New title screen for Stagnant Gold!!
The coolest thing ever I want to add is several illustrated cutscenes to complement the very minimalist graphic style of the game! 🤩
Inspired by OFF, Omori, In Stars and Time, and the likes! 💜

i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!
Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.
Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

I thought people would roll their eyes at me using Rpg Maker MV for Stagnant Gold, but I've seen so many good games on RPG Maker lately?
Beloved Rapture? 8-Bit Adventures? Don't Look Outside? Omori? In Stars and Time? All amazing games.

I wanna be petty and put a warning on the Steam page and in the boot splash screens that says:
"WARNING. This game uses PRONOUNS such as "He, She, They" to refer to characters and NPCs in the game, please refund the game if basic language infuriates you, ****" 😆

I think they'd be good friends (in therapy).
Now I just need to find a way to contact @mortisghost.bsky.social to ask if I can add The Batter as a secret superboss in Stagnant Gold.

Serious question for other #gamedev, I have a card mini-game (not Blackjack) where you can buy tokens (not for gambling) to play the "token game" (not Blackjack) to win tokens to exchange for items...
Do I have to put a warning of some sort? 🤔
