Presentation

Hartacon is an online game that allows people to challenge each other in multiplayer battles. It is not a MMORPG.
Each player will have the opportunity to create one or more parties with a given amount of Upgrade Points (UPs). Adding characters to a party and buying equipments consumes the party's UPs. UPs can be gained by winning online battles.

It looks pretty cool. Good work!

OMFG This game looks awesome  :D anyone who disagrees is a nazi....

So this is an RPG Maker project? I wouldn't think of it at first. Very nice job.
If you had done it completely from scratch, I'd ask if it ran on Linux but...lol
Still, great job

Wow, this does look pretty legendary. Nice work.

I agree with everyone else, this looks pretty frickin' cool!

Thanks for your comments, I would like to hear critique and suggestions too if you play the game.
For whom was asking, yes, this is an RPG Maker XP project, even though only traces of the original code of RMXP are left.

EDIT: Version 1.5 available.

It would be so aweasome if it was good as the videos does show!

Sadly, the lag made me give up..would take 1 minute to perform 1 attack =(

What do you mean by lag? Low fps or waiting for other players to make their move?

EDIT: I found an error in the handling of objects that killed the fps. Download version 1.5d.
Also, I have a new video out:
