Chaos Croc's Own Thoughts
(He had left this on a comment on one of the post, but I feel for others to be able to better view and see it, I would just make it it's own post here)
Hey there guys, Croc here. Figured I'd take some time out of everything to make a comment about this.
First of all, to Lipucd himself, you're still someone I consider a friend, but yeah. You've pretty much nailed it on the head there. At the beginning of the year, I decided to go to college, while also quitting my job. So, commissions have become my NEW job, which has pretty much taken up a large chunk of my time. Despite that, however, you're still an awesome guy, and I can't wait to see your other projects bloom and become complete, awesome works.
Now, to everyone else. It's very heart-warming to hear how much you all loved the games I put my art and ideas towards. Tyamet Chapter and Egg Assault were very fun to work on. So, what happened? Well, setting aside the work/commission bit, there's also my own kind of OCD. Both games have/had art assets that were years old in them, and my brain kept telling me that if I do ANY kind of update, I'd have to redo everything. And that's a lot of work for one man. Not to mention that, as I'm sure Lip has elaborated on, I do tend to shoot first and aim later. Great ideas, but slow to do the art for them. That's on me.
So, what does the future hold? Well, I'm not saying I won't come back and do something with Lipucd later on down the line. But it will have to be only AFTER I get myself on a time table to where I can sit down and get everything enough done for a proper release, and am able to keep on it regularly. As for Tyamet Chapter and Egg Assault, I can't see them being picked up and just continued right now. But that's not to say I won't come back and do other games on the similar vein as them. All I can tell you, is keep your eyes peeled.
