Hi guys! An update!

[tahbikat]

Hello everyone! Some of you may remember me and some may not.


I've made plenty friends and acquaintances through Mysidia so I wanted to pop in after all this time and give an update on my endeavors and possibly reconnect.


Now let me say, HoF you are great and I love that you provided this framework for people, but since the script seemingly isn't being maintained anymore I've obviously abandoned it. It turned out to be a good thing though, as now I'm developing a video game! The game is actually inspired from egg adopt sites in a way, and in other ways inspired from Minecraft, Terraria, and Stardew Valley! The engine I'm using is GameMakerStudio 2, it's kind of like Unity or Unreal except for 2d games. If anyone has questions, fire away!

If anyone would like to follow my progress, you can find me at these places and also join my discord!

Here's a video and preview of what I have so far. It's in very early alpha.

Anyways, I've missed a lot of you! How is everyone doing?
I probably won't stay active on Mysidia, but I did want to just post here and reconnect like I said. I'll probably hang around for a few days and vanish again haha. I am focusing on staying active on a select few sites, and that by itself is hard enough since I spend a lot of time coding and designing my game!

Hi hi! I'm so happy to see that so many of you are still around! Just wanted to drop by and say hi! Edit: Congrats on your new game, Tahbikat! A lot of folks here might not know it, but you've helped me grow immeasurably too! Let me know if there's anything I can ever help with!
