Final Demo -- v0.03

Hey... Would you like a final demo, guys? I was thinking on focusing more and just wait until the game is close to completion instead of worrying about any more demos, but since I got a few questions about when a new demo would be out, I figured I'd ask. Playing time at this point is about one and a half hours, give or take.

It would be the final demo before the "release candidate" download is posted. :)

The demo would include the blacksmithing system, one more town, one more sidequest and one "hidden" character in the early stages of the game.
Also, slightly tweaked dialogue and slightly more complete plot details.
It will continue the story a bit more, but the full game is nowhere near completion yet (about half overall).

So... what do you think? Would you rather keep playing demos or do you prefer to just play the complete deal?
Let me know your thoughts.

Still alive :p

Hello! Just a quick "still alive" note haha.
Progress has been WAY slower than usual, because of other everyday activities, like college and stuff.

However, the feedback that many of you posted, will provide help in making improvement and corrections to the game.

Don't know yet if there will be a third demo or just the final release (will have to think about that).

Having said that, there HAS been some progress: several new maps have been completed (Carvonica is a really great mapper! With a lot of work energy also!), a lot of reported bugs fixed, and new skills are on the works.
The story is also being polished, with some more background details being slowly incorporated to the game.
There should be several new sidequests too.

The blacksmithing skill is also a point that will hopefully be finished soon. More variery for the player is always good, I guess.

Also, the v0.02 demo will be taken down shortly, in order to concentrate in assimiliting all the feedback gained from it.

EDIT: v0.02 demo has been taken down. Thanks to those who tried it out! :)

Thanks! Have a nice day!

Feedback for v0.02

Hello people!
Please post comments/suggestions/whatnot about v0.02 demo of the game HERE, and not in the main game page.
This is just so feedback from v0.02 can be read all from one place, and doesn't mix with future releases.

Thanks a lot!

Welcome Wowpebbles!

OK! I just wanted to let everyone know that wowpebbles has kindly offered to help me with this project!
I've added wowpebbles as developer.
So, wowpebbles will be helping me with mapping mostly. I think we're mostly set with the "team" just formed. (With the notable exception of spriters, but I can live without that).

We'll see how this turns out.

EDIT: Wowpebbles changed to Carvonica!

Demo v0.02 posted!

Ok! I've finally made some progress and have completed the second demo of the game!
It should be about one hour long of gameplay.
For those of you who played v0.01, this demo isn't a LOT longer than the previous one.
I've worked mainly on polishing the battles, the maps, the dialogue and the menus.
I haven't progressed as far with the story as I would've liked (but it is all there in my head, so I have no worries about the game entering hiatus!), because I've been doing of events checking, scripts polish, etc.

I'd say the game at this point is about 40% completed. We still haven't seen any of Prince Rostam, and we're yet to confront our main antagonist.

New things/changes:
- Quest Log added
- I'm working on fixing the balance of the enemies, etc.!
- Additional maps
- One new playable character (A cleric)
- One more Herbalism recipe (I hope herbalism is actually useful, this time around...)
- New Skills
- New Items

I post the second demo in hopes that those of you who didn't get the chance to play the first one tell me what you think: if you like the direction where the game is going and stuff like that.
And if you DID PLAY the first one, please tell me if you think this is an improvement!

So... I'm uploading the demo now. Hopefully it'll get accepted sometime soon.
Please post any bug report/critique/comment/suggestions/rant/anything HERE in this blog post and NOT on the main game page, so I can concentrate more easily on finding all suggestion regarding v0.02, ok?

Thanks!

EDIT: Forgot to mention, you'll need the RPG Maker XP RTP (you can find the link in the 'Credits' page of this game profile) and the "Steinem Unicode" Font (there's a copy in my locker -- it's called STEINEMU.ttf).
Also, the game's encrypted for convenience. If anyone wants to get an un-encrypted version, just ask me and I'll find a way to send it to you.

EDIT2: The download is now live! I'm thankful for it being accepted. =)

Demo v0.01 taken down -- v0.02 soon to follow

OK! I've taken down the first demo for now.

I expect to upload the second demo in the first week of august.

New things/changes:
- Quest Log added
- I'm working on fixing the balance of the enemies, etc.!
- Additional maps
- One new playable character (A cleric)
- More Herbalism recipes (Some actually useful, this time around, I hope...)
- New Skills

Since I'm at this.... Someone know a RMXP tutorial in regard to scripting new skill effects?
I find the default skill options in RMXP extremely boring and unvaried. That's the only part that I don't like so far...

If anyone of you ever played the first demo (I think it got something like 50 downloads?)... Please post HERE, any rant/suggestion/critique/insult.
Any word of wisdom from a fellow player is always helpful! =)

Good day to you all!

A SMALL demo

Ok! Slowly I make progress... I am uploading a small demo showing the prologue and the first sidequest from the game.

The demo should be about 40 minutes long. (I'd say I'm about 20% complete with the game.)

You'll need the RPG Maker XP RTP in order to run it:
http://www.rpgmakerweb.com/download-rtp.html#xp

Please download and install this font also, or some parts of the game might not work!
http://www.urbanfonts.com/fonts/Steinem.htm
(Install the font named STEINEMU.ttf)

Please download and install it first if you want to play the demo, as I don't know yet how to make the game run without having the RTP installed. (If someone wants to show me... I'll be grateful I think!)

There may be some glitches or things that are unbalanced/incomplete... But I could really use some feedback (even if it is negative) at this point...

Please Please post feedback and/or suggestions! =)
Thanks a lot!

Initial Thoughts

Hooray! My game's been accepted. =)

This is the first game I expect to complete!
I used to practice a lot in the RM2000 days and after downloading RMXP recently I had a little practice.

So, I have a couple of cities now and I'm hoping to make some progress this couple of weeks.
(Perhaps a demo before the World Cup ends? hehe)
I have the basic idea for the story in my head, so I guess it's better to develop that in the game before I start refining things.

One of my main concerns is the battle system.
The default one seems rather boring.
I do have (very little) scripting notions, but what I've been able to do is mostly just aesthetic changes to the menu and things like that.
Perhaps in the future I'll change the battle system, but I'll try not to get too stuck on that for now.

So, what do you guys thinks of the screenshots?
Is the default battle system in RMXP really that ugly? haha
