Meet Flow-chan!

Oh nice! Are the people listed helping or are they just examples?

Just examples, but who knows? The more people on board, the more motivated other users will be to join in.

Like I said, I’m on board if you’re willing to take me!

Well, it won’t be anytime soon, unless another advanced user wants to help me pilot the initial engine. I made working tests in the past, but flowlab has changed a lot over the years, so I need to rethink the engine and rebuild the concept to be as optimized as possible.

I’m unfortunately short on time after just moving to a new town right in the middle of flowjam, and I never really unpacked all the way or worked on the house much, so maybe in 2 or 3 weeks I’ll try to gather some help with creating a working optimized demo, and from there, I’ll make an official forum post inviting users to make their own games using my FloWare bundles. Until then, I suppose you all can work on some 10 object timer based mini-games while you wait for an announcement.

Yeah I know, I was just joking around. Thanks for the reply though

Just finished a rough draft server for anyone interested in helping with FloWare in the future. This way, I can manage a large number of flowlab users without digging through a mess of posts here in the forums. I’ll add rules and info after rebuilding an optimized FloWare engine, when we have bundles and a structure for users to follow. (I even added 3 layers of special lobbies and custom role colors for users that contribute a lot to the project!)

I’d love to collab if I count as a big name

I just build robots, guns, and vehicles. Your Flow-Chan figure is awesome!

Why is she not ready yet what does she need to be ready

5 Likes

Fully completed art and rigged model, and an animated sprite sheet, since the main project featuring her is FloWare, and it hasn’t begun yet.

How do we get “chosen” to collab? Or is anyone allowed to?

Anyone is allowed to. Make sure you join the discord:

That’s all I’m going to say on this. I’m so glad we’re all trying to make a family-friendly community. :expressionless:

Yes, the above quote is mine, and quoted correctly. I didn’t post my concerns about it in the general forum because like others, I was waiting to see to make sure the character wasn’t going in an inappropriate direction before passing final judgment.

I’m not anti-anime, I’m not taking sides, I’m not trying to be a prude or anything like that, but when something is borderline questionable in terms of “xualizing” an underage character, even if only fictionally and suggestively, that does make me a little uncomfortable.

Well for one, those comments are from another thread that I can’t even see, so yes this topic is family friendly. And Flow-chan is not a mascot, it’s a character to represent flowlab in a game project that Mhx was wanting to work on for a while to show different games created with Flowlab over the years.

Fun facts:

  1. 18 is both high school and legally mature
  2. As the majority of users are students, a similar aged mascot makes sense
  3. Flow-chan is a inside joke gag character and not actually going to become the face of flowlab
  4. Her being grazer’s new vtuber model was also a joke
  5. She will be the mascot of floWare however and possibly other community projects, since flowlab needs an original humanoid player character that doesn’t resemble any of the users, a real existing person, or an already copyrighted character, for legal reasons
