<2023-04-02T05:41:39.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: Dan said you are a programmer?
<2023-04-02T05:43:12.000Z> hazlin@nicecrew.digital: I am indeed, though it depends on the level of game autist you need xD I'm like a game autist in progress. If you need something that I can accomplish with three.js or pygames or godot, then I may be able to help.
<2023-04-02T05:43:42.000Z> hazlin@nicecrew.digital: I guess unity is also an option for linux these days, but I've been sticking clear of UE4 and Unity, because of their licensing 
<2023-04-02T05:46:07.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: I have no idea what three things mean, lol. And it doesn't necessarily have to be unity or UE4. Whatever would work. You see, a friend and I are working on a game to try and break into the industry on our own terms, but we are just writers, the least useful of all pretentious nerds. We've been working on the story for this game and we really need someone who can do the technical side. A huge bonus would be if you are also an artist/writer/whatever as our third writer had to drop out due to personal stuff going on.
<2023-04-02T05:49:28.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: Do you have a discord account? And if so, would you be interested in talking with me and my cowriter tomorrow?
<2023-04-02T05:55:31.000Z> hazlin@nicecrew.digital: Sure, I'd be happy to talk, I've got a discord, but loath the company xD Been using https://meet.jit.si/ for my meetings where possible. I'm in UTC-5, so I am not sure what tomorrow means to you xDNot a writer, but learning to be an artist, honestly that has been the hardest part of making my own game.
<2023-04-02T05:56:13.000Z> hazlin@nicecrew.digital: If you've got a clear vision for how your game will look, and play, then you are ahead of the game
<2023-04-02T05:58:09.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: My cowriter is a bit more normie than us and we don't pay for shit on there, so we mostly stick to discord. My ID on there is Satellite-Head#0369, and we have a general idea of what we want, but we've refrained from going too deep cuz we don't have a programmer and we wanna make sure we avoid any feature creep type stuff.
<2023-04-02T05:58:46.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: If you have any art I can look at, too, I can help with that, as I am also a comic book writer and can give you some constructive criticism.
<2023-04-02T06:00:17.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: As for how the game will generally play, we know we want pre-rendered backgrounds to save on resources and allow us to compete graphically and also cuz we are both fans of old school survival horror games, but we don't want to do nostalgia bait, but instead, we want to actually continue the tradition.
<2023-04-02T06:00:59.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: We are also fairly far along in the story, but we also know that there will need to be changes in order to accommodate with the actual game development.
<2023-04-02T06:04:39.000Z> hazlin@nicecrew.digital: sent you an invite on discord, had to recover the account, and then change the profile to something other than my irl name lol
<2023-04-02T06:05:05.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: I understand, lol. I just accepted it and messaged you on there.
<2023-05-09T18:33:08.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: I may have found a guy who can help with the backgrounds. I asked if he could give us an example of his work and he said "give me a background".
<2023-05-09T18:33:45.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: Specifically, he said: "Yeah I can help with the environments. Why don't you give me a background to do and I'll do it and send it to you to see if it is up to what you want."
<2023-05-09T20:09:14.000Z> hazlin@nicecrew.digital: sounds reasonable
<2023-05-09T20:54:39.000Z> The_Vile_Delinquent: Alright, let's see what he can do. I sent him the screenshot of your shack.
