The Tournament is Over - v1.0.2


Hello all.

A couple days ago, I attempted to write a blog post called “Choosing a Medium”, about a recent project I had canned. Whilst writing this blog post, I had a more reflective session than I anticipated.

The long and short of it is, I will not be continuing development on ToV. I have pushed an update containing the work I have done up to now (not much), and updated the tov_animations.zip and tov_extra.zip that supporters get.

I will be leaving the donation option open for those who want the animations, artbook, etc. I am truly sorry to people who supported this game expecting a full project (as I had promised). I simply cannot continue work on this project.

Thank you for your time. I will be taking a step back from game development for quite some time to figure out where I am mentally.

the program wont open as the error says
The Application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005)

Can someone help me?

CPU? GPU? OS? Any logs in %APPDATA%\Tournament of Venus\? I need more than “it doesn’t work”

It’s very likely an issue with Windows 7 or your CPU - I think the instruction sets are not supported on the Athlon. You can check here - https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/system_requirements.html#id1

OpenGL 3.3 is also required for graphics - https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/1alam8g/how_do_i_check_what_open_gl_version_i_have/?solution=5d22031aaeffe0015d22031aaeffe001&js_challenge=1&token=bbbe4bf1c9a2b5160829c4be34da58613903d79c08d48df595f9f1fa94a16bba

but y tho

I wrote about it broadly on my blog, but tl;dr, ToV was WAY too big relative to the skillset I possess. It should’ve been completely re-spec’ed from scratch, but I wanted to keep the structure. This mistake cascaded into so many problems that I can’t reasonably finish it.

what are you doing next?
please feel free to contact on telegram.

As the blog post says, I will be taking an extended break from yiff gamedev. The focus of next projects will be small games that don’t require me to rely on an outside artist.
