Hey there, folks! I know I've been away for awhile and I apologize. It's been a hectic couple of weeks finishing up a few details for the game and squash bugs (although I know they're still possibly lurking in there somewhere!) So far, I have an Alpha (playable, showing off systems, assets, etc) for consumption. … Continue reading Monstructs ALPHA is 100% OFF TODAY!!
Welp! I entered into the IGMC 2018, but because the RPG Maker MV engine has this INTERESTING (to put it in the most PG way) bug of removing USED files when the exclude unused files box, I got DQ'd for lack of files. To be quite honest, I was FURIOUS! I LITERALLY took a month … Continue reading I get Engine Screwed!
Hi folks! I know I've been incognito for a while. I do want to say that I've done some more on the game and it's fairly close the first BETA release.

Over the weekend, as I was finishing up the mapping for the game, I had a brilliant idea! Well, two actually. I decided to add a more visual component for two of the more important gameplay mechanics: Maker Ranks and Monstructs Making.

It's been recently announced on the RPG Maker web forum that NINTENDO has decided to put the kibosh on the Pokemon Essentials, a customized set of scripts used by fans to make their own fan games that started back in the days of RPG Maker XP (circa 2006). A lot of good games were made … Continue reading Nintendo SHUTS DOWN RPG Maker’s POKEMON fan game ecosystem!
This was a decision that was hard to make, but something deemed NECESSARY! After kicking the idea around in my head for weeks (months?), I decided to cut a feature from my game-- the Battle Tiles System! It's was designed to add some fun and variety to arena battles in the Grand Circle. It throws … Continue reading Trimming the FAT! (Memento Mori)
Took some time away from graphic work to make a few needed tweaks to the Menu/UI format thanks to some help from a script and support over at CHAOS PROJECT FORUMS!

Underwater World Secret Catacombs Decisions Monsters Underground Have fun! … Continue reading Underworlds and Secret Passages
It may come as a surprise, but this project as been going on for many years (more than a DECADE, actually).

Here's what I've worked on in the 1st … Continue reading Blasts from the PAST (or something like that)
I've been doing A LOT of revamping and reworking on many important mechanics in the game.

First, there's the Caste Selection Survey that helps choose your initial Caste (this will … Continue reading Game Mechanic Footage!

Hope you enjoy and stay tuned for more! … Continue reading More Mapping!
It's been a crazy couple months! I've been dealing with sick family members and a low cash flow at the moment (if you'd like to help CLICK HERE!) has slowed production down. Plus, to be honest, I felt kinda down, due to not alot of folks really showing interest in this project. But I … Continue reading Where have I been and New Alpha 1.2 Update!

Earlier this year, around mid- to late-March actually, I decided to finally finish my game Monstructs and set a date for the Demo to be out by Early Q3 this year. Sadly, I had to work and take care of family needs and that really slowed down my workflow (although I still think I did … Continue reading How Missing two Deadlines HELPED MY GAME!
Let's face it! All of us game developers want to make something that will knock our players socks off and make a great living at the same time. Who wouldn't want that? But it isn't something that canbe done easily! How can you go about doing that? What kind of game can/should you make and … Continue reading The Art of Making your (GAMING) Dreams Come True…
