full title: "i asked my boyfriend to name the game but he couldn't think of a title"
rpgmaker xp is/was free on steam so i got it. i asked my partner to name it (it took me a fair bit to figure out how to change the title image)
i remember getting the trial for xp back in highschool, i did not understand a thing
i still do not understand anything
this software is uhm, well i think i'm getting the hang of it! it took me a while to get an event working and it's because confirm is mapped to 'C' instead of 'Z' for some god-awful reason
well, it's cool to see there's a script editor, not that i'll be using it a lot
this is gonna be horribly disorganized, just like me working with this
i changed configs, Z - Confirm reigns supreme. also ig a benefit for this software being really old is the abundance of add-ons like these scripts from a person called blizzard, which allowed me to change the configs in the first place. there's some interesting stuff here too but i think i might stick with the base customizing first
charming art and lots and lots of words, yessir. well, i don't think it'll be too hard to do once you get the hang of it though, most of the things here seem to actually be self-explanatory now that i take the time to look at them. oh also the events thing looks super fun
i misinterpreted the "Event Touch" button as "when a player touches the event" but it's probably "when an event touches this event" since there's player touch already (obvious in hindsight)
anyway it works!
this is more a systems/software test if anything, but also i kinda want it to be fun at least so??? we'll see where this goes
