Infinity 3

Hello everyone,

As will be revealed soon in an interview with RMN member sbester, the future of the Infinity series will be mostly based around when and if a new version of RPG Maker will be coming. With the reveal of the RPG Maker DS graphic set for VX Ace, I believe we could see a release of the next RPG Maker within a year or so. I likely would do a fourth entry in the series only with a new RPG Maker program.

I've also expressed interest in making Infinity 3D, and Infinity Online, as sort of "dream" projects in the future. Infinity 3D might never happen, but I have come up with an idea for Infinity Online.

Naturally creating an online MMO requires many things. Mostly a dedicated server. Things simply out of my reach. It would be too complicated, hence why most hobbyist-built MMOs never make it.

However, I am interested in a different kind of game. Imagine an Infinity Online, as a website, built around a forum. It would basically be a roleplay forum, with subforums acting as the different cities and areas in Infinity 3. Members of the forum create characters, can earn virtual currency, awards, and maybe even buy items using the virtual currency.

It would be a forum, with the feel and graphics of Infinity 3. Probably avatars would match sprites and graphics from the game. It would bring the world of Infinity 3 to life, with members telling the stories of their characters, interacting with others, and maybe even being apart of a major forum-wide storyline. The forum game would also sport seasons, weather, etc.

It's an idea, and I'd love feedback from RMN.

Please post either Yay, or Nay. Also leave any other comments or suggestions you might have.

I appreciate it. Thanks. :)

Version 2.0 has been released. It's the latest, final (except minor updates) version of Infinity 3. I dropped the Region at War subtitle, since most of those elements will not be in the game. I may continue development with a DLC pack at some point, but mainly I just wanted to finish the game, and release all the updates. New buildings, new NPCs around the game, bug fixes, and more.

Version 2.0 is the largest update in the game's history.

Changes in 2.0:

-Updated text files
-Fixed music file glitch
-New intro
-Other general updates
-New logo screen
-Edited Battle Tent in Leonardo Forest
-Edited maps (Removed some Battle Tents, new building in Liberta City, etc)
-Added new maps
-Added Casino with Lottery in Market
-Removed Alignment Meter
-Removed features not active
-Healing beds added around region
-Fixed monster bug in Unknown
-Fixed variable names
-Fixed expansion staircase text in Player House (Soterios House)
-Added new NPCs around the game world
-Fixed exploration map quick exit problem
-Added sign in Unknown
-Encounter rate lowered in Unknown

You can also view all the new updates in the "Changes" text file.

All save files from 1.0, and 1.1 are compatible with 2.0 and above. Just replace all the files in the original folder, keep your saves, and load up the game. To make sure you are running the latest version, check which version by looking at the left hand corner of the game window on the title screen.

You can download the game now here on RMN. :)

Hello everyone,

Sorry for not posting lately. With college, and other things going on in my life, I've been really busy. I haven't worked on Infinity 3 much, even though I have a semi-complete update stored on my PC. I would release the update, but it's not in a complete state. All the new features, like the pawn shop, new maps, removal of the alignment bar, and other updates will eventually all be released.

I won't be making the Halloween deadline. I will release the updates soon, maybe sometime in November or December. For now, I hope everyone enjoys the current game. And anyone is more than welcome to make their own mods, and post about it here on the Infinity 3 page.

I'll post every so often, and check back. And soon, once I feel like working on the game again, I'll release some updates.

Hello everyone. Just a quick update, I have Windows 8 up and running, with all my Infinity 3 files transferred. Development has resumed. :)

Once again, I plan on releasing Region at War before Halloween.

Yes. Zombies. The next release, "Region at War", will also introduce zombies in the World's End town. The story tells that the East Region Trading Company bombed an opposing town with gas containers, filled with experimental toxins. Now the town is boarded up, and the only remains are the citizens.. now red-eyed zombies. Even the children have been turned into zombies. Players must make it past the zombies, or maybe fight them, in order to conclude the main "Region at War" storyline.

Coming soon.
