Twin Edge: Post-Apocalyptic

Story:

The world had ended. The nuclear winter of the 22nd Century left the planet a grey, ashen wasteland. Those who survived made a pitiful living by killing those who had the most basic of supplies. The the skin of the planet may have been dead, but the planet itself was far from that. Deep within a giant chasm, a beast emerged and cleansed the planet of it's species and waste. The beast then vanished just a mysteriously and was forgotten as civilization rebuilt itself and began to thrive.


Millenia later, the countries of this new world were yet again of the verge of war, this time with an arsenal of powerful items and magic. The Earth, sensing another fatal crisis, prepared to send the beast into the fray, but the Gods that dwelt in the Aybss saw this. They soon developed a race of ultimate beings known as the YATSUU, or "Divine Eight", to vanquish the beast and return to the Abyssial Relm. However, it was only a matter of time before the YATSUU grew self aware of their situation and took advantage of the chaos on Earth.

But one YATSUU remained loyal. Taking up his blade, he single-handedly slew is brethren until all but one remained. In a climatic battle, it was said that the beast had been vanquished, and the remaining YATSUU swallowed by the Earth . . .

Hundreds of years later, a small peace had filled the world, but there was still a dark oppression seeping through it. Ancient alliances were crumbling and some prepared for war and as an old fear began to rise again. These are the days of Earth's final hour. These are the days, of Twin Edge.

FEEDBACK WOULD BE GREAT!!!! 

[/size]

alright looks good keep it going for me!

looks good, all except mapping. That should get imporved, and then I see a good outcome for this game.

Is there going to be custom sprites? I'm just curious...

i shouldent be doing this but i know what this game is about i ws working on it and sice kais comp is down and has been posting at school*edit* sry he did get his comp back so i guess he will update this later

I let him know about the maps thx

And yes there will be custom sprites

thx alot for the feedback i'll let him know for u guys

Sounds cool. I was also thinking of making a post-apopcalyptic game. But now I think I will rework it about.

Uhh, Yeah Yukimora, I'm actually here. I truly don't see anything really wrong with my mapping, I try to go for a simpler look because I don't want overcrowded things all over the place. But if you see something I can improve on, feel free tah tell. And yes, I will post some custom sprites soon if you guys want.

for the mapping, its just too square (I say this to everyone so please don't feel bad just take this as a good thing =D )

lets say I wanted to make that castle I see in your screenshot...I would make it not a big square:


and with indoors try making the rooms abstract, not just square:

Well, that was just a small insignificant room. But the advice is till pretty good (the fountain in your castle doesn't give it the asymmetrical look I'm trying to get at). I'll take it in mind. Thanks!

yep, NP i'm here to help.

good.

Interesting. I like your maps..as well as those character sketches you put up. I wish you luck with this project. 

Yeah thanks. I've got about 1.5% done right now, so it's doing alright. The only problem is that I basically am already finished with the story on paper, but the projected play time will be around 60 hours. 

Updated the pictures, just to let you know.....

Congrats on drawing your own characters.  I haven't seen much of that in these games. (Of course, I've only looked at a couple of the actual GAMES, so..)

Thanks, lol, just put up even more pictures. Hope with a little photoshop magic, these characters can become battlers.

ill work on them since i've made them before...

Thanks, lol, just put up even more pictures. Hope with a little photoshop magic, these characters can become battlers.

Maybe.  I have a lot of trouble working with pics on conputer. <course, it's partly because I don't have a tablet.  I SUCK at drawing with a mouse.  To give you a general idea of my suckiness, check out my game post "Shadow of the Fallen: Shattered Souls", and look at the battlers I posted.  Those each took like two or three hours of computer time to color and stuff. So...yeah.

Don't worry, I suck at drawing on the comp. too  ! These are all scanned from my comp. (and not all mine, some of the better ones my gf [KaireiIsORANGE] drew, some are Yuki's, most are mine)

Wow, looks cool, can't wait for the demo.

I would just like to say that the project is being re-scraped and renovated. Its about 2% complete.

The story has indeed caught my attention.   I agree on that the mapping could be improved.  But for the rest, I think it's a great start.  But if you say it's being renovated, then I am hoping to see the new information up soon.

Good luck!  Please make it into the finished projects list!

Sorry, its basically the same story, but Im renovating maps and such.

Good luck with the game, man. Looks pretty nice so far.
