Ok, so i used to love RM2k bakc when it first came out and made lots of very short games on it. I was surfing the net a couple of week ago and found that there was a new version... Great!
So heres an anouncement my first project with RMXP, It's caled lineage. I hope i can expalin it.
Opening/Intro; 4 space pods containg 1 child each are headed for a small planet, sent by their race to conquer. Along the way one of the pods gets damaged (or is sabotaged, havnt decided yet) and takes 200 years longer to reach the destination planet.
The player wakes up in what appears to be a crash not knowing who he is. After a little exploration a strange man rushes you off into hiding. After some starter quests you find out that the current leaders of the planet are imortal and have ruled for nearly 200 years, and are searching for you. They intend to kill you because you were their prince, when they realised you hadnt made it all that time ago they took the power for themselves. Living as god among men, with their technlogy.
The strange man knew this as he was once one of there old elite knights but quit when he found out the truth.
So, so far theres you and this guy hiding from the authorities with orders to kill you. Aswell as this theres and underground movement, who kno the truth about the rulers and plan to kill them along with you for fear you might do the same.
The planet itself is a standard fantasy fare with some bits of technology injected into, especially wherever the rulers resdie.
Above is a pic of the island your pod crash lands on ( the rubble). Credits to Inq for the tileset, its awesome.
A pic of the crash site, just using rtp and a crystal charset from phylomorits, After doing this i realised that superman seems to be a source of inspriration. Dont let that put you off though im gona steer away form it abit more from here onwards.
