Underrated Creators: The Man Behind the Monsters

Rate this Entry


For some reason, with christmas around the corner, I have a lot more time to think and really I have taken a look at my expanded team, and I wonder why these guys arent as popular as the bigger names out there. And this is because Chrono Chrysalis isnt just my RPG, due to large contriubtions from people like my pal Dapiek Absaroka in particular.

He came outa nowhere really. I wanted some help with monsters and he said he would help out. Next thing you know, we have literally like 10 pages of monster concepts like these, that not only made them easier to program, but from a design standpoint, also provide tips on constructing them. Hopefully he agrees to releasing these concepts after release, because it would be ashamed if the public does not see them; They are awesome sauce! Most of his concepts are inspired by research and really have deep backgrounds.

How many creators out there are committed to a project like that? After about like 9 months now hes been helping development the entire time. I mean seriously, CC wouldn't be what it is today without this guy. Just thought I would make a blog about a creator who cares little for attention or hearts and really just wants to create a good rpg as much as I do, but I think he deserves a bunch of respect around the community. He helped me with a bunch of plot stuff, my editor basically and theres tons of stuff I could spoil, but I wont because I would probably hear something for it

Best part is, he only has about 2 hearts? Guess hearts mean very little in the end, because I think hes one of the best creators around. Not to mention makes some pretty wicked costumes.

Anyone else got any creators they think are underrated?

    I don't suppose I can really say I'm underrated can I?



    I kid, I kid. I find Mail to be a logical wizard in his own right, and sometimes he just comes off as brilliant, despite any complications.

    Though sometimes he can be slow, he has a lot of snuff if he actually publishes anything

    I can't really say anyone else so far; other people I know who are talented are pretty well credited.

    Also: 10 pages of those designs? That's one good friend ya got there. Has a nice amount of depth despite being a (probably lowly and common) enemy.

    What did happen to your Final Fantasy level? I couldnt find it on your moon and became really sad when I couldnt hear no FF 9 tunes

    lol jk, but yea I would say Mail is, even though I only played one of his early levels. Its sort of weird his first RPG concepts has so many views on youtube, and I thought he had like 10000 plus hearts before I met him lol

    And yep, most of Dapiek's monsters were designed with a lvl 1-10 party in mind, But they get pretty bizarre to say the least.

    Haha, you won't believe how many times people have been asking that. Long story short, trying to catch up to the present is hard; Move Pack rendered alot of my work to be outdated. I took down the level for renovations but... I never got around to finishing those updates.

    I'm considering to convert it into a general Video Game music collection someday (If I can compile up all my songs to a nice quality), otherwise I'll get to updating again (not much to do these days), and maybe giving some away since they really are just gathering dust in my popit.


    I'm also considering showing off my Ace Attorney music for the project; the recreations are excellent imo.




    On topic: Are the bosses designed into more detail?

    Yea I heard some when I visited Mails pod a few weeks ago, sounded great--even though I have never played the game before.

    About the bosses: Actually they are...but they dont have drawn pictures for them. All the summons and bosses were made straight from LBP2. He actually just started creating his own concepts to make sure they were done right. SO yea...I havent been doing any art for a while lol
