I'm not sure I know what you're referring to by "Handy versions", but just to be clear: Sonic Mania isn't a fangame. It's an official Sonic game, every bit as legal and (presumably) part of the canon as Sonic the Hedgehog 2 or Sonic Adventure or anything else. It was largely created by a person...

Quick overview for those who are unfamiliar: GB Studio is game maker software that creates simple adventure games in four-color monochrome Game Boy style, and actually outputs those games as functional Game Boy ROMs (for an emulator, etc.). I've played with it briefly. It's a neat idea for...

Er, isn't the escape rope already "dig as an item"? Pretty sure they work in all the same ways/places. Nice to see a plug-and-play script for this, though!

My absolute favorite pokémon is giratina! (Preferably altered forme over origin forme, but origin forme is okay, too.) I'm not entirely sure why; I've always liked it that little bit more than dialga and palkia, but that was about it. I guess it's probably a result of an old fanfic I was...

Grah. I'm still fighting with these things, so they're very much unfinished, but I'd like to get something posted before it stops being the 21st in my timezone, so eh. The OP says this is a place for feedback on these designs, right? Maybe some of y'all can help me. *punches artwork*...

Entering "nidoran f" and "nidoran m" worked for me, yeah. 151/151 and mewtwo, and the first quiz didn't load for me, either. Clicking the "Start quiz" button does nothing. I'm getting the impression that you created/helped create this website, @Wafflecakes. Is that true? If not, whoops...

Ah, well. Looks like I won't be making it after all. Still, it's close enough to done (as done as something can be in ten or so days, anyway) that I'll probably be able to post it in the regular forums tomorrow or Saturday; it could, at the very least, do with some more beta-testing, if anyone...

Go for it! I'm getting a really late start, too, for a cavalcade of reasons that are mostly my fault oops, but if you've got an idea that you like and can buckle down it's still possible to get a lot done even with the deadline approaching! Will I make it in time? No idea, especially since I'm...

I've never played a game with a "speed-up button" (and don't make LPs or watch very many, either), so help me out here. What exactly is it that these buttons are traditionally "speeding up"? The framerate of the entire game (as I believe you could do with the doduo/dodrio modes if playing GB...

Hm. Hard to say without knowing the usual dimensions you use for your artwork, but these days in MediBang I usually work in 2500x2500px square canvases at 200dpi, and my lineart brush is set to 6px. I may make it a little thinner (~4px) for fine details, or a little thicker (~8px) when I'm...

Don't forget that the Game Jam's true point isn't to "win" anything or to create something nearly perfectly polished in a month's time. It's for learning new things about game making, it's for trying new things without worrying about the stress of finishing a huge project that has to rival the...

For what it's worth, I'm not sure it's always "how important/unimportant is this content compared to the main story" that's the main deciding factor in a postgame. Obviously that's something to consider, and I agree there's nothing wrong with, say, saving "The End" and the credit roll until some...

Well, there are already trainers with specific items or other special attributes based on their classes, like scientists using X-items or the breeders in BW2 being rematchable because they want to keep training their young pokémon. Seems like a fairly reasonable progression to me! Granted, for...

I've still been keeping up with this, mostly! Day 4 is still in need of tweaking and I still want to punch 9, 11, 12 and 13 until they stop looking like random scribbles and start looking like things, but I've just been lazy about posting the others, is all! Big art dump incoming, then:

Days 8 and 10. No day 9 for now because the line I'm trying to redesign is pain and I want to throw something and aaaaargh.
