Luxaren Allure is COMPLETE! :DDDDDD

It's been about a year since the last demo was released, and I am so extremely happy to announce that Luxaren Allure is FINALLY COMPLETE and ready for you to download and play! :D

A super huge thanks to the amazing Red_Nova for busting his butt playtesting the game from start to finish for the past freaking two weeks for me. Thank you so much for that! Also another huge thanks to Sooz for also busting her butt and putting together an awesome ending screen for me in just a few days! You are the best, Sooz! ^_^

A couple of small things you might be interested to know about. First off, I got a few complaints from non-experienced RPG players letting me know that they still found Easy mode to be too difficult, so I have added a new difficulty, Very Easy, for those people. I hope that allows you to enjoy the game without it being too frustrating for you! ^_^

Also, I'm sad to say I had to nerf the Liquid Impulse item quite a bit, as it was upsetting the game's balance. I apologize for that.

Thirdly, I will be adding a Tips and Solutions page to this gamepage to help players who are struggling at parts of the game. Look for it soon!

I am very proud to have this project finally brought to completion, but I didn't do it alone, not by a long-shot. So I'd like to take a moment to thank everyone who helped me out along the way ^_^ Names are listed in alphabetical order and with hide-tags so you can find your name fast (and hopefully will make scrolling to the game comments not be super-annoying XD) Let's get started!

Archeia Nessiah:

Hey Nessy! Back when I was brand new to this site, I was asking about animated battlers, and you told me about Kread-EX's animated battlers, which is a script that was super-essential to this game. Thanks for helping a newbie out, and for being such an awesome person in the RM community!


Cashmere Cat:

Thanks for your support of this game, and thank you so much for writing the first review for Luxaren Allure! That review inspired me so much! I really appreciate it! :DDDD

Craze:

Thank you for always providing such thoughtful and awesome advice whenever I'd post in RMN with RPG Making questions (which were mostly about this game XD). Thanks for cheering me up when I dropped the ball on Wyrm Warriors. Thanks for being such an awesome dev and cool person to talk to ^_^

GreatRedSpirit:

Whenever I've had a code or programming problem and I posted about it on the forums, you were there, and you solved so many of my issues. You even made a script fix for me when I ran out of animation room in my project! You have helped me so much, you have no idea. I can't thank you enough :DDDDDDD


Housekeeping:
Show
Back when I put out the first demo of the game, you gave it a playthrough and gave me some great advice about writing. While I feel the start of the game is very weak in the writing department, I tried hard to improve as I went a long. You've also been a wonderful inspiration as a fellow developer, as I've enjoyed all of your games as well! ^_^


Ilan14:

You've been following the game, checking out updates, and cheering me on for quite some time now! I really appreciate your support! Thanks very much :DDDD


kentona:

Thanks for all the effort you put into this super-cool site! And, when this game got the development spotlight, it got the subtitle "Eternal amour meets infernal armour" or something similar, which I thought was super awesome. I don't know who did that, but it sounds like your kind of humor XD


Kread-EX:
Show
Dunno if you'll ever see this, but I absolutely adore your Animated Battler's script, and the game wouldn't be the same without it. Thank you very much for making it! ^______^


Liberty:

You've been a huge inspiration to me, especially in mapping and Gam Mak enthusiasm! Thanks for being such an awesome part of this community! :DDDD


LockeZ:

Thank you for helping me so much for the bosses "Creeping Monstrosity" and "Philterath" (the potion monster) in your Boss thread. I owe it to you that those battles are so awesome.

I also really respect your eye for game mechanics and battles! Reading your posts about RPGs is always super-fascinating! ^_^

Also thanks for having a game with a giant big red button that says DO NOT PRESS but the hero presses it anyway XD


Luchino:
Show
Thank you sooooo much for cheering me on and supporting this game! I have a TON of respect for you as a developer, a storyteller, and an awesome mapper and resource-maker. You are super-awesome and I know Tristian is going to be amazing! :DDDD


M-3-1:

Thank you so very much for all of the super amazing art you did for Luxaren Allure! The look and feel of the game, the charm of the characters interacting, it's all thanks to your fantastic art! It has been so great working with you. Thanks for being so great to work with. I really appreciate all the hard work you put in. Thanks for putting up with all the extra stuff I asked for, too ^^;;

I can't thank you enough. Maybe we can work together again someday, too ^_^


Marrend:

You're an absolute godsend for this community and just a fun person to talk to. Thanks for being so awesome! :DDDD


Nirwanda:
Show
Hey Nirwanda! You helped me out a lot by pointing out that Karuna's feelings for Aurelie weren't nearly as obvious as they should be in the prologue! That really helped me out! Thanks a lot for that, and thanks for playing my game! ^_^


RedMask:
Show
Thanks for your support of my game! Also, thanks for making cool games about African culture and sharing the knowledge with the rest of the world ^_^


Red Nova:
Show
Remember back in the beginning, when this was just a small demo with an hour or so of playtime? You took a look at it and gave me some great advice about making the character's goals and struggles more relatable, to get to know Aurelie before she became Darkloft. Pretty much, the fact that this game is as big and detailed as it is, is thanks to you, as you made me want to make all of the characters more of a priority, and I needed more game-time to do that. :D

That aside, you've been cheering me on and helping me since the very start. Add to that your many hours of test playing, and wow. You've been a total lifesaver and an amazing friend to work with. Thank you so much for how much you've given to this project! (Also thanks for the fanart :D )


sai-shou:

Thank you so much for getting into this game, for promoting it, and for the wonderful Chisa fanart! It makes me happy every time I look at it, and it's super cool, too! :D Thanks also for doing the artwork commission for the sci-fi game, which will hopefully be up in 2016 ^_^

Thank you very much for playing the game, giving me your feedback, and screenshotting those typos you found! That was very helpful! ^_^

Thank you for all the ideas, all the listening to me talk endlessly about the game. Thanks for putting up with me working on it all the time. Thanks for taking the huge task of going over my dialog and making it so much better! And thanks for the amazing pixel art for the THE END screen! (Not to mention that you got me VX Ace as a Christmas present in the first place XD)

You are totally the most wonderful best friend a person could ever have! :DDDDD <3 I look forward to making more games with you! It's gonna be great! ^_______^

Ah, yes. Today's a good day, unity. Thanks for the kind regards, but really, today's all about you and your achievements. Well done, I feel really inspired by the hard work and dedication that you've put into this over time. It really helps me be able to picture what it takes to complete a game of considerable size. That and you've been incredibly nice to me and many others, so if anything, it's not just a celebration of your game, it's a celebration of you. I think a congratulation is probably a contrived platitude by now, but I think it applies anyway. Congrats. We're all magical to you because you see the best in people.

Good on ya, unity. Job well finished.
