SOLO'S PROFILE

The prime focus of this game is not the graphics. It is the story and character development. And criticism on that front would be wholly subjective as everyone has different tastes.

If you don't like my game because its graphics are not state-of-the-art, I apologize. I poured my life into this project for seven years, and this is the result. It would be a Herculean undertaking to make such drastic changes at this point (notwithstanding the Herculean undertaking it was to make my game in the first place).

But you're missing the point if you're judging the game by its graphics without taking note of the story. Which, by the way, is not nearly as fleshed out in this trial version. I built my game around what I believe to be a meaningful message that I hoped would somehow enrich people. But it's wasted if no one can get past the graphics.

Maybe it was a mistake to release the trial version at all, I don't know. This is my first time at this. I just wanted to get my game some exposure and hopefully build a little hype before the release, but everyone seems to be ignoring whatever good might be there for the most part (except ivoryjones' comment on the music and a few of Liberty's posts).

I am not angry, just a little disheartened. I'm sorry if I've disappointed anyone.

If I am defeating the purpose of having a game profile on RMN, I can just delete it if that's what's best. I'm not being immature, I'm simply being humble and acknowledging my possible mistake.

EDIT: One more thing.

You're asking for money on a game most people would (and do) make for free.

All I want to say is that you have no idea of the blood, sweat, and tears that went into making this game. And that comment is a direct insult to my passion and dedication.

The red color font on the intro was really hard for the eyes.

It's in keeping with the fire-based theme of the game.

Also too big of a wall of text.

I do like a good story! ^_^

Thank you for all your input, Liberty. ^_^

These maps have no definition.

I really don't think that's a fair assessment at all. Just because the style doesn't conform to what you're used to doesn't mean it's wrong.

Including music samples, character profiles, and a ton of screenshots!
