In the past, there was a hero named Frail. Frail was a top-notched Seargeant. He would risk his life, aswould anybody else in his homeland of Urgsun. He, aswell as many others, were taught that killing was the only honor and merit in life. Until one day, a saint named "Yuqua" had arrived to Urgsun from the land of Garrian to teach the true meaning of life and spread teachings. Frail met this man, and his view on life has changed. A year later, that saint died due to the neighbouring country, Juchiar (known by 'Juche') had attacked Urgsun due to their starving population. Little did Frail know, his fate was going to changer from that day foward. And thus, the story of the Lancers began.

Alright, AbsoluteIce has made a return :)
As of the moment though, I don't know where the story is heading; you've basically told us the backstory (it's pretty similar to your other game btw :P). But not what will happen?
Reveal some plots :D

I was going to go Super Saiyan on the story telling, but my internet connection backfired on me, sadly. Don't worry, I got it all plotted out though :P.

Don't copy me :aryan: Only I get to Super Saiyan a story in a project thread :P
(JK)
But still, an intro plot would be lovely ^-^
Also do you plan on reusing your old sprites from 'Two Continents'?

Only a few. The others lack quality. So.. Creating my own would be the best idea. :P

The screenshots look nice, but if possible, you should move the character in the back view battle system a bit further back it looks a little funny (Unless he moves that close during attacks, then forget what i said).

The character moves like that during attack. Notice the "Damage" sign :P

On one of those screenshots, there seems to be a problem that keeps bothering me. My eyes keep getting drawn to one spot in particular The bridge LOOKS like it is much higher than the ground. You look at the land and it appears to be maybe a foot above water while the bridge looks to be a few feet above water with the sides. That is really my only gripe for now.

and even more sub-text under the sub-text of your sub-text ???
I think it's "Undeniable Beauty" but a lot of it is hidden under the black leaves. I agree that there are too many subtitles/subtext on the title screen though.

Sorry for the long reply. About the many text's, and sub-texts, and the other sub-sub-text on he titlescreen.. Don't worry. The titlescreen transistions to other pictures. But you'd like me to change it, then that's no problem. ^-^.

No need to do anything spectacular, just need to remove the unneeded words from the screen :)

Substituting the default script picture in the title screen would probably be a good idea. :P
There's all these little pieces of building stuck together and it doesn't really make any sense. And what's up with the puzzle pieces? ???

Another update, golly gee. :o
- Demo will be updated in a later date due to school, work, and lazyness. <-- Ain't that the truth? :mad: - Feature ; you're given a choice. Whatever your choice is, it'll alter the game. (ex, you can either attack the enemy or defend your base) - Two battle systems might be in the game ::)

Yo, Absolute!
Your game is looking pretty cool so far, and some of the graphics and maps are nice. :)
However, I recommend not using so many colors with things like windowskins and backgrounds. Maybe you should pick color schemes with a few colors, and a neutral color. :) Just a recommendation, in case it helps!
Good luck with the game!

Update ; Due to people requesting that I host the game file on another site, everytime I upload a game from now onwards, I'll upload it to various filehosting sites. Just give me a preferred filehosting site, and I'll upload it on that site. ;8

It takes around 45 minutes if you complete the dungeon quickly. But don't download this version, because I checked that there were a few bugs in it. I'll upload a fixed version, and added content tomorrow. ^-^
