Greetings. My name is Decus. I run a group of aspiring game developers getting our feet wet in the game making business. Our team is called EkIchi (Beneficent Blood). We're in the midst of a few small projects, and have some development on one larger project that we are taking  a hiatus on until we finish up some faster, smaller games to put out to public.

Most times we code our own logick and use Ogre for our graphicks. Our game titles include both fan-based games and original ideas. So I promise you some very interesting things from our side.

It is nice to be among fellow game devs, especially those who design games with a roleplaying nature. Our team offers positions when needed so if someone out there wants a part of a nice development team with potential to turn into something great, just PM me.

A bit about myself. I am 22, nearly 23, and have been DMing roleplaying games on forums and otherwise for over 12 years. I was a gamer practically from birth and have always had the passion to create game worlds of my own. Just recently I started EkIchi and gathered small kids, teens, and some adults into a work environment so they could learn hands on while working in a group. I really have high goals for the team, hoping to turn it into a profiting company after we gain a bit of experience and a name for ourselves out there among the indy dev teams. I am also a creative person: drawing, writing, singing, choreography. I've always been a leader type in my younger days and so I love to organize people and work on projects. My favourite game series is Star Ocean, but besides RPGs  also enjoy survival horror and sim games.

I hope I enjoy this community to the fullest and meet some other very talented game dev team managers/presidents.

All the best!

Decus

Yay! Decus is here!

We hope to see some of your stuff around here on GW. Post lots too. 

Aye. Thanks for the welcomes. I'll try my best to stay active here, yes. It seems there are more Ten Sages/Wise Men fans here as well. I stumbled upon an 'Indalecio' just a bit ago. I wonder if he's still around...

I also hope to find many more women in the game development industry. I think women are capable of also leading successful dev teams, albeit rare to see.

also why arent you allowed to celebrate halloween?

My parents are both ordained pastors of their on Christian Church (independant). They are really strict in their beliefs. I am also a Christian, but I don't judge others like they do. I believe true Christianity means to be 'like Christ', who does not judge people bsed on appearances and loves all people no matter ho far they stray.

I've never been accepted by my family. To quote my mother: "We're more of a family without you in it."

They don't allow Halloween. I still love it, though.

You're in your 20's.  I think you can celebrate Halloween if you want to now.

You'd be surprised at how very wrong you are...

Your mom sounds pretty harsh, Decus. Like, that's a pretty messed-up thing to say.

Pretty much. Hmm...I don't normally like to talk about these things. But I think I have some pictures of the bruises to prove that my age means nothing when it comes to the control she likes to have.

Anyways, Halloween is great! I plan on trying to go visit my friend in Colorado sometime this month providing I am allowed to. She is such an awesome person. I hope to one day possibly live near/with her. My boyfriend woud rather me live with him, though. And Timotej would rather me marry him and not the guy I am with. Not to mention the other guys I know. So, plenty of options.  But still have to get the permission.
 

Not too good at making sandwhiches (or food in general...) but making a game is something I can do.
