hello! i’m extremely inspired by your game, thank you so much for creating such a wonderful experience. i recently purchased rpg maker on a whim after a big sale. i’ve been wanting to create a game, a story-driven one, and it was such a blessing to see yours! i have a couple of questions;
i’m so lost! what softwares did you use to create the interior and exterior in the top-down sections? or was it all made in rpgmaker itself? how were you able to create the side scrolling scenes? rpgmaker is really fun to use, but i’m just lacking the materials necessary to actually put my ideas into fruition. i’ve been craving to create a big art project:)
what was the brainstorming process like for creating such a story-driven game such as yours?
i apologize for this as you’ve probably had so many questions asking before. thank you for taking time for your response!
hello! thank you so much, i'm really happy that you liked it and that it could inspire you, it's hugely flattering!! i wish you the best of luck with your project!
yep, the whole thing is made in rpg maker mv, though i drew the rooms in clip studio paint (which most people don't advise you to use for pixel art, and aseprite seems to be a much more popular suggestion). the drawing is then set as a parallax background for the map- if you search "parallax mapping rpg maker" you'll find a lot of information about this approach!
you can actually make this kind of side-scrolling section by just having one row of tiles be walkable and drawing larger sprites and a background. sprites can be any size in rpg maker mv so it's just a matter of bending the program to your needs!
as far as the brainstorming process, i collected a lot of photos that inspired me to make the rooms and environments, but i don't think i did much concrete brainstorming for the story itself- it had been marinating in my head for a while and continued to evolve as i worked on the game!

Do not let the antishippers find the Got or House of the Dragon fandom cause they'll cry
Or Labyrinth, or Flowers in the Attic, or any one of Stephen King's books. It's almost as if the wider public understands that fiction can be both fucked up and entertaining without the need for a moral lesson following after, or that it's an indictment that you're going to partake in the things you read about.
Antis are so far removed from reality, and they have to remain that way in order to not have their beliefs constantly challenged and torn apart.
The focus should really be on people learning how to consume a wide range of media in a healthy way, and that includes being able to process feelings of disgust, rage, and discomfort in cases where the narrative absolutely is intending you to feel that way!
It feels like we're witnessing a lot of people now grow too comfortable with what they are familiar with that they project their inability to process negative feelings on others and blame the content itself.
For instance, I am aware that I cannot handle very explicit and violent scenes of SA, and had no warning when I first watched The Flowers of War movie. I remember being so affected, I was haunted by those scenes for days. But I don't condemn the movie for existing just because it contains a subject and content that makes me uncomfortable and upset. Especially for what was a war movie.
Ugly things deserve to exist. The critical focus should be on the execution and narrative intent, and even if those end up being bad, people are allowed to make bad things! People can suck at writing! They exist!
We cannot be wishy washy when it comes to creative freedom, especially when you try to commit what is "morally good" to paper under such a subjective perspective.
Multiple things can exists at once, and in this case it's also the fact people are getting too comfortable with the thought of normalizing certain topics and not in a media literacy type of way, but more of a
"Fiction doesn't equal reality!" Or more disturbingly "So long as they only do it behind close doors and doesn't effect me I don't see the problem"
No one has any issues with horror, or disturbing media, and before anyone says anything I say this as an English literature teacher who focuses on Post war literature so you can IMAGINE the things I have to teach and share understanding with
To word as simply and crudely as possible look below
And not to demonize, but if you are watching say Lolita, and rather than understanding that this is from the POV of a predator and has layer of layers to the story, and instead ingredients IDOLIZING and making this sad story out to be sexy, chic, or god forbid, romantic, then you need to stop and question why and see if you have any further issues adding to it
And as much as people hate to acknowledge this, authors DO infact need to be watched and criticized when needed. It's incredibly easy to make CP, romantic violence, bigotry, and hate filled works, and simply slap a genre label on it and then cry "THE ANTIS A RUNING EVERYTHING AND TRYING TO CANCEL ME 😭😭😭😭"
Splatterpunk ESPECIALLY has this issue and is happening with more frequency this last few years
To simply call someone an anti without even stopping to think why and to ignore the same critical thinking you demand others to use is sad at best and bitterly pathetic most of the time
Perhaps you're not getting the point of the original post, so I'm going to back up a bit. You may not have been in fandom spaces for long enough to know that "proshipping" is a term created by antis so they could carve out an "us vs. them" space in fandom.
Proshipping was the default. "Live and let live" was the motto most fans lived by, at least when I first got into fanfiction in the 90s. This is how I (and a lot of people) define it.
- Proshipping is anti-censorship. It says nothing about being unable to criticize said media. It says nothing about romanticizing, normalizing, sexualizing, etc. It only means "you shouldn't ban and persecute artists and those who consume their art."
- That being said, there is nothing inherently wrong with having fantasies, no matter how dark and taboo. Thoughts are not actions. Literature will not "poison" the mind or the soul. "Getting off" on dark content is not a sin. These fears and talking points are steeped in conservative Christian values. Perhaps you are a conservative/Christian, but that has nothing to do with me, or with anyone else.
- Allowing "bad" content to exist doesn't mean you can't criticize it. The problem is, many antis seem to think stalking, harassing, and doxxing someone until they disappear off social media is the socially acceptable way to criticize fellow fans and artists.
- By stating proshippers don't want you to criticize or scrutinize anything, you either don't know what proshipping is, or you're moving the goalpost.
- "Antis are trying to cancel me!" We aren't afraid of antis cancelling us. We're afraid of being stalked, harassed, having our workplaces called on us and accusing us of being predators, etc. (Yes, this does happen, I have real world examples of it). I don't think you realize what a toxic, unsafe environment fandom has become because of this fanatical obsession with "good behavior" when it comes to literature.
- How do you define romanticize? Who gets to decide what is romanticizing and what isn't? What if you think I'm romanticizing something, while I believe I'm writing it in a non-romantic way? Who gets the final say?
- "Authors need to be watched" Authors are not here to teach you moral lessons, let alone need to be watched (whatever the hell that means). If you want moral lessons, go to church. I'm not being facetious. If you want your literature to "teach right from wrong" (and I say that very generously because I'm no longer religious), then controlling authors is not the way.
- "We're not against dark subjects, we're against romanticizing and getting off on it." Got it. No one is allowed to be horny from sinful fantasies.
- "So long as they only do it behind close doors and doesn't effect me I don't see the problem" I'm not sure what you find wrong with this statement. What do you care what consenting adults do behind closed doors? These talking points you're coming up with are reminiscent of right-wing, historically anti-queer language. Whether intentionally or not.
- "We're not against writing/exploring dark topics!" That's. That's exactly what antis are against. Because they can't agree on HOW to explore those topics "tastefully" or "correctly." They can't even agree amongst themselves what content is problematic. It's a goddamn train wreck of hypocrisy.
I know exactly why antis think they way they do. I was Mormon once. You don't get more pro-censorship, thought-policing than that. So, yes, I have years of personal history and critical thinking when it comes to considering the media I consume. Don't worry about me, I'm doing just fine.
What I worry about are young people growing up in this environment where fantasies aren't only considered sinful, they're considered harmful, and they're being told to purge them from their thoughts if they want to be a good person. I can't even begin to describe how harmful that is to children and adults alike.

