ADDIT'S PROFILE

I see that you too have also joined in the anti-piracy craze. Lol, nice!

(Wait, we get paid for making fangames!?)

What’s up with the strange music selection for this demonstration video anyway; it sounds like something out of a company recruitment video. And how come you’re not showing this off with any sound effects in the background either? Is this song going to be in the game as well??? Either way, this just seems like a strange choice to me to not include all of those things in it to show it off.

First off, I do like how the flowers scatter about when the enemy comes out of the shrubs to meet and greet the hero, as it’s a nice looking effect before going into battle. And the map of the forest isn’t too shabby either. The battle H.U.D. is quite nice and looks quite clean to me, although I don’t know if I like the idea of having two different indicators for a current action and a turn action, as it’s probably best to just have one altogether (although I do admit that you get kind of used to this the more that you look at the demonstration video, so it’s probably fine). Also, I do like the zoom-in effect at @ 2:04 of the video when the hero goes in for an attack. I know I’ve seen this script or technique used before somewhere in other RM games, but I can’t remember where exactly…

It’s a shame about the music selection being used here because it almost completely makes the whole video rather unbearable to watch because of it, as this is a nice looking game with a pretty decent battle system overall. Yeah, nothing too special at the moment about it...but that’s okay.

I hope you can show more of this game off in real time with everything included in it in the future, as I do wanna see more of it myself.

I dunno, I kinda like the original title screen a lot more than this new one you got here now. I mean, the original title screen (this one) looked absolutely fantastic and not only did it have the proper windowskin to go along with it as well but it also had the same matching logo and font patterns of what you would usually see in a Final Fantasy game that made it look absolutely professional upon viewing it, but the music that also accompanied with it as well was great, and it totally set you up quite nicely for the tone of the adventure ahead. This one, however, well…it kind of feels like I’m playing something completely different due to everything that’s going on with it, especially with the music (no offence to the composer behind the track), because when I hear a track like that in action it doesn’t scream to me that I’m playing a Final Fantasy fangame whilst listening to it, it sounds more like something that I would probably hear in a horror / suspense game more than anything.

But I guess if there’s one thing that I like about this new title screen over the old one is probably that finger icon and how it animates and scrolls up and down along with the cursor. It looks neat. That I like.

Ooo, I really like it. Kind of sounds like it reminds me a lot like the old Mega Man Gameboy games that I used to play back then when I was a kid. It definitely has that 8-bit, chiptune sort of vibe going on for it that I really appreciate. Good stuff.

Wait…I thought that you were done with this game. Are you just planning on going back a bit and tinkering with some things or just completely remaking Erayu from scratch again? (Please don’t tell me that you’re planning on remaking it from scratch again - you just finished!!! *shakes*)

I do like the new title screen, though, but the old one wasn’t too bad from what I remembered. There’s no title logo here or any music (that I can hear of) as of yet, so I’m guessing this is still a WIP??? Either way, not too bad. ^^
