      Love me some paper mario, love me some kirby nuff said. Megaman legends would always freak me out that dungeon music was so odd, main reason I never got close to finishing the legend series

        I really love the look of the Legends games, they’re kinda janky but I have a huge soft spot for that low-poly look and I played them as a kid and got used to the jank

          That’s rough sadness while I never got into the series I do remember the anger from capcom finally announcing no MML3. Ngl I got pretty annoyed with how often capcom had them little serve bots and tronne bonne in other games when they were never gonna do anything with the series.

            Maybe I gotta just LeArN 2 cOdE and make the games I want myself

            I have like 3 game ideas I think would be cool and the only part of development I’m even slightly knowledgeable about is the audio production stuff

            One would be a mod of one of my fav games so once I get a handle on its engine, a lot of it can reuse existing assets but I’d want to write a script and get voice acting and an original score so I’d probably have to learn to use LLMs for voice synthesis instead of hiring a whole cast for something I wouldn’t be able to sell, and find plugins for orchestral instruments to score it in a DAW pirate-jammin

              Hell yeah get those creative juices flowing and make something for you. I know I bought old books on coding that sat around but honestly I could never get into it as much as I like. Plenty of games started as mods or romhacks so seems as a good place to start as any to learn.

                What’s modding etiquette for using assets other modders made? Just reach out to them for approval? There’s some cool stuff already made that I’d like to use to use but don’t want to piss off anyone by just taking their assets and repurposing them

                  I’ve not clue tbh but I imagine giving credit where it’s due might suffice, feel like most stuff on github has instructions and permissions. I imagine most of them already deal with assest flippers on steam so at least talking to them might put you ahead of a lot of other people/
