If there's one thing that pops out at me, it's who the heck "he" is in the final sentance of the story section. Though, I might suppose that you're talking about the leader of the bandits? Possibly.

So, with that in mind, I'm thinking it can be something like...
A group of bandits kidnapped the king, and demanded a ransom. A day passed with no response. Days became weeks, and weeks became a month. Deciding that enough was enough, they decided to give an example of how serious they were, and burnt a village to the ground.

Akage has trained herself in the way of the blade, speding years in dedicated isolation. When she finally came home, she found a burnt, charred mess. She searched frantically for survivors. When she found one, she learned of a mysterious man in a mask. With ideas of vengeance in her head, Akage sets out to search for this man, regardless of what else stands in her way.


...or something like that. I think the rest is okay-ish, but, maybe putting the credits in a different tab (that would be after you get a gamepage), or under a hide-tag? I dunno.
Ok, I'll try this one too. I wrote right what I had on my mind. By the way - I'm not native speaker, as you see: :)

This is a story about trading during the war. Prices are different in all towns around. One town needs a food but it has plenty of weapons, cause it has Castle with blacksmiths in it. Other towns has expensive weaponstore, but you can buy cheap drugs here.

You play with trader Jo, who must expand his balance to get away from war-torn island.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just started with rpgmaker as well as with programming, so this is just my first experiment. If you think that game seems empty, you're right. I'm publishing it here just because I'm doing it all by myself and testing this (even this little) game alone is kinda hard.

So I please, if you have some free time, take a look at this game and tell me bugs that you'll find. I'd appreciate it.

--
btw. Prices aren't balanced properly. There is a chance, that you'll never get 10 000 gold. And even if you will, it won't show you Victory screen or the like.

So, the game has a pick-up-and-deliver mechanic, and the protagonist is trading between towns (nations?) in order to escape the island where the war is taking place. Though, I'm questioning this statement about collecting 10,000 gold, and showing the victory screen. That translates in my head that it takes 10,000 gold to charter a ship off the island. Which doesn't seem terribly realistic to me, but, if there is some other reason why the protagonist needs that kind of money (he/she/it/whatever is in debt?), that isn't quite explained.

Aside: Have you played Wing Commander - Privateer, Privateer 2 - The Darkening, Freelancer, or, are you looking forward to Star Citizen?
Ah yes.. My game was denied due to description. It said that description need a little work of wording...


Here is my description
Black sheep...
Black sheep...
Come and eat all my sad dreams..

There is a girl named Nina who always had a nightmare. Everytime she got nightmare, her brother will wake her up and calm her down. Her brother even brought the music box so Nina will stay calm.
That night is same like always yet it's kinda different. Nina slept and had a nightmare as always, but she wake up every 10 minutes and she realize that her brother gone to somewhere. In order to get her brother back, she exploring the night...

There are 3 endings in this game. 1 good end, and 2 bad ends.

Marrend - As you said, protagonist here is trading between towns (every town has different issues. 10 000 gold to victory is temporary goal in the game, but it's just like you said, again. We can assume that 10,000g is enough for ship, rent and other outlay. In game player have his own chest (at home) where he can put his money. When he'll have enough gold, he can submite victory or continue with playing. I don't really think that this is just only issue why my text was denied.

Btw. I know all these games (I'm interested in games in general) but space games aren't really my favourite. Why do you asking?

@Prince89: I think the main reason why your description was denied is that what description you do have is very minimal. It does not provide players the incentive to play your game. As for why I asked if you played those games, there's two reasons for that. One is because I think they would provide a lot of inspiration for a game like this. Another is because I happen to be working on a space-trader for an event, which is very heavily inspired from those games!

@deeno: More than a few grammatical errors in there! Corrections/modifications below

The first night the box was used, her nightmares remained. Yet, this night, her brother was not there. Or anywhere else in the house. Where did he go?

@zilgaant: Darigaaz, what's with the capitalization of every other word? Er, anyway, my general take on that lies within the quote-tag (because the hide-tag hates the list-tag, amongst other things).

Skip the cheesy stories and plunge into real strategic, and fast-paced battles with full custom characters! Four maps to grind your levels with, and a hundred floors worth of boss challenges! Can you defeat all of them?

Enjoy:

  • The fun of grinding!

Level up, collect equipment, runes, and grathnodes! Perfect your characters with titles and achievements that will grants you additional stats and stuff!

  • Simplistic story!

This isn't meant to be a very story-heavy game. The focus is on the gameplay, pure and simple!

  • Over 60 classes!

Each having their own strengths, weaknesses, and abilities to make your party unique!

  • Small maps!

Tried of getting lost? Shouldn't be an issue with the maps of this game!

  • Boss Challenge!

One hundred floors worth of dungeon, each with their own boss! Finding the right class/ability combination is key!


I'm not quite sure what you mean with your last bullet point. Fast paced battles where players can focus on fighting, and nothing else? I feel like I'm missing something huge with this statement, as it seems a rather obvious one.

Also, I would suggest that, after getting a gamepage, setting up those videos as a separate media page, and not within the body of the description. Same kind of deal with the credits. Put them in a different tab after getting a gamepage.
@Marrend : Thank youuuu >.<
That was fast btw O.o

first question, how do i use the list tag? i'm n00b on bbcode too sowwy D:

@Marrend : Sowwy againn i forgot i can copy if i quote >.<

For your information: It's "sorry". Not "sowwy". Also, you can edit your own posts!
Is there anything wrong with my description for my game. I posted it above.

Don't know if it got denied for since it doesn't say.
Don't know how my other game. I had over a year ago got accepted.

-------Edit:
Anyone willing to help?

@djking: Oops! I probably didn't notice your initial post, as I was in the process of typing up a response to somebody else!

Anyway, there's a bit of weird wording in there. For example, I'm not sure if "class" is the right word to use, as two of the three examples that you provide are races (ie: demon and dragon). I would probably use the term "heroes" then use "with a demon, dragon, and slayer of titans being among them". That's just me, though.

You you really have to keep using "our world, Zyia"? Once it's established that the name of the world is Zyia, you could just use "Zyia" or "the world".

I'll try that.
Still not good enough :/

This is a story about trading during the war. The whole country is in a war, every single journey is dangerous cause bandits on the roads and everyones have a bad times.

You play as a trader Jo, who must earn some money to get away from war-torn island. In one town you'll buy some goods (drugs, food or weapons) and then you can sell it in other towns (you can sell it in same town you buy it, but it isn't worth it. You also have to watch over your Popularity status because more popularity equals cheaper goods. There are hidden ways to increase your popularity.

As I said at the beggining, you have to keep eye to safety of your group (you play with only one hero, but he has group of people, who helps him on the roads) while travelling. For example:


  • you have to keep eye on quantity of your weapons, which makes you stronger and able to defend
  • you have to feed your group on the roads or you will starve to death

Your goal is, as I said, earn certain amount of gold to escape island and start to live awesome life without fear of death.
