Imported a reference layer into Aseprite and traced over that only to find out after I was done that the reference layer was in the incorrect dimension, so all the pixeling I did had to be scrapped since it was sprited at the wrong size

Prayer of the Faithless is a character-driven RPG that follows two friends torn apart in a world set just before the apocalypse. Switch between their perspectives as they are forced to decide between their friendship and what they each believe is right.

4. Guilty pleasure game is Shadow the Hedgehog. The game itself had some neat ideas like alternate story routes and vehicles/gunplay, but it was so unapologetically edgy and tryhard that it looped back around to being fun. Hearing Sonic swear will never not be funny.

3. I only heard about Stella Glow once by chance on some random youtuber's channel and never again, so that's my pick for underrated game. It's a strategy RPG with a great cast of characters with pacing that would make a Persona fan feel right at home
And that soundtrack is a blessing for the ears.

2. Tough choice since there are a lot of characters I love for different reasons, but I'm giving the medal to Jade Curtis from Tales of the Abyss. His sarcastic tone and personality was always fun to watch, but it was this line that won me over:

1. My first video game was Sonic 2 for the Genesis. I was too young to understand how video games worked back then and couldn't beat it without cheats, but now I'll always have a soft spot for the blue blur.
Also, debug mode was fire.

Spent today building a system that gives NPCs an hourly schedule to follow, as well as conditionally changing costumes based on weather and season. None of this was done through event commands.
