While this site has been down I have been working on a new title... I have dropped Aidin for now...
Here's the Title screen:-
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.theforge.slyph.org%2F1.jpg&hash=6f11417a32774ed2a813243d6c3e2931f7d7cc7b)
This game is shaping up pretty well... The basic idea is some Dark Wizards are attacking towns for fun and killing people, using them for experiments and spells... You don't find out until much later on in the game the other reasons and plots... (But I don't want to spoil it too much)....
The Good guys:- (The 5 playable from the start) - You start as a Glowing pulsating Orb !!
Starting from the left:-
1. Bolo----2. Yoko----3. Luke----4. Lustat----5. Lufia
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.theforge.slyph.org%2F2.jpg&hash=2f70216753130ab00039f6815fedde5b459e0524)
Once you choose your player their Intro follows:-
Bolo - Was attacked by the Dark Wizards as a Child, the Wizards attempted a spell to fuse a cursed gaunlet to Bolo... Cutting off his hand and adding the Gaunlet to him... The spell didn't seem to work, the Wizards left Bolo for Dead.... Bolo Now wants revenge !!!
Yoko - The Dark Wizards went to Yoko's home Island and challenged the strongest of the Island folk to a fight... Yoko stepped forward... The Wizards Summoned a Demon and it hammered Yoko... Not happy that the fight was over so quick the Wizards turn their monster on all in sight... Its a Massacare...
Luke - Luke is from an Island of Warriors trained in horse ridding... They are peace keepers, and Luke is asked to set sail and look into the attacks by the Dark Wizards and bring down instant justice upon the Wizards...
Lustat - Lustat is a captor of the Dark Wizards, but when on an Island called Armishelm, when the Wizards stop by there for provisions they are attacked by the villages (You see the Villagers are kinda odd and have been mistaken and blamed for the Dark Wizard attacks)... Lustat gets wrongly hurt... the villagers nurse him back to health...
Lufia - Lufia over hears the Dark Wizards Bragging what they had done to Yoko's Island and how they plan to attack her own... she runs ahead and sets an ambush for the Wizards... and stops them from doing any harm... after they leave Lufia sets after them and to check on the Islands they may have attacked...

I have kept all the details to this fairly restricted and the screen shots are not the best from in game... But I hope it gives you guys enough to see this game could be good...
The 5 Storys do intwine... and the 5 players you get to use at the start are not (BY FAR) the only playable ones in the game... There are around 20 a current playable, but most only reach EXP level of 20...
Oh... I so want to tell you guys more on this...!!!
Oh... Ok.... Lustat, he can change forms... like cross mutate... When he kills certain creatures he can take on their form...
Goblin Transformation:-

the title screen looks awsome and I love how you can choose which character you use, i'mma keep my good eye on this one!
~Winged
Thanks Winged...
I have got a few custom Chars and some very nice elements to the game... here's a bit more...
Say if you choose to play the game as Luke... you can get to learn how to ride a horse, I have mede it so you gain extra skills and you can call or dismount your horse as a skill... I have made it so if you enter a dungeon or a building the horse leaves... (You can call the horse during a battle though)...
Choosing to play as a certain Person also changes how people will respond to you, like if your playing as Luke and you speak to the Barmen in Prirate cove he will take a fancy to you, being a man in uniform and ask you to do a twirl...
When your Lustat if you change your form some people may attack you or run away... Or jus refuse to talk to you all together...
So far I have worked on this title for around 4 months... And much of Aidin has been brought into the game... there are loads of secrets to be found...
And its like having 6 games in one... your now thinking 6 why 6...?
(One of the Big End features)
Well there are 5 People to choose from and once you complete it I will make it so you can choose to play as ANY of the playable people you have found or you can choose to play as the 4 Dark Wizards... you get to destroy all the towns and take out all the good guys and then turn on your own masters...
I have a fair bit to do still... in around another 4 months the game should be at Demo stage... I have not used many custom elements but the game is still pretty special...
After this title I have another that I want to make... and its going to be pretty much all custom...
Some Cat people I am working on for my game (there are two tribes fighting on the Main Land... the Cat people are the Jesspok tribe)
This is Jesspanthro, I made the Car from Shop keeper 1 and the battler I got from Google and added a Tabard
(https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ftheforge.slyph.org%2Fcatman.png&hash=4631c7f1b87913b3442b177d93dca63540521dd1) (https://rmrk.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ftheforge.slyph.org%2Fcatmanbat.png&hash=64833589e542519ae48aec044cea801a2b9cee81)
These are none playable Cat people - Lady Cat - Girl Cat and Fighter Cat...

All of the people in the town are Female accept Jesspanthro... (These people all speak Jesspok, so to understand them you have to learn their language...)
I have also made a Cannon for their Army... the way I did this was I took a Photo of a lego Cannon... It doesn't look great, so if any one has another cannon Char set please let me have a link to it... ;D

This game is coming along pretty well now... and it plays good... the creatures are at the right level to give a challange throughout playing... and the Events work very nicely...
Sorry for tripple posting... but its not like I am getting muh feedback... I Have worked blinking hard on this !!!!

