ZEUZIO'S PROFILE

Just a lizard who makes games sometimes, allegedly!

I'm a computer science student and thus learning how to code...though I also work full time to support myself so my time and energy are limited these days. Still, I hope to get back into gamedev at some point and maybe play a game or two every once and awhile. I'm wanting to maybe learn another engine such as Game Maker or Unity, though RPG's are still my main area of interest so RPG Maker will always have a place in my heart.

Gemini's Leaving!

And for more than just a few days, at that.

A lot of stuff has come up in the past few weeks, including my mom divorcing my step-dad. Unfortunately, my step-dad brought in most of the income, so now we're in a financial pickle. This means that internet is a luxury that we can't afford, so no RMN for me, I guess. I won't be completely without internet, however, since it's available at my dad's. Though I only visit there every other weekend, so it's kind of pointless.

And yeah, this means that my Earthbound LP is gonna be put on a hiatus, since I can't really do it without internet connection. I will, however, continue to work on it behind the scenes, taking all my screens ahead of time! Sorry to anyone who might have been following the LP.

I'm also going to start two new games that aren't Secrets of the Light! One's gonna be my own game, and I'm also going to make a joint project with my brother. You won't be seeing our joint project on RMN probably, but whenever I can I'll create a game page for my own game.

Well, bye, I guess. If anyone cares. =)

Let's Play: Mother 2 (Earthbound)

Let's Play: Mother 2 (Earthbound)



What's the Point of this Let's Play?
I've been wanting to do one of these things for quite a while, so I decided to try it out on one of my favorite games. This is mostly for entertainment purposes, but you can also use it to see what Earthbound is like without playing it. I strongly suggest you play it, though, if you haven't already. Everyone can also post in this topic talking about Earthbound and the Mother series as a whole.

What is Mother 2/Earthbound?
For those that don't know, Earthbound was called Mother 2 in Japan, since it was the sequel of a Japan only game called Mother. I'll be calling it Earthbound mostly in this let's play. As to what kind of game Earthbound is, it's hard to say. It's definitely a Super Nintendo era RPG, but, it has it's own quirky style that really sets it apart. The story is simple and the characters are somewhat one-dimensional, but that doesn't mean that they aren't likable. Don't let the looks fool you, however. Earthbound is a lengthy and challenging game if you don't know what your doing. Anyway, you'll see more of Earthbound and it's... uniqueness as this let's play unfolds.

What Will be Featured in this Let's Play?
Before we start, I'll say right now that this isn't going to be a super let's play. I'm not going to delve into all of Earthbound's secrets, find every hidden item, or make my party extremely powerful. You will, however, get to watch me as a I play through Earthbound for just my second time, and see my strategies for beating each boss and going through each dungeon. Plus, you'll get to watch the story as it unfolds.

How Can You be Involved?
Like I said earlier, this topic will also serve as an Earthbound/Mother series discussion topic. So, in between updates, feel free to talk about anything Mother related. Also, you can point out anything that I didn't cover in Earthbound if you feel the need.

Next Update?
Well, this is currently on hiatus, so...


Survival Mafia

To hold everyone over until Mafia Gear Solid on August 15th, here is a smaller game of Mafia that supports nine players. For new players, the rules of this game are listed below. Thanks to Otokonoko, Ark, Tonfa, ect. for putting this stuff together for me.

RULES

1) The game starts with a Day Phase. During this phase, all currently alive players will be able to post in this thread, discussing who they wish to vote to lynch (remove from the game).

2) Once a majority has been reached, the person selected is lynched and their role is revealed, or the day will end with No Lynch. This ends the Day Phase and begins the Night Phase.

3) During this phase, any player with night actions may submit their action privately to the game moderator, which is me. The Mafia also chooses which member of the town to kill in the same fashion. Once all night actions are resolved, anybody who is killed during the night has their role revealed to the town, beginning the next Day phase. Nobody may talk in the thread during the Night Phase. Mafia members may communicate amongst themselves during this time, out of thread, as they can at any time during the game. If you talk during the night phase, you will be modkilled.

4) Members of the Town (Survivors in this game) win by eliminating all threats to their survival. The Mafia (Predators in this game) win the game when they have control of the vote, or when a situation where town cannot win arises.

5) If you sign up, make sure you participate. Anyone who doesn't post in long periods of time will either be modkilled or replaced. Also, if you want or have to quit for whatever reason, drop me a note and perhaps I can replace you.

6) Don't directly quote/post your role PM, and don't try to ruin the game for anyone else by any means. Also, don't blow up if things don't go according to your master plan. It's only a game, after all.

