I've been writing a lot these past couple of weeks, so I drew some moments from the Forbidden Beddy Bye World and Aiml World Eventures. Also, a couple of plans for rewriting the Muko Inc. Delivery Eventure.

Mesay is a researcher at the Spiral Yeti who is very dedicated to her work. She's the lead researcher on Project Dino-X, which involves experiments on dinosaurs. She was raised in the lab, so she was sheltered and brainwashed into staying loyal to the Spiral Yeti Order. Mesay fears breaking the rules and standing up against authority because of her upbringing. As a member of the Marnian family, she also possesses medical knowledge, which further supports her research methods.

I recorded a video of myself playing through my recently finished game for the RPG Maker Game Jam, #No_Hacks! If anyone would prefer to watch the game rather than play it, this is a chance for you to experience the story and unique gameplay mechanics for my project.

With my RPG Maker Game Jam project wrapped up, I'm back to posting game dev blogs about last year's project, Nay Saga.
In this post, I talk about how I made some of the additional game pieces, the logo, box, etc., and the first real playtest that I did with my friends.

Flapper Cakeboy is an energetic creature who loves sweets. He's one of Brutus' Wings so he's often seen as one of the outcasts in Tag World. Flapper is an awkward creature, but he tries his best to connect with his other fellow Wings. Though he's of the Candlick species, he grew up in AV World and has no close connections with his ancestors from the Timeless Abyss.