~Winged
mine uses the same concept, u pick boy or girl, then your weapon (this decides your class), and then your name.
In my game the Change of Class Happens through Morphs, in Lustats Case and in Lukes case he Gets a Horse Call Skill... But I found that when you change classes you don't get to learn the skills that have already passed... IE say if your Human and a Fighter and you learn heal at say level 5 you then go to level 10... then you change class to say Demon and at Level 5 as a Demon you should have Darkness, you don't have it... all you have is heal... So I had to make some Common Events to work along side CLass changes to state if the Fighter skill Level 5 is obtained then also learn Demon SKill level 5... etc...
Its all good fun....
Wow Looks Reeli Good, Ur Title Screen Looks Awesome. Good Idea About The Transformation Thing, Like It :D
Gna keep Wacthin dis.
Reives - PMed me my 1st playtest come back !!!QuoteThe Entrusted Vengeance was pretty interesting; the different character selection with their individual backgrounds added quite a nice touch to the player customization overall. Also, the player seems to have a lot of freedom and does not follow the usual RPG fixed storyline kinda thing, which is a nice break from the rest. This is almost like a cross between a mmorpg and a traditional rpg
The mappings are mostly decent, although some places could use some touch up; such as houses were too huge and sometimes too empty in the interior comparing with its exterior. But it's better than most stuff I'm seeing on this site's forums. I read some mapping tutorials in the tut section on this forum, it helped a lot; you should check it out for the hell of it too~
Overall, nice work. The main thing that makes this project different from the rest is its freedom offered to the player; and that's an advantage distinguishing it from the rest.
Winged PMed me a Reveiw
QuoteThis demos pretty awsome, heres a quick review.
Ok, I have only played as Yoko and Luke and I must say its lookin good.
The mapping is decent and same with the multi characters. With Yoko, I found it hard to find that person, so I gave up.
With Luke, I think the party joining needs a bit more work. Like they ask for help and join the party until you help them with the request. Then something bad happens and they run off and you have to find them. Then you see something attacking them and they need help and its a boss fight. Then you go through a talk and join the party for real (unless something happens to them in the story)....something like that, like they formed a relationship, that makes the game more realistic and not like...."Look, theres a guy with a horse over there! Lets help him!". Or it can be a friend, either way its a relationship.
Anyway, when Luke finds the guy with the horse and runs off, have the guy literaly running off (unless my comp was lagging). And when you beat him, make a sort of event like him trying to run off again and a party member blocks where he is gonna run off and the n some guards come and arrest him. That way, instead of disappearing when you beat him its more eventful.
Also, when you rest at an Inn, make the screen fade out and play a sleeping SE or BGM or something and teleport them somewhere instead of saying "A few hours later" and teleport to their room.
Overall, the idea is good and the basic game layout is awsome. The mapping needs a little bit or work but thats not a problem cause its just a few little repairs. Overall, I give it a 7/10
~Winged
I will tidy up all your suggestions on the final version... Ta for play testing for me ;D

Sounds like a good idea just like landofshadows.
@landofshadows
np, it was fun playing (I still am, trying to find that stupid guy who knows dark magic.....god where the $%&* if he!!
Don't spoil me, I wanna find him with my own strength....... ;D
~Winged
The guy who knows Dark Magic ?...
Hmmmm there are a few... if your looking for Lustat when playing as any other Character, you wont find him yet... I have to add that into the demo... Smae with finding the other main Characters, the only one you can find on their starting Islands will be Luke... the others you will find in odd places like the mainland, or by doing tasks... I want to make them hard to join up with...
But if you want some one that knows dark magic then try Pirate Cove, there is one person there who knows Dark Magic... In the Port area at Pirtate cove there is a Crystal touching that will let you select change Party... and then you can choose any of the Party wannabe's you have come across...
Hits and Tips Below to help with the Demo
Now the Level 99'ers you can find in the Demo are limited to around 6, names and Locations below:-
Gillion - Templarius
Tink - Lotus Tropic
Blizzard - Armishelm (only joins if you have Lustat in your party)
Jesspanthro - Mainland
Stenson - Pirate Cove
Luke - Templarius
Dirka Dirka Boss - Mainland
The Characters that reach level 25 Are all over the place... you can find approx 3 on each Island...
To reach the mainland you need to find the Blind Girl at Pirate Cove...
I Think I now know the basics of the Editor...
I think I am going to leave Entrusted Vengeance unfinished...
I will leave the demo up until I have a Demo of my next game... The Guyver... Up and running.... And then Untrusted Vengeance will be no more...LOL ;D
I have found some great Scripts but to use them I would need to start from Scratch any way...
And I want to make a Custom game...
Please still give feed back as all feed back will help improve future games by me...
the party change thing in the inn where Lufia starts doesn't work properly
what do you do in Lufia's part after killing the old guys...
and why are chairs so far away from tables
way to easy to get to stuff that is way out of ur league
Yeah... That crystal in Lufia's home town does not work... There is one in Pirate cove try that one...
After killking the old guys, Go south to the coast there should be a boat.... Head some place else... You need to get the best party you can... There's not many monsters in this game, but the ones you do come across are strong...
The chairs are so far away from the tables as the people of this game have extendable arms...LOL
The stuff being easy to obtain, is only easy for Lufia... Now this may sound a little 60's but I was thinking Girls would choose to play as Lufia, so I tried to make it a little more fun, a little easyer and added more puzzles rather than battles... Lufia is more of a thinker than a fighter... The objects your obtaining now may be easy to get, but there not much help to Lufia... Lufia's quests etc are puzzle based so it does not make a difference if she has a good sword or not... Lufia also has the worst Defence, you need items to help her dodge attacks, so be care-ful what you equipe her with, they may slow her down...