7) DO NOT EDIT YOUR POSTS! YOU WILL GET MODKILLED!

This game's role setup is closed, like most of the mafia games we've played. If you want to sign up or ask questions, just post in this thread.

First Mate's Log - July 14th

The guests aboard the cruise ship, Pioneer, all seem content as we head into our third day of the trip. We'll be turning back around tomorrow to reach United States western coast as scheduled. It's a little foggy today but still fine for sailing. No catastrophe has struck our little boat as of yet, but you never know... Not that I really think anything bad will happen, of course!

First Mate's Log - July 15th

I don't know how it happened, but we are now stranded an uncharted island in the Pacific Ocean! My memory of last night is very foggy, and I don't recall any events that could have led up to this. All I know now is that there are ten survivors, including me, and we have little supplies. Our fair boat is in ruins on the beach. We're going to have to work together if we want to last on this island until help arrives. We need to find food, shelter, and we also have to get a good night's sleep tonight, which I'm not sure if that is possible considering how scared and worried most of the survivors are. I'm scared, also. And, this might be just me, but some of these survivors with us don't look at all familiar.

First Mate's Log - July 16th

I'm filling in for the first mate today, because of an... unfortunate and unspeakable occurrence. Our first mate has been... brutally murdered, his bloody body left on the beach while we were sleeping the night before. We don't know who did this, but whoever it was has to be brought to justice! There seems to be no wild animals capable of such a grizzly murder on this island, so it must have been the work of one, or perhaps more than one evil soul that lurks among us.This isn't just a shipwreck anymore, this is survival, and we are the survivors. Our goal is to find the predators that killed our beloved first mate, before they kill the rest of us.

I Have Returned!

Hello again! Well, I've been away from RMN and making games for quite some time now. Things like family issues, school, and Dragon Quest V don't exactly lend a lot of time to chat online and such. But, now that I do have some free time, and I'll have VX in a couple of days, I'm ready to start working on my games and hang around in here some more. I'll also be attending IRC more frequently.

Well, just to re-introduce myself, I'm Levi, a fifteen year-old high school student interested in art, programming, and game making, all three of which I'm not that great at yet. I'm not very outgoing and really shy, but I guess I make up for that by being pretty smart and athletic to an extent. My favorite type of game is an RPG, of course, but I like to play a bit of everthing. I really don't like shooting and RTS games, though, mainly because I'm not very good at them.

I'm also an avid Super Smash Bros. Player. 8)

Secrets of the Light DEMO V2.0

Secrets of the Light
The Demo has been updated! You can download it here: http://rpgmaker.net/games/772/downloads/ This new version of the demo is a big improvement over the first. More details down below:

STORY
This is part of an eight part series, although it is not the first chapter. It is actually the fourth part, because I'm doing them out of order (but in a way that still makes sense!) The story of this chapter is of four heroes who came from who knows where to defeat an evil warlock named Shade, who was sealed by a mysterious party 500 years ago because he was causing destruction to the Earth. Upon being sealed, The warlock Shade vowed to return 500 years later to cause destruction again. He, and the game starts as the four heroes begin their quest to stop Shade, for good...

CLASS SELECTION
Before you actually start the game, you must select a party of four out of eight classes, being knight, priestess, magician, elementalist, ninja, berserker, beastmaster, and monk. Each class has their own advantages and disadvantages.

GAMEPLAY
Well, to be honest, I didn't get to complicated with the gameplay here. Besides the blue magic system, There isn't much in battle scripts, and, I probably could have implemented more minigames, but, I do plan to have a lot of optional content for those that beat the game. One of those being a bonus dungeon. The game will be about 5-10 hours, and starts off pretty easy, and gradually gets pretty tough (as it should be).

THE DEMO
Features of the new demo include:
1. Fixed Bugs
2. Improved Gameplay
3. New Class Names
Although there is no new gameplay in the new version, It features significant improvements. Most of the bugs that I knew about have been fixed. Many story and the gameplay aspects have been improved. Also, the Class names have been changed to less generic titles. There is also something new called "The Training House". While in it, you can learn about some of the game's strategies and important tips. If you liked the first demo, or like RPGs in general, Give it a try!

Hello!

Hey! I'm completly new to this forum. My name's Levi, and I'm 14. I developed an interest in making games(particuarly rpgs)when I was around 10, after I first beat Final Fantasy 7, my first RPG beaten. So here I am! I chose this site to make my games because It seemed like the best for my needs. Although my favorite games are RPGs, I also play a lot of other game genres, but I don't like fighter or strategy games much. My current project is "Secrets of the Light", which I will release a demo for soon. After a few days here, I like it, so, I think I'll stay.
