Title: Symphony of Alderra: Memoirs of Life
Post by: Sthrattoff on February 15, 2009, 03:26:39 AM
Preface
Actually, this is an old project. After removing the old topic that abandoned and retiring from my absence for some time, I decide to continue it with brand new idea and systems.

Description
"Everything started with understanding and ignorance will end it."
2880 years after earth catastrophe, the world of Alderra, which is a "parallel" world of the old earth that destroyed after thermonuclear wars, face its first global-scale conflict in 2880 A.C. (After Catastrophe) after assassination of Kingdom of Sayate's Emperor. Condition get worse after United People's Republic of Unislav invade Reichland-Al-Mulk borders. Common people think these events are separated, but some others not...

Characters (currently)
Sthrattoff von Shutroheim
A young assassin specialized in using various sniper rifle. Have no relative, he was found on an abandoned incinerator in Reichland. His "Family" picked and raised him, in the ways of Assassins.

Lunilync Frei
Sthrattoff's twin brother, but passed away few moments after his birth. Childish and Egoist. He show himself sometimes in form of a ghost.

About the Project
Now talking about the project. Actually I can't do this alone. I need graphical artist especially for character sprites. From this thread I wish to invite some of my friends here, they are:
and some others that I think can help:
but I open this project to everyone that wish to help. I really appreciate and looking forward for your participation on projects.

That is all I can describe for now.

Heh, interesting. I know you said that this is all you can describe right now, but I do want to hear more. I'm assuming the game has a certain political flavoring to it?

In anycase, interesting.

Care to explain what you mean by 'animated map'?

As for other systems...You've got an ammo system or at least got one planned, right?

What I mean with Animated Map is the entire tileset will be animated, so you will see tree leaves blown by wind, etc.

Yeah, you remind me! Thanks! Ammo system. But I need to find a TBS first, so I can adjust the Ammo system fit with it.

Horrible title.

I've got a TBS stashed away somewhere.

*Blows the dust off my script folder.*

I've got two.

- GTBS (Animated and non-animated)
- ZTBS

I think they should be your first port of call. If I remember rightly...ZTBS is easier to customise, but I'm not quite sure.

Weird name with unconventional storyline. Don't judge a book by it's cover.

@ShellShocked: Maybe I'll use Nick's TBS. I get used to it and it is very flexible and use no SDK.

Update:
I'm developing an othello minigame.

Alright. Good luck with this project. Been waiting for someone to make a decent TBS game. If you need any help, I'm sure I can lend a hand.

Talking about othello game, do someone know how to make an AI?

Othello = Reversi, yes?

If so; a simple yet effective Reversi strategy is to try and capture the four corners of the board. If you made the AI try to achieve that it should prove a semi-challenge.

I've used Nick's TBS, and I have to warn you, there is a huuuuuuuuuuge bug.
Sometimes you'll get a pathfinding error, which is completely unavoidable.

Nick also doesn't support his TBS anymore, so it won't be fixed unless you can find a third party patch.

I switched to ZTBS for my own game, and it works fine, GTBS is also a great option, with a lot more as far as battle mechanics go.  If I ever make another TBS, I'd use Gubid's

Hhhmmm....

Maybe I'll use GTBS, but I think I will heavily modify it. So I can't promise the demo will available soon, but don't worry, I'm working on it (even when I'm doing final exams).

Othello...
Hmmm...
