Prologue
A long time ago, 4 Crystals were made by the world's creator, Hetan. Without these crystals, they evil would be able to spread the entire world to darkness. Rumors spreaded that these crystals were the balance between good and evil. Soon, evil forces from the darkest corners of the Earth heard of them and made armies of dark warriors to retrieve these crystals and break the balance between good and evil for World Domination. Soon afterwards, a war was started. Hetans forces were no match to the evil of these warriors. Hetan was vanished, his crystals were scattered, and all was lost.

Introduction
You are the survivor, Kazuki of these horrible wars. Your mission: Retireve the crystals before they do. If this task is accomplished, you will be able the rid the world of all darkness.
Try out the awesome features as you explore dark caverns, ancient battle fields and ruins, and more!

Features
Sounds - Awesome sound I found from some websites. happy.gif
One Player - This game will be one player, but must be played in Battle.net, (Move into the "Explorer" slot) so there won't be any cheating! tongue.gif
Exploration - 5 Towns, 8 Caves/Dungeons/Forests to explore!
Battle System - Just the typical, touch the enemy and battle theme system with a few twists. wink.gif
Magic System - When in battle a Dropship used for spells will appear. You will be able to use several spells depending on your level.
Saving - I don't want a too complicated saving system, so I just decided to make it so you can save and be able to go back to the last town you visited. Still have to save in starcraft so you can play it again.
Item System - You will only be able to carry infinite amounts of eight items at a time. You must go to the bank to retirve other items.

Notes
This game WILL be a One Player map. You won't cheat, there's gonna be anti cheats wink.gif
Lights won't be able to fit into what I've planned to do in this map, so I had to take it out. I don't have enough strings/locations for it.
REMEMBER THESE WHEN YOU PLAY:
Minerals = Coins(The Currency of this Region)
Vespene Gas = MP(Magic Points)
You may only carry eight items at a time.
Level Up alot! There is much to come...

Spells
Spells are a major part of the battle system. Some enemies won't be effected by your regular weapons. That reason, there will be spells that effect several units more than others. With Eight Spells to use(you will learn them all by level), you can kick Evil Ass with the cost of MP(Magic Points)! At the start, the max MP you will be 100. Leveling up gives you more MP. Every second, you regain 1MP.
Here's the Edited Version of the Spells

Here is a list of spells and what they do:
Level One Spells

Your average spell. Costs 12MP. Very Effective against Ice Types.

Frost

Your average spell. Costs 12MP. All-around spell.

Your Average spell. Cost 12MP. Very Effective against Fire Types.

Battle System And Upgrades
The battle system. It gives alot of flavor to the map if you have an awesome Battle System. I will be using the "Touch it, Battle it" system. Random Battles are way too complex and costs alot of triggers, strings, and locations. I don't want to waste too much space.

Upgrading is a must, every now and then, when you got some money, you can upgrade your abilities, enable spells, and more! Be sure to do that every now and then. wink.gif

Screenshots
Here comes the first batch!
[attachmentid=1848]
The improved Entrance/Exit to Gail. Oh! Looks like those miners in the top-left need you to go grab some tools! (Side Quest 1, you won't go back there for awhile, so be sure to give the tools to him! He has a surprise for you...)
[attachmentid=1503]
Gail, the city where winds blow softly.

Sounds like Dragonball Z
Report, edit, etc...Posted by (DB)Baal on 2004-09-02 at 19:43:14
Does sound alot like DBZ maybe just change the storyline alittle so it isn't crystals or w/e. Everyone seems to use that and almost every RPG starts in a village 'untouched' by evil >< I'm not trying to put ya down but I am picky when it comes to storylines mainly cause I am writing a book and I just want to help other people along ><
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kingra on 2004-09-02 at 19:44:37
Lol, I did seem to think it sounded like DBZ. Yeah, I might change the storyline, even if I did change it 3 times already disgust.gif
Report, edit, etc...Posted by (DB)Baal on 2004-09-02 at 19:48:26
I find that maybe instead of you having to find crystals you have to find out what is corrupting the land and it just happens to be the creator. So it's a story of corruption evil and hatred. Just make sure you make the creator GODLIKE! And make him fugling hard to kill happy.gif lol

Nah, I'd rather stick to what I just wrote. Check how I changed the story around biggrin.gif

What about the : Great Quest of The Kakaru... The magical kakaru will bring peace on the world? tongue.gif
Report, edit, etc...Posted by (DB)Baal on 2004-09-02 at 19:55:28
Thats much much much Better happy.gif I still think you should have it so you don't start in a town touched by the evil. But the new storyline is a great improvement.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by PodFedJay on 2004-09-02 at 20:01:39
How are u making the town? with square terrains? How are u making the houses and stuff, by buildings or terrinas? And one more question, wat u mean full of darkness? like no light or tons of evil creatures?

While we are on the subject, what kind is best in an RPG ; buildings or terrain for making houses etc?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by (DB)Baal on 2004-09-02 at 20:15:26
I personally like terrain buildings as houses but terrain is nice too.

Kazuki? Sounds like the motorcycle company Suzuki. Is that what you got the name from?
I think you should start out in a town under attack and you cant let the gates be destoryed. So you must help the archers and anything else defend against the attack if you wish to get any further.

Nope. I got it from some Japanese guy's name ermm.gif
Yeah, that begining sounds kind of sweet. Again, I'll think about it. happy.gif

Probably just buildings. Some might be terrain though, like Mansions, entrances to towns, etc.
Full of darkness as in tons of evil creatures. mellow.gif
I don't quite like the no light idea. I think it'd be copying PirateKing's map, LoH.
I don't have permission anyways. sad.gif

No permission is necessary! I didn't even really make LoH, I just stole it from a guy I met bnet... I made some changes though, so I took his name out.

Ideas are actually free for the taking. No one really cares if you take ideas as long as you aren't blatantly ripping off their map.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Mpstark on 2004-09-02 at 21:03:46
The whole idea sounds like a remix of qPirateKing's map. Even the name. Oh, and PirateKing, I hope you were joking.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by (DB)Baal on 2004-09-02 at 21:08:52
Well I don't think its much of a ripoff as long as the story is unique the gameplay can be quiet similar but if its not a complete and utter ripoff don't bug em. Plus Pirate was joking look for the typing in black wink.gif

PS Stark love your avatar I recognize it from a MTG Card
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Mpstark on 2004-09-02 at 21:20:23
Someone else noticed! Magic is the best card game out there!

On subject now, I agree completely with you Baal. You can have the same basis, but don't copy the idea totally.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kingra on 2004-09-02 at 21:22:04
Well, if Pirate puts it that way, I'd be glad to borrow the light concept! happy.gif

BTW: Keep checking this page for updates, will you?

I feel kinda tired. I woke up so early this morning...Well, I'm off! See ya.

Just get some SS up as soon as you can. That reminds me I gotta get some work done on Doom 3 anyway if you need any suggestions I am always open just PM me happy.gif

story sounds alright; could elaborate a little more and add some more depth to it.

and i always like it when there are multiple locations to visit biggrin.gif

use and light system and that touch-battle are also a plus.

Personally I don't care whether it has a good unique and original story or says: "Save the princess and kill the evil kidnapper." But either way, quests and missions are needed. If you don't have quests, games like "Open RPG" are pointless to me.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by (DB)Baal on 2004-09-03 at 18:43:11
Yeah but that is just part of gameplay. But if the quests are bland and unoriginal it gets boring fast. And the quests need to fit in with the story to a extent.
