I've added to Epiquest 2, this time fleshing out the intense path to get to Dragonheart Castle via Dragonshort Heights. It is named for an elder king that slayed a dragon atop a mesa. It is in the dragon's nest that he built his castle to call home. Three generations later, the castle still stands strong.
Here is a runthrough of the alpha:
To the south east of the castle are the ruins of a stronghold that was destroyed with what dwells inside. The two villages next to this stronghold are destroyed too and a third is threatened to be destroyed, because they ran out of virgins to sacrifice. The stronghold looks EXCELLENT. Inside and outside. A giant quake ripped the stronghold apart and its destroyed on the inside and the outside.
I detailed the "badlands" of the overworld map that should make it more interesting for the player. Full of paths and stuff. Even though I finished the exterior and interior of the stronghold, I'd still like to build a dungeon below it. Speaking of dungeons, Dragonheart Castle needs a route to escape from its dungeon.
It shouldn't be too long from now that the game is completely mapped out and I can start a real play through with enemies, weapons, skills and equipment :-) Other than the dungeons, the last map will be the final location. The final location is done, it just needs details like staircases, bookshelves and things like that :-)
As for the story, its probably gonna be scrapped, just because some of it just seems very implausable and forced. So I'm going for more of a generic story, because Dragon Warrior was about rescuing a princess and Dragon Warrior 3 was about finding your father.
