Reminder: DotSC Ending

Post by EvilCoatrack » Tue Feb 26, 2013 6:36 pm

Hey all,

I announced this on the temp forum, but I haven't heard back from all of my players regarding the ending yet.

I am ending Destiny of the Stonetear Clan, and will be working on the finale in the coming days/week. Most of the game's posts were lost when Blind Ferret went boom, but I will be posting a summary of the events + an ending sequence on these forums.

Reminder: If you played a character in DotSC and have not already gotten back to me with any finale thoughts for your character, please send me a PM.

Characters I have already received input for:

Wields
Yells
Crimson
Tends

Characters I have yet to receive input for:

Thinks
Fond
Acts
Saves

Wait, we can contribute even if we died? That's awesome, but i have to know how we're contributing before i send a post. Did we come back to life? Are we watching over the others from on high? Or something else entirely.

For the dead characters (Wields and Thinks), input about their goals and how they would have wanted to be remembered would be something I could work with.

*poke*

Is this still going to happen?

I'm sorry, I don't mean to rush you, ECR :praise: , but I am really eager :freaky: to find out how it ended. :oops:

Yeah, it will happen. I've just about settled on the plot, and will try to get some work done art-wise this weekend.

Sorry for the delay, all. Work has been stupid lately.

It's not the finished version yet, of course. And doing nature scenes in pixel art continues to be an exercise in patience.

Sorry it is taking so long all, I took on added responsibility at work this month and my free time has been all shot to hell. I will keep working at it as I can, but there is quite a bit of art left to do and it just takes time. I have not forgotten about DotSC.

Good to know, was starting to worry a little. Impatiently awaiting the ending made of win.

Progress continues at a snail's pace. I really am sorry for the wait, guys, but work is crazy. No ETA yet.

No drama ECR. Good things are worth waiting for.

That is just cruel. It fooled me to look in here, full of anticipation, just to be disappointed again.
ARGH! I need to finally find out if Tends will live or not! You understand? NEED TO. :freaky:

I check to see who posted last, so as not to be dissapointed. As long as EC doesn't post, I don't expect anything.

Please don't worry about missing anything in this thread - I will be posting a new thread with the summary + finale when it is finished.

Again, I am sorry for the delay. I am still pulling up MS Paint to continue working on the finale when I can, but it has been rather slow, due in part to lack of free time and in part to trying to draw outdoor scenes in pixel art at various magnifications. I should be able to put in a good chunk of time this weekend.

Thanks for the patience and for the understanding. Current goal is to get this done this month, but I think I've said that to myself every month.

Honestly, making myself work on the ending has been difficult, largely because the entire backlog of the game was lost (except for the images), and trying to make an ending in the absence of that is a bit complicated. And, of course, every time I sit down to work on it I get frustrated with losing the game again. Will try to power through it in the coming weeks.