I meant monsters
Edit: also, a lot of the stuff you have to do doesn't really have any reason behind, you just do it cuz some guy said to...
I only played with one character so far, and really, it's a great start for a game. I only have one request: please add a little diversity to the music selections. All up-beat, heavy tunes, all the time, is a little draining for me.
Good suggestion... But I have kind of dumped this project...
But I am adding custom music made by me in my next tile... !!!
I have two games I am working on:-
Ghost Hunter X
Guyver - Bio Storm
One suggestion...stick to one game! :D If you switch all the time you'll never finish any.
Also, would you mind if I took your demo and just messed around with it a bit? It won't be anything major, and I'll show it to you once I'm done. :)
Even IF you finish all your games, they won´t be very good. The best is to put some serious effort into one game instead of putting some effort into many games. =/ I speak out of experience.
Pixie - You can do what you like... Finish the project if you like, Call it your game !!!
Blizzard - I am now working on 3 Projects...
The Guyver Bio Storm - Big Fan Game project that I am moving very slowly on
Ghost Hunter X - Just done some Pencil Sketches for Battlers so Far
It Was this Big - A Fun Fishing game (Going to be a mini project)
Haha. I wouldn't go so far as to call it my own.
I just like messing around with things other people have started on, just to see if I can make it turn out much different than them. I'm no good at starting my own projects. :P
I played this mega good game
I think I may re-start making this title... But change it a little...
IE when you start, you choose your, Sex, then Class - Lancer, Warrior, Mage, Cleric etc...
Then choose say one of 4 Battler images for that Char, then name them...
Have recruiting area's to find more members for your party... etc...
Not sure... I am going to be more serious though... so don't expect the game any time soon... some of the old maps from the first outing may make an appearence...
this looks cool
Plz dont quote that as you have already said it..
Los have you fixed the sprit word problem yet?
*deletes spam* >:(
I played about 10 minutes into it. Note to self: bring more food :-) I will play it again oce I get back to something faster than my laptop.
I like the design it reminds me of Final Fantasy Leged. Everything is fun so far and not extremely drawn out like some RPGs.
Can't be asked to finish making this Game... I have dropped this title now...
I may remake it when I have more skill
This is a pretty good game actually. I just have one problem: There are many grammatical errors!
LOl can i write a review on this?
I like your mapping. It is pretty good. (i am saying thta from the look of the screenshots, I cannot find your demo link.)
Yes I agree with nouman, your mapping seems very good. You and nouman both seem to be extreamly good with mapping.
I have played through 2 of the stories so far, Lufia and Luke. With both I reached a point that could not be continued. I cannot seem to find the boat in Lufia's quest so I am assuming that is the point that you got to. I did enjoy Lufia's quest, but I found a few errors, like if you stay at the Inn the new characters always appear. I also felt that in Lufia's quest everything was given to you as opposed to working and buying things.
With your mapping. The inside of buildings are absolutely huge, while the outside of the same buildings are quite tiny.
I did enjoy the tie in with Coug the armor restorer and Lufia's old armor. I get a good sense of Dragon Warrior 4 from this game, where each character has their own stories, and then they meet up later. Plus the fighting arena is another tip of DW4ism.
In all I have played 40 minuts, 20 with each of the 2 characters I played and it has been legitimately fun and differently challenging with each character.
Ohh so I see this project is active again, best of luck...again ;D
~Winged
ITS NOT ACTIVE... I AINT MAKING IT ANY MORE... But thanks for the feedback...
If some body wants to they can carry on making it...
To get the boat on Lufia's story go north when you start, go in the hotel talk to the inn keeper he will give you enough money to sleep the night, add new party members... then go north of the town, and get 500G from the chest, go to the market buy the bag of marbles, go south kill some monsters at the base of the water area, the little red ones... get some cash, but some Oreale Feed from the chick by the bridge, feed the Big Winged creatures (Oreales) Buy loads of feed say 10... then head south to the cave by the beach, go in the cave give the marbles back to Ridik, return to the village, talk to ridik and his wife, a door to the right of the town will open, you train with the OLD warriors, talk to ridik again, he will say the boat is at the coast line, head south again to the cave and carry on south you should see the boat... LUFIA story completed... you can then go Monster Island or the Main Land... Lufia is the easyest of Chars to play through with...
I will Remake it one day... After I have finished making My new Title Ultimate Warrior:- http://rmrk.net/index.php?topic=5107.0
and The Guyver Bio Storm...
Ahh, I thought it was active again, my mistake :lol:
