Hey there! :)

It's been quite a while since I presented my other project here on rpgmaker.net. I guess now's the time to show you my main project which I've been working on the last 13 years... xD
I present you...



Until now this game was only in german but I put a lot of effort in an english translation of the third demo which is finally ready for release...

Trailer


Legend of the Silverstone is a classic JRPG with a little bit of adventure, horror and comedy? (that's what you decide...) Well and it's heavily influenced by my most beloved videogames like Final Fantasy 6 + 8, Grandia 2, etc.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________

Plot:

Emulating his older brother the main protagonist Taka is about to complete his training to become a fully fledged soldier of the empire . Yet after a series of events involving a mysterious girl strange events start happening fast and Taka regains conciousness many years later in some unknown place. He's been imprisoned and can't remember what happened. After escaping he tries to find a way home to find out what happened... always on the run from his pursuers...

Need help...

I want to help/participate/etc...

Awesome! Just write me how you'd like to help and I tell you if that kind of help is needed.
At the moment I need beta testers for the 4th demo (3rd demo in english with some improvements). I translated the game to english and even though I'm from Germany I'm no grammar nazi (haha) and I guess there might be a lot of mistakes or strange dialogues in the demo... I'd love to have some help from native speakers ^^
Due to having no more time at all for creating this game (two children and lots of work) I'd really appreciate help. If you like the game and want to help completing it without payment or other gratifications (except being named in the credits) you're welcome :)

You will be able to move more freely once you have found the hidden oasis. Then you will get to use a boat to return on map north of the cave with the save point (Starting Map).

i think i missed this post, haha.
i found the boat and cleared the map, but i don't think i find the hidden oasis. i'm sure i missed a lot of things in the desert though.

the list:

- how to get through the sandstorm on the opposite side of the windy area (the one where you have to hide behind the rocks to advance)
- how can i find something that looks like a ladder to climb the area east from the area with a lot of rocks (east from the tent east exit)
- what to do with the cave in the same area as above
- how to light the torches in the area with the skull on it
- how to dig the pile of big rocks in labyrinth desert
- what to do with the mice nest (and boulder) in the area after labyrinth desert west exit


thanks for the info btw!

^^ thanks for showing so much interest :)
I hope I'm able to remember everything right...

- how to get through the sandstorm on the opposite side of the windy area (the one where you have to hide behind the rocks to advance)

You have to solve the puzzle with the three torches ^^


- how can i find something that looks like a ladder to climb the area east from the area with a lot of rocks (east from the tent east exit)

You have to find a piece of wood in the oasis after balancing over the rope ^^


- what to do with the cave in the same area as above

You can enter it after you found the piece of wood... it's just optional and cannot be done at this part of the game, only later when you return there...


- how to light the torches in the area with the skull on it

-one can be lit when giving an ancient sword and shield to the statue from the beginning
-one can be lit by solving the big rock puzzle ;)
-one can be lit by solving the riddle in the area where you get after you found the piece of wood ^^


- how to dig the pile of big rocks in labyrinth desert

You have to buy dynamite from the guy in the oasis cave ^^


- what to do with the mice nest (and boulder) in the area after labyrinth desert west exit

Try to get the mouse down to the boulder.. it will just open another way to the boss area ^^;


PS: Be kind of what's to come... I admit it will get kinda hard... xD

(i omitted some of the quotes since it might be too long)

haha, you're welcome! thanks for keep on helping me with the info though. i keep on getting stuck or miss something in the game.

ps: do you mean the boss? i already beat it so i'm fine, haha.


i was sure i took the piece of wood! it seems that my memory fails me.. okay, so.. i climbed the rope and found an ancient building, but i can't seem to solve the puzzle. i can't change the stone either (it'll just remove the stone when i try to do so). is it somehow related to the ashes of deceased that i picked up in the desert?

i also found a cave in the west area that leads to a very long underground. there's a big monster at the end of the road, but i can't seem to do anything to it. i noticed that there's a jumping spot in the northmost area, but i can't seem to use it. the monster kept on dragging me into battle that has no enemies like every few seconds and it's quite annoying. what should i do? (or is this the cave that you meant as the one that can't be done at this part of the game?)

and.. i can't seem to go down after i climbed with the piece of wood. do i have to beat one of the "puzzle" to return to go downstairs?

where is this oasis cave again? i tried talking to all people in the camp in the desert (or is this what you guys meant by hidden oasis? i'm not sure) but i can't seem to find any guy who sells dynamite. the item shop is even empty.

ah. is the boulder used as a passageway to the boss area from the labyrinth's west exit? i didn't notice that you can't reach the west exit since the rubble is blocking the way (strangely you can go the other way around though haha)

no ^^ actually I mean the next dungeon (and boss xD) in kingstown...

the ashes of the deceased is just a forging item ^^ if you're talking about the ancient building to the right of the map where you can climb up the tree after using the piece of wood it's a sudoku game and after beating it, there should open a passage back downwards ^^;
if you're talking about the empty room with two treasures in the cave which can be accessed after balancing over in the oasis town (where you found the piece of wood) then that'S just an exit of the cave you can enter after blowing away the stones with dynamite ^^;

that's the useless cave ^^; even though the battle shouldnt be empty but there should be a giant monster ^^; maybe something doesnt work right ^^;

That guy is sleeping in his bed and can be hard to find ^^ its one of those two or three caves in the oasis town ^^

the mouse will make the boulder drop and open the passage ^^

i think i find the problem. i didn't know that i can rotate the piece with up and down arrow. i thought that "change stone" option is used to rotate the piece. i just solved it now, thanks!

i see. i guess i'll just let it be then. thanks for telling me! i was really curious since i thought i can do something with it, haha.

it's this one, right? he keeps on talking the same thing though. nvm, i just realized that the potion shop seller isn't in the counter. i didn't even notice that it's a bed.

yes, that's what i meant. it seems i'm not that good with the wording, haha.
i think i'm stuck again.. i'm in Kingstown and am about to enter Tower of Truth(?) with the prince, but when i enter the tower, the prince keep on saying "There we are... Now you lead the way! I follow when everything is safe!" all over and i can't do anything else. is it bugged or something?

It is indeed a bug... :(
here's a patch which should fix it... Put this in your LotS folder

thanks! it works now.
i'm stuck again though, haha.


i'm in the tower, in the room with the clue "The glimpse of the knight reveals the truth!" (it's one of the rooms you explore after the prince is gone). i pushed the wooden crate to the bottom left part of the map, which i think is the right spot because it doesn't reset to the original spot when i moved to the previous map, but i don't know what to do next. i tried to interact with the knight but it doesn't seem to be possible. what should i do?
The statue looks towards the wall :) try activating the wall where its view touches the wall :)

thank you! it seems i'm really suck with these kind of puzzles. now i'm stuck in the next room, the one with "Three stones complete each other and shall open a new path...".

I already moved to the previous room with 4 dragon statues(?) and make all of the available rocks to fall down, but the obstacle to the stair isn't removed yet. i can't find any stones that has the same location as the one in the floor's picture though.
The riddle with the "three stones complete each other" hopefully isn't bugged... you have to switch to ghost rune mode and push the ghost stones into the middle... ^^; I hope that helps?

I guess I should really write a walkthrough for that dungeon or the full game... >.<
some help for whats to come:
staircase riddle -->
always enter the stairs you came from might help ^^;

riddle with three switches -->
left switch, right switch, upper switch ^^;

room with transparent underground -->
also check the pillars on the upper wall ^^;

mirror riddle -->
check your hair ^^;

doppelganger -->
lose the battle ^^;
thanks for the tips! i'm glad you included the clues on the next puzzle too so i can check it when i get stuck.

yeah, you might need to write a walkthrough on that tower. i think this is by far the most times i get stuck in a dungeon, haha. you already covered most of them already though.

anyway, i already completed the tower so here are some thoughts:

i think you should make the doppelganger fight obvious if you want the main character to lose. it's taking too long to finish.

Themis' boss fight is quite interesting since you can't win it by normal means, but it's more likely a chance based to me since i have to rely on Berserk status to deal damage to her. She wasn't casting her berserk skill after like 10+ turns in one of the fights i did while i try to beat her and she casted it on the first turn and killed her before she had another turn when i beat her. But again, the boss fights afterwards are great and the full MP recovery that happened after a few turns helped me a lot since i didn't use pots.

I wonder why Vena and Arek lose all of their equipments after Themis' boss fight though. I can re equip Vena's before i fight the soldiers, but i can't do the same with Arek so i can't really use his skill. It took a very long time to beat him (I didn't know that using Atk up will be a huge help; i just realized that skill exists haha) and after i beat him, i tried to return to the tower and save and.. i'm stuck in the tower because i can't exit the tower. i think it's a bug. i'll just redo the soldiers and Dai fight again for now, haha.
i think i'm stuck again.. i'm in the area after you leave Kingstown and on the way to Burgh Libra. i can't seem to proceed on the path after i passed the very big rock (near the place where i find the third Takeshi-mushroom). when i try to go up, there is a black figure that shoves me down and i can't do anything afterwards. the same thing also happens when i try to follow the path to the east; Ares will say: "Hold it! We have to go southwest! Therefore we should try all routes in this direction even if it leads us upwards!" and then i can't do anything. is it bugged or something?
Gratulation, you reached that part of the game we betatesters still wait for updates.
Don't try to push any boulder!
Safe only when you can move freely... (I saved during a complete freeze).

wait, you can push the boulder? i tried to press Z on all direction but nothing seems to be happening.

haha, yeah. i did that too. luckily, i got a backup save so i can restart from there.

so.. is it a dead end? i mean.. are there some things that i can do to continue or something?

thanks btw!

Well the beta test is over and not all testers experienced these freezes... unfortunately the game is on hiatus and I still haven't found the cause of the game freezing for some players... although it might be possible to find the error with some hours of work I guess correcting it might be impossible for now or at all...

yeah sorry if you experience the same bug as Firefly... If I find the time I might come up with a fix but for now it seems as it is demo over for you... :(
