I have a perfectly fine day up until I learn that the fangame I submitted a character for has been cancelled after 2 years of work.

Two years of work? Fangames are canned so often.

Yeah, but this one was a good one.

Technically, it was a fangame of a fangame. >_>

I like it when that happens. Was it Mario based?

Topicgeddon was a KWRPG fangame, which is a Kirby fan-RPG.

I really need to lurk in the Kirby fan community more. >_>

Big group projects like that tend to die if the leader doesn't know what they're doing. Because everybody's doing it just as a labor of love, it dies a horrible, painful death if even a few people lose interest. I'm afraid BoD might suffer the same fate, but I trust ? Block not to let that happen.

I think the main problem with making a fangame is, since most, if not all, of the people working on it are minors, they have to deal with school for most of the year. This is why I'm putting the main development time of BoD in the summer, when most of us are free from the prison of education. >_>

Good. Also, I'm considering buying Game Maker, so I could help out with things other than plot/dialogue (possible dungeon design, since I'm a half-decent level designer), and I'll be able to implement the dialogue myself instead of making Joshamuffin copy it all down.
