The story is nice and simple, at the same time touching, but I can see a lot of opportunities to expand it. The main character is likeable, and it also makes me want to continue getting to know her in her future adventures. \n\nThank you for the game!
