• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Is there a name for the thing in fiction (usually tv/film) where a character uses a specific gender pronoun for a character who is unknown to them instead of using they/them, solely because the writer wants it to be more of a surprise later when it turns out to be someone of a different gender...

    Does anyone else's brain do the thing where after you listen to someone with an accent you like, you start thinking in that accent for a while?

    If you were in charge of your country, what would you do?

    What the title says. At least, what would your top priorities be? UK Change the voting system to a form of proportional representation (most important issue, I mean that unironically) Undo all of the authoritarian stuff that's been pushed through in the last couple of decades (erosion of the...

    Is there a thematic reason for bridges to be so prominent in Unova?

    The only other one I remember is that Tubeline Bridge is based on the Forth Bridge in Scotland

    Is there a thematic reason for bridges to be so prominent in Unova?

    Black and White's main theme is the clash between ideals and truth, and you end up coming to a reconciliation with N. It could be said that there ends up being a bridge between the conflicting worldviews. Bridges connect things, and one place a bridge is featured is when you enter Entralink. A...

    Fun Challenges

    When I usually do nuzlockes I play with a rule that I am allowed to use healing items I've found (except revives), but I can't buy any more. I also sometimes consider a rule where the first trip to each Pokémon centre is free but every use after that costs a certain amount, which I do by buying...

    Listening to Pokémon music remixes is making me hope for a re-remake of Gold and Silver one day

    What are some of your fond memories about playing pokemon?

    As with other people here, it would take too long to list all of them. What I find most surprising is how quickly I became nostalgic for gen 6. It came out while I was studying abroad and was in a Pokémon society at the university there. It's probably the most I've socialised irl before or...

    I've been thinking a lot about overworlds in games recently. The overworld in games like New Super Mario Bros or Super Mario 3D world are just glorified level select screens, you only have a character running around to make it appear less boring. Games like Mario 64, Sunshine, Galaxy, are still...

    Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl

    I'm not opposed to chibi styles, but there's something about how they look in these remakes that seems a bit off. Maybe if the head was a tiny bit smaller or the body was 1.5 times bigger? I don't know. I liked Zelda A Link Between worlds, maybe it looks okay there because of the weird...

    Who's your favourite human character?

    There's so many human characters in Pokémon that there's now a mobile game about collecting them instead of Pokémon. Who's your favourite?

    I know the general story and setting of the game I want to make, but it's hard to then come up with gameplay that fits with it. The best games have gameplay the complements the story. RPGs seem like a kind of an easy genre to pick? Because the overworld and battles are generally separate from...

    If it's visual novels you're interested in making, I hear Ren'Py is a popular engine to use. I think it requires knowledge of Python, but making any game requires programming and Python is among the easiest to learn.

    So the long and short of it is, that I work better when I surround myself with other people doing similar things. It helps keep me motivated I guess. Would anyone be interested in working on whatever kind of games you want, and posting progress etc here? Either large projects or small "flash"...

    I haven't been keeping up-to-date with the updates so I'm not aware of what is in the most recent update, I'll have to check it out. I don't play with mods because I have it on Switch.
