It's that time of the year again
here are some thoughts for the season:
when i look at the night sky it's all black, so dark!
but wait! what are those pinpricks? yes,
they're stars! little lights!
it's on earth as it is in heaven. loads of darkness but good people all over.
here on earth we are the lights. like candles.
but then, those candles do give light. like a match gives light in a dark room.
that's what i want to be, a candle. it's not much, but it's something.
wanna help out? together we can make it work. even if only in a small area.
i wish you all a happy xmas. may the light shine on you.
may the new year bring you rewards for your struggles.
and may you be blessed with love and happiness.

Last Call: IndieDB Game of the Year Top10 Vote!
My minions,
Tomorow the vote ends, so here is your last chance to make your God of Darkness happy ! :)
This will only take you a few seconds and you do want to make me happy, don't you ? *puppy eyes*
For posterity, Eyalbook again!
Because there is no way in hell I'll let this great thing be forgotten, let me paste it again, been so long!
Grats to the great Burbs Lulls who created it!
Sorry, it just keeps on making me laugh :)
Gamers communities are toxic? Not here!
I already said, many times, that I love Tales of Maj'Eyal's community but it keeps on surprising me with niceness and kindness.
Multiple times I have seen people with white names in the ingame chat (white names = people that play the free version) say things like "As soon as I get some money I'll buy this game!" and such; only to see it followed by some other person saying "I can buy it for you!".
Total strangers. Being kind to one an other!
I've had people request that I change my paypal interface to allow them to donate for an other player.
And this is only talking about the money stuff; but each time I'm on I see new people asking for advices and getting them. I see people congratulating one an other for feats of awesomeness. I see people sharing in on the loss of somebody's character.
I look at my players and I see kindness and fun; and that makes me the happiest game designer there can be!
I love you players, please keep on being nice and keep on dying ingame ;)
Announcing: Embers of Rage
My minions, I have teased it, I have talked about it, but I never actually officially announced it!
One year has passed since the one they call the Scourge from the West came and single-handedly destroyed most of the Orc Prides. The Sunwall, now possessing a Farportal, have entered an economic and millitary pact with the Allied Kingdoms in the west and conquered most of Var'Eyal. The few remnants of the Prides are caged. But by chance the Scourge missed the Kruk Pride, which now stands as the only orc settlement left. Isolated on an island they too however face impending doom. Besieged by the Sunwall they are barred from entering the mainland and on their own island they are at war with a technologically advanced civilization of giants. Their only hope is to reverse-engineer their steam-powered technology and bring metal mayhem to all the foes of the Pride.
Embers of Rage is the second expansion for Tales of Maj'Eyal. The concept and start of the development is now about three years old but in the last year it has picked up pace a lot, and now I am happy to say the release is getting close!
But what does it bring exactly?
- A new story to play through, set in the Far East continent (that the orcs call Var'Eyal) which continues the story of the world.
- A full length campaign that will see your characters fight from level 1 to 50
- Play as an Orc and reclaim your land and future
- Unlock another -secret- race
- Play as a Sawbutcher, a melee battle-engineer that uses both his cunning for technology and his trusty steamsaws to bring hot steamy metal mayhem to his foes
- Play as a Gunslinger, a steamgun dual wielding master-sharpshooter capable of amazing feats of pure steamy badassness
- Unlock other -secret- classes
- Unlock the possibility to play the new classes in the vanilla campaign, because why not!
- Use the tinker system to craft some technological wonders to attach to your objects to become more versatile. Need more mobility? use Rocket Boots. Want to fire ammo without a launcher? attach a Hand Cannon to your gloves!
- Save yourself with versatile medical salves; inflexible runes and infusions are so old-school!
- Choose from six new prodigies, available even in the vanilla game
- Unearth long lost mysteries of the past and discover sinister plots in some thrilling new lore to discover
- And obviously discover a huge number of new zones, artifacts, creatures, achievements, talents, ... It is after all a full campaign!
- All while listening to custom made musics for each zones
Now my minions, you simply need to wait patiently in line while your local God of Darkness prepares to unleash the Embers of Rage upon you!

Ya'll want Legend of Dragoon custom tiles?
I have made a complete set of Legend of Dragoon chars (Dart, Shana, Rose, Albert, Kongol, Haschel, and Meru) each with a normal and Dragoon Form tile (Using images found online, but refined). Making a mod seems like a pain in the rear, so I wanna know if anybody will use it before I attempt to make a mod out of it.
