Gabriel Landry is on the brink of re-discovering the lost art of White Magic. By simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time, Gordon Tullet, a young; yet talented Alchemist, learns the dark secrets and dangers behind White Magic. Framed for a crime he did not commit, he sets out to bring sense to the obsessive Gabriel.

Although this is an honest effort, aiming to bring a complete RPG experience, the game uses mostly default systems, and is a relatively short and sweet fantasy JRPG. Set cliché to maximum setting! Full speed ahead, into that forest dungeon!


The current download is approximately 1 hour in length, which is the entire first chapter, and about 20% of the full game. If the font is not showing correctly, please install MS Echoes which is included in the game folder.

The demo may not be the longest one around, but since this is my first real release, I wanted to get a grasp on what I am doing right and wrong. The next demo, will be a more complete package. It will include a improved chapter one, and chapter two; which will be more focused on bringing a better experience, based on the feedback I have received. Thank you so much for reading/playing my game!

I’m really open to advice, and critique about everything, so don't be shy, I promise I won't ever take offence!

Back in business.

Hey everyone… Huh? What do you mean, who are you? Don’t you guys remember me?

…Okay so I know I haven’t exactly been very active lately. I’ll come clean, White Magic has been quietly on hiatus for a little while now. You know how it goes: life, love, responsibilities, and all the crap that gets in the way of the important stuff - like making a game. However I’m here to tell you that White Magic is no longer on hiatus and is back in production. Since the official release of RPG Maker 2003 I’ve been chipping away at my old love.

I’ve also decided to re-release the demo, and this time just leave it up for good and let people actually PLAY it. It’s an improved version that’s been sitting on my computer for a long time now. The changes are minor: I addressed some issues, fixed bugs, added some small features and improved pieces of dialogue here and there, and updated it to the legal maker. The bulk of it remains the same though, so don’t be disappointed if you were hoping for a new experience. If you do come across any issues, please get in touch so I can fix them.

Anyway, I’d like to thank those 49 fake accounts I made subscribers for sticking with me through out the dry spell. You’re the best! Hopefully you’ll see more updates from me, as I do have more to show in the future that I’m keeping secret for now.

It’s good to be back!

It is really a pity that this game is not over.

I like the way you make games, and I think the simplest things are the best.

I liked the story in this game and it would be nice to see more.

It would be nice if you could finish it. I thank you in advance and I am waiting for the rest.
I came onto RMN this morning and saw White Magic buzzing on the homepage (no idea how or why) but I realised I never gave an explanation for cancelling this game, and that I probably should.

To be honest, I thought I could cancel this quietly without anyone batting an eyelid, since then I got a bunch of comments and even a five star review (which I still can't believe) so I'm sorry to the people that were holding on to this game.

I'm about 95% complete with a much bigger and brazen RM2k3 project, and though I love RM2k3 - my other game is fulling pretty much everything I ever wanted to do with it. White Magic was started at a time where I thought I would never be able to make a big project, so I made it this as a compromise to myself. I guess you could say my heart wasn't in it, as I was always thinking of "the other project that could have been". I tried hard not to cancel this, but I don't think I can continue on, not in RM2k3 anyway.

I just want to give a final big thanks to everyone who followed this project and gave me support. It's you that made me realise I had more to give, and more I could achieve. My dream project is nearly finished thanks to the confidence you gave, but I'm sorry that I had to step over White Magic to do it.

But I guess this cancellation is so you can focus on Villnoire instead?

This is... cancelled I guess? Or is someone still working at it? There are the dark secrets of white magic that want to be explored further...
This isn't dead, and neither am I! It's being very, very, very quietly worked on. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm so passionate about this story and I really want to tell it - if this game ever was cancelled I promise to release everything I've made including the chapters that no one has seen yet.

I thought most people who cared would be long gone, so thank you for that comment.


Oh don't underastimate the silent stalkers, they are often watching far longer than you would expect, I am just not as patient as some of them. ;)
Also I only stumpled upon it two months or so ago so I am certainly not one of them yet, at least not if it comes to this game, but I surely will be in the future. ;)

Anyways, glad that you are still doing okay and that maybe we can one day see this game in all it's glory..... (if it takes a few dozen years, than it takes a few dozen years.... I am patient enough for that if something catches my eye) it seems quite promising, at least from the bit I saw so far.

Good gamemaking to you and don't give up hope, there are always some watching I bet ;)

I really enjoy the demo. I like original games like this that aren't created on vxace with all of the defaults. This has a real classic and simple charm to it.


Thanks I really appreciate that, it's what I'm aiming for so I'm glad you feel that way. By the way, thanks to everyone who has left a comment, I don't ignore any of them!

This RPG looks very good, considering the fact that it uses RPG Maker 2003. Have you ever had prior experience with making role-playing games? I've only seen the screenshots, and it has pretty impressive graphics.
This game is so crystal clear, and ton of interesting features, and that live dialogues. And clean graphic.

Don't worry you have talent! :D
ok thanks!,
I'm making a game of myself,
=Fantasy Legend: Dark Countdown, Lol,
Just wanted to ask, if i could use that boss batle music, if i could use it for something EVIL! if my characters have to run :D or something, i've been on rpg maker 2003 like 3 years, i made RPG's then i was sick of it and i kept deleting it XD,

But keep up the goood work :D

How dare you politely ask for a song I have no rights to? How dare you!

Of course you can use it, everything in the project is free to public domain. All the music comes for Dark Chronicle and Rogue Galaxy. The boss battle song is called Exploder 1 I think. There’s another called Exploder 2, which is a slighter slower more orchestrated version of it. It’s good though. If you’re ever bored, or you’re looking for some new tunes for your own game I’d suggest listening to both soundtracks on YouTube, there’s some great songs. =)

You can download it from Blue Laguna or just take it from my game folder.

You got me scared there :D, thanks the boss music, with the man turning in that monster, it kept stuck in my head, and i got a feeling that i could do everything really an awesome music, and thanks :D your Game made me inspired AGAIN THANKS!!
I'm gonne try hard to make a Good RPG!, I'll upload some pics and get my game on the site, then you can see, demo still have to wait though xS, i practicly just started :D thansk mate
