WHEELMANZERO'S PROFILE

Just a guy who loves rpg's. Thanks to some serious encouragement from several new friends and the community at large, I was able to complete one of my own. Game making is my favorite hobby, so you can expect more games on the way. Play on fellow gamers, play on!

Hey, I decided to try a blind let's play of your game, and it blew me away. Only did the prologue so far but it is really good. Haha, voice acting this has given me the shivers! Got so excited I kept misspelling things >.> But got a bit better later on. Man, this was super fun. Was I allowed to swear on this, because some author wrote to not swear on a let's play but not I"m no longer sure if it was you or another author.

I also drew a fanart!

I know this is just the prologue XD But damn that was emotional, and really awesome. Very intense, I love it.


Oh my goodness, between smiling and laughing my face is killing me. I never thought anyone would be as into the game as you are, certainly not enough to be moved emotionally. I don't think there's a word to describe how unbelievably happy I am.

I'm not really in charge of the content that's allowed in let's plays, so it must've been someone else.

As long as we're talking about voice acting, yours had me in stitches. I especially loved the voices you gave Ragnarok and Syrus. You made Syrus sound 70% more evil than intended, which was great. "Being evil is difficult on my throat." My goodness, my lungs hurt a little from laughing at that one.

I am overjoyed that you're having such a good time and sincerely hope you enjoy the game all the way to the end. Sadly it's far from perfect, but if you run into any issues, just send me an email and I'll be happy to help you through them. And hey, thanks for the amazing fanart, I will treasure it forever!

Thanks bro, things are going dandy fine! I've been feeling inspired lately thanks in no small part to all the positive feedback I've been getting, so I'm trying to put that energy to good use. It's just really fulfilling hearing that I've accomplished my goal of trying to bring a little fun into the lives of my fellow gamers. I don't think I've ever enjoyed game making more than I do right now. There's just so much I want to do!

The deadline for the bacon jam is the end of this month, but berry and I might end up finishing before that. We'll see. There were a lot of hanging story elements left at the end of Umbral Soul, so ending the story there would have been very unsatisfying. A good story needs closure, and "different" isn't always the same thing as "good".

YEEEEEEEEEEES! *starts repeatedly doing backflips*

Nice. The one on the left has that whole "Ansem" vibe going on.

12xeV- Hey thanks! I put a lot of effort into making the credits seem more professional so I'm glad to hear it was worth it.

guillaume- Purple, red and black are the colors most associated with dark magic, while yellow, blue and white are associated with light magic. Sometimes the character's auras change color depending on how powerful they are or what kind of magic they use.

There were a few errors with some of the scenes that change depending on who's in your party, but I've corrected them for the ultimate edition. There's an easy fix for the prologue battle as well, though I didn't think anyone would ever run into that problem unless they were trying to break the game.

What are you making for the bacon jam?


That my friend, is a surprise.

Umbral Soul

Well I'm working on a little something for the bacon jam event, but once that's done I should be able to focus all my efforts on finishing the ultimate edition. I want to say a month, but don't quote me, I'm not all that fond of deadlines.

No sweat bro. Here's another spoilery response to your questions.

I can't say whether Vivian and Duncan live or die, but I will say their fates are revealed in the sequel.

Nah, that transformation glitch can make you immortal if you use it right. The passives were something I threw in near the end to round out a few character's skill sets, since they seemed a little bare. I also ran out of animation slots (all 999 of them), so I was limited in terms of how many attacks I could make.

Believe it or not, the door in the monster kennel is going to be used in the sequel as well. In fact, there are very few things in Umbral Soul that don't have a purpose either in the game or in the sequel.

I have a lot planned for the lore of the story in the future. I was thinking of tying in my very first rpg maker story back when I bought my first rpg maker; rpg maker 3. It would be prequel that takes place long before even Jeremy was born, but I don't want to get too far ahead of myself. One game at a time, that's how it's done!

I didn't want to make Talon playable since I figured the main cast had enough characters in it, and having a human as a summon would be weird. Plus I'd have to add 4 additional possible scenes to each cutscene that changes depending on who's in your party. Noooooooo thank you!
