Another test...

Fun fact: that test slide's character art happens to contain only fourteen colors.

Y'know who else uses only fourteen colors?

I just realized if I go with 2D characters, only using the 3D for blocking and such, I wouldn't be limited to the assets I can find like textures, clothes, accessories, hair...

You know how the cartoons in King's Quest 7 (1994) were done by Animation Magic, who also did CD-I Zelda (1993) and I.M. Meen (1995)?

I've been pondering how anachronistic the cutscenes in #TheDatingPool look. Sure, 3D pre-rendered backgrounds are one thing but the characters are 3D too...

Now, the cutscenes in my game aren't *animated* like I.M. Meen and Zelda are, all you get is some limited animation cos I'm just one guy making a point-n-click adventure game that's *supposedly* from late 1993, early 1994.

But still! Just as an example, here's a single slide from an early cutscene in my game, next to an overdraw. One looks better, perhaps, but the other looks maybe more... time-appropriate?

@foone Have I got news for you.

Y'know what? Fuck this. #Godot experiments are canceled. Modern 3D game development systems were a mistake.

Or I'm just old.

@foone @mhoye Femboy Factorio :3

@foone @mhoye ... in the game, right?

@mhoye @foone

@foone Not a *children's* book character, no...

So I've been told a while back that among at least part of the ScummVM devs, I am known as "the cat".

Makes me wonder if there's any other places they know me by such a name.

Cry Havok, and let slip the dogs of middleware!

I know many things, and yet it's like I know nothing at all.

Not speaking philosophically, just feeling like a complete fucking dumbass a whole lot of the time.
