[EVENT] CHAIN GAME - RMN STYLE!

Posts

author=Deckiller
Progress has been steady -- looking forward to the graphics :) Take your time -- I won't have the chapter done until the end of the week anyway. Just a list of things I need/really want and are not sure of the status:

- The battlers (pretty much a necessity)
- Alien monster sprites similar to the ones in the akropolis set/game demo. The bandit monster sprites, etc.
- A one-tile starfighter charset (or something with one in it...for chasing shuttles)
- Color-fixed Chrono Trigger guardian boss sprite with the bit flunkies (ideally)
- Galaxy map (especially since we're gonna have quite a few planets - I believe Dudesoft has this in his queue)
- I might need some help fixing the colors on the battle animations...I'll see if I can do that myself.

1. shouldn't the ones working on the chapter make their own battlechar? It... shouldn't be too hard. I don't think waiting for the others to make graphics would be the best of idea. (or did you guys agreed on it in the beginning ? I have no clue)

All I can muster so far
and

TENTACLES!

3/4/5/... I got nothing.
Welp.

I don't mind making battlers.... However they are not pertainant until the end... Just use rtp for now, with the battlers I have in mind we'll have to make special arrangements anyway.

Yeah, I'll definitely need that extra week. Expect a full chapter by the 23rd.

Breakdown:

Mapping: 90 percent
Database: 80 percent
Eventing: 30 percent
Cutscenes: 5 percent

So this is what I was thinking of doing for the battlers if I wasn't clear... Deckiller, which sprite are you planning on using for your chapter's character?

00 Hero 01, bottom row, 3rd from left. Dark hair girl.
Oh God, I hate this chipset. Hope it's useful but, ugh! So much hate for it! There's a part for the bottom of the first four walls near the top of the chimney. Now that I think about it I could just fix the walls to make them three tiles high but fuck it! I'm too tired! Hope this helps Deckiller! And let me know if there's anything chip-wise you need. I've got some more stuff I'm ripping which should be okay, but ugh!

Alright, Deckiller... How do you want the gamepage to look?? Anyone got templates or whatever?
Hm, how about we use the 4-colours theme we've currently got going. Maybe using the darker blue for the textbox colour as it's easier to see the lighter colours on it as opposed to the darker colours on the lighter background?

Hmm. Good point.

I trust your design choice!

As for work on my chapter, it's getting there. I pretty much have to finsih this weekend, not only due to our time constraints but also because I'll be starting school next week. Lots of responsibilities. I'm running a department at work full-time while going to school full time, but I'll manage!

So finishing is a must! :O I guess my advice is polish off what you have so far and don't add anything extra. Loose ends are a bonus for next creators! Good luck, my man.

Game page is pending but will be up soon.
Wow, these resources are epic!

Good job, guys!

Sweet. I'm going to be busting my rear end the next couple days to get this chapter done.

Edit: I'll get you some actual screens in a bit.

I think you can post them yourself, I added you as a Dev... Also if you want to blog or anything else, post demos etc, should be accessible to you. Click our Manage Games menu to do so.
If Dev doesn't give you that power then I'll upgrade you further or whatever. I don't know how this shiz works.

Shizzazz :)

Most of the heavy lifting left in my chapter are cutscenes and one or two more boss battles to make. I'll just use placeholders in some areas, such as the bandit base boss.
I'm dropping out. It strikes me that I have literally no interest in making a chapter for this game.

I will play it, though! I do have interest in that!

Alright, you will be missed.
Hope you enjoy the game at least!
