Welcome To Adam Core

Name’s Beck. Aspiring game developer. Also drowning in stress. But at least there’s a dog who loves me despite all my dumbassary.

Progress update July 10, 2020 4:47AM

None.

Zilch.

Honey-I-dont-know-what-I-have-but-it-ain’t-jack.

I mean, I have parts of the game’s story written out but it’s fragmented and written as if you’re reading text from boxes. Which may be helpful in the far off future when I get to adding the text but now it’s just confusing since I keep forgetting what has already happened and what event am I trying to develop the story of the game to. Plus as I try to build upon certain characters I feel myself stuck in this cookie cutter, one trick pony, I’m only good for one single moment in the plot then I’m gone forever type character that once I have my developmental arc moments they become a piece of cardboard that is forgotten about or become too useful to where every problem is solved by me.

I’m going to go all the way to the beginning and write it as if i was writing a story for a semester long class, but without the pressures of classmates having to read through a billion rough drafts.

So what the fuck does this mean for y’all who are still here because ya forgot you followed me, I became a blog under your radar, or you are somehow interested in watching someone try to build a game/portfolio in her spare time? Most likely you’ll actually learn about the world I’ve been building and telling you very obscure facts about/talking about scrapped concepts that make absolutely no sense out of context. Hey, you’ll probably even get some dialogue snippets again that are scrapped. Of course, y’all will get the actual story and probably character introductions as they are re-established.

All I can say is that during this time, I can only hope that my favorite cousin will stay safe and that he does not get mixed up in all of this becoming another victim to this shit. If he does, then I don’t know what I’ll do, but I know I won’t be bottling everything in

Is using hexadecimal for a puzzle overused yet?

[proudtobeadumbass]

Gonna have a very stupid one where you gotta convert from hexadecimal to numbers, then turn that into some gibberish that you gotta decode with a cipher. It’ll probably be the least liked puzzle, and honestly, I’m 100% okay with that.

[proudtobeadumbass]

100% forgot about the cipher so now I’m rewriting the puzzle because the other character actually solves the hexadecimal shit for you and all that was left was the numbers that accidentally translated directly to the answer.

Yay more work! And it’s kind of funny typing these out because y’all have no idea what the hell im talking about so this ain’t affecting anyone but me yet.

And to be honest all I have is about uhhh 38 different notes in a folder on my phone detailing cutscenes, puzzles, character profiles, and stupid shit I think of. I’ll admit I’m afraid to put any of them up here because I keep going back, rehearsing the lines, revising little details that seem unnatural to me.

Should probably make a tag for project stuff, but that means I also have to name it soon don’t I?

[proudtobeadumbass]

Probably forgot to mention, using Adam Core in the tags for things pertaining to my pet project. It ain’t the game’s name but a name that is important for plot reasons.

Participants

Alright, got the cast of participants names down:

In order from how easy they were to name to hardest we got, along with personal nicknames I’ve been referring to them by which may or may not make sense in context:

Also might just make this a “master post” or whatever that term is so people can go to posts that give development details about each character. Because some have already changed quite a bit from original ideas.

“Eve” - Group mom post trauma

Rei Gully - F

Sam Guine - My tall murder child

Dani Wujrell - Protag

Nico Luch- Chaotic Dumbass

Ivy Reyes - Small angel

Wyre Eubine - soupattheclothingstore

Cinny Pastel - Too Positive to live

Jasmine Sully - Chaotic Group Mom

Quinn Sawte - Boi

Christine Mark - Heals plz

Matt Warner - Oh yeah he exists

Mofeed Riley - Tall Man

A little peek at introduction scene, it will most likely go through many revisions as it develops. Hoping I can keep the “long walks on the beach” line or at least come up with something better.

Shout out to all my followers who looked at my absolute disaster of a blog and still hit that follow button.

[proudtobeadumbass]

Y’all, writing emotional death scenes just rip your own heart out. Like god damn, I’m already bawling because the two characters were loosely based on the bond my brother and I have. And yet I still don’t know what to call this damn thing, maybe it’s just something that’ll come to me when it does, can’t force an idea to come or the urge to change it will be constant.

I have lost my fucking college ID card, which wouldn’t be as bad if I didn’t have a package I was really excited to rip into today but I can’t because I need said card to be able to obtain the package and re-enter my side of the dormitory. So I’ve basically locked myself in the building until I find it. Will update with whatever dumbassary takes place.

[proudtobeadumbass]

Update 1: I found my mouse that I thought my family’s neighbors stole, good thing I didn’t actually accuse them yet or it would be 100% awkward since they had just moved in with a baby.

It has also been recommended like 11 hours ago that I try to think in the same mindset I had when I last saw my card. Which is hard because all I remember doing last night was diamond painting and cutting up those weird croc button things.

[proudtobeadumbass]

Update 2: FOUND THE FUCKER. it was in my hoodie, a hoodie that I used to wear daily. I’m an idiot. Goodnight

You know, life would be somewhat easier if I could pull up a status screen to see what is going on in my body and how long that shit will last or if I actually need to go to the hospital. Because I don’t trust my body nor my instincts on debating if I should definitely seek medical attention, tough it out, or treat myself with whatever knowledge I have. 60% of the time I’m toughing it out, 35% actually using knowledge I’ve gained from life, 5% being driven to the hospital because everyone thinks I should go but I don’t think it’s that bad where we need the ambulance to pick me up

I don’t care what they’re already being paid or if you have to cut funding from the already over-funded sports programs, academic advisors need to be paid more because holy shit do they care for you. I think my advisor could tell I was extremely nervous about if I was still on the path to graduate within 4 years (since I have about a year and a half left) she fucking mapped out the courses for the rest of my time and did the math where it turns out I have 7 free credit hours to do whatever on top of finishing my general education and my major specific courses.
