Introduction
Long ago in a town called Limblum was a man named Shawn. Shawn has 2 best friends, Cory and George. One morning Shawn was going to get Cory and George to go to work. As they left they received information that the mayor greatly needed their help. They rushed over to the mayors house and were informed that King Nero of Argh has ordered all soldiers to report to the city. At the city Nero spoke of great evil attempting to take over the entire world. He sends them all out to search for the being except for Shawn, Cory, and George. He says the only way for the being to be defeated is if he obtains full angel armor, shield, helmet, sword, and Angel ring. He sends you out to collect the items so you can help him defete the Dark Seraph.

Irock · January 03, 2007, 07:09:54 AM

coolkid25344 · January 03, 2007, 04:51:50 PM

I've iimprooved it alot and I put out the world smallest demo because I didn't have screenshots up lol. So I'm going to start working hard. I didn't want to make the house too nice because the main hero doesn't have much money. I have also added an advanced messaging script.

Irock · January 04, 2007, 12:36:59 AM

And It's two 20x16 maps and a 30x30. and the rooms won't be so empty in the next demo whcih will include a side quest.

All of you need to learn how to edit posts instead of double and triple posting.

ALso, Irockman, please try and do more than just change the color of the RTP charsets, and at least do not use arshes.
Im simply giving you advice to make your game better.

The sample map is...ok. Check out some of the mapping tutorials in the designated section of the forum for some help.

I can't find any sprites with matching battlers.

Lord Dante · January 04, 2007, 02:12:16 AM

there are tons of battlers everywhere. Also, you can edit or commision either a battler or a charset from a piece of art from the interwebs, e.g. the entirety of the planet Earth, so any excuses about resources are pretty lame if you have google.

Not trying to be harsh.

Thanks. If you played the demo on the site I'm so sorry, lol. I don't know what I was thinking. But the game will be great.

Winged · January 04, 2007, 09:16:43 AM

1. The logo needs a bit of work, maybe find someone who uses some sort of image editing program (eg: Photoshop, GIMP) and ask them to make a logo.

2. As for the demo, sorry but I'm not in the mood to play, maybe when I have a good night sleep for once...

Looks like nothing special yet to me, keep working on the site and update a lot so you can bump to attract attention.

Thank you for the logo.

And as for the screenshot...That map isn't supposed to look great. I just started the game and haven't made the nicer areas.

Irock · January 05, 2007, 02:16:42 AM

Attention everyone! I will be adding a fishing to the game! They can be cooked into food. I will include as many fish as I can. You will have the option to sell or cook the fish.

Wait, I just noticed that. I sort of got rid of my old logo so could you get it ASAP? Thanks

Lord Dante · January 05, 2007, 05:45:18 AM

Please edit your posts instead of triple posting, it is a basic forum rule.

Also, fishing game sounds interesting.
