Does this game really need to exist? That's an excellent question. Going back to remake an earlier game wasn't the best idea. The game itself isn't the worst, but.... It doesn't really need to be here at all. Why did I make this game? Why? Why? Why?

Journey back thousands of years to a parallel world. A world with magic, knights, and dragons. Play as a young man named Jason, the son to the Duke of Balthonia. His dreams and aspirations of defeating a dragon will lead you into unknown territory and grand scale adventure. Can you rise to the challenge of the Dragon Lancers? Can you hear the voice of Armos calling to you? Rise knight and take up your spear!

Dragon Lancer MV (created in RPG Maker MV) is a remake of Dragon Lancer (Created in RPG Maker VX Ace.) Dragon Lancer was my very first game and is heavily flawed. So for my first game in RPG Maker MV I'm going to remake my first game for RPG Maker VX Ace. Expect better mapping, superior event programming, and an improvement to the story.

Features:

Side View Battles (Using Yanfly Action Sequence Plugins)
Difficulty Selection (Available in Options Menu)
Optional Quests and Dungeons (Some available after defeating game)
New Game Plus (Requires you to defeat hardest enemy)

Making this game game me a real love / hate relationship with RPG Maker MV.
Hope there's no issues with the download (Seriously, didn't have these issues with Ace.)
Have played your ironic/sarcastic game.

Two bugs found: The Resist Ring don't prevent silence/sleep as promised.
The Holy-Weapon-Spell of Jason hits the enemies.

Improvements: a mass healing spell (those optional bosses are too tough when healing each ally one after another while they attack 4 times)

Is it intented that the last warp crystal restarts the game with the current level?

Those who love crazy hard games will enjoy this.

The Holy Sword weapon does not target enemies, you are experiencing a bug that can happen with many skills or attack (You can only actually target one enemy with an attack, you cannot select anything else.) If anyone experiences this bug the best thing I have found to do is to close the window and reboot the game, that one is currently out of my hands.

The resist ring prevents Silence and Rage, not sleep. If you are getting Silence then I must have set up the ring incorrectly (I set it with State Rate Silence and Rage X 0.) If anyone else has this issue, let me know. Edit: Confirmed that this ring does in fact work.

The last warp crystal is New Game Plus, so of course you would start with all your stuff, otherwise you might as well just start the game over again.

I was debating myself as to whether to have a massive healing spell or not, thought it might make the game to easy. If you are at level 25 I found the game on normal to be quite easy, but there is an easier mode in the difficulty selection mode.

Also, if you go to the data folder you can find a file called difficulties. I'm not sure if this will work, but you might be able to change the numbers on those to be lower. You can also add or remove difficulties too perhaps. (I'm able to do it because I have the file before it was exported, but I'm not sure how changing these numbers will effect the game after exportation.) 100 is normal, anything higher than 100 is more difficult, anything less than 100 is less difficult. You can also change it to so you get more gold and experience points (make the numbers really high.) This file can be opened with Notepad.

Thank you for taking time to play my game and to write some feedback to me.

This game looks interesting. I will give it a try.
I do have a quick question though. How did you get the game file so small? What I mean by that is how did you get it under 300 MB?

You need to exclude the files you didn't use when you deploy. (check the box)
But... You need to be careful. Because there were and handful of files it didn't extract.

Animations / Sound Effects mostly associated with Normal Attack and some Plugins.
So after deployment replay test our game and put the files in as you get the errors.
Also check your Plugin settings to see if they refer to anything.

Thank you. Also where do I go after I meet Charles?

You need to get 100 gold. To do that you need to leave the town and fight aprox 2 encounters. You can use the statue in town to heal. Once you have 100 gold go to the temple to make a donation.

Edit: It's also possible to complete one of the Warrior's Guild quests to get 200 gold without fighting any encounters. (Almost forgot about the optional quests that I added after the story portion of the game was made.)
Thank you. Also I really like the difficulty options.

That's a lesson learned from a long time ago.
currently playing on normal, and it is extremely difficult. I reckon your idea of normal equals hard for the average player. Bosses are especially unforgiving, and it's difficult to gauge their strength using local random encounters because they tend to be way more difficult than the local random encounters. The first boss for example rekt me easy within 3 turns. Had to grind till I got regen, and even then it was way harder than you'd expect from the first boss in the game. Couldnt even imagine fighting the second boss without the bonus equipment and ice 2. Even with those, I died a few times because he has group magic and can sometimes oneshot people. Now I'm stuck fighting the 3rd boss without the carry, and I'm not looking forward to it.

Story is minimalistic and vulgar, with a bizarre central plot. It was a WTF-fest the entire time, and I watched koi kaze so I'm not new to this sort of thing. It's just the monotonous dialogue that makes it so strange. We are talking Castle oblivion levels of monotonousness here.

Given all these extremely difficult MV games I've been palying recently, I think maybe its better to be casual and stick to the adv/horror genre games on here instead

I'm sorry you found the game too difficult. I thought it was rather easy.

But I did include a difficulty selection inside the configuration menu.
There is an easy mode.

And if you go into the data folder you can find a file called difficulties and manually edit normal (or anything else) to be much easier (or much more difficult) if you wish.

*The game has no random encounters.
*The first boss is a dragon and is supposed to defeat you in your first play through.


UPDATE: I just finished the main questline. You're right, the game does get easier after grinding to level 25. Unfortunately, forgot to save after beating the final boss so looks like I'm gonna be loosing out on the postgame.

RPGMaker MV supports using the mouse to select spell/ability targets. If the mouse cursor happens to be over an enemy or player, keyboard target selection will fail.

I never thought about this (And am not sure that this is causing the issue, this is more of a script issue.) I play tested the game using the keyboard because I'm used to VX Ace. But even if what you say is true, it's still a bug because the keyboard commands should over ride the mouse if the mouse is stationary.

I don't know how MV handles mouse input. As it happens, I know of a VN made in XP with mouse support, and a similar effect occurs. As in, if the mouse is hovering over an option, and the player tries to use the keyboard, the cursor will "jump" back to the selection the mouse is hovering over. Maybe the same thing is happening here?
I played and enjoyed your game. Sometimes you need a plan to beat certain enemies. Could have done without the Incest. Really had no significance to the game. Hope that never has significance to any game.Now on the Key part and stuck.Corners and crevices handled with care????As far as any negativity....illigitimi non carborundum!!!
Any help with the key cave? Thanks

Are you in the extra portion of the game?
Corners handled with care sounds like you either need to touch all the corners or crevices (Walls where 2 points meet.) If that doesn't work I would try pressing enter at every corner and crevice. You'll need to be very thorough.
Thanks..
I'm in the after game after getting the key for the statue.
I started in the first town and got another key from the chest.
I''m now in the middle town dungeon.

I'll try that.
