The RMW Chain Game has been in production for a couple months now. It is now complete, barring some polish: 11 chapters in total.

Storyline:

The Four Memory Songs - Sand, Fire, Water, and Wind - were sealed by the ancients to prevent an evil force from obtaining them. These songs only resonate with some people - the Shadowy Being is not one of them! So how does he obtain them? Hmm...

Join Gita, a daring adventuress, on her quest to find the Memory Songs. Along the way, she finds herself being deemed 'Eric the Silver Reaper'. Why is this? Play to find out!

What is a chain game?

I'm glad you asked. The idea is simple: everybody took a turrn creating a chapter in the game. When one chapter was finished, it was passed on to the next person in the chain. By the end, a bunch of people collaborated on one game!

This is a fun activity: everybody is invited to participate in future chain games. The idea is to just have fun with RPG Maker and make some games. Get goofy and enjoy yourself. Take a break from your serious project and throw together a chapter.

Part of the fun of making chain games is seeing how the storyline turns out. In this chain game, effort was taken to tie the plotlines together in the final acts and flesh out all the areas. Hopefully we succeeded! Thank you to everyone who participated and for keeping this thing alive to the end!

Gameplay:

Simple-yet-engaging battles, seven puzzle-driven dungeons, and plenty of exploration! Solve water puzzles, flip buildings upside down, create stepping stones, smash holes into walls, discover hidden treasure chests and paths...it's all here!

Well, I'm going to talk to Despain and see if he wants to lead the next one, but the idea is that it will be a very loose sequel to the first one. If you play the ending to the first one, you'll see why: it's certainly not a hard sequel, but it can have some of the same characters. Their arc doesn't even have to be the main story. If you want I can spoil the plot of this one to you in PM.

Boy am I ever stuck :)

In the building north of town I believe.

Has a tent and at least two rooms that have blue flames that turn the room upside down.
In the upper left of one room is a monster standing in from of a blue button.

I'm caught in a maze going between the two rooms through a hallway.

Can't seem to find anything else in the rooms and no exit door to the outside.

Can anyone help or am I destined to wander the halls and two rooms for the rest of my days ?? :(
@linkis
had you talked to one of the flames?

@Dec
I want your opinion of an ABS chain game because it would work very well without focusing so hard on the story, but I guess that's Despain's call, eh? Still want an opinion though.

Would love a good ABS game like Zelda, swing my sword and kill dem monsters :)

Actually I talked? with both Flames.
They did not say anything that I saw.
I thought they were just to turn the rooms upside down ????

Will go back and see if there is message from flames on different
part of screen that I did not see...
No, they won't say anything, I just meant pressing the action button on the flame to flip the room, sorry for the confusion.
Okay, so you already knew how to flip the room, I'll look at my file to see what you are stuck on, it probably had something to do with boulders but I'll double check.

Edit: okay, I need to check up, have you moved the boulder to the dead-end at the the other side of the room, climb the staircase and jump on the boulder? I know some people who were stumped on that.

yeah.....well now you know another :)

Thanks for the help...

oh no......I have to go back in there ???

Rats, was going to ask if I forgot anything cause I do remember some chests I could not get to and there is a set of stairs on against a wall in the back.
Guess I have to get the ball in place to get over to the stairs....

Off I go again :)

You don't need to, I'll finish this game when I get the chance.

@Ratty524: when you finish, please let me know where you put the ball so you can jump to the stairs :(

70 downloads....but I must be the only one playing cause no one else seems to be having a problem with flipping the rooms with a ball :(

I have tried many times but can't seem to get the ball in place to use the stairs and get on with my adventure :)

Please help me get my ball in position....thank you :)
@Linkis
Errr... that's hard to explain...

Who wants to start a video walkthrough?

So I finally flipped the room and found my way out.

Now I'm in jail :( and working my way up and out.

PROBLEM: I'm on I believe the 4th FL and came to a gate that says
it needs a key....of course :) problem is I can't find any more keys.

Is there a hidden key I might have missed ??
I did find that I could walk on top of the cell walls in jail but still
no key :(

Anyone know where some keys are ??? :)

Hmm (possible solution):


This is from memory, but did you fight a guy who threw boulders at you?


A video walkthrough would be great, especially if it's done later this month. Can't say any more!
Linkis

Sure did DK, I'm 1 or 2 rooms above him.
Gate is in the lower right corner....
Went all the way down to the cells and back up killing monsters
but no one drops another key :(
I'm really enjoying the game, the layout, colors, action and even the puzzles
except the part that stops me of course :)
author=Ratty524
I still think you're better off without battles. Sure, it won't make it an rpg, but it would still be fun to play.

more Alex less

uh

shit

p.s. is the next one going to be as laissez-faire wrt organization as the last one because that made it impossible for me to participate
Well, there were several points where the game was open up for hours, even days at some poitns, you just need to be active. The game was on RMW not RMN, if that is what you meant by 'impossible'.
that too. I was banned from rmw after causing the proprietors and many of the customers to have near-lethal heart attacks with my sick skateboard tricks. (that came fairly late into the project's life-cycle, though. leaving it up to luck of the draw is still lame.)
i'm stuck on chapter 9 in the song of fire dungeon and i'm at the last room(the one with tsuji)... there r these 3 monsters that keep popping up and the switches to control the fire... what am i supposed to do with the monsters & switches??? am i supposed to kill the monsters with the fire?????? if yes, then can some1 tell me how...
PLZ HELPPP!!! i dont know wat to do.......

And I still can't find all the keys.

We need a walkthrough :)

A video walkthrough would be a great idea.
Haha, sorry I was thinking of starting a walkthrough, except my computer can't record videos :(, maybe when the video walkthrough is done and I have time, I may start a written walkthrough for all of those who don't want visual spoilers.

Figured I'd try once more before giving up :(

I believe I am in Chap.8.
Looking for door keys.
I'm in the room just above the one with the tent to rest and save crystal alongside it. Also there is a switch.
In the room above, there is a door in the lower right corner and one soldier.

Does anyone know where the key for the door is ?????

Would hate to give up on this game, it was really enjoyable up to this point :)

Thank you to all those who worked on this game......
