MERCYNMETAL'S PROFILE

My first RMN game, Dungeon of Monarchs, began as a volunteer project between members of the WIG (Women In Gaming) community back in 2013.

I worked as the producer of the Ethnic Face-sets Art Pack (a Kickstarter campaign for racially diverse game characters). The art pack's worldwide distribution date is January 25, 2016; and it's free for everyone, thanks to the generosity of our backers.

I currently work as a game designer at FunPlus in San Francisco. My favorite games are farming sims, dating sims, dungeon crawlers, and fantasy rpgs... especially games that combine them all, like Rune Factory 4, for example.

Dungeon of Monarchs

Also, I PM'd BroBonds several weeks ago.

Everything is accessible; including the Earth Guardian. The free version and purchased version are the same.

The game will remain free.

If this is for sale, please add the commercial tag, even if you have a free demo.


The whole game is free and available for download.

Free Face-set Art Pack - ethnic, black, fantasy, sci-fi, etc.

The resource section... is that the game development section? I believe that's where I intended to post this. Not sure how it ended up here. Possibly I was reading something else when I made the thread.

Race and Gender in Games

Um, what? Really? Have you even seen the character editor?

Literally, any colour.

Also, nice way to advertise the release. Been planning this for a while?


I... think they predominately look like Caucasians with a different skin tone, like what existed in VX Ace. A skin color alone isn't what makes a race look different or unique. I think it's okay, but it strikes me as more of an accessory than a different race.

Sorry, I didn't mean to cause offense. Obviously we have different opinions on this. Thanks.

Here's the original topic about our Kickstarter:
Black Characters/Face-sets

Thanks to everyone who supported us. By the way, a new character was added to the art pack - Rahz from Dungeon of Monarchs (see profile pic) - a special thank you to Esther Chang for allowing us to add him to the pack.

All the face-sets are free to use (and yes, in commercial projects also!) thanks to the generosity of our backers. If you use the art pack, please remember to give credit to the corresponding artist(s) in your game; thanks.

The art pack can be downloaded here from Dropbox! You can also distribute the art pack; it's officially released to the world ;)

Thanks again to all of our backers, we couldn't have done it without you!

Race and Gender in Games

I noticed this problem awhile back, and asked artists if they would be interested in providing ethnic face-sets.

I used a dark-skinned character in a fantasy game, named Rahz (see profile pic). He was the main character in Dungeon of Monarchs.

We just released his face-set (and a few other face-sets of characters with dark skin) for free. It was a small kickstarter project that got funded. You can find the discussion and art pack here:

Ethnic Face-sets

This was one way our small community banded together to try to work around the problem. Unfortunately, I don't think the new MX gives us much diversity either... not all of us are artists :(

And where can I find the Stable Master? xDD


He's the character standing in front of the stable north of town. He wears a red scarf. ;)

I have another question O.O
Sorry v.v XD
Where do I get Speed and Warghol Essence?


Answer:
Enemies on dungeon levels 8-10 have Speed Essence, and enemies on dungeon levels 16-18 have Warghol Essence. There are a few rare exceptions. Each enemy can carry between 1-3 different essences.


Good luck!

Dungeon of Monarchs

Oh, I see '>.<

Spoiler:
You have to progress in the game until you defeat the elemental guardians in battle (boss fights). After winning the battle, your party will become "attuned" to that element. Then you can return to Saffronia's shop and put the elements in any order to invent a spell.


Sample Spells:
The same element three times in a row (wind, wind, wind) for example, will create a basic spell. Combine elements to create new spells.


Good luck! :)

..I have another question xDD.. sorry v.v How can I make a spell ( i am in the house of Saffronia the Enchanter there by the pentagram )

It's okay. Crafting spells aren't possible in the demo. It only appears later in the game.
