Wonderin' about making a mod...

[mellagluerot]

I'm a good pixel artist, although mediocre at scripting (other friends can help) and if anything I have a lot of ideas. Haven't been able to find anywhere else to post something like this, so I'm posting it here - should I? I want feedback if yes and reasons if no. If you're wondering, it's meant to be a mod that expands greatly on late-game content, while also filling up Hardmode and Pre-Hardmode more concretely and making pre-boss a little faster alongside a mini-boss as an alternative to mining. More biomes, shift already existing ones, resprites, the normal big mod. So... Yes, or no? Your feedback is valuable

Hello!
Welcome to the forums!
I for one say, if you have ideas and you think you want to try and share or express them,
go for it.
This place is a great place to share your creativity. People here can be great for feedback!
If you do start on something, I look forward to seeing what you manage to do!

Sounds interesting, I’d love to hear more details
Also there are plenty of threads in this section that have guides on scripting mods that would probably help you

My advice:

1. Use Example Mod, it’s a godsend
2. Start with a small mod then move on
3. Half your expectations, then half them again. You’re not getting a boss done in a week.

Or, gradual development. I can start with something that expands on the early-game with minibosses and such and eventually move to what I want to be making.

Yep. I’m starting with a mod that only adds wings.

Hell, minibosses might be hard as a start.

I mean, not pure minibosses lol. Probably some script tweaks, stat changes, and maybe additional items.

Sounds good!

and your 2nd mod is already adding a great vanity item for one's birthday

This sounds like a great step in progressing!

I just hope I can, somewhere in the future, remake (someone else's) KARMA mod so it become sort of more "functionable".

Question... What is the KARMA mod?

And naming yourself some samurai from Brazil allows you to wield the Murasama, so this doesn't surprise me.

This was removed years ago, but you have a point.
