This RPG Maker game has been in the works for almost 10 years. It has gone through so many iterations that I've lost count how many times I've restarted over this RPG.
As of the current variant, you are now a lone character summoner who can hire up to seven different mercenaries to join your crew. You can swap them in and out of your party as you please, provided you have the money to do so. Each mercenary is a specific class and only you can decide the best setup for your character party.
The majority of the game is free-flowing story, similar in nature to Morrowind or Oblivion. There is a main plot thread, but you can choose to follow or drop it as you please. When finished, this will most likely be the last RPG I'll make. I'm going to finish it one of these days!

Features will be expanded upon later in the Feature pages but they include:
- Open ended gameplay with seven different characters you can hire.
- Loot system
- Summoning system
- Blue Magic system
- Thieving system
- Alchemic system
- Enemy Card system
- Joint Magic Sphere system
- Restockable chest system
- Three major guilds to join: Fighters Guild / Mages Guild / Thieves Guild.
- And more!

There is a lot of ambition in this RPG. And over 10 years, it definitely shows I've been slowly, but surely working on it. Perfecting and fine-tuning it. It is still far from over. But the main core mechanics are done and all said features above (minus the guilds, since those will be built alongside the maps and events) are basically finished and implemented. I'll even include a few mini-games or two in there at the tail end of production when I know for sure the game is going to be completed. I'm pretty busy, so check back every now and again for more info.

Turning it in...

I have to admit the reality: I will not be finishing this game.

I grew too ambitious for my own good and real life has beaten me down so hard that I have put this to the wayside for far too long that coming back to it and all the various things, secrets, coding, etc. confuse me now more than anything. I've been stuck trying to figure out all that I was trying to do and it could take a long time before I'm ever back up to speed to how I was when I was fervently creating this game. By then, would my motivation be as it was and would real life truly give me the time left to complete it? Doubtful.

So what's left to complete? Well, there are the introduction and finale locations left to map. Terraco caves (an endgame-like lava/cultist cave area), and a dream world optional section. That's all the maps - rest of the world has been mapped out. Everything else has been created. Also, all the NPCs and events for the story and sidequests must be completed. That's a huge chunk right there and probably my biggest hurdle. And the implementation of some mini-games, and bonus timed events related to such that were planned. That's still a crapton of work left to do for someone who no longer has time to game make and has a family with two kids.

So my question to all of you would be: should I just release an alpha build with no promise or expectation of completion or should I seek to have someone take over and I hand all my documentation, story notes and more for them to complete?

I'm sorry for all who were expecting this for so long, but sometimes life doesn't give us what we want. It certainly didn't give me what I wanted and this is one of the casualties of that. I pray for your understanding in this and apologies to all.

Yes, yes it did. Since my priorities of finishing up my Legend of Zelda fanfic and my Megaman fangame are done and over with, I can come back and refocus on this project. Which would then make this...the ONLY project I'm working on solely!
Been keeping up with this for a while and I have to say, it looks really fluid and amazing. Keep up the great work homie! :)
I really want this to be finished.It looks great.If you Darkflamewolf are reading this so please get it together.You have been working so much on it.And please let the walking speed be faster than in Land of dreams :) .

There are two games I've been looking forward to getting finished forever now, this and Dragon Fantasy Remade. I was looking forward to Saga of Eternity (?) and the Luigi Chronicles expansion pack to Super Mario RPG: The Seven Sages, but those fell off the face of the earth.

Granted, I'm still wondering if I'll be able to experience either of these in this lifetime. *shrug*

Why has this game not received more attention?

As far as straight-up-RPGs go - this looks like a great, beautifully made game.
Sometimes I wonder if it'll be too simple of an RPG for many people.


Do you Finish This Game
It's been kinda on permanent hiatus until my life gets in order.

Is there anything you've got so far that's playable? Maybe you could just release a demo of that to hold us over until then?
Honestly, I had hoped to complete all the maps first before releasing what would basically amount to 'an alpha build.' No real story, no real quests to speak of, just exploring the world and opening chests and fighting monsters, and fighting some pre-set bosses, etc. But I'm still not sure yet.

Ack! I know it's no motivator (you've got stuff going on), but I've been looking forward to this game for years. Watching the old Youtube videos got me all excited to see what was in store.
I should honestly hide this game page or take it down for a time until I get sufficiently close to completion, because right now, real life has not been kind to me for literally almost 4 years straight and it doesn't look like it's letting up anytime soon. Thankfully, I still have all files, databases, maps, dev notes and more (all of it) backed up on several drives. So the overall project isn't going anywhere. I just need the time.

man nah I'd say keep it, it's fun to look at the screenshots every now and then even if the game isn't getting finished.
Can we have a gameplay video? This looks good, some of the resources are good. The battle system looks good, the characters look nice and the rest come from FF6/FF5.

These are the blogs I've watched before to enjoy the gameplay of Amulet of Fate. They're all from the battle system, so I hope that's okay.
Subbed. This game has always looked interesting and I look forward to seeing what Corfaisus can do with it.
