I made a little mistake earlier when re-making this account (I actually lost my old one to a tumblr error, will talk about THAT one later), and made my Game Dev blog the main blog- Hopefully this will correct it! I switched both their names around and now this is the account's main blog! And the game dev blog is still the same URL, I just had to switch them a little bit, so you should still be able to find it- And if you're having trouble, I'm going to reblog this post with the other blog- So it should be easier that way!

Inspiration for the game

This totally wasn't the first thing I was gonna do when I made this blog, but I thought of this and decided it'd be way better to start with-

Cernos was, originally, a DnD character I made a long, long time ago, before I started making his story into a game. I left most of his backstory a mystery, but most of what I had written is already in the game!

He didn't get used at all, and the people I was playing with went their separate ways pretty fast, which left me feeling unfulfilled about him as a character.

On top of all that, when I was a kid, I noticed a big lack of RPGs and games that had furry or scalie characters- And being a furry myself, I couldn't find something fun to play and enjoy that had character designs I liked as much!

Eventually, these two desires culminated in the thought, of me just! Making this entire game myself- Because then, there'd be another game out there for people to enjoy, with a character that wasn't really human, and I got to finish and fill out Cernos' whole story!

I think it's a very good balance of both wants.

Welcome to my Game Dev Blog!

My name's Ender- I'm a game developer as a bit of a hobby (Even though I've been looking for jobs as a developer for a while now;;), and this blog is meant to record and show off the progress of a game I've been working on for a while, now!

I'll be using this blog to post updates on the game's progress, ideas I've been thinking about, and maybe other miscellaneous, game-development-oriented things!

I've made a personal promise to myself, that every element of this game is going to be made by me, personally! I'm using RPG Maker MV for the engine, but besides that- Music, Art, Writing, Design, and everything in-between is my own!

I hope you enjoy the game- The summary of which is extended below the "Keep Reading" line!

"Of Acid and Steel" (The title's still a bit of a work-in-progress) is a Fantasy RPG, where you play as a dracokin by the name of Cernos Talonswallow, who dreams of becoming a great hero, one day.

For an unknown reason, Cernos was left, by his parents, in the care of Erickson Ironbeard, a dwarf blacksmith in the small village of Pimaia. As he grew up, Cernos only heard second-hand stories about his family and the Talonswallow clan, of whom his parents were the leaders.

After learning of how important family and clanship was to his kin, Cernos began to draw his own conclusions about why he was left in the care of Eric, his uncle. He believed that, in his early childhood, he had made a mistake, or was lacking in some manner that warranted his abandonment. From this conclusion, he resolved to prove his own worth to his parents, one way or another, by becoming a hero; Such that his name would reach his parents' ears, and he would be worthy of the family name he inherited.

Years of begging his uncle- Who he loved too much to leave without approval from- Training, and growing up leads to a fateful day, when Cernos finally proves that he's ready to take on the world outside the small village he grew up in.

But, his adventure is bound to reach much further than even he expects...

And after five billion years, I've made Marauder a ref in the same style as Entropy's! They are my modcat from Questionable Intentions and are currently playable. I haven't really posted anything about their personality, so I'm quite curious to see how they're interpreted by players...
