@Ocean: Oi! A hall of giants, eh? But why dowes that one looks like a windmill? Maybe I missed something in what the others were saying, but for some reason i tried to look really hard in order to see fi I could find a face or anything. >_>

Anyway, it still looks good. Great work!

And only Lv.13? How far do you think the enemies will be by a normal endgame? (Near the final boss/final dungeon)

About Level 25. I'm leaving 25-30 as the high end enemies that are optional, but otherwise by end game they should be 20-25. I have to adjust these numbers, but yeah, 13 is about the middle range, so that doesn't make it weak. And yes, it is a Windmill, Don Quixote reference as was said earlier.

Yep, Don Quixote reference. The whole game isn't based on Don Quixote, but I had to add that there somewhere. It wouldn't leave me alone.

@Darken: They're all edits, since FF1 battle graphics are what I started the project with. The Red Mage girl is a FF5 class edit, the Fighter guy is either an FF3 or FF5 character edit, and the White Mages had some more editting done. I forget what the base one is, probably Celes from FF6 judging by the pose. I could be wrong, I'm very forgetful.

As a side note, a few turns after that screen was taken, we were brutally slain by the GIANT.

Moooog: Personally, I'd probably recolor the cave walls, or leave it and maybe add an object/tile to make it more than just brown. Otherwise it looks good, just seems a bit much like a FF6 map rip to me. If that's what you're going for, then I don't object.


Since the game is inspired by FF1, I thought I'd have some GIANTs in there. And there definitely will be a hall of Giants, I just have to find where to put it.

Walk speed is a killer for me. I will not play a game with slow walk speed. Other than that, a very generic story/characters will also cause me to not care, as is with slow pacing, hard difficulty, or boring gameplay. I don't need a custom battle system to like the game, I've beaten games that used the DBS. But they also had more than just "Attack, Heal, run out of MP" type of thing.

Also, you need to hook me within the first five minutes. And please don't add that "DO YOU WANT TO SKIP THE INTRODUCTION?!?" to your game. Chances are, you added that because it was too long in the first place. And skipping an introduction to a game is like skipping the first chapter of a book. I can pretty much assume how an RM game is going to be just by looking at this option. Just don't do it.

I would argue that the "Do you want to skip the introduction" is kinda like pressing Start or something to skip a cutscene in a game. I'd rather have that option there. Also, people tend to generally release multiple versions of their game, so I don't want to see the intro yet again. If the game is short and replayable, I also don't want to see the intro again.

If I have not seen the intro, then I will see it. I've had someone tell me they skipped the intro and cutscenes in my game so they could try out the game itself. I don't mind them doing that. They went back in later and played with the intro/cutscenes.
