Eternal – Return of the Void

So I’m guessing a few of you are wondering what happened to this little project?
Well the good news is that this is still going. I’ve been working on little bit’s here and there. And it’s during that time that, after much internal debate, to bite the bullet and upgrade the game to be made using RPG Maker ACE.

It’s not that I think 2K3 is bad. On the contrerey, it still has some functions I wish the other makes would use. But for what I’m planning to do, especially for combat, I’m going to want the enhanced maker. Plus Ace, has options and features that makes how I tend to work much easier.

What does this mean?

Well it means I’ll be remaking the entire game (I.E all the work I’ve done so far) into Ace. It will be (hopefully) be the same game in look and feel as before, but with more dynamic combat and little extras.

This of course unfortunately means that I’ll have to re-do all the maps, animations, dialog, everything really into the new engine. So yeah it’s going to be a time sink, but considering everything I think it’s worth it as the Pro out way the cons.

I’ll also start upgrades to the current game page over the next few days, as I don’t think the upgrade warrants an entire new game page. I’ll be images that may no longer apply to the project until new images can take their place. And I’ll also have to remove the current demo since it’s no longer applicable. I’ll also add the beginning of the undoubtedly massive credits page for all the resources and scripts I’ll be using.

I also might take up this opportunity to start a monthly or bi-monthly progress report, but don’t hold me to that unless people really start asking for it.

And that’s it for now. Expect changes to the page over the next couple of days, and I’ll let you guys now hoe the transition is going in a week or so. So stay tuned and keep it real.
