Warning: You must have the VX RTP installed on your computer.
If you do not have the RTP, download it here BEFORE you install the game.

THE CONCEPT
Does anyone remember the old Dragon Warrior III, the first Final Fantasy and Legend games? Games where you started by selecting your character classes. Your character had no personality, you just made them and set out to do good in the game.
I have always loved this idea. Especially in Final Fantasy Legends when you eat enemy meat your monster characters would transform into different monsters.
So I was thinking of using that basis to create a world with plots of land. Everyone that wants to can create a little land area, little towns, caves, and whatever else using the VX default graphics.
The lands get copied and pasted into the world. The towns, maps, areas, monsters, weapons and items get pasted in as well. There doesn't have to be any specific player characters. There doesn't have to be a beginning a middle and an end. Just your own little place.
You wouldn't have to come up with your own scripts. They would always be active in the game itself. So if you wanted to participate, you would only make maps and quests.
Then to get from land to land you can either teleport, use a boat, ship or use an airship. If the difficulty is too much for the player, the player can just go back to where they were before until they are strong enough to take on that particular plot of land.
Even if 5 people contribute a small town or a cave, it would have the makings of a great free form / open ended community game.
What does everyone think?
FEATURES
These are the features that appear so far in the current game version.
(currently writing the features)
METHODS OF PERSUASION
There is now a persuasion option to replace dueling. With persuasion, you can either bribe, admire, taunt or intimidate NPCs to get them to do what you want. Bribes are the easiest, but taunting improves their disposition toward you. Taunting them manipulates their personality so you can get what you want and finally intimidation is how you can either duel or anger them.
NPC PERSONALITIES
NPCs now have personality stats based on things like how loving, happy, athletic, powerful, rich, fearful, aggressive and other things like that. 16 stats now make up their personality and you can play with that. You can manipulate them through taunting, admiring, bribing and threatening them.
The tactics cannot go on forever though, because if their disposition drops to a certain point they stop talking to you and disappear. Guards will stop talking to you and throw you in prison or challenge you to a duel. Sort of like if you taunt an officer long enough you are going to jail.
HOW BOUT DAT WEATHER WE'RE HAVING?
Yes like every other game there is a weather. However, this system is complex. Each region gets its own weather patters and chances for rain, storms and snow. This allows for random weather based on the weather pattern. If there is a 10% chance of rain happening in the region. It is just that. The weather will act accordingly.
TIME KEEPS TICKING
The game keeps track of how long you have played as well as the game time. The game days will be counted.
DAY TURNS INTO NIGHT
There are six periods of a full 24 hour day with sunlight that acts accordingly. Because of the day shifting to night, that allows for pubs to open at night. It allows for people to be about their day and asleep at night. Church in the morning that ends at noon and creetures could out in the late night...
- dawn
- morning
- noon
- evening
- night
- late night
O'CLOCK
When you want to know how long you have played, just look at a wall clock. Unless of course you have a pocket watch to check. It will tell you how many days, hours, minutes and seconds you've been playing. There will also be an indication of how many game days you have played.
TRAVELERS ASK WHERE TO SLEEP
When you are on the go and need to replenish HP and MP, stop by the nearest Inn. You don't just pay your gold and get replenished. You get a room for the entire night. Better hope there is a room at the Inn for you.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE BEDROOM... WHERE TO SAVE?
Due to the changing landscape of the game from being a community project. Saving will be limited to beds and save points. These beds and save points cannot be altered or moved, because if they do it will corrupt someone's save point.
You cannot sleep in each and every bed, so check the Inn for a night's stay.
WHAT'S BEHIND DOOR #1?
There are slip through doors that contain NPCs and let the player through.
DAMN ITS LOCKED!
Because it would be pointless to have doors and not lock them, there are locks on some doors. Locks that either need keys or need to be picked. There will be more on this later.
WE'RE HAVING A PARTY AND YOU'RE INVITED
When you start the game, you start alone. You must recruit your party at the local Pub or Guild. Speak with a Guild Guide to have members add your party or to leave the members behind.
WHEN THE PARTY'S OVER
Your party members die in RPGs it is an unavoidable fact. You either need an item or skill to revive them. In this case you have another option. Drop by a priest or someone that can revive your dead party members... for a price.
GREETINGS, TALK, RUMORS, AND INFO
Each NPC has a lot to say. They start with a greeting that is based on their reaction to you, their name, their class, the weather, their faction or their race. Talk is the standard for RPGs, but beyond that there is rumors. Random things that people have heard. Finally there is info if you want to learn more about the person, their class, race or faction.
I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL... TO THE DEATH...
Challenge a NPC to a duel to the death. Test your might against anyone that will accept your challenge. However, depending on who challenged who there could be a bounty on your head for murder. If you challenge the guards, that is a crime as well, even if you run from the scrap. If you are a member of the faction of the NPC that you challenge, the faction may kick you out.
WAKING THE DEAD
So you've killed an NPC. Big deal. What happens if you needed that NPC for a quest? You revive the bones of the NPC! Even if you find bones...
IT IS GOOD TO BE SO WANTED
When you have killed an NPC or challenged the wrong NPC to a duel, you will have a bounty on your head. The guards will chase after you! When they catch you one of 3 things can happen.
1. Pay the bounty with gold.
2. Go to prison
3. Die for your crimes!
DO THE CRIME DO THE TIME
As stated before, if you are caught by the guards you can go to prison. Each castle has a prison / dungeon. Each kingdom has guards and soldiers, you will go to that kingdom's prison or dungeon. That does not mean you serve hard labor, that just means you easily go to sleep and wake up however many game days later. Quickly serving your time.
I'M BANKING ON IT
There is a banking system that will give you a percentage for each day that your gold is in the bank. You can only deposit gold in sums of at least 1000.
THIS TIME... ITS PERSONAL
There are personalities in the game that will affect your stats when you level up! Jocks will have more HP than intellectuals. Devouts will have more spirit than those with seductive personalities.
- Jock (high HP)
- Intellectual (high MP)
- Psychotic (high Attack)
- Pessimist (high Defense)
- Devout (high Spirit)
- Seductive (high Agility)
HOW DO I LOOK?
Like old school games you can customize the look, name and class of each character. In fact you can even chose to make your character a creature.
NOW THAT IS SOME HEAVY STUFF!
Treasure chests, stones, everything that is pushable has a weight to it. So it is not just push rocks, it is push chests, boxes and other fun things. However, you need to be strong enough to push them. Maybe an item would help or a character class would help you push them?
PETER PIPER PICKED A PECK OF PUZZLING PUZZLES
There are more than just stereotypical push block puzzles. There are level and switch levels. Combinations, riddles and even puzzles that can only be unlocked based on the time of day!
STAY BACK YOU FOUL FIEND!
NOW THATS HOOOT!

