    I'd wanted to ask you to look at my own (I've only written one so far), but...shoot; you'd probably just tell me I shouldn't have had so many author's notes in it...!

    Please tell us that this project is ongoing! You've put a lot into it, and I hope you come up with a terrific product in the end

    I've not played Undertale, but this sounds really good!

    Most likely they'd get a new voice actor. People's voices in real life sometimes change, after all, so it's not all that unrealistic for a pony's voice to change. That said, one thing they might, just MIGHT do, if they wanted to write in a character death, is have an episode (or more likely a whole story arc) specifically dealing with death, and showing how the other characters react to it.

    Liked the movie, liked the review. But...you should do one with spoilers, go into more detail about what you liked and didn't like.

    Maybe there are sea ponies who were born as sea ponies and who were never hippogryphs in the first place? There's no reason that couldn't be the case. It was surprisingly short to be sure, and maybe even it was an excuse to sell seapony toys. But it showed one of Twilight's darker sides that was really brought out by how morally gray other characters were being: she saw characters outside Equestria being dishonest in response to their own desperate situations, and so she thought she had to do morally questionable things in her own desperation to save Equestria...she really learned the wrong lesson from those experiences. It was sad to watch, but I didn't think it was quite pointless.

    I wore this to the early showing that I managed to make yesterday: https://www.welovefine.com/im-going-to-try-science-11012.html Marked me a brony to other geeks who were seeing It instead...and who needed a jump-start (and turned out to need more than a jumpstart sadly). I seem to have talked them into giving the series premiere of FiM from 2010 a try...!

    I liked it, personally. It seemed like there were some out-of-character moments for Twilight, but in some ways, they made sense...I'm not sure if I should go in-depth about that here, though. The animation being different didn't bother me too much; it was closer to the show's animation than SFM stuff on youtube, and we can enjoy SFM videos just fine, so...you see where I'm going with that

    Personally, I'd prefer to see Hydia and her daughters as arc villains for the series over then being one-time characters in a movie. Though a movie functioning as a finale for them or an introduction of them would be nice.

    Thank you guys SO much for suggesting this! I found a theater in town that's showing it Thursday evening, and I have my seat reserved! Now, if only WeLoveFine can get my order to my apartment before the 5th...!

    Well, I have a church thing on the evening of October 6 that I can't get out of, so I'm not going to be there for the opening night. I'll have to catch it the day after...which is too bad, because I even bought this shirt for the opening night: https://www.welovefine.com/im-going-to-try-science-11012.html

    I know the feeling of working on something for years---I'm working on adding ways for data to flow through the if-statement dialog commands my level editor right now But which of those two options will get you a better chance of finishing sooner? It sounds like switching to HD will basically press the reset button on all the progress you've made so far. And plenty of modern games still use pixels; Sonic Mania's a terrific example.

    Nice, though the bass notes seem to take over the melody around 1:23 or so. I thought the duh-DAAA-DAH duh-DAAA-DAH music was meant to be the melody of SMG2 at that point, but it seemed to be more in the background.

    Weird thought: what if you had higher resolution and then used scaled-up pixelart anyway? It might work, stylistically, and it might save you some time. For the sprites, you're probably a bit too worried: if you can build a base animation, then all you need to do is recolor, flip horizontally as needed, and add in some extras like tails and manes (and even those could be recolored for different background characters) in order to get your animations. All you'd need if you had an all-mare cast is about five base animations: one for up, one for diagonally up, one for the side, one for diagonally down, and one for down. ...Probably this is stuff you know already.

    What I'm doing with my game is making it a parody, at least for now. At least, I keep saying it's a parody, and I have dialog in my game about how it's about the weather factory workers going on strike...I plan to flesh it out a little more as I go; at the moment, I'm still developing it. My understanding is that parodies are protected by fair use laws.

    VERY nice! Loved it, especially how the bass notes interacted with the melody!

    I didn't like Super Bomberman R for the Switch after I bought it. I'd hoped it'd be an interesting adventure-ish game, but...well, first I sucked at it and kept blowing myself up. After I'd learned a little and figured out how to avoid that, I still didn't like it in the end because of how short the story mode was. It's not that it's terrible; I think it's just not something I personally can get much replay value out of. Maybe someone who likes the multiplayer might get more value out of it; I've half a mind to mail it to a friend with a switch, just so someone can enjoy it.

    Jailed for causing a car accident due to the driver's view being blocked by floating hearts

    For the last several years, I've been slowly building a fangame from scratch in Java called Weather Factory Meltdown---it's got an editor that lets you build your own levels, NPCs, and playable characters, and I've been slowly adding features to it for the last few years. For most of that time, I had it hosted on staticvoidgames.com, but that site has been shut down in the last few months---I can't upload my latest version there! Does anyone know of another place where I could host a game that's been built in Java? I'm putting it together as a Runnable JAR File, and it's about 130 MB in size at this point.

    Jailed for hiding contraband under her huge ermine cape! EDIT: I confess to missing Radience with that shot and hitting A.V. ...Am I going to jail for that?
  21. HereComesTom
    (S)he's right! It's the exact same story with me and Weather Factory Meltdown; move at your own pace, and it'll be done when it's done

    I finally found the coolest facial expression, and I'm sticking with it like I'm sticking to the ground!
