Lappy Love
Aug. 4th, 2009 09:09 amSo because of my new lappy I have gotten to play with RPG Maker VX, which is the newest version of the RPG Maker line and they actually made it in English. I used to play around with RPG2k and I think RPG2k3 but they went away with the old PC computer as there is no Mac version. Parallels finally works correctly (helps when you have an actually compatible computer for that) so I can also play Dreamfall (hopefully I got past the point where it usually crashed Windows).
But now that I got RPGVX I really need to get back into playing around with pixels and figuring out what, if anything, I want to do with the system. I should probably just make a cheesy simple demo game first, but what I really kind-of want to do is make my Furry Story idea into a game. Unfortunately it means I probably need to learn some Ruby on Rails in order to script some things the way I want (and learn how to do really good pixel art :P ). For me in general though I just wanted to play with it and have fun with it cause I loved playing with RPG2k back in the day.
In other news I have been going back to the gym, and been bringing my lunch on most days which has made me eat a lot better but still not as much as I'd like to go. Last week I went to the gym every other day and it seems like this week might be the same (as I have to go to a ballgame after work). In truth there's nothing wrong with going every other day but would prefer to go everyday and try to make a consistent workout. I only usually go 20 minutes on the elliptical anyway but when I get tired just doing that it means I need to do it more often. Is till need to eat better in general though. It's still so hard to cut out foods that I love but I'm slowly working them down. I'm trying to stop all drinking of soft drinks, usually only had some every so often recently but stopped a long time ago because of kidney stones, can't stop getting those Mexican glass bottles cokes... so much better than regular US cans or plastic bottles. Otherwise I mostly drink water anyway.
So I guess I will get back to work. Laters.
