Inspirations

Fantasia's Gameplay is a mixture of several Platformers and Action RPGs I've played over the years and I even added in my own ideas.

Here are the inspirations I took...

Addictive Gem/Coin collecting (Wario Land Series)(Especially Wario Land 4)

In most Platforming games, you usually collect something that floats in the air. whether it be coins, rings, donuts, or crystals.

Instant Spike Death (Mega Man)

In Mega Man games, once you touch a spike, you're a goner. This adds challenge to stages and makes you avoid them as much as possible.

Running Button (Super Mario Bros)

It feels good to have a choice to walk or run.So, I added this in the game.

Simple Sword Slashing Action (Wonderboy, Monster World, and Popful Mail)

I wanted to keep the action, simple, addictive, and easy to master, similar to these two action-rpg series.

Springs (Sonic)

Having these is a good way to enhance level design.

Wall Jump (Mega Man X)

This is a very fun way of going about stages. Also, it enhances level design by allowing you to reach higher areas.

Active Item Usage (Samurai Kid and Kingdom Hearts)

These two games had a way for you to toggle through your inventory with a press of a button. It's very simple, so It is being added.

Acts and Worlds (Mario and Sonic)

I always did love the word "Act" when playing a sonic game, so I use this word in Stage Introductions.

The list goes on and on, but these are the main points.
