Truth be told, this is probably my worst semester of college yet. One test after another, I’ve been getting less than acceptable grades consistently. I’m not sure what’s wrong since the material isn’t really that hard (physics 2, physical chem, molecular biology, though biochem is hard). Maybe I’m just not retaining the material like I used to, or maybe I’m just not reading the questions carefully. Either way, it’s disheartening which makes me wonder if I can continue to edit the doujins that have been piling up in our backlog. Well, an ounce of study is an ounce of prevention, so we’ll see for now.
In other news, I’m helping out with an RPG Maker project. I can’t say what it’s about exactly, but you can take a guess. To be of more use in other areas besides development, I’m trying to learn some stuff about the program which in this case is RPG Maker VX. So far, all I’ve really learned is how to touch up images and enhance them visually. Heh, doesn’t sound too different from what I already do. Anyway, samples follow which are not part of the project:

Sprites and pictures come from Tao’s site.


HAH, that’s a lovely “Hello World” output~
From what I’ve read of it, RPG Maker VX doesn’t seem able to do grid-based Tactical RPG combat so the Touhou Wars project cannot use it. Ah well, we’ve all agreed we’ll just stick with story writing and conceptual designs until we’ve settled down more in life before we think about how to actually make it reality.
