(some might call it a hoax)
who wants to make this title screen a reality?

Of course. Gotta help my fellow man.

I always thought Romhacking.net would be the secondary hacking resource for any and everything, since it has no focus.

This year I wanted to set up a bowl of Reese's by my door that I'd start eating when a kid came up to ask for candy. I'd give them a toothbrush instead.

The plan fell through, though. I ended up doing nothing.

I've had my fifteen minutes of fame once or twice before. It wasn't fun.

As such, I'd like to be famous for not being famous. Everyone else in the world is so well known, it's odd that I'm not, and that leads people into making me participate in an interview or something.

This, on the condition that I've not already met them. If I have, then I'd rather just find and start a conversation with a character I'd made up in my head, instead of meeting someone who (hopefully) doesn't remember me in the slightest and trying to make a new first impression, without calling back to the exact fuckups I've made in the past, and how they may or may not have affected said soulmate.

Unless my soulmate is my good buddy CK. That'd be awkward, but I haven't fucked up around him. Also, we're both straight guys.

"Just two dudes bein' dudes, getting a divorce" as one image of a chat log discussing the monetary benefits of marriage so eloquently put it.

Brave thrice, punch all three in any order.

Apparently it's been long enough that either I forgot how to play (likely) or my second attack from having bare hands didn't happen. (unlikely that it ever happened)

Advance this joker into next week.

Continue moving northeast.

Keep moving toward the noise.

Considering this is the resource thread, I figure this is the best place to put this.

So I'm thinking of overhauling the player statbars based on the players' input. I designed them to be compact and simple, but they might be a bit too compact - I've recieved complaints that there isn't enough space for status effects at the bottom of the card. Personally, I think that's what abbreviations are for, but still. So, I want everyone who gives a shit to tell me what they want to see in Amal's statcards. Size, art style, space for information (in pixel measurements if at all possible), layout, etcetera. I'll come back in a week and see who's responded, and make something based on that, even if the style turns out to be on a per-character basis.

Swap Chakra for White Magic, and join the fight. Brave three times, cast Poisona on Annabelle, then Advance the mushroom three times.

Also, I find that <td rowspan=x works well for putting a single cell next to a vertical line of cells.

>Greet Peacefully

: "Hey. Sounded like you guys were having trouble, so I figured I'd come help out. Name's Giga."

He swaps costumes.

: "Hmm... you must be Kirby, right? I've played many of your games. You won't have to worry about dishonesty from me, I assure you."

: "It's nice to meet you again, Chewy. And, thirdly, I'm not exactly familiar with the young miss."

: "Still, it's nice to meet new people. Gives me a chance to get job points in support classes."

: "...Monster, huh? It's been a short while since I was with someone who just up and called whatever new person they met a monster. Wonder what she's doing now."

: "You're not wrong, though. Giga the slime monster, at your service."

He does a little bow, trying to look gentlemanly.

: "And yeah, me and Chewy hung out for a bit some time ago. How're the jobs treating you, Chewy?"

: "Her name's Chara. And by job, I'm referring to this."

He changes his costume again.



: "Thirdly, I'll take silly."

In this thread, imagine that Game Freak came up to you and said "hey, we want to put your idea in the next Pokemon game." Tell the world what you would do with that privilege.

For example, if I got to design a gym, I'd make myself the leader of a Ground type gym in a grid based game. The field gimmick would be that all my trainers have their sight following you no matter whether you walk or run, and it's in an open field so you can't dodge around them unless you use the gimmick, which is kicking sand off the ground into their faces, blinding them temporarily so you can pass by without fighting. You can do this after you beat the trainers as well. The more trainers you kick sand at, the stronger my team will be at the end of the gym, level-wise. It would likely be an early gym, so I'd probably just have a Sandshrew and a Sandslash.

I've got longer (wall of text) descriptions of what I'd do if I led an evil team or the Elite Four, but I'll spare you for the very first post in this thread. Be as verbose and descriptive as you want. You could make an entirely new Pokemon, or design an entire storyline around your evil team, if you want. I did the second one, personally. Get creative!

I admit that this is less a game and more a creative exercise, but I feel like it wouldn't fit in GD.

: "Well, in short, each costume represents a different job, and each job grants me and whoever the Crystals decide should get them different powers. For example,"

: "with this costume I can cast healing magic, like what I did to cure you of that poison. With enough enemies defeated in a certain job, I can bring its abilities to other jobs, mostly at reduced effectiveness."

: "It must've. I don't have a better explanation."

: "That... doesn't usually happen. Did anything strange occur when you lost them?"