There are no churches in Gaza! Lie number 1
There are no Christians in Gaza. Lie number 2
Hamas drove Christians out. Lie number 3
I don’t know what happened. Lie number 4
I haven’t seen the reports about the shooting. Even though she starts the interview with saying she has seen them. Lie number 5
The amount of lies they spew is actually frightening. And it’s never ending. The intense amount of gaslighting is incredible. How can they be trusted with anything they say. EVER!!!

In Gaza today, God is under the rubble. He is in the operating room. If Christ were to be born today, he would be born under the rubble. We see his image in every child killed and pulled from under the rubble. In every child in incubators. Manger at Christmas Lutheran Church Bethlehem . Munther Ishaq.

I'm gonna be thinking about this all day
If you deadname someone in the death note it kills you
In one of the Death Note live action movies (I think it was Light Up the New World), a man changes his name after harboring guilt about past crimes and trying to atone (not even answering to that name). He's only killed after his new name gets put in the book, since he shed his old name.
Man wasn't trans, but if the logic applied to him, logic should apply to trans people too!
This rule implies that birth names are not necessarily the names given to you at birth.
That means you can change your name or consider yourself to have a new name and the death note recognizes it.
Death Note is an ally.
Diversity win! this Death Note kills trans people but doesn’t deadname them!

So I looked up the whole story and, as the BBC reports:

I legitimately want to know what the wife’s reaction to this was. I know she deserves to go to jail for attempted murder, but I can only just wonder what was going through her head when she saw him get out of bed complaining of a headache.
There is not a singular use better for that picture anywhere on the internet.
