(March 24 to March 30, 2025)

Welcome dear readers to the latest issue of the Weekly Gazette!  Here in the Gazette, we give you the news in brief of what occurred in the past week as well as provide any news happening in Save-Point itself

Official Area

  Announcements and Updates

Since he told the guys working on the Refugee site for RPGMaker Webs that they had till September before he deleted the temporary zip files, DerVVulfman continued working on the RMRK Archive before it closes.  He's been pushing forward, creating a new board for multi-platform works, and finishing all script forums except for RPGMaker VX's.  He's now working on Resources, having already uploaded its Tools and Audio subforums. However, the battlers section gave him a shock when one thread alone required nearly 100 individual images to be saved and archived.

  Occasions

New members have appeared this week, one being GeneStoneGames who admits he's mostly going to lurk while focusing on cozy little games.

In search of RPGMaker VXAce threads came Funny_frog_lover who was thrilled to see the work at creating the vast archives of forgotten forums. Unlike his artistically inclined members, he is an Eventer whose had experience dating back to the earlier RPGMaker 2003 era.  And with our forum's archives and the recovered scripts therein, he can continue working on his side-scrolling platform.  Oh, and he loves the frog emotes that kyonides created with the Bread-emote style.

  General Chat

The current downpours and the reworks performed to comic panels in his online comic was on the mind of kyonides this week, having reworked a number of images in his previous chapter. Encouraging and instructing AI to generate content that fit his narrative than the generator's assumptions was a challenge. 

Games Development

  Development Discussion

Revisions and realizations in desert warfare appeared to be What's up with Ace_V after reading DerVVulfman' critique of the building-sized mech that appeared going through the city walls. Once he tweaked the battledroid with thinner line art, he presented it with a better screenshot appearance.

  Upcoming Projects

For those wondering about the development of Devil's Redemption, fear not.  For this week, krayedon stated she still had all the resource content, and development was merely on hold.

  2D Resources

Welcome to the Sand Dune Arena!  In the left corner, wearing brown, trimmed with gold, at 230 lbs 225 without his turban. He brings a professional record of 41 victories without a loss, including 15 knockouts. Ladies and gentlemen, here he is the undefeated Zeke the Shiek whom you can find alongside all the other Various RMXP sprites by Ace_V.  It was last week that Ace_V made a human-shaped punching mannequin replete with punch animations, that he followed up with the boxer this weekend.

Creativity Section

  Art and Design

Under arrest and being driven to police headquarters, and worst of all, to be thrown into a bottle by a guy who reembered playing The Legend of Zelda series. Kayzee's Ordeal continues as Detective Mueller wants answers. But the investigation has literal dead ends as the body in the holding cell demonstrates. What caused the city-wide blackout? And what has just appeared in Melissa's hospital room?

Well, that's it for this week.
