At Last Alone: Risen

author=TheGamingPaladin
a Tactics styled RPG? you had me at Tactics, there is so few times that we see Tactical RPGs in RPG Maker, gotta say there could be tons of games that would be suited to use this system.

sadly i run my RPG Maker games on a potato of a laptop, so i'll have to wait for the distant future to play this, but that wont stop me from downloading it and adding it to my collection.


Thanks for the download! I hope you can get it to work on your future laptop! :D

Saga of Denwyn Episode I: Apprenticeship

Hey, I saw that Driftwood did a play of your game! Pretty cool! I haven't watched it yet.

So I watched it. And I really think Drifty did you wrong, man. He bailed on his playthrough way too quickly. I think that video says more about him than it does about your game.

I really enjoyed Driftwood's Lets Play of your game - good writing and a really cool premise! Good luck in the competition!

Eh? A prequel to the original At Last Alone game!? When did this happen??? :O

I remember playing and reviewing the original one a few years back - and remember quite enjoying it - so it’s a bit of a nice surprise to see another entry in the series just pop out of the blue like this. Although I’m not the biggest fan in the world when it comes to tactical RPG’s, with really the only ones that I really, really like being the original Sega Genesis Shining Force games, I wouldn’t mind giving this a play and review sometime in the future. So in the meantime I’ll be giving this is a subscribe for now. ^^

BTW, djbeardo – how did you end up doing in the IGMC event, anyway? Did the judges get around to playing your entry as of yet? I haven’t been following much of what’s been going on over there and all, so I’m curious to know.


Yep, kinda out of the blue! Thanks for your kind words regarding the last game!
I've been working on a true sequel to the game you played, but it's taken forever. I admittedly bit off more than I can reasonably chew regarding the story, maps, characters, etc. Classic RPGMaker rookie move: making the massive epic of my dreams. But I'm about 3/5 of the way done.

But as I was making that, IGMC started up and I had always wanted to do a tactical rpg. They are my absolute favorite genre of game, and when I saw GubiD's script for VXAce, I got really excited. So I figured I'd throw up a quick prequel/gaiden with the same characters (since I had their art, sprites, etc. ready to go).

The IGMC event closed on Nov 5, and I got a message saying they are closing the public vote Dec 18th, with winner announced "before Christmas". I haven't gotten any feedback from the judges yet. I've been watching a few youtubers claw their way through the submissions and there are some really good entries. I'd say about half of the entries either don't work, are all RTP, were thrown together in a day, or are incomprehensible. So that leaves about 125 solid entries! Very stiff competition!

But it was nice to complete something!

I'll probably revisit the tactics system in the future.

A tactics game using rpg maker. o_o This is a rare breed. I must try it! xD


It is! It was a big challenge finding any that were completed (for examples) or even much support on forums!

HEARTBEAT

Pirate Rush

Oh no! What happened? You moving on to something else?

One Small Favor

Oh no! Cancelled!
Good luck with your next thing!

OMG ! I can't believe this is your first RPG ! Just WOW !
This was an enjoyable RPG with a very good story , art and characters .
Took about 2 hours play ==> Maybe I stalled a little , kinda slow XDD
I really really really hope that you consider working on this game and making more chapters .

OH first , the game crashed after beating the woman boss ( I don't remember her name XDD ) for the second time , the game just closed . When I try to open my saved files the game closes again . It is really frustrating ..
Never mind , after closing the PC and opening it I can open my saved files and I could finish the game ,too.


Any way the story itself is really good based on a good background ( base ) , that it could be helpful if you consider making it a longer game . It seems to have more deep and events to it and I want to know more about this world , about the royal family and their powers and of course more about the heroes and their back story , especially Cal & Georgie . OMG! That wolf is just too cute ( I WANT ONE )


Let me talk about those Lovely characters that you created ( like I am in love with them )
Cal : She is a really good and caring leader ( A BEAUTIFUL WHITE HAIR GIRL WITH A SWORD AND A WOLF ... WHO WOULDN'T LIKE IT ? ) I suppose she has a tragic past that has something to do with the royal family or something like that . But , a heart warming story about how she met Georgie .
Georgie : Ah ,My lovely girl! how cute! I'd love to hear her voice sometime . No doubt that she is a very loyal friend and a good fighter . Maybe you can make her notice a hidden door like she noticed the guard .
Garrard : He is like the best to lighten up the mood with some jokes or comments . I thought he had a crush on Cal at first but I guess not . I think he could be a Womanizer ( I don't mind it at all XDD ) But , I really ship him with Samarah .
Samarah : At first she was all shy and quite , but as soon as she got to know Cal , Georgie & Garrard she became more talkative .

About the combat , It would be cool to see more mini bosses ( with unique character and maybe a backstory to some of them ) rather than two or three normal enemies together .

Sorry for the long reply , I had fun beating the game .
will their be a sequel ?


Thanks so much for playing my game!! I'm glad you liked it so much! Sorry about the game crashing... That's the first I've heard of it, but there was an issue with the script that comes on after that battle (particle effect things... ugh!).

I'm glad you beat it! :D

For a few of your comments:
1) Thanks for all the compliments on the characters - I'm in love with them too. I found the art for Cal and absolutely fell in love.
2) Yes, there is a ship was Sammie. I'm glad you picked up on that.
3) Gary is a womanizer and does have a history with Cal.
4) There will be a sequel - it digs into the history of Cal, the world, the royal family - all of it!
5) Georgie does get a "voice" of sorts in the sequel. It all makes sense in the world and I'm excited about it.

Not to pester for a subscribe, but if you subscribe here I'll make an announcement when the sequel is made. Also, you can follow my dev blog on instagram @djbeardo206.

Thanks again for playing my game! :D This made me so happy!

Fear and Hunger

Looks cool - I like the theme! Sprites look good too!
