NOTE: I've been on this forums before, and I remember something of posting here before, but I don't know if this topic was about the same project, but I reregistered, so we'll see.
Dijinii
Foreword
Well, Dijinii is the typical RPG, your a hero, you must kill bosses, kill final boss, game complete... Not.
Dijinii keeps you going, you must solve everything yourself, you get minimal clue's, tougher enemies then normal. Dedicated Storyline's. People who really live by the day. Alot of errands and other things. Ofcourse theres the main storyline, but theres alot of side way's to this too.
Atleast, that's the plan ;D
Storyline
Not finished...
Long ago, men spoke of a legend. A myth... It was such of those legends, that nobody really believed. So they got forgotten and only few people remembered them, most of them we're travellers, travelling from town to town, telling the tale for a coin.
The myth, that this one is about, was about a great evil. It lived in the depth's of the Earth, waiting for a return. Nearly five-hunderd years ago, that monster did indeed escape. Sevipher is the name it listens to. Sevipher - A long long snake - escaped from deepest of the earts, when he arrived, in the central of a prosperous land, he quickly rallied his followers, all spread throughout the land, they summoned a Large tower...
There Seviper remained for a week. Creating his evil plan, after that, he ran the world into despair and doom. Using Demon magic, he created cities from clay, and wrecked them with his razorsharp tail. The Clay-cities reprensentated the cities in the North, South, East and in the West. All of them ran into chaos. And when the hour of doom came - The very Core of the Peace of the Land got Corrupted - A band of four kids arrived at the tower, they combined their strenghts, and defeated Sevipher.
The Core became Cleansed and the lands began Regenerating... Cities we're rebuild, and the nature came back...
End
That's what the storyline is, now your a hero, a kid. Grown up in the West. One of these Story Tellers comes to your Town, and he tells the town the story... Later, he wishes to speak to you. He tells you the Story is true, you don't believe anything of it. However, there are facts throughout the lands, that indicate the story IS true, but nobody believes it...
End of Storyline
Characters (Finally!)
Note that I am no Expert at doing characters allright? ;)
The "You" Person
Joke: This person has no name. He is better then you. Sadly, even for him being god, you control, sad eh?
Allright, serious now. This "You" Person is the person you control, everyone will adress you with "You", the character has no real name. He has your Emotions, you feelings, your toughts. It all depends on how you think how you react on the other players. That's the truth, the hard truth. However, you can't pick your own class, so there are some things you must Realize.
-Background Story
The "You" Person, is one of the four "Chosen" (Spoiler!), you are grown up in a small town in the East of the Kingdom, nothing special about You, you are you. I think that is normal now.
-Class: Soldier
You like swords, big swords, no shields, and plate armors, if you don't bad luck, as you must use them anyway. (It has been like that forever with RPG's, don't complain, swords are just the best.)
-Skills:
Critical Strike - Deals X Damage to Target, plain simple uberpwn skill, you might want to spare your mana till your fighting bosses as it takes alot of mana but deals wtf-your-pooned-damage. Huzzah.
Overwhelm - Deals some decent damage, and stuns the opponent for one turn. (Even bosses. Isn't that fun? You actually survive one turn longer.)
Poon - Yes it's actually like that, but it's nothing poonage at all, it just a nice skill that deals low damage, to all mobs at the same time, letting you enter command state, healing the party. (Atleast, that how it should work.)
More to come?
Features
-ABS Combat (I need some help with this, it seems to make lag like an Idiot. Maybe this is just me, but does somebody know there is a fix for this? I couldn't find one, but it kinda screws the whole game up... -.-0 ^^)
-Alot of quests, to keep you playing
-Interesting evolve of the Storyline, to keep the game fun.
-Good Maps. (I have quite much Expirience in 2D Mapping, and this is much alike it.)
-Tough Enemies, now simply two strikes won't do it. (Infact, it are 5)
-Good Bosses with alot of Events (A boss is -more- then just fighting him, kk? :P)

People Needed?
I am in need of someone who is better at creating sprites/tilesets/2D Art then I am.
Oh yes, I am in search of a scripter to, as I presume that Scripts from RMRK and hbgames.org won't do... I am not sure.
Dijinii...try saying that 10 times fast :D
I liked the part with the clay cities and running the real cities into destruction. Has something of voodoo in it.
Heh, yes. I got that off Warcraft III, well that inspired me, where Archimonde rises Dalaran out of the ground, and smashes it to pieces using his claws, with the result of the fall of Dalaran, really cool cinematic blizzard made with it.
However, Blizzard, as far as I am concerned, your the Coding Master of this Forum, do you know fix for the lag ABS makes, I got the one from Near Fantastica, V2.0, it should be on hbgames.org.
My character also seems to be running lots faster, I don't see why :-\
Anyway, thanks for the comment.
@Nicholas: I actually tried it, haha :D
