_Update: I dug out an old journal which contains a ton of notes from the first time I studied RPG Maker. This week has been all about catching up to speed and seeking new inspiration for the upcoming titles. For once, the distractions from my work actually yielded something I can use. Two new leads: the DanMachi anime and Nocturnals by Cowboy Toad Games.

Thinking on DanMachi and a couple of other JRPGs, I figured that looking at the style guides as their own worldbuilding projects works as a new stratagem. More info to follow but I gotta bugout soon. Later, later.
