Fable of Heroes II: The Dark Ritual

When I first started making RPG makers games I was young and didn't have much going on in my life, I was free to just make games. I'm 30 years old now and have lots of responsibilities, as most 30 year olds have.

FoH 1 was made be myself and another, he went by the name of Tabris. It was a lot of work, but Tabris helped me a lot in designing the game. He's honestly a much better "programmer" than me, far better. He was also good at game balance, and that is something the first FoH is praised for. It had it's faults, like not being able to dash and minimalistic dialogue, but it was good enough to get a feature on the site. That to this day really makes me happy and honored. Wow, so that was back in 2010.

FoH 2 - Now with this game, me and Tabris had part ways, so I was all on my own for this game. It took a long time to learn how to balance numbers as well as Tabris, as well as write as well as him. I am happy with how the final product game out and hope people enjoy it. The game was much harder to make considering it was just one person doing this. However, even though I'm happy I still see that there are some flaws and things that could be improved.

FoH 3 - Rather than trying to improve upon Fable of Heroes 2 some more, I want to make a brand new game and use everything I've learned to max out the best game I can. I've been working on developing this game since before I released FoH2. I had ideas that I wanted to put into FoH2 but I knew that would slow down the production, and I really didn't want to go on hiatus via too much work to do. I like to finish products and get shit done. I knew that using my ideas for a new game would be better.

My new ideas: FoH 3 is going to have a much tighter balance and classes (characters) will be more defined. I'll have more of those classes too. I'm also planning on having slightly different paths the player can take, and those paths change the story slightly as well as offer different characters you can recruit.

When things are more solid I'll make a new game page and post images.

Thanks for staying with me, I'm such a small fry in this world but I don't do this for fame, I do it because I love this.

So I just realized something I forgot that was so basic…

I never updated the title game screen, right now it's the default title screen. I got so use to it I thought that is what it was. So I'm going to keep the game online for download, but I'm going to try and design a new title screen so the game feels more, "Original".

Sorry about that.

I'm going to release this game, during this month. I've testing everything I can and I feel it's ready, just doing some final tweaking.

Like the last Fable of Heroes game, I'm going to be updating and changing the versions as people find bugs and errors. However I'm hoping that will happen rarely. It was so long ago when I did Fable of Heroes 1, and I'm still grateful that it was a featured game on this site. I'm hoping this one comes close. Though being a man down and having a full time job has costed me a lot of time I could have used to make this game. Still I am proud that I finished something, it was my goal all along. If the game get's at least an average of 3 stars I'll be happy. And like the last game, all the feedback I get I shall use to grow and create more games.

Thank you all.

My beta testers are finding weird shit I never thought would be a big deal.

I'm getting everything ready and trying to make this game come out before 2015. I've gotten all the pieces nearly done. My goal is do make a solid game and have solid gameplay, and finish it. Get something done, that is the final and ultimate goal.

I've been working on this for almost 2 years, I think it's important to finish products, and if they turn out great, that is awesome.

I really hope people enjoy this, however if not, I'll use the exp (RPG JOKE) I got from this game to help perfect my next one, and yes there is a next one. Fable of Heroes III will be the final chapter.

I have finished!!

So after all this work I'm done. I'm going to let my friends beta test it before I put it up for download. If you'd be interest in beta testing the game, you can message me at dustsoft@gmail.com

Hopefully I'll be able to get it out in the coming months.
