Frequently Asked Questions

(If you have a question that isn't answered here, you can message me via my Tumblr ask box! Or if it's something more formal, email me at ponettplus@gmail.com.)

Q: Do you take commissions?
A: Sometimes! But not in a few years. For a while I was focused on finishing SLARPG, and now I'm dealing with creative burnout in the wake of finishing a game I spent almost eight years on. I haven't been drawing much lately in general, even for myself. (And I just haven't needed the money thanks to the game's success, thankfully.) When I do take commissions, though, they aren't first come first serve. I open up a Google form for submissions, and I select a handful to do from there. I'll be sure to post in all the usual places (Twitter, Tumblr, FA) the next time I open commissions.

Q: (question about SLARPG)
A: SLARPG has its own FAQ page on its website!

Q: Are you working on a new game? DLC? Etc.?
A: I'm currently in the early planning stages for a new game, which is set in a different world from SLARPG with different characters. It should appeal to people who liked SLARPG, though. (You can assume it will still be about queer furries.) I'll have more to share about that when things are set in stone. SLARPG itself will receive a free Hard Mode update at some point in the future, though I can't promise when exactly because, again, burnout. Your patience is appreciated.

Q: What version of RPG Maker did you use?
A: VX Ace! Which is very old now, but SLARPG relies on too many Ace-specific scripts to turn back now. I would recommend you start with a later version of the engine if you're trying to make something in this day and age, such as RPG Maker MZ.

Q: What program/brush settings do you use when drawing?
A: I used to do all my drawing in Photoshop. I typically use a default Photoshop brush, the spatter 24 pixels brush, with spacing turned down to 1% and scattering on both axes set to 76% with a count of 4. I now use Clip Studio Paint with a brush designed to look exactly like that Photoshop brush because I hate change. As for pixel art, I have used Aseprite a bit for animation, but I mostly just use Photoshop because it's what I'm used to.
