Based on my recent (re-)experience with small RPGs I made… in pure lua.

    I just recently started a playthrough of Wasteland 2 after trying it for like 30 minutes and forgetting about it 10 years ago. And oh boy have I been missing a great game.

    Not exactly a game, but the image you used triggered a fuzzy memory of a pre-photoshop programme I had when I was a kid where you could swirl and smudge and otherwise manipulate an image (pretty sure you couldn’t even upload your own. E: on second thought it might have been an option that I just hadn’t figured out lol, either way I remember generally using the default image) in some very basic ways.

    No way I could recall enough detail to find it again, but I remember it was pretty fun, for like an hour, at absolute most lol

        Good thought, but no.

        I’ve had so much bad luck trying to track down different programmes I grew up with, I think my parents sourced a lot of cheap/free disks and later CDs which seem to have left no trace on the internet, but I’m going to have to give this a look now… 😂

        E: ok, I’ve tried a bunch of different searches and scrolled endless images to see if anything looked familiar, but no luck so far. I’ll probably come back to this and try again periodically like I do with the other lost programmes…

    Disco Elysium. Way more voice lines once it got the Director’s Cut. Such a good game.

      I’m currently thinking about making a similar game with LOVE framework, so I could have some graphics and keypresses detection and maybe even mouse and gamepad support :D

      Maybe I should release a source code for the old game, just as a small curiosity. As a game the program’s not great though, definitely not releasing it anywhere x)
