Edit | Well, this is the name I've chosen for the new game. (The graphical RPG!!! NOT THE MINIGAME ONE!!!) I'll just repost my last message about it here:
anyway...
this new game has decent graphics so far, with three party characters, (one of them me! I'm the guy!) There are some neat features, such as animation, powers (like magic), a weird storyline, and many different kinds of enemies (that actually act differently!) I'm not sure how you will navigate, i think that it will be through nice looking menus. Look for a playable version of part 1 soon. It should have 2 boss battles and 6 different regular enemies, which are pretty cool. It probably won't compare to Final Fantasy TOM, but who cares, since mine wont take up all of the RAM (hopefully). It is going to use a simple interface and battle system.
In the first CHAPTER, you can only play as two of the characters, since the third has not come into the story as of yet.
End of Previous Post
I am working diligently on this project and I am certain to have a decent battle system working. Unfortunately, it takes up almost all of my RAM already! (it uses every pic file) The gameplay is going to be awesome, and I have a system set up already. it is getting hard to program, but something that I can truly be proud of.
BTW: due to size reasons, I couldn't really seem to get a sprite to walk around on a map, so it is going to be similar to a text game until you get into a fight. Certain actions get you into fights, others heal you, etc. But the battles are the meat of the game anyways. I'm also adding my own brand of strange humor into the game, so expect some wacky things to happen. The first boss is hilarious!
The game uses 19 lists! Yikes!
I also have to update the screenshot. I changed one of the names.
There is also a Bonus Content section. It has some slightly interesting data and instructions to view a special pic. But it's hidden! Woohoo! Easter Eggs!
On a completely different note, i just got a game called RPG Maker for my PSone. It is awesome! It should also allow me to make my games a bit more balanced, unlike Sword of the Dragon. If you trained enough, you could kill the final boss in one hit!! That's 5 million HP! Yikes again!
And here ends this ridiculously long post. |

Edit | Actually, as Easter Eggs, they are kinda lousy cept for the pic (which is "autographed, so i'll try to enhance them. Maybe add an exclusive interview with me!
btw-did anyone notice the egg in Sword of the Dragon? The final boss is Heavily Armored Pokey, a direct tribute to the awesome SNES RPG EarthBound. He's just a fat kid in a giant robospider suit.
btw x2- the first easter egg in a video game was in the old game Adventure. You could enter a secret room by pointing out a dot on a wall, and a creator's name would be written on the wall of the new room
Alrighty, enough about video game trivia... for one of my finals i did a report on their history.
The full game should not take all summer to produce. Once I get the battle system done, all I have to do is create new enemy data and environments. I expect that you download the first part of chapter one, then ungroup the second part. Then you download & ungroup the later chapters and their parts.
Expect to see more screenshots soon!
