Sounds good XD. But make sure you post pics about it.

There are requirements to these kinds of threads. Other than that, good luck

Thanks so much for givin' me credit for the storyline. But yeah, this game is gunna be good.

oh yeah, credits go to riku994 for story ideas Choas what do yo mean by screen shots? just of maps, cuz i only started on the maps

Yes, screenshots of maps are required but thats fine for a bit since you are working on them. No worries for now

Yeah, that's why you should make the game a bit before you post it.

i can give ya a screen of the farm Alastier is raised on.
and im gonna start on the plains to the fort right now

alright, geez...

That's a pretty good map. Lookin' forward to more screens and a demo when it's available.

here are screens of all the places

Its not me who is forcing you, Im just saying some sort of pic is needed. And when you do post it just edit your first post.

alright, what do you think of Knighthood for a name?

Typo errors in your first post. XD Anyways, that sounds like a good name and I might think some up, too. How about... "Inheritance of Knight-Errantry"? XP

1. i dont really care for typo errors unless theyre really bad and
2. what the FLIP does the name mean!

well, it's about him upholding family honor, right? "The Legacy of Alastier" seems to fit.

2. what the FLIP does the name mean!

This place will tell you: http://www.dictionary.com Also, I was planning on using Legacy but that was kinda cliched (NOT AS CLICHED AS "INHERITANCE" >:]) so I used my word.

I like Legacy of Alastier.

ok so far names ive made up/gotten are :
knighthood,
judgement,
inheritence blah blah dont wanna type it all,
the legacy of alastier

i though of just now :
family honour,
alastiers honour,
alastiers legacy


tell me what yuo think and ill take the majority

yeah legacy is overused but the thing is though that the word "legacy" actually fits the game, unlike the rest of the noob faggots.

thats true, so ill go with alastiers legacy for now. ill make a title screen and post it.

since the game is based sorta in scotland, i used names from scotland, i found this pic of a lake and i think this title screen is pretty sweet


EDIT : THIS TITLE SCREEN WORKS, I GOT RID OF OLD ONE

Just in case, I brainstormed some amazing names

A Knight's Tale
Blades of Glory
The Last King of Scotland

Blades of Glory is a movie about two guys skating! For gods sakes!

thats true, it was really funny by the way, also alastier isnt the last king of scotland, he just some commoner, like William Wallace the coolest scottish guy ever. so last king of scotland is out. and knights tale doesnt really work cuz your not a knight.

I likes your maps. They're just too empty and you didnt use common-sence. What I mean is, why is a sprite which is designed for a prisoner is working in a rich looking shop.

hes a farmer, and how can i fill them up? ive used mostly everything in the tileset so tell me how and i will

Re-use the things in the tileset?

alright fine! ill fix up alastiers house then ill post it and you tell me if its filled enough, im usually good at this though and thats pissing me off

hmm i know u already decided a name but how bout the main title as "alastiers legacy" then sub title underneath "Rise To Honour" jus tryin to help good luck with ur project xx

that is a good subtitle...how bout i change it and see what ppl think

well i like it hun xx lol looks interestin lemme know when a demo is up x

Deuresco you're such an idoit! If someone calls you hun you just accept it... Sheesh. But yeah, Rise to Honour is nice.

god damn, jsut leave me alone, im gonna go sit in a corner...and thats also what im known for around where we live, being dumb. i mean cmon i jumped off my house for no reason what so ever. im dumb that way

awww lol im 18 hun so...anyways lemme know if u need help ill see what i can do xx

yeah if i need any help ill just ask, plus riku helps me out

Deuresco usually doesn't need help with mapping, but storylines don't come easily. But that job is taken by Yours Truly... But he'll probably need help beyond my reaches some day.

that is so true, and eventing im good at that too i guess...but yeah storyies are my worst element. i fail everytime we gotta write a story or poem or essay so im nae good at tha'

here a screen of the fork in the path south, fort osdale where your headed, north stirling castle(actually a castle) and east is mingary, your farm

...I was actually talking about the shop

Really.  I'm making Judgement+, so you can't have it.  REALLY good maps, btw, for someone I've never seen.

im not using judgement, but thanks for the tip, and you like my maps? i think they look like crap compared to some ive seen

so you want me to make the shop more filled up? i can do that, gimme 2mins!

EDIT : here it is, is it filled enough for ya?!

here are 2 screens of fort osdale, inside and out.

EDIT : i modified the fort a little, i made an induction office which is were you go and you get a badge saying your in the army and you then you go so yeah...

That's actually very good.

ya think? its my first real attempt at a fort

That's good! You destroyed one of the RPG cliches. The inside of the building is the same size as the outside.

Yeah, he has a tendency to do that.

There's a bit too much repetitiveness of the small details, but other than that, yeah, they're great.  I advise maybe editing the tilesets some, add a couple more details, especially on the fort, the top makes my eyes bleed from too much of the same thing.

well, i would combine 2 tilesets but whenever i do that, i always clip just a tiny bit and plus the shadows always get darker. any tips? cuz i will try, im using photoshop 7

very nice screenies i can see u put a fair bit of effort into your mapping, btw im very glad u decided to use Rise to Honour Keep up the good work hun xx

yeah, i take pride in my maps, and no prob ill be sure to put you in the credits

heres a pic of my extremly badly draw overview of what the Rhefails plains are gonna sorta look like.

EDIT : each sqaure on the map is 23x19

Wow, that is extremely bad...

yeah! you dont even plan out your maps, and besides at least it gets the job done!

Yeah whatever works for ya... I just do what comes to me. That's why i suck at mapping and am a better storyline maker. I hope your game comes along great.

i hope so, but you should plan out your maps, it helps a lot
