Story
For 237 years a man called Meraph has been secretly overthrowing half of the world. It was not known about till around 43 years ago. This half of the world that has been overthrown has been turned into something that the people of Ethran know as Destroyed Space.

Destroyed Space is nearly unexplainable. It is one of the many corners of the world and the places where the laws of nature do not exist. No-one knows why Meraph is causing this chaos but it is know that it has to be stopped.

There are two organizations who are trying to do this. One of them is called: Memory Of Before Chaos and the other is called: Dead But Alive. Memory Of Before Chaos is using 'Special' people called Matterers to stop the Destroyed Space whilst is taking over certain parts of Ethran. But know there is only one Matterer left. All the rest have been personally taken out by Meraph himself. The Last Matterer lives is the town of Beston which is foolishly built upon Destroyed Space. This town is unique because of this; its most startling feature being that there is lava, water and trees right next to each other. The town is also freezing cold.

However... Dead But Alive are fighting Meraph for a much different reason to Memory Of Before Chaos. No-one knows for sure apart from one single soul...



Characters

Hamstt
Age: 23
Hometown: Beston
Hamstt is the one and only last Matterer. After being in training at the Memory Of Before Chaos hideout in Beston he took on his mission of saving Sophia who went missing for 3 days in the Ancient Cavern. He is very sarcastic and this clashes with Sophia's personality but they do become friends. In the end...

Sophia
Age: 20
Hometown: Crackle Reef
Sophia is a very strong willed girl who can defeat anyone in a sword fight. She unwillingly joins Hamstt as instucted by the Memory Of Before Chaos Leader. She has a very proud personality which helps her win arguments but doesn't win her many friends.

Leader
Age: 51
Hometown: Unknown
His real name isn't Leader. He is just knows as that becuase no-one knows his real name apart from a single soul. He is the leader of Memory Of Before Chaos and a good one at that. Apart from this not much is known about him.

Demonic
Age: Unknown
Hometown: Unknown
Less is know about Demonic than Leader. All people know is that he is the strongest member of Dead But Alive and that he has self appointed himself as Hamstt's rivel.

I'll comment on your videos.
The intro video was pretty good, but it was boring sitting there watching the rain for 30-40 seconds before you get to see text and stuff. Also, wicked mapping error with the lava in the scene. Looks so awful. Like you painted animated red and orange glue on the side of a cliff lol. The perspectives are off hard. The 'good friend' walks on the edge of the cliff when he walks away. Like he wants to fall lol. In the battle, the sound effects to your animation of the player attack is a little delayed. You watch him spin, then a second passes, then the sound effect for it occurs.

Other mapping errors include the oddly colored floor tiles in the house then after the battle scene. Also getting to the house was odd. They kind of just teleported there. It felt really detached and fake doing it like that. Perhaps having them walking off screen then it fades out. Also, the general mapping of the house is fairly bare. I don't think you need the odd 'Up' sound effect after you sleep and you read the displayed text. [Also, I love your shrine tiles. Amazing.] Your outdoors is EXTREMELY bare. You should read some mapping tutorials. Lol for the epic entrance those slimes have in the basement. Other than that, your menus are cool, but you should customize them so they aren't so...Mog.

Then for the boss battle. That's just really weird that you name slimes that are stronger literally "Stronger Slimes". You should give them a different name certainly, also try changing their hue instead of using the same sprites and characters over and over. Fenrir is lookin' good though. Also, I didn't hear any sounds other than the Battle Background Music during that fight. You also might want to look in to what that fight drops as far as items are concerned because one of the victory messages was 'was found'. Instead of '[item] was found', so you're missing some data there.

Overall, I think it was pretty good. There's just a few minor things I think should be changed and your mapping needs work. Other than that, it's fine.



Also, here are a couple links to some mapping tutorials by a couple of our best mapping forum members:
