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. >_> |

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

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. |

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. |
