Would suikoden/exit fate style recruitment work if there all NPCS?

I think that would be cool. In that case, the recuitable characters are basically just collectibles that grant access to new features and resources. Would definitely work. They don't necessarily have to be playable. It's still a fun mechanic that provides an incentive to explore.

2020 gaming diary

I've been playing through Code Vein and I'm near the end. It's pretty fun and I do recommend it if you can find it for a good price. It's not nearly as great as Dark Souls - the level design is good but isn't quite there, and there isn't nearly the armor, enemy or weapon variety. I am still enjoying it quite a lot though and I would like to see a sequel.

Future games?

>Either a mechanic to battles that is unique to your game or some kind of skill system.

A very valid point! I do have plans to have much more elaborate skill systems and more unique battle mechanics in my future games. For this game, I kept things simple because I didn't want to end up canceling my game due to biting off more than I can chew. However, now that I know what I'm capable of achieving, I can plan for more intricate gameplay mechanics.

Future games?

There is so much I am proud of in Exile's Journey, but also a lot of I'd like to improve or expand upon, and some things I plan to change completely as well! But, while I work on my design documents and such, I'd like to hear some feedback from you as well.

Can you help me trace the origin of these REFMAP/FSM-style chipsets included in the expanded-RTP?

Those are all REFMAP chipsets. Absolutely nothing in them is ripped.

Does anyone remember GamingGroundZero? (Remembering GamingGroundZero)

Yes, Wishmoo was apparently QHeretic's mum. The only tassel I ever got in with her was when she caught wind I was using 2k3 (illegally at the time). She absolutely refused any sort of connection between GGZ and 2k3 because there was no legal way to use it outside of Japanese.


There was no legal way to use RM2K, either, but they hosted plenty of RM2K games.

It should teleport you there instantly once you use the north exit in Seth. Did you head to the House of the Ma'at (northeastern house) and speak to Adaem's family first?
Silly me I was in the temple of Ra, not Ifrit. Finished now.
Really enjoyed the game, a little awkward knowing where to go sometimes, but, all in all a very good game. Thank you.
Do you have/know any similar games to play?


I am happy to hear that you liked it!

Some of the RPG Maker games that influenced me the most are A Blurred Line, The Way, and Demon Legacy, so check those out if you have a chance. :-)

I also recommend Theia - The Crimson Eclipse and Villanoire!

The commercial games that influenced this game the most are Final Fantasy VII, Ocarina of Time, and the Dark Souls series, so if you're in the mood for a commercial game and haven't tried those, check them out!

If there's one specific aspect in Exile's Journey you'd like more of, let me know and I can tailor the recommendations a bit more.

i liked this game so much, but i noticed something that really surprised me, when i went to the kobold village i talked to one of the kobolds that "Frankly, i'm a sicking wreck" when i read this dialogue my mind went to one of The Smiths songs that is called "Frankly, Mr Shankly" which has the same exact words in the dialogue and i'm not sure if it was coincidence or you meant to put it there, but nice job after all.


This is an intentional reference!

Punkpapao, I think you may be misunderstanding a little bit. When he gives you directions, he's not saying you need to take single steps. You actually need to navigate through multiple screens.

So, in other words - on the first screen, you need to walk all the way up until you reach the next identical screen. Then, walk all the up again. Then, walk all the way to the left. Etc.
