Final Fantasy: Discovery is an RGSS3 learning project aiming to mimic popular Final Fantasy series mechanics and blend them into a single game.

For decades, since the discovery of the Fire Crystal in Palamecia, the nation has been growing increasingly bold, looking to expand their territory and grip over Gaia. Of the five nations that make up the world of Gaia, only the Burmecian kingdom of Figaro has prepared themselves to challenge Palamecia, led by Emperor Vayne...

Fifty years after the Crystal's unearthing, a young girl, Ashe, emerges from where it once slept, claiming to have come from a gateway to other worlds similar to Gaia. She appears with a dire warning; the Crystals of Gaia and many other worlds are in danger. After a chance encounter with Lyra, the Princess of Tycoon, Ashe sets out with her to stabilize Gaia's Crystal of Fire...

A former Palamecian engineer and airship pilot, exiled from his home after an incident in the past, embarks on a mission to infiltrate Palamecia and observe, and if possible, steal the Fire Crystal from Palamecia. What he finds there launches him to join the bigger fight against the Empire...

A stalwart Dragoon, Reeve, from the Burmecian seat of power in Figaro, leaves the kingdom to work alongside Mysidian twins, Wedge and Vicks, on various assignments from the Elder of Mysidia. He hopes to reclaim the honor that the Burmecian Dragoons once held long ago, when his father was a Dragoon under the previous king...

In Figaro, the king's personal bodyguard, Beclem, finds a young female Caller on death's door after a long journey from Aquaria, and takes her under his care. The girl, Ellie, reveals that the Esperkind her people communicate with also feel that many worlds are in danger of utter collapse. They will need to unite the humans and Esperkind once again, as it was in the distant past, to overcome the battles ahead...

Across the mountains, in the Sanubian deserts where the famous Gold Saucer rises from the earth, the leader of a secret spy organization finds information important to Figaro's mission. The time for her to choose a side has come, and Parker, of the Gold Saucer Syndicate, always picks the winning side...

Far to the south, in Ivalice, a civil war is brewing between various political figures, coinciding with the relentless defense of the borders against demons emanating endlessly from a civilization long since destroyed. A young Lionguard trainee, Leon, is tasked with ending Ivalice's plight, allowing the once mighty nation to stand up against Palamecian advances...

In the Bisga Greenlands, home to chocobos, moogles, and people of all kinds, a reclusive hunter watches in horror as the Palamecian war machine marches on her lands. The hunter, Priscilla, vows to put an end to their destruction of Gaia's natural resources...

Deep undercover in Palamecia's military ranks, a rebel soldier who's been fighting the Palamecian Empire almost his entire life is about to bring his organization into the light, for the sake of defeating them. With his custom firearms in hand, Kelger joins the fray...

Final Fantasy Discovery is very much about bringing it all together, both in terms of mechanics and the game's story. I hope you enjoy it.

i'm working yesterday and have nothing to do..sorry just kidding bro..have fun.. :)
So this is how you spend your time on the job? That's wonderful.
I gotta try this badass sounding demo out...
Just a quick note, I'll be releasing what I have so far as part of the Release Something event on May 4th.

It's not as much as the first full-length demo will have, but it's much, much more than the Lite Demo had. So, something to look forward to.
I was going to do an LT of the lite demo, but upon hearing that you were releasing a new demo for RSW, I'll LT that instead after its release.
Looking forward to it. CC's helped me find a lot of mistakes.
CC is gifted in finding bugs. Or could be a curse? Haha
I think I found most of them actually. You have no idea how many times I've played through this two hours. Like, I never want to play it again lol.
I'm done playing the demo. The game was a lot of fun. I thought the battle system was a tad slow, but I'm impatient, so take that as you will. :3
I'll upload some feedback in a day or so.

I'm pretty sure I wrote myself a note to make starting ATB charges random between empty and 75% and then forgot to change the line in the code, heh. I *think* it's at 0-25% now. So yeah, some battles can start off a little sluggish if everyone rolls a low ATB start rate. Looking forward to your feedback dude!
*still downloading after 3 hours* My internet connection cries for lightspeed. I hope I'll get some fun battles which will inspire to make/influence the ones in my game.

That reminds me. There's a few things you could do to lower the MB. Read this tutorial.

I might be wrong, but you could probably lower the 69.4 MB animation file to around 45 or 50.
You could also turn some of those MP3s into WMAs, and/or cut parts of the music with Wavepad Sound editor.
Ugh...Full screen...And I can't seem to turn it off. I hate full screen in RPG Maker games!
Sorry to be a 'bit' harsh on you, Couillie, but this is a sin which deserves a punishment.

^ This.
Thanks, didn't know that. I think each RPG Maker has different key combination for full screen.
Protip: Include an option allowing players to use windowed mode or full screen, so you won't hear my whining.
hello
I cannot play the game because I get a window that says:
"unable to find VL Gothic font"

I also want to know if I need to install the RPG Maker to play this game...

Did you try installing the fonts from the "Fonts" folder? Anyway I think it should use the FFIV:TCC SFont font, and not VL Gothic font.

No, you don't need this engine. Don't know 'bout RTP as I have RTP installed on my computer.

You do need the RTP, as I had to install it on this new machine. Always install the fonts like Noel_Kreiss mentioned. For windows you can just rightclick and install.
Yes, the RPG Maker VX Ace RTP is required.

You can find it at the above link. I apologize, I didn't account for the RTP in the download file. The next release will take care of that.
