Why bother? In a few years he'll be far out from your life. Also, if you need motivation by members of this community, I'm unsure whether you should really make that custom story. If you want to do it, then do it. If you're expecting to keep being pushed by people to do it expecting compliments all along the way(even if deserved), don't bother. In that case it'll bother you more than do any good.

I'm just being realistic. Things are as they are, not as you want them to be and whoever tries to counter argument this is just fooling themselves or not thinking about it well enough.

They aren't really pushing me. I'd like to use the word "support".

In this case, everybody seems to be showing some support and I really appreciate that.
And yeah... I kind of agree with Robosprog.
I don't mean to be bias though. But this whole relationship thing isn't much of the topic here right now.

If you need inspiration, read some books, or even comics. That helps me. You can also think about other horror games and how they brought the story and jumpscares. Did you know that the Dead Space developers watched tons of horror movies and looked at photos of car crash victims to get an idea for the monsters and the jumpscares? Do the same! (Okay, maybe not looking at car crash victims...) Get inspiration from somewhere. Maybe something you like to do gets you a great idea for the map. Example; In physics class I accidently broke some boxes. This got me the idea of a path, that is blocked by wooden boxes, and you need to use a hammer on it to destroy them to move on. This isn't a great example; I know, but it's something. Oh, here another tip, ALWAYS. MAKE. BACKUPS. Mediafire is where it's at.

However, I don't see why telling your age is relevant.

This is off-topic but I believe L4D2 did that, not dead space o.0

L4D2 didn't have any jumpscares, seeing as it's not a horror game.

RE: Angelina Stilson - flamez3 - 06-27-2012

I don't remember me saying anything about jumpscares...

And in the developer commentary they said for the victims they used car crash victims as zombies (or the basis for zombies), but they decided to take it off because of how realistic it was.

EDIT: I can see how you thought I meant jump scares :p I was talking about the car crash victims part Big Grin

Mind also that you will use Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs assets and shit Smile
So if you're gonna let some space for something more steampunk it's better Smile
