Maybe if I post some screen shots and more ideas, I could get some people to help. :P
Game's Story
No one knows how long our world of Evalice has been Reborn.... Legend says that this "Evalice" that we are living in now is not the original. Scholars from every part of the world of every race are searching for the answer, some clue as to what the old world was like.... and why it was remade.
Though because of rivalries of the Five Kingdoms Of Evalice, travel has been nearly limited. Constant war and struggles has dragged most of the attention of everyone on to each other. Each kingdom is in for it's own gain; be it land, wealth, power, or all three. No one knows when the wars will stop.... but some feel it is soon.
The search for knowledge, the search for justice, and the search of power is all deeply infused with the world of Evalice. But the choice is yours.... Several chapters are about to be written, and based on your choices the world can be shaped in nearly anyway available.
Main Characters
There are several main characters, each with their own story. I would like to have it were when you beat one characters story, another one becomes available. But for the demo, there will be EDIT: One character. You can name him, and he has intertwining story lines, and rivalries.
First Characters:
These character's names are made by you, but here is their story.
The two free characters are starting out in the year A.R. 2000, the two characters were both mercenaries and life long friends, but while they were attacking a castle belonging to the Thane's, their employers turned on them and captured them both. They were both stripped of their weapons and clothes, and were thrown into the Prison Of Demoral, where vicious things happen to it's prisoners.... They have been separated, but each were planning on how to escape.... Four months of being in the Prison, a blast shook the prison, sending it's guards to where the blast was located, leaving the chance for the two mercenaries to escape....

Team!
Me, myself, and mehe.
I am working on getting maps and other things done, and I'll probably have the demo done in this month, or more. Depends on my time and help. But yeah, criticism and ideas are very helpful. I hope to make this game at least a 4 out of 5! XD
But of course, there are more races than just humans. I am writing a series of books on this, and if I ever get one done,this place will be the second to know.
Game Percent To Being Completed: 0%
Demo Completion: 10%
Lol, is Evalice pronounced similarly to "Ivalice"? :P
No, but the story sounds intriguing. I'm also delighted at the resurgence of RM2k3 ^^
Eh-Vah-Lace
I guess, but no it's not based on that XD
I adore your storyline. Iam looking forward to your demo and books.
I added another screen shot.
I also decided to have one character for the demo to see how it will work out then I will release V.2 of the demo! XD
But yeah, for the demo there will be Three classes, around 10 quests, and a few components in.
Classes in the screen shot from left to right:
Free Warrior, Free Mage, Free Ranger
I'm working on the mage, and for the ranger you have the option of taking off the hood and face mask, taking off the hood but leaving the mask, or keeping them both on.
I think I'll add a helmet for the warrior, if you guys think he should get one of course....
And uh, any suggestions for how the mage should look?
What's wrong with the windowskin? It looks unfinished and ugly.
Im not a big fan of 2k3, so Im just saying good luck with it.
I dunno what's with the Window skin, it's just temporary. I might try to make my own, never have before though.
EDIT: Do you mean the Window skin with New, Load, etc? Or the background? For some reason I can only import one type of image files into 2K3 and it messed up the background :(

Mmmmm, several words...(well alot more)
For one:
Has Fable influenced you in any way? Alot of it I can pick up, the house buying system for example, or the 3 Arch-Classes. Well, basically, its just pretty much in every ideal, a perfect game!
Just one other question: Will this game feature an aging system? Like where you can get older, have children (non-graphically of course, though how you would get it graphical in 2k3 would be amazing, lol).
It's not hard to get it graphical... I've seen some stuff sprited with Chrono and Marle from Chrono Trigger. But really, I never thought about a aging system. Plus right now I'm a one man team who doesn't know how to do that. XD
And no, Fable hasn't. But, I've played it before. And as for the three classes, there will be more, but I think for now those classes will do til I get a team.
The features are very interesting, and although simple in some way very practical and useful. :P
The graphics needs some work though.
Good Luck on finishing the game. ;D
