Let’s be realistic about this. This is a lot. It’s going to take months, maybe years to finish. Especially since it’s only 2 ppl working on it.

Plus I’ve already stated in previous topics that school collided with this project, so I couldn’t get much done. And idk who told u that It was gonna be done in one day because nobody did, its obv gonn take months or years. Ik its two people but all this stuff is simplified If i rather have done it without using a game engine.

LETS GO!!! Plz tell me ya’ll considering my fire skin ideas and would be open to more concepts and ideas, as I can help the developers get new ideas and help fill in story blanks and what not. I’m sooo hyped,G.

Well since the game is in 3d(if you didn’t know yet), ideas will be taken into consideration but it’s going to take a while for ProPVP to make them. Like your hype, keep it up! :D
