FINAL VERSION RELEASED!


Summary/Story:

War of Existence is set in a post apocalyptic scenario, a Divine Entity judged humans as an evil race and the extintion seems to be the only destiny for it.

The story follows a mysterious girl and a swordsman in the struggle for survival, with a strong emphasis on existentialism and human nature.

Plot/Details:

As consequence of the Divine desicion, an army of beasts invade the planet, commanded by a division of the inter-dimensional commando known as The Saint Elite.

Because of several suspicious incidents in the Elite, the Divine Entity revived a human soldier named Seki, to investigate a possible conspiracy against them.

They blessed him with powers superior to the average Saint Elite ranks, and removed most of his human emotions, to ensure his obedience, and to erase any kind of sympathy or mercy he could feel for humans, since their fate was already decided.

In the middle of the chaos of a city invaded by monsters, Seki finds a mysterious girl, Azul, he saves her life and decides to take her with him, only because she seemed to be directly related to the incidents in the Saint Elite.

Will his motivations change because of her? Will he dare to oppose his bosses to save her? Wasn't her appearance just too convenient? Does she even exist?

All the mysteries behind her will define the the nature of humanity, they end being Master and Apprentice in the fight for existence.



The game features:

-A real time action battle system based on hotkeys, forcing the player to rely on skill and reaction to survive.
-4 usable characters with different mechanics.
-Fast moving scenarios and story, with lots of action.
-Diverse weapons, from melee to firearms and explosives.
-A lot of illustrations.
-Multiple endings.(6)
-Around 4 hours of gameplay

Difficultly:
The main character, Azul, learns new skills as the story goes on.
In the first areas, she's very fragile, but ends having a very balanced set of skills later in game, have this in mind.

This game can be hard in some areas, make sure to have your skills equipped in your hotkey bar, for more information, check the readme file or the "Hints/Walkthrough" page here.

Usable characters:


The downloads include the Archangel Flower Book, a canon glossary for War of Existence.

_____________________________

I highly encourage you to check the README.txt in the same folder, as if it contains awalkthrough and important info for a better experience of the game.

A complete guide can be found at https://secretsocietygames.org/Walkthrough.php It contains a playlist with videos, for the most complicated parts.

Latest Blog

The community and the game.

Since this game got already over 100 downloads, I guess it's a good time for me to say thank you and share with you some of my thoughts about the community.

RMN is a welcoming place, I am still relatively new here, but I saw a lot of things happening.

The first thing that impressed me was the constructive criticism, some users posted about the pros and cons they found in the first version of War of Existence...some of them even sent me private messeges with their opinion on how to fix the errors the game had.

I am proud to say "had" because that helped me to make a balanced game I am proud of, I've learned a lot here.

The feedback I got for the final version is very possitive, and I am very happy about it, because this thing here was my first game.

This game took a lot of time to make, and I loved every second.

I think the community could do a lot of things to improve as well, I see a lot of games here, wonderful games, but they are way too many, I think we should encourage users to produce games above the average.

Don't get me wrong, I just see mass production, and very talented people, I want to see their energy focused in the right direction.

Some of the devs I admire were here to help me, some of them are producing games I am waiting for.

Thanks for reading, it's been fun, now I'll go back to work on my second and possibly last RPG Maker game, while I prepare for the sequel of this game.



Thank you for your support!

Great artwork

Theres too many keys for controls

painkiller says it restores 500hp but it only restores 200

the dialog is a bit awkward. during the sabrina scene for example when she is talking to seki. at times
i wasn't sure if she was talking about the diary or herself. like
"my eyes are beautiful but you can look at them some other time."
i thought she meant herself as it made little sense to be part of a diary started a few days ago

My name is still ??? despite them calling me Azul

lol...why would god send hope to hell when he sends people there to suffer?

it does not make sense for Azul to say "why is this happened to me all a sudden"
she has no memories outside of recent events. there is nothing sudden about this.

theres not enough heals and too many enemies at the radio place.
and maybe its partly because i cant find a use for the guard ability since there isn't much delay in their attacks.


Thoughts 1H Dropped
This game has potential but i did not enjoy it due to the quality of the writing.
between grammar mistakes or just awkward wording of things i couldn't get immersed in what was going on.
Thats my biggest dislike with the experience currently.

The artwork,gameplay and plot are good. and i am interested to see where it goes.

Overall
This needs some work but i recommend this.

Hello Shayoko, first of all, thank you for taking your time for playing my game and sharing your thoughts about it.

About the skills, guard is only useful to cut large melee combos from certain bosses, in the Radio Station the best tactic is to let them surround you, the Scud skill is an area of effect attack, you can kill four or five in one hit, and Azul gains HP and energy restore skills later in game, but, maybe I should find a way to describe the skills in detail for the player in game.

Certainly there is no hope in hell, the archangel flower is a superstition, I was working on a bugfix as I said in the blog, but I will have your opinion in mind to be a little more specific about concepts like this and writing in general.

Thank you for your sincere feedback, this helps the project a lot, have a good day.

oh, i played this game yesterday. Well, i like it so much!!!

Thank you for playing my game, I'm glad you liked it! It's the first time I release a full game so it means a lot. Have a great day.
I've played the first 15 minutes for now, will play more but I want to share my first impression :)
The dialogue at the start (convo between soldier and the other guy) had some typos in it and got me a bit confused.
The setting and the choice of music for said setting is really nice, it got me immersed :D.
Since it's so early I can't judge the characters yet so I'll pass on that.
While the art is not 10/10, the effort put into making said art fit into the
game and add something nice to it is something I really appreciate. Even if it's
not perfect, the art gives it some sort of perfection. Even the girl kneeling down
checking a guard has an expressive drawing to it, I can't ignore that.
The combat... well... i killed 1 monster and I liked it so I can't tell yet.
I'm still wrapping my head around the maps, as I'll see more I'll have an opinion :D I'll comment when I played more.
Keep up the good work.
