Elven Legacy: Avachel's Grace

As stated in a previous blog, the demo is going to be released around the time of Christmas. So, I thought I'd compile a list of implemented features that will be appearing in the demo and point out some final adjustments to those features.

• A lore-rich plot that spans the entire Green Forest (80 maps not including dungeons and interiors) and portions of the human lands.

• Lumbar's decisions/responses will effect how Greenlore progresses. Its citizens will either become more kindhearted and forgiving or more sinister and cruel toward the humans than ever.

• Detailed characters that react to Lumbar's every decision, be it good or evil.

• Optional quests are entwined in the main plot and aren't there just to take up time or reward worthless items.

• Gather herbs essential to creating powerful potions or sell the ingredients off to a local alchemist for a nice little profit.

• Purchase a house in Greenlore and spruce it up with purchased furniture and a cat or dog.

There are several more minor features that do exist but aren't worth noting. A lot of these features have been given some last minute adjustments. The following are a few examples:

• There are more personal moments between Lumbar and Jupiterweb now. Even a possible romance option (not included in the demo yet).

• Optional quests now DO have a small impact on certain plot moments. An elf that Lumbar saved could find him later and reward him with additional items or even offer combat assistance.

• Gathering herbs now adds a small chance that Lumbar will find Moonlit Moss. This rare plant offers a quest-line that follows right beside the main plot.

• Another house has been added for purchase in Greenlore. Now Lumbar can either purchase a smaller house or a larger house. Each has its own benefits (despite the smaller one being four times cheaper).

That's that I suppose. The plot does continue on for quite some time considering that this is a demo. Took me four hours to finish it and I knew exactly what to do and where to go. None of these features will crash the game but I imagine the occasional minor bug or text error lingers.