CloseSounds a little confusing, you have alot of decent ideas there but to create a 'decent' game of that level on your own would take forever. I think you should scale it down a bit, forget the custom creation of islands thing, players who want to create their own islands will download a game/rpg maker themselves. Rather than make players able to create their own lands, why not make a very large area containing multiple islands but to unlock certain parts you need to find out how to enter them through Rumors or like you said, certain times of day. Whenever I enter a new area on a game like that, I get excited about what I'll find and who im gonna meet there, by making my own areas the excitement is gone, the only reason I would make my own games is not for me to play, but for others to play and feel that same excitement, thats what you should be aiming to achieve.
I like the fact that theres no beginning, middle or end, just endless play where your able to go and do what you want. The screens look amazing too. Nice work! From what I've seen here I'll give it a 9/10.

I know this is a very old post, but this game has been flourishing on forums. It does everything that you say. Lands are interlocked and you go from land to land. There is now a plot for players to follow that go from one land to another to another.
There was a major update recently. Do you mind making a blog about what went into it? I'm curious...

Wow this is probably the first time I've updated this site since a month into the project everything is new... I will still blog :-)

People contributed so much that they are all working on their own VX games now. If they fail, World Crafters will grow hungry to consume their games.
I have to say this sounds like a very interesting game and from the different aspects and sounds like it would be quite enjoyable, only problem is I click on the download link and it comes up with a page saying
Not Found
The requested URL /rpg/Xtra.exe was not found on this server.
could anyone help or fix this problem so i can download the game?

wow still no replies? I guess I wont be able to see what this is/was like then, reading the description had me all excited too :(
Yea i was reading about the game for a while third time I've come across it and since i finally had a bit more free time.Figured i would download and play it since i get this error(The requested URL /rpg/Xtra.exe was not found on this server.)I cannot download it as of now.I would prefer it if that was fixed or someone told me where i could get the game at.I like Maia's other games and this did sound so interesting.
Thanks in advance to whomever responds.

After a little checking around i figured it out.There were some minor changes to the file name.Anyway the link you should follow to obtain the game right now is below.If that no longer works cut off the part that says Xtra.10.3.exe and follow the link that way.
http://cixe.planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/rpg/Xtra.10.3.exe
http://cixe.planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/rpg/Xtra.10.3.exe
Ok I pasted the link that you wrote in below and it works so I'm downloading it as I'm sending this, so for anyone wishing to download the game this is just confirmation that the link works and thickheaded_1 thx for your help finding the download link.
Yay three cheers for thickheaded_1
Yay three cheers for thickheaded_1
I've encountered another problem. In the game once i get to 2hours 1minute and 13seconds it says something about needing a password, then when i enter something (obviously not the correct password) it says it's past the demo time, anyone know the password?

I hope that someone saved that file, because I am deleting it from the server. I've discontinued all of my games and supporting them. I have a feeling the game's rating will take a plunge. Only 3 people knew that special link and 3 people know the time lock link and they are the beta testers :-)
Goodbye for a while.
Goodbye for a while.
Aww... and i was looking forward to seeing how this game shaped up well thats too bad :(
Its was quite the idea to begin with though.
Its was quite the idea to begin with though.
It's nice to see that you've decided to pick this project back up. I'm still curious as to what it will play like,but im glad to wait for it.The good things come to those who wait and all.Anyway I'll still be here looking forward to see the fruits your labors and of course those who helped.^^

I wonder if the rating system on this site is accurate... This project shot up to five stars and all of my other games were sucked down to 0 stars.
