I can handle most formats and work under most limitations, but I'm still learning how to improve.

probably programming, since I currently suck at spriting and music making, but hey I'm getting there slowly. I guess I'm decent at stories too

You are our master!! Group: Members Posts: 1419 Member No.: 2765 Joined: 5-October 06 Status: (0d)	Honestly, I'm just "ok" at all of these. So I guess... Game design? I only say that because my game concepts are plentiful, but almost never come to fruition. The only game I've been somewhat successful with is one that I barely planned at all, surprisingly. I can make small sprites, but when it gets to the point where I'd have to be making a lot of detailed sprites, I wouldn't have the motivation to do it. (not that I wouldn't be able to.) Large things like backgrounds/title screens/whatever I can do, but I don't really like to do them. I've made music in the past, and given this thing: , I can't be too horrible. But I'm really a complete amateur who can't even read music or make anything besides short jingles. Programming, for me, is usually a matter of nailing the basics and sticking with them. So I could probably program pretty much anything, provided I could figure out if certain functions or whatnot exist in the language I'm using. It just wouldn't be very efficient. So I think my biggest problem is just a short attention span. This post has been edited by ChaosEmerl on Oct 21 2009, 05:30 AM -------------------- hi im ted i have a ref

Good Night MFGG 2.0 Group: Members Posts: 1010 Member No.: 4850 Joined: 19-December 07 Status: (0d)	Game Design, I guess. Almost all the time I use a super basic engine with almost no features, so I can change it however I want to make a completly new game. Or I just do the engine from scratch. When some sprite doesn't exist or I need to make it, I'll make it. If it is too hard, I'll improvise and edit from other sprites. I'm also good at designing characters and that stuff, probably level design too. Sound and music is where I fail. And I'm good at programming overall. -------------------- Click here if you like Megaman Luishi (Main character) Necro Jlhgomez Some furry team stuff ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ People who has drawn me: Jazz Yak (Jlhgomez) Razor SupaStixDude Gato YoshiFan GM Joe Inky (Boo, Secret Santa)
