On the continent of Sera, power has been evenly split between three nations
for decades. Reins, an industrious nation in the north. Balkia, a shining star
in the deserts in the south, and finally The Nobungian Union, a group of
allied tribal states in the east. War raged between all three nations, until
the Nobungians buckeled under pressure and agreed to peace. Despite that,
the feud between Reins and Balkia has continued for an additional 20 years.
Few people today even remember what caused the war to begin with, making it
a pointless struggle. Both the Leaders of Reins and Balkia are too bitter to
seek a ceasefire, and will not stop until the other nation is destroyed. While
they slowly destroy each other, the Nobungians sit and wait.


Our story begins with a young Reinian soldier named Lucian, injured on
the battle field from a stray arrow to the leg. Lucian has been sent home,
where he will finally be reunited with his love, Kira. Kira is the daughter
of one of the most respected men in Reins, Darius. He is the Head Captain
of the Knights of Rein and has held this position since the mysterious
death of the last man to fill this position, Gabriel.


The very same night of Lucian's return, a sinister force has returned to
Reins, one that was thought to have been destroyed long ago. A force
that seeks vengeance upon Darius, and will drag both Kira and Lucian
into conflict. Lucian and Kira's reunion is going to be cut short, and
Lucian is about to be thrust upon a dangerous journey. A man who thought
he was finally free from fighting is about to learn that his struggle has
only just begun.

Bloodsphere v.2.0?

Hey guys! I have been thinking about updating the game again, with more major changes this time (thus making it v.2.0). Most people seem to think the game is too hard so I wanted to tone down the difficulty, primarily by lowering encounter rates and changing item prices/gold drops. I also think I want to boost the defense power of armors because I have heard from players they dont make much difference, but that is something that would require testing for balance, something I really dont have alot of time with right now. So would anyone be interested in a new Bloodsphere with those changes? Or interested in testing this stuff to make sure I dont make the game too easy with my balances?

I think I found a glitch on the beginning of chapter 19...
if you return down to tarik's house from the mountains...
you appear on the extreme up tile of the map, and upon going two steps down you are teleported again to the mountains, because the teleport event is there, so you are effectively stuck without being able to return to the merchant one map down...
Really? Nice catch Rabitz, I'll have to check it out and fix it for the next version. Looks like you are near the end of the game I eagerly look forward to your review :)

As a matter of fact! I have just finished the game now! :)
I shall write my review in a while.

This game certainly shows that you have potential as a game storyteller, barring some issues that can easily be corrected! :)

Hope you make another game sometime in the future, if you have the time and desire, of course!

EDIT: My review is pending as of this moment! Hope you can relate to it and find it a good read!
okay this bug!?!?! , on chapter 3 ,when i in Raz Ghash city , i stuck not can move or die after be hit by container above rail, only one solution end this game and continue from last save with notice : don't standing above rail

note: i sorry for my english , i not native speak english !!!
Playing it and loving it!
Wish there wasn't so many random battle encounters.
But the story is very good.
I came almost till the end, but I can't figure it out a code, pls help

By the way game is great masterpiece, thank you for made such great game ;)
just started the game and just from the get go it seems to have a lot of potential. I'm really enjoying it! good job!
qusetion;cant beat or cant abort in battle by battling the ox-something like that in khalidad mines..it is too way powerful it cast paralyze and all characters cant move!
Hmmm... I'd recommend maybe getting some relaxant and trying to use it on Lucian before the creature kills him? Or maybe try leveling the characters up more?
lucian is currently on level 16,accompanied with cyrus..i guess im stuck for not having sp potion and hp potion.
If it's the creature I think it is, You dont have to fight it. The one that is in the mine in town, right? Because that is an optional quest so you can skip it and keep going.
Alex898, hope you don't mind a review in Spanish . I don't mean to flame your game, but I always speak my real thoughts of the games I play. If I like them, I will praise them, if I don't, I'll point out their faults.

REVIEW:

Bueno, primeramente debo aclarar que no termine el bloodsphere, por tanto no se si mas adelante mejore, solo lo jugue 6 horas y con esas 6 horas tuve para darme cuenta que no lo vale.

Primero la historia no tiene nada de entretenimiento: malo enmascarado roba tu prometida, pero resulta que la prometida no le interesa lo que le interesa es robar a una joven priest que se te une poco despues, el principal a pesar de que ama a lo prometida no esta dispuesto a cambiarla por la priest y escapa de la ciudad.

Mas adelante por una patetica excusa se une un thief y luego miss knight (miss porque missea demasiado) que al principio te anda cazando, luego la maga (que tiene como 6 tipos de magias y las 6 bajan lo mismo vs humanos. Vs monstruos 1 de esas baja un poco mas y las otras 5 lo mismo) y luego un mercenario (me falto 1 personaje que supongo sera el bard). el juego es totalmente linear, si vez 2 caminos y kieres ir al norte el prinicpal se detiene y dice "no, tenemos que ir al sur" y de ahi no lo sacas, siempre vas a tener que seguir un solo camino.

Para variar los enemigos de cada area (los encounters) siempre son los mismos, no hay variedad de eneigos y estos solo tienen 1 y 2 atakes. Los principales tambien carecen de variedad de skills. Los puzzles son solo picklocks de treasure chest con el thief que ya se habian visto en otros juegos y ke no tienen reto.

Otra cosa que no me gusto que para algunos podra sonar a una vanalidad es que tiene varias areas oscuras, otras demasiado oscuras y otras muy brillantes, es un fastidio para la vista tener que bajarle o subirle al bightness. Alex olvido que a la mayoria no nos importa si el juego se hace de dia o de noche.

La musica usa los defaults de rpgmaker asi que nada novedoso ahi. Los sprites y characters parece ser que son customizados por Alex (no me ha tocado verlos en tros juegos) y debo admitir que se ven bien.

En conclusion desgraciadamente bloodsphere es un juego mas del monton que no tiene mucho que ofrecer (al menos hasta donde lo llegue que fue el capitulo 12) por tanto mi sugerencia es que busques otros rpgs.






this game is so hard im only in the chapter 11!

BloodSphere Version 2.0 Question:Can It Use Old Save File From BloodSphere 1.3?


When I finish it, it should. I am not changing any scripts. Sadly it might be a little while before it comes out :/
Okay!I Hope You Can Complete It Quick Because The Enemy Is Too Strong And The Armor Doesn't Even Boost The Defence =/
