Karuna and Aurelie were friends. Then Aurelie went off and found the infernal armor of Ellicide and became the Evil Overlord Darkloft. Karuna is the only one who can stop her. But Karuna loves Aurelie, even now.

Luxaren Allure is a medium-sized RPG (12-20 hours) that follows Karuna and her allies as they explore the isles of Luxaren and confront a former friend who now wants nothing but destruction. This is a wlw (women who love women, lesbian romance, yuri, etc) game with an all female playable cast.

Also included are:

  • Title Screen Art, Face Portraits and Illustrations by M-3-1 (http://m-3-1.deviantart.com/)
  • Side View CTB Battles, with animated heroes and (semi)animated enemies!
  • New tilesets and battlers, made just for this game!
  • No random encounters. All enemies are visible on screen, and each triggers a different enemy party.
  • No RTP needed! Most resources are custom, and everything's included with the download.
  • A simple crafting system.
  • A short, character driven story that plays with the standard RPG formula.


Characters:


Karuna has been training with the School of the Unwavering Blade for years, and is considered the best choice for defeating the evil of Darkloft. She's serious, strong-headed, and confident, but her reasons for choosing to be a hero might not exactly be selfless...


Chisa is Karuna's self-proclaimed squire. She's timid but very strong, if a little naive. Her loyalty to Karuna is unquestionable.


A mage from the Naga clan, and one of the few of her kind that does not view humans with suspicion. Carefree and laid-back, she quickly finds herself fascinated with Karuna's quest and even more fascinated with Karuna's squire.


The great-granddaughter of the paladin hero Estes, Lynette is a well-balanced warrior from Rezael who has trained for years to master both the physical and magical arts to make up for the fact that she didn't inherit her family's holy magic powers.


Now known as Overlord Darkloft, the evil one who has placed the isles of Luxaren in dire peril. Karuna has so many questions for her. What will happen when they finally meet again?

Scripts used:
  • Yanfly's Ace Core Engine, Message, Menu, Equipment and Battle systems!
  • Kread-EX's Animated Battlers!
  • Fomar0153's Compatible Customisable ATB/Stamina Based Battle System!
  • Coelocanth's Item Crafting system!
  • NeonBlack's No AutoShadows


And a special thanks to Red Nova, LockeZ, Crystalgate, Archeia_Nessiah, GreatRedSpirit, and everyone else in the Rpgmaker.net forums for their fantastic suggestions, advice, and general help!

Beta testers!? No, this game needs a goddamn exorcist!

Embric was freakin hilarious. Back when I played it I was on a different RM site and even mentioning the game would warrant a ban warning (although such was never stated in the rules). I dunno how that works here.

But yeah if you ask on the forms somebody would likely provide a list and you'd get more than just the RPG crowd answering.

Embric had a lot of raunchy material for sure and definitely isn't for everyone (and has it's flaws) but I enjoyed it. ^_^ Didn't play all the routes ever but it was a fun little romp for what I did play.
figured id find more passion asking here thoe but ok
Well, I only got one more dungeon left to go and I’m finally done with this game. Yahoo, freedom!!!




E-Er…I mean, how unfortunate.

And, hell, I was actually surprised I managed to score all eight pieces of the Crystallized Hope on my own without having to use the tips section. I thought I missed one and wasn’t gonna get that sweet, sweet blade.

Anyways, I was gonna say, on Normal mode, through those last couple of dungeons once Lynette leaves the group - holy shit, why is this game suddenly even more harder than it!?!?!? It’s like god's punishing me now for getting this far and doesn't want me going any farther. Thank god, unity, you put in the ability to toggle the difficulty settings at will - because f**kkkk!!!

But I have enjoyed my overall experience with this one, so consider this a pretell sign that you ain’t getting a fail mark.

(…well, maybe, lol.)

Thanks, Addit, and kudos for sticking with it! ^_^ Just a warning, I went overboard with the last dungeon and it's a bit of a slog. Best of luck, and looking forward to seeing your review :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

You’re not kidding - it’s a f**king gong-show down there! What were you thinking!? This is like the Infinity dungeon in Breath Of Fire 2 all over again except I don’t have Nina around to scare away the baddies like these ladies do.

Looks like it’s gonna be a rough ride from here on out... I might have to toggle a difficulty level down if I can’t manage to get by on Normal mode. Still, I shall try!

I was thinking "Final Fantasy IV's last dungeon was cool. Maybe something like that." But I think it turns out that I'm the only one who liked that huge final dungeon. XD;;;;
Was FF4’s final dungeon really that big? I don’t remember it being too long to complete compared to other final dungeons that I've played.

This is more like Kefka’s Tower from FF6 sort of long compared to FF4's.

Point. It's funny, because I was worried about it being either too big or too small when I was making it, and I erroneously swept away my worries about it being too massive.

I really do like the oldschool feeling of the final dungeon as a huge test of skill, but I clearly went way overboard. I won't make that mistake again. In fact, I may make a topic out of an idea I had that might work better in the future.

You can make that sort of dungeon as an optional dungeon in the future, though. That would be okay ^_^
So I finally came back to this game and popped in to mammon's shop place. I was kind of sad that I could only use 1 of each of those key items since i had a full extra set. Ended up grinding out a few more levels and brought everyone above 60, and I'm really tempted to pull everyone up to lvl 99 or 100 to see what kind of skills I have yet to snag, but I'd hate to put all that work in only to have there be nothing new.

So I'll ask here, is there an interested surprise to be had for maxing out the levels? or will it just make the final battle that much more curb stompy?

Yeah, that's basically my plan! XD I'll write up that topic with my idea later today.

Nope, sorry, there's no bonus for maxxing out levels and you should have all the skills ^^;;

Wait a minute… *reads status post*

I also want to avoid the opposite problem, making it too big >.<;; XD
Dyhalto
No way. Go ape. Make it huge. Fill it with split pathways, battles that suck item stockpiles dry, super bosses guarding amazing gear, and force the player to divide the party at least once. Then give the last boss three or more forms (two is cliche), or just one really huge form.

If can only be too big if you're planning on post-game content. Otherwise, the final dungeon is the coup de grace. It's there to test every strategy and force out every resource the player's developed. Make 'em earn your ending.

Dude, Breath of Fire 2's last dungeon took like 6-8 hours. It was like a panic attack of madness. Great memories of it though.

It is as it should be.
