it unlocks many cool features!
- Day 1
- -I've had enough with being the hero of many RPG Maker
- games. Instead, it's time I make my own RPG Maker game!
- -And so, I've decided to create a new project.
- I don't know what it's going to be about yet,
- but I'm sure it'll be fun to make!
- Day 2
- -I'm already at a loss as to where to even begin
- making my game. I have so many ideas in my head
- that I don't know which one I should start with.
- Day 3
- -Well, since I'm getting started, I made the
- final boss of my game. I gave it 999,999 HP
- and 999 all stats.
- -Very fitting for a final boss, am I right
- or am I right?
- Day 5
- -I think I'll make my game into an open world RPG!
- That way, players will be able to play for more
- than 100 hours! Sounds like a great idea!
- Day 7
- -Decided to make some mini-games before I start
- off with the actual gameplay.
- -I'll be adding in mining, fishing, and farming!
- Seems solid to me.
- Day 9
- -I have no idea what I want to do with the
- plot, so instead, I'll start off the main
- character inside a random village.
- -I'll figure out the plot as I make the
- game so it's no big deal.
- Day 15
- -I've discovered plugins.
- They can do so much to change your game.
- -I've downloaded over 100 plugins and I'll
- be installing all of them in my game!
- Day 20
- -Getting so pissed that these two battle system
- plugins aren't working together at all.
- -Why should that ever be an issue!?
- Day 30
- -It's been one month since I've started making my
- game and I haven't made much progress at all.
- -I'm still deciding what kind of features I
- should include in my game.
- -These plugins keep giving me too many ideas
- and I want to include them all!
- Day 60
- -Send help! I spent two months working on
- this game and did a test play.
- -I've clocked only 15 minutes of gameplay time!???
- How am I supposed to reach my 100 hour epic???
- Day 90
- -It's been three months now and I still
- haven't finished the first chapter.
- -Why am I making so little progress?
- Day 120
- -Four months. Four friggin' months, man!
- I can't believe I've worked on this game
- for this long.
- -I guess people weren't kidding when they
- said I couldn't make a 100 hour game in
- less than four tiny months.
- Day 180
- -It's been half a year... And only now, I've
- just finished my first chapter.
- -To make things worse, this chapter only had
- one hour of gameplay time.
- -Going at this rate, this will take me 50 years
- before I can finish a 100 hour game!
- Day 270
- -Nine months now. That's the average time a
- woman is pregnant with a baby.
- -Yet, a baby is ready in a faster time than
- my actual game. How can this be?
- Day 365
- -It's officially been a year since I've started
- making this game and I can't say the progress
- I've made is looking great.
- -I originally calculated it would take six
- months per chapter, but I'm not even done
- with chapter two right now.
- -What am I going to do...?
- Day 400
- -I can't help but to wonder, do all indie
- devs go through this?
- -Game dev is an absolute nightmare from
- what I first thought.
- -You'd think with all the indie games on
- Steam that making this stuff would be a
- piece of cake.
- Day 567
- -Some of my acquaintances who were working on
- RPG Maker projects are just now releasing
- their games.
- -Meanwhile, I've barely got a demo made.
- And to make things worse, people were
- dissing my demo left and right.
- -They said it was overly generic, felt like
- every other RPG Maker game, and the gameplay
- was too random and unfocused.
- -......
- -I feel so hurt.
- Day 765
- -After all the harsh criticism I've gotten
- from my demo, I think I've lost a lot of
- my motivation.
- -I don't even want to touch my game. In fact,
- I haven't done any work on it since my game's
- demo was released.
- -I wish I could go back in time and stopped
- myself from releasing the demo.
- -No, I wish I could go back further and stopped
- myself from ever working on this stupid game.
- Day 1111
- -It's been some three years since I've started
- working on my game, but the amount of time I've
- actually worked on it is questionable.
- -Sometimes, I go days and even weeks without
- even touching my game. I want to just delete
- it all: these past three years of my life...
- Day 1450
- -It's almost four years since I've started
- working on my game. Hard to believe, isn't it?
- -I began working on it again from time to time
- as a means of coping with myself.
- -I don't want to imagine all the time I've
- spent on this game was pointless.
- Day 2024
- -It's been so long since I've started work
- on this dumb game. Maybe five years now?
- -I'm so tired of it. I want to do something
- different, but each time I look at it, I'm
- reminded of all the time I've spent.
- -I don't want that time to feel wasted,
- but I just want to run away from it all
- and lock myself away.
