About the settings -
This game takes place on a planet i made up, its called Elvira all sorts of mystical creatures alrealdy known and i've made up will live here so be on your toes.
Elvira is a rotting world at the moment some belive its due to the dark magic spreading over the world the planet has a different time system then us in real life. They have some religion but it is not widely accepted due to the planet being killed slowly.

Demo/Game Progress:

Spoiler for:

Good luck with your project.
Remember to stay on track.

Yeah, Thanks for the Good Luck. I plan on staying on track too, so far everything is going nicely.

Well for the Updates anyway.

Added Some new screenshots, A tome and History that will have a major affect in the game, and i shown one of the early mini games you do at the beginning. The mini game was a test try at making better ones so don't expect the bunny mini-game plenty fun its gonna be hard to see them in the snow.

I also re-written the story to fit how the game is turning out, Now athurn will not survive the Reveant first attack and you will not be exiled the same day Phaia joins the team.

Also i changed some of the character's occupations and biography.

Hopefully these changes are for the better and not the worse.

I hate to say it, but your mapping needs some serious hardcore work. 

Yeah, i noticed the mapping needs help. I'm guessing mapping is the hardest thing to do in a game, well for me anyway. I'll get right on making the map more uh less empty or have more Npc(s) and stuff. whatever is needed to. make it better.

nature should be more random that you have it
trees in a perfect line?
square water?

try to vary it up a bit, adn add more of the detail tiles

Updates -

New Title

No, you're okay.

Good job on the game!

Keep going.
Looks good so far.

Whoa! First Positive comments iam happier now. Thanks for them.

Well Anyway i noticied that i didn't have anything telling that my Game would be like "Teens" through "Mature" content so basically

New Screenshot - In the fortress

Spoiler for:

I would though like what people would think that room itself would conclude as, T or M.

Ah i think i should show that, Roy's clothing has been changed to fit his Face/Battle.

Spoiler for:

It looks good to me. By the way where can I get or use RPG Maker Face Creator? I know oe time I found a site where you could make XP character sets, but when I got a new computer I couldn't find that site anymore and been searching when I get the chance to.

Well i belive this is it -  http://www.creationasylum.net/index.php?showtopic=14375&view=findpost&p=158941
I would google it in Images, because the web searches bring up random crap not needed.
The one i got is a bit different but this one i had favored so i hope it helps you with your needs.

Still, I think you need to work more on your mapping. It's just not good enought.

You can try some of these tutorials.

Zhuge Liangs Mapping Tutorials

Falcon's Exterior Mapping Tutorials

That helped, thanks.

I'm glad it helped.

Also Zhuge Liang i use those Tutorials, maybe not as good i could though.
but can you tell me what you think is off about my mapping it would help alot.

Well Progress is painfully slow thanks to school and all that other stuff.(Like Lazyness lol)


Some new screen shots

Old Version of Dew Village.






Note: The Village is now Called Dew Village, and that the village will look different when i'm done with it.

Other Updates - Demo News [Hopefully at the end of november] More information at the bottom of the Main Post(Very Top)
Story has been updated for you won't feel overwelmed by the Information.
Characters have Last Names now, and some characters (Roy for example) has there Biography changed again.
Also in "Other Information" there is something on the Settings (Planet Elvira).


Also Sorry for double posting but i wanted people to i had updates.

Notes:
World Map still looks horrible, i'm working on the tileset still.
the last two areas of the demo need to be re-worked even though they aren't important.

The Link:

Spoiler for:

Yeah, i found an error in the game so i'm fixing it now

(Also at the bottom of the main post)

I'm guessing besides mapping i need some work on the Dialogue and Interface.
If you think so please tell me how and, or a better to put for my poor typing grammar.

Also this Demo is a Pratice Demo, so it might be around 10 - 12 minutes long depending on how hard it is for you to notice stuff, your exploration, and luck.

So, (Forgive me Triple Posting, but i think this was needed or you wouldn't guess i had a pratice demo out).
P.S.

This is suspended until Further notice after, i finish working on "Escon Dark Chapter I"
Until then, adios.
