#gaiden paper jam

[aproxm]

hello! what inspired you to rewrite all of the legend of zelda wind waker? i'm about halfway through it and it's been a lot of fun! thank you for working on it :-)

thank for you playing my romhack. i drew this for you a few days ago but then forgot to answer the ask, lol

i was playing an indie game that played very well with charming graphix and sound, but... its writing was wooden as well. and it bothered me so much that it was just this one singular aspect of the game that was underperforming--so what if it was just rewritten? i looked into it, even grabbed a modder who'd already contributed to the game for advice, and the hard facts were that... it was going to be very difficult to attempt that, code wise, programming wise, etc. beyond my simple capabilities.

but the idea of doing this to a game--rewriting it from the ground up--stayed firmly planted in my head. so i just started looking up random games to see what mod tools existed, and i stumbled upon winditor. this program is awesome (when it doesn't crash). i think with it you're able to outright set up entire new islands wholesale, change dungeon designs, pop in new characters, etc. i mean this guy freakin turned wind waker into ocarina of time. unfortunately, most of those features... right, beyond my simple capabilities. but... the dialogue editor seemed straightforward enough.

so the first thing i did was start fooling around with the NPCs on outset. the guy choppin' his lawn was the first i wrote, and then when i got to actually see my dialogue show up in-game, as if nintendo themselves were responsible for his now suddenly crude and rude voice, it was... really exciting. so i kept editing a few more, and then a month later i'd found myself having plowed all the way to windfall. and then a year later or whatever i get fibro blah blah blah you can read about that crap on www.aproxm.com but the gist is it was the sudden severe, debilitating pain i'd suddenly found myself developing that inspired the rest of the game. the wind waker rewritten very much kept me alive long enough for a diagnosis and meds, hahaha

... anyway i'm only just realizing you may have meant what other media inspired my writing. check out barkley, shut up and jam: gaiden or paper mario: the thousand year door

BOLD: FIRST TIME COMPLETING

[7goodangel]

Oof - made this pretty quick, though had the design for a while!

Yep! Another version of PJ! This time - April Fools edition!

(Yeee April Fools folks! I am horrible at these types of jokes so I just straight up say it at the beginning!)

Either way.... this is Gaiden - A Swap!PJ (Swapped with @lollzida​‘s Domino). They are a huge nerd - like... super huge!

Yes, is this scenario, they are still an ErrorInk mess made by accident. But both of them don’t really know where their obsession with anime/manga, graphic novels, and - more importantly - the observation of tropes - came from.

Their CMYK color scheme is a little muted - but their personality is out of this world. Out of multiple worlds honestly - due to how excited they are about almost anything. 

Guys - they’re a happy PJ. From the get go... 

They have two possible weapons (one is seen in the pic above). The two items are actually metal bars with screw points at the top and bottom - making it possible for them to combine them together or attach other add-ons to it! The list of possible weapons then? Pretty much any type of painting tool other than a paintbrush!

However - they are not much of a fighter - they rather describe stories! To draw them, to see if the world around could be slightly manipulated to what they want to see... etc!

-----

Anyway - this isn’t the ONLY thing I’ll do with them today (or for the rest of this week cause heck I be busy). I will accept asks for Gaiden until the end of Sunday, April 5th! 

So go ahead and poke at this PJ for a while! They’ll love to have some company to talk to!

((Also under read more is additional sketch of their design phase))

(and April Fools to myself I guess cause I FORGOT TO ADD THEIR TAIL TO THE MAIN PIC AAAAAA)

[7goodangel]

Gaiden: “M...Me? Having a....cameo???? I...”

Gaiden: “Thank you......THANK YOU!!!”

Seriously I screamed when I saw this - well this would be the second time I have screamed seeing a character I’ve made in this story!! Thank you!!!!

I’m just gonna slightly add Gaiden and Splatter as a cameo in Star Sanses Studio AU

Bold games means they came out this year, and I also included games I bought for other people and games people got my as gifts. just to make sure I kept track of EVERYTHING. Also, I only include games I played for the first time this year or played with the intention of beating this year. For example, I played Blue Dragon Plus in 2019 too, but tried to beat it again this year so I included it. However, I played Smash Ultimate in 2019 and 2020, but didn’t plan on beating the story mode again, so I didn’t put it on the list. If that makes sense.

Hopefully this is all of it. You’ll forgive me if I forgot some stuff. Thanks again to everyone who commissioned me or got me any of these games as gifts! I wouldn’t have been able to experience so many great titles without your help!
