Once again unity is at the root of all my problems....

Really at this rate I should be the final bonus boss of HR: Heroic Edition >:D
I sit on a throne of skulls and fail to put out a demo for a game I've been developing for over a year.

Seriously tho, this is impressive work, that skull is awesome and I love that Lavos inspired animation! :D I have a feeling you're going to leave me in the dust as far as the quality of your animations!

On this day in 2009...

does anyone believe that I would feel guilty asking for help like this, like I am taking unfair advantage? because that's how I feel. Plus, there is the knowledge that I'm taking forever on this and that it is doubly-unfair that any help someone offers won't see the light of day for a long long time


Do whatever you feel, if asking for help really makes you uncomfortable, then that's fine.

At the same time, while I can't speak for everyone here, I think we're offering not just because you're some Joe Shmoe trying to make a game, but because you're someone we like and you're remastering a game that's already a treasured classic.

You've already got a ton on your plate and I think it would make your forever game take maybe a little less forever if you had more help.

On this day in 2009...

If you need help with anything and it's something I can do, I'd love to pitch in. :D Tho it seems like a lot of it is database work and battle eventing.

Tho if you happen to need help in any areas like battle animations, dialog, simple sprite work, suggestions for renaming copyright infringement things or anything else, drop me a line!

At any rate, I'll be here cheering you on either way! :D Happy Birthday, Hero's Realm!

Redoing Assets for a Future Steam Release

An edit to the blog post you all may or may not find interesting: Originally, I had posted an example of one the animations I failed to name correctly when I made the game. Just now, I just found the source: It was by LexusX, who I did indeed have in the credits, I just failed to name that resource correctly! So that's one mystery solved XD :D

I don't doubt I've used resources from the internet, particularly when it comes to music. I do my best to state, either in the file name, or in the packed-in credits, where it's from. At least, I think I do. Nothing pisses me off more than hearing a cool tune, and there being absolutely no documentation, about where it's from. If the file was renamed to suit whatever situation it played in the game, and metadata (if any) was wiped, then that makes it even harder to track down.

This was the case of the "Holy Plains" conundrum. The "documentation", if you even want to call it that, was just a list of sites, with no specifics about what thing came from where. If there was metadata, it was wiped. Thankfully, I was helped by OldPat. I got lucky that time. The next time? Who knows?


Glad you got some needed help there! I hope to continue to document these things better, so hopefully in the future I won't have these problems XD

*Edit: On a more positive note, I suppose this project pushing back Izrand doesn't bother me to much. In the end, you should do what you feel is right, and where your inspiration is bludgeoning pointing you towards.


Yay thanks! I'll be going back to Izrand development in full force soon, this shouldn't take too long! :D

Awesome! Looking forward to Luxaren Allure Remastered!


Thanks so much, Red! You've always been supportive of this game (I think you had the first comment on the gamepage as well) so thanks for always cheering me on! :DDDD

STEAM RELEASE INCOMING!!! Feb 6th!!!

author=Malandy
And it's out and free! Wow!

... Who's Sapphire Dream Games? Cool name, whoever it is.

That's my Steam developer name. I've been struggling for a while with the fact that "unity" is easily confused with the game making engine, is hard to google, and is basically just part of the name of a very old unreleased project, so I decided to try something new :D

STEAM RELEASE INCOMING!!! Feb 6th!!!

Whaat that's so cool Unity!! I will definitely grab it for Steam when it's out!


Awesome! Thanks Gourdy! :DDD

Who would have guessed I'd one day be able to say I worked on a game that was on steam?

Congrats. Buying it on Steam would be a good opportunity to finally remember to check this out, lol.


Thanks Roden! :DDD I feel like W&U wouldn't look or feel nearly as good if not for your contributions!

CRUSH ENEMIES AND SURVIVE!
What kind of Steam Achievements can you implement in a RM game? I have a dozen in my Steam list and I haven't tried even one of them yet ಠ_ಠ I feel so horrible.


I'm very code dumb, so I stuck to normal stuff like reaching big moments in the game and a whole bunch for finding all sorts of secrets. I'm sure there's a ton more you could do tho!

This is BIG NEWS!

Day 1 "purchase"!


Thanks so much! :DDD I'm really excited! ^_^

Nice! Are there any considerations to having other games be on Steam? Like, I could see Izrand Allure possibly going there, and, perhaps, by extension, Luxaren Allure?


Yeah, I think Izrand will for sure whenever I get it done! As for Luxaren, about 70%+ of the animations are rips, and some of the SFX are from other games. I'd probably want to remaster it in MZ and replace all those before even thinking of putting it on Steam XD But something to consider for the future, esp if people like the idea!
