Storyline and Characters

    Aeson
    user posted image
    Description:
        As a traveller in the land, Aeson has no set path for himself.  He wanders
        aimlessly with his weapon.  He is a rather mysterious person, but indeed very
        strong.


    Syr
    user posted image
    Description:
        Syr is a soldier who fights against the Letor.  His strength and skill with the
        sword has never been matched before.  Gradually, his ranks move up and
        becomes well-known and also Aeson's friend.


    King Azreth
    user posted image
    Description:
        King for over 15 years, Azreth reigns justly.  He is thought to have been the
        greatest king over Arex in a thousand years.  The soldiers he manages have
        tremendous strength, as well as his son Aylon.


    Esla
    user posted image
    Description:
        Though she may be female, she has the second highest rank (the king being
        the first) of commanding the soldiers.  Esla is feirce in battle and shows no
        mercy towards her enemies.  She is also a good friend of the king.


    Veyrus
    user posted image
    Description:
        A servant to the king, highly respected.  Veyrus has been the king's servant
        ever since Azreth took the throne.  He is honest in his work, but there were
        always the few days of unexplained absence.


    Arkan
    user posted image
    Description:
        The leader of the organization called Letor.  Not much is known about her, but
        it is rumored she brought back magic from two thousand years ago.  Only the
        members of her group can use such magic.  Her location is unknown.


    Enu
    user posted image
    Description:
        Arkan's brother.  Leads the Letor group with his sister.  His weapon is piercing
        and magic deadly.  One of the best fighters ever to come to the land.


    Razech
    user posted image
    Description:
        His weaponry is a breakthrough in technology.  Though, it is a pity that the
        Letor are the makers of it, so no one in the kingdom has access to it.


    The Prolouge

    To be included...




Features and Gameplay

    Players: 6
    Tile-Set: Jungle (Mostly Isometrical)
    Area: 192x192
    Turn Based Combat
    Virtual HP
    Advance Save Engine

The Save Engine

    With a 20 base code and 16 digits, I can have 6.5536•10^20 different possibilities, but I don’t have that kind of time so I separated the code to different segments.

    The Code will be able to save the following items:

        [X] Exact Experience
        [X] Exact Gold (10's Rounded Down)
        [X] Carried Items
        [X] Equipped Weapons
        [X] Progress in Story




Battle System

  It is Turned Based which means when you first encounter an enemy, you will have to select the option you would like to do.  Your turn is first, then it is the enemy's turn.  It will toggle back and forth each time until you run away or one claims victory. You can see the main screen in the screen shot, but here is the list of spells and items:

    Holy Magic:

        [X] Flee - 100% Escape
        [X] Heal - Restores 3 HP
        [X] Regen - Gain 1 HP a Turn

Looks nice and complex(trigger-wise) I like the turned base idea. Im guessing you use the gateway for spells? As for the story could you tell us at least a LITTLE idea of the plot? Nice screenies. Could I try the demo? Pleeeease! Looks kool GL finishing it
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Fwop_ on 2006-01-25 at 20:26:05
I editted main page, so it's a little easier to read (if you even read it).

@Pyro. The Gateway is your console, you use it for basically anything you need to issue a command.

I will also put up a little prolouge for the story, to give you people an idea of what it will be about.

Looks like this'll be a good map. Terrain's nice also. What items are gonna be used? Bread and butter potion/ethers?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Fwop_ on 2006-01-25 at 20:31:26
Potions/Ethers/Elixirs (I know, a little uncreative, but meh..)

You will also use consumable items for snythesizing weapons and armor.

What does night/day affect? Monster types? Spells? Lights?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Fwop_ on 2006-01-25 at 20:38:51
So far, all night/day effects is Shops. They will only be open in day time (except for the inns). But, I will make them effect vision, monsters spawning, and basically some other things I can think of.

Sounds like a nice game, after all most map makers have gone through a phase where they just wanted to make a RPG with the code system like Xuru and all...i myself have passed that O.O...

But I wanna beta test when you get one out ;D

Thanks fwop very nice map even thought I've seen it when it began, but the more abilities is nice and Level 50 is great to haha. tongue.gif

I finished the Stamina System, I just need to copy to other players.

@Moogle: No, quests have not been added yet. I am first trying to finish the overall engine, then I will get into the story more and side-quests.

@Dark Marine: The code system on Xuru sucked. This one has much more advanced, and stores basically everything on your charcter. If I see some activity in this topic from you, I will consider a beta tester.

Yes i noticed that! And yes i'd love to beta test a new RPG that is looking pretty damn good from the Screen Shots. I mean I'm looking forward to a new RPG. happy.gif

As for something else...Hope you do well bye1.gif

Today, I am going to copy the triggers for the stamina system over to the over five players. I will also add some story to the first post. I will try and set up the weapons and armor level restrictions today and fix some glitches I noticed while playing through.

@Dark Marine: Alright, I will let you be beta tester. I'll PM you some information.
