(Oh look, I cheated by making this a separate project. Sorry, it's because I published 10 projects this year in my main and I have little to no motivation using my alts) Laziness and lack of interest struck again, as I delayed this about almost 2 months now despite being a short project, with half-baked efforts involved. No back to thumbnail after stopping this time. In this project: Reptlow seeks some past places or something, having his memory intact with his very old days. (I apologize for one part has Reptlow looking very odd though I don't have time to fix it) For those unaware, this was somewhat an attempt wrapping up some of Reptlow's experience in the past despite having no clear context and eventually his mood about going through the problematic places he'd been in. ========================================== Time does not rewind. ...I'm sorry for what I've done. All the things that could've happen has been shot into a million pieces. As I have said before, most stories about NeoTech before 2020 and the Tales series would be made outside Scratch, as there is no point for them being here as much. I am a Scratcher that had almost no help at all. I haven't been much to collabs either, because there was TAG, but I was never invited (mainly because I did not directly ask or something). Since 2018, I've lost many files from that point and just start to dry out completely starting in late 2020. I really didn't have true motivation since aside from the ARTAG project, which was basically my only such project that earned it's reputation. There's almost no point here, if I get nothing. My latest major animation that has been worked on heavily 2 months ago? It didn't gain anything. It was pretty much a waste of time. It's hard for me to just simply complain about not getting messages at all in each days, because who really cares about this site anyway? As I've said before, all mostly unfinished projects would eventually be shared, just so that they aren't wasted entirely. To tell you the truth, in the most recent times, I was here, to try cater people regarding efforts in making projects, especially my last ones (via lousily remixing). But instead, it feels like the effect might not happen and therefore I pretty much forfeited this. Yes, I never made an actual game or scripts that are innovative, but atleast I did something here. Basically, I wasn't motivated since and so as the quality Scratchers I've known. However, I just really have a hard time where to go, especially when I'm left out and all the opportunities (the underdeveloped projects) are gone. Starting over is no easy feat, as I have to make a room for my animations, my games, and other misc. things (I'm still not really going to YouTube. If I do, I might have separate identities for different medias). It will take a while to reinterpret the original universe I've made (the overview and the protagonist) and explaining certain untold stories that was suppose to happen in the Scratch site, and it's going to take more hassle considering I've already have some plans to make other series outside the NeoTech universe. I really hope my reinterpretations wont be as bad as I originally made it years ago, because it's surprising that the change is really slow over the years regarding the characters and places I've made. I need to find a way to find friends in sites that I'm probably going to, as being alone isn't always beneficial. Forgive me, for all of this. It wasn't meant to become like this in the first place. I am sorry... ...however, if you find me in some sites that I might be planning going to, that's a bit of kudos to you that you still know me. I actually appreciate your effort if you do try to help me one day in those sites. P.S. I've started to compose some songs back at the end of 2019, but it wasn't really that proper until 2020. Ever since, it was mostly remakes of existing songs and I wasn't really proud of my own work at all because of their quality. Besides, most of them have custom samples that I would not tell because this is controversial and it's basically the lousiest attempt to do so. Do you think I could atleast contribute something here? (Current platform is OpenMPT, along with 2 online composing sites)
Music: Polyphony Digital (Original release version) WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN THE FLASHBACKS: 2014 - It was one of his temporary jobs where he got "traumatized" by one of the "talking" pizzas. Things got chaotic from there as the talking thing was transferred to a customer's table by someone else being unaware. This was part of one of my earliest "reskin" remixes I've made 2015 - Just somewhat a breeze testing the suit around a city until "something" happens. It somewhat reflect his strong power in my 2015 projects until there was striking unfortunate events that happened there 2016 - He met some kind of demise, temporarily disabling his suit and got lost for a bit 2017 - He is preparing for some "mission", I guess, after a couple downgrades hitting his suit 2018 - A what was suppose to be a climax of him and Alet (his partner) battling Jack in a mech for a stolen artifact 2020 "Part 2" - Reptlow being demotivated during Christmas because of the part bellow and other issues but Alet tries to cheer him up (This was part of a scrapped project being a nearly recycled 2019 Christmas project) 2020 "Part 1" - A part from the project "The Expiration". Go watch it if you want to know why this happened: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/408820621/ EXTENDED LORES, PLOTS AND STUFF (Because it was never beyond small and I don't bother making a project for all of these): - Although I can't exactly name the lands, NeoTech has a sparse of lands but the one that is mostly seen is somewhat similar to North America mixed with certain other things. The other places that weren't mentioned were suppose to be a countryside place (where Rike lives in), some couple more cities, tunnels, and eventually in the other lands (one of them was Francis L.). I think the other lands or continents have played minorly, atleast in The Expiration. - For the battle against Jack (original name Elecdroid), I rewritten the story (which was originally PSP: Impossible; basically a remix series of The Candy Bar 1-5) so that what they are actually fighting are artifacts that belong to certain places. The first battles did not even start with Reptlow (since it's not kinda realistic), but his battles against him started around 2014-2015. The major and pretty much the final battle took place in 2018 where the army aren't able to put a lead to his base and instead cast Reptlow, Alet and a bunch of others to infiltrate it instead. There was supposed to be a non-canonical game of this where you use a truck with a turret and navigating through traffic and hazards which is a completely remade "PSP Quest" game, and I even originally boasted it to be my "ultimate" project. However, it was scrapped entirely without any real progress and may or may not be based on the story if it's ever going to come out, outside Scratch. - There are rumors that certain creatures in NeoTech were actually fake and were just a setup or something, given their extreme fictionality in the lands. The robots, however, are caused by some miracle back in the late 20th century. - I planned couple projects about my characters going to a game or media, but that never happened because I think it's not worth it to make it here - I don't know if this is a [Redacted], but Woltper, some random guy that stumbled upon Reptlow, has transported himself elsewhere (in another dimension) as a forced mission by some faction... and I think he is never coming back More to be eventually seen in the Home project, maybe not yet since I didn't really do much progress over the past few weeks. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/254331359/
