I've stopped production on this game, so it is now, officially cancelled.

You will need the VX RTP to run this game:
http://www.rpgmakerweb.com/download/additional/run-time-packages

To install:

First, make a new folder, and call it Tristian: LoTL.
Put the compressed download into that folder as well as the Audio folder and extract like normal with WinRAR or WinZip.
Install the fonts included if you don't have them yet.

Basic Controls:

Apart from the usual arrow/directional keys:

Alt + Enter - Toggle Full Screen mode
Enter/Spacebar/Z/ - Action key
Esc/X - Main Menu/Cancel an interaction
Shift - Sprint
Left Shift + Z = Pull an object towards you ( like a crate or boulder )

out the door

13 days before I am supposed to 'celebrate' being on this site for 7 years, i've decided to leave rmn as well. having grown uncomfortable with the circle-jerkers ( aka the devs whose games get the most attention and all their friends ) and the few rotten apples here, it's simply become an unhealthy place for me to hang around.

while i won't be posting here anymore, i'd like to stay in contact with some of the members here by ways of building an e-mail list ( yes, it's a little different from the usual chatrooms like discord/skype, but i see them as massive timesinks. i never get anything done ) informing subscribers about my future projects. so... if you're interested, drop me a pm and we'll see where the road takes us. the simple gesture would mean a lot to me, because it shows that some of you still care. who knows? maybe you'll get a surprise or two.

maybe.

maybe some of you hate me for broken promises i couldn't keep, maybe some of you lost your respect for me because I couldn't keep doing what I loved to do. or maybe some people just hated on Enelysion because it became popular...

who knows? it doesn't matter anyway.
i'm going to keep on being a creative workaholic.

So long, and keep gaming
i was always too serious for this place, anyway

I know early 2017 is a long way off, but I'll really try to get LoTL done long before then. That's a worse-case scenario release. Maybe I can manage the third quarter of 2016 if I get lucky ( bare in mind that Enelysion was in development from late 2010 up until completion in November last year, so a 4-year development cycle seems the norm for me >< ).

But I'll make it up with a demo. I promise. =) And yes, I wouldn't mind an altered review score, Addit. XD
Nobody chooses the life of hype. The life of hype chooses them.

But 2017 as a possible release date? Isn’t that stretching it a bit too far from now? Why not just try to aim to get it done sometime by next year and just see how it goes from there? Hmmm…I guess that means that there’s still a lot more work left to do on this, then. Oh well, I can wait. At least we’re getting a new demo by next year, so that’s good. Maybe that’s the perfect time to do a re-review for this and see if the ol’ score manages to change.
I won't say LoTL is over-hyped, let alone a hyped game. =) I prefer a quiet life, after all.

But as soon as I have a new build ready for testing, I'll send you a PM.

Updated the Target Completion Date. I highly doubt I'll finish LoTL within the course of 2016 ( custom sprite work takes a long time, and I'm taking my time over the dungeon design as well ), so I've moved it to early 2017. I will be releasing another demo, some time next year, only this time it takes place at the game's mid-point, where the player has access to most of the game's systems and characters. Also, the plot tends to thicken too.

I already have someone on board who is willing to look over the game's script ( maybe I can twist his arm regarding other stuff too XD ) but I am looking for at least four good testers with experience in most fields of RM ( writing, gameplay, general design etc ). That is, if people aren't too busy messing around with MV... ;_;

I am really sorry about the game being pushed back. ><


*Sees new post*
*Sees the need for beta testers*
*One of the most hyped games atm*
*gets excited*

Boy am I bad at this,

I guess I have some good experience with RM, perhaps less experience when it comes to scripts but I like myself a good story.
And I'm good at giving criticism I guess.
(Told you I'm bad at this)

Idk, if you need another good tester, I'd me more than willing to help you out, despite being (somewhat community-wise) new to the community.
I could probably make some room for testing besides my MV project, so yeah.

If you need anythin', I'm here.

*goes back to awkward angsty corner*

Added a World Lore and History page. I take my world-building seriously, after all. =)
Their relationship shall be brief, but glorious. I do intend to craft a game that will stick with the player long after that 'Fin' screen fades away. And as you so rightly said, nhubi, yes, I am a visionary.

No one will stop you, the Trianna boat has been sailing for a while. It's destined to run aground, but it will be a wonderful voyage while it lasts.

It's the RMN Minnow (and yes you are old, or know how to google if you get the reference).
I'm shipping Tristian and Ianna. Don't anybody stop me.
Wow This is like the best game in the world
It will be back by mid-September. May do a two-year anniversary blog or something.
Well, at least this time I don’t have anything to worry about.

Good luck in the contest, though. You’re extremely fortunate enough to work alongside some great talented people there in that lineup. That’s almost like a freakin’ dream team, with you, unity, Red_Nova and JosephSeraph working together. If you guys can’t hit a home run with that lineup then no one can!

(Forgive me, I’ve been watching a lot of baseball lately, lol.)
^ Exactly that. But production will resume as soon as the Jam ends.

Status change? I smell a contest game.
Don't worry about it. =) I might upload a longer demo ( 2-3 hours ) in the future that will introduce you guys to the rest of the cast, more game-play features, plox progress etc. And more TriAnna, of course, though I might hint at other relationships in the mix too.

Since it will be a while before the full game comes out and I will need to keep the interest level high enough. ^^
I want to download, but my left key doesn't work. I doubt I could play the demo by going right the whole time. :P
Yes, that's I mentally telling myself to avoid it at all costs. Its a sure fire way to destroy motivation and to delay the game's final release date. ><

Then again, I only have one hour of gameplay done and well, you know.

No. Not doing it. There's enouh Ace games as is.
