Game News Bloom - "Action adventure with a dose of RPG" on Kickstarter

[Davaris]

I got the impression he is an artist with no team mates and I know how that feels. He has done some excellent art design and if he gets the two thirds he lacks, he might well make a good game.

Still can't get it WTF is it doing on our newsfeed, though.

If you have to be butthurt about something, be butthurt about those crazily talented people who does several things brilliantly in the time it would take you to become average at doing a single one of them. And there is nothing fair or unfair about it. You just have to take it like a man and accept that some are simply more gifted than others.

Where are all these people and what games did they make?

Sure there's people who are very talented from the getgo but if they aren't making games it's irrelevant. Most people have to work to do anything, and it's much different to get a working knowledge of something and become a master.

You seem to think you simply spend a couple months and BAM! you are a programmer and artist of superb skill. If you probe you'll find most of these great self taugh artists and programmers were doing artsy and computery stuff nearly since birth. They didn't decide one day to learn and have awesome results.

So what is the point of all this? It's like the rantings of a demented homeless man. And if it's so easy then why can't he do the programming, then? None of this even makes any sense.

I realize the guy is an artist but he is pretty good one, and unless you can point out your own art that's better and took 5 minutes then I have to say you just don't know what you are talking about. An adventure game with RPG elements is a lot different story than really complicated RPG with every feature but the kitchen sink thrown in. It's been done by people who weren't real programmers many times, and there's also the crazy idea you can say HIRE someone to help and maybe that's why people run these kickstarters, to get the help they need.

This is why I have you on ignore: for spewing bullshit I did not say and quite the contrary, in fact. And the rest of your post is no different.

Back to ignoring and nothing of value is lost.

You said you don't need to go to school for either and it takes a couple months to learn. Obviously this isn't right or we'd have hundreds more games.

My worthless 2 cents into the ring of fire.

You have about 10 to 20 seconds in a video to hook someone into it.
The pitch video has like 30+ seconds on Bloom and then into some talking (zzzzzzz).

I didn't make it past 40 seconds.

Now watch this which is straight into it.



30 seconds in baby and my blood is pumping and its on.

So this is a 'discussion' with Moribund?

How quaint, i ignored him when he had 10 posts... or maybe it was the avatar. Custom avatars evaluation is a good moron detector.
Seems like i'm avant-guarde in this.
Maybe i should set up a RSS feed 'morons i have ignored today'.

Yes, you are a very stable person if you can't handle ten posts from someone without throwing a fit.

This sudden appearance of ego makes me fear for your sanity, SCO.

Don't become Trash.

When someone gets ignored by both janjetina and vots (two wildly different personalities in the codex, without even open political biases), then it's a sign of things to come. Of course, i had already ignored him then and only found out on both threads by janjetina and vots announcing it. I'm just piling on.

BTW, you people who make it a point of not ignoring anyone need to have your head checked. The codex is overflowing with shit personalities that never produce anything but shit and it only gets worse the more of them there are.

They can't handle the truths! Both of them were ranting up quite the storm whereas I remained calm so don't see how that can be my fault.

I don't make a point to ignore no one, I just don't ignore unless someone seems to be hopeless to deal with and posts a lot in threads I read.

 

[Studio Fawn]

Just dropping by to say hi :3 Things are still going strong over here, just been pretty busy doing what I do.

And the shit posters (or those that have moments of shit-posting) are of such a great number that they're white noise between the better posts. There's no point in ignoring what you ignore instinctively.

Good for you. Just keep at it and who knows, another 3 years and you'll make artist. Say, would you be interested in hiring our local artist/coder extraordinare Prosper a.k.a Pizzahutlover a.k.a Cakester? He's currently applying for work at Bioware, but most of us feel his innovative genius would be squandered with a mainstream company like that. Perhaps you can put him to good use? Check out his very own section if you're interested.

Why are you still working on this? It's clearly not getting funded. It was on kickstarter to begin with because no publisher wants to touch your project with a ten foot pole, so unless you don't really need the kickstarter money I don't see a reason for you to continue.


Fake edit:
Protip: don't use white as a matte background colour when making gifs.

 

[Grunker]

What a petty troll, Jack.

I'll put you in the newsfeed if you're not careful.

Haha, Bloom is definitely moving forward (I can't go into details at the moment, but I think by next week I'll be allowed to make an announcement about it). Kickstarter does far more than just potentially raise money ~_~ Who would give up because their kickstarter didn't work ? o.O o.O I have put way too much work into this to just go "oh well" (the work I have done on Bloom is worth a bit ~_~)


Also, since I am doing these today ~_~ here is another :D Chop

 

[EG]

Why give up when you can restart at a more reasonable and obtainable scope?

 

[Cool name]

I would play this merely for the art style.

 

[Piety]

The art and style on this really are quite lovely.

 

[Marsal]

Studio Fawn Your art is very good. You just need a thicker skin or better posting discipline. Good luck with your project.
