After 9 months of hard work, we are pleased to announce the full release of Lodestone2d Chapter 1!


General Description:


Lodestone is a  2-dimensional  RPG currently in construction by university students. The impetus for  this project was a common love for video games and more specifically  Roleplaying games. Using what tools we have available, our mission is  to create a vibrant, rich, and immersive video game.
 We are  planning to create a six-chapter game, with each chapter delivering 3-4  hours of gameplay.To those who  enjoy a homegrown RPG experience, Lodestone2d awaits.


Chapter's 1 Plot:


In Chapter 1 you will begin Lodestone in an army  camp, and as a member of a special unit that is being deployed into a  hostile city. This is to be your last mission before you are allowed to  return home to his love, but things end badly and you are forced to  escape. This starts your journey. From this point on you will have to  struggle across dangerous terrains and deceiving puzzles, battle  through technologically advanced enemy soldiers, gain and lose  friendships and encounter unique and deadly monsters.[/color][/color]

Traeus (23):
Traeus is a Myrian noble sent to war  by the newly-ascended king Jecter so that he can marry Meia. Jecter  started this war for an unknown reason, and rumors abound that it was  simply to boost his own ego. As Jecter is not really liked in the  kingdom, he could not have ordered Traeus killed without his own  position being precariously jeopardized. Traeus has trained in the art  of combat in the court, but has no real combat experience. To this end  he makes an average soldier from the beginning of the game, but is  elevated to the rank of corporal because of his rank at court.

Meia  (22):
Meia is another noble from the Myrian court. She is betrothed to  Traeus and will marry him when he returns from war. She is missing in  the beginning part of the game except in dreams and memories. She will  appear later in the game.
