Freedom/Morrowind 2D, A game based around the elder scrolls series!

First of all, sorry for posting here, but it would not let me post in the projects forum.


DEMO NOW AVALIABLE!

This is my secret game i've been working on in VX for the past few weeks. Its Named Freedom as its proper name but it may also be referred to as morrowind 2D beause of the fact it is based in the morrowind world and has many features related to that. The game will come with a guide containing vital detail to playing the game and the things you can do, think of it as a 'latest news' Readme thing.

Team:
Just me at the moment.

Intro:
When starting off things are pretty simple, you are asked your name and told the ship you are sailing on was in a storm, a guard asks you to go with him for your release. You are apparantly a prisoner. For what, you do not know.

After you leave the ship, you are asked for your origin. Now this will determine your stats and your special skill. They are as follows.

Humans-Average with every weapon, weak vs all magic except holy. Special ability-Leg sweep-Stuns nearby enemies.

Orcs:Best with blunt weapons, weak vs all magic. Special ability-Enraged-Attack an enemy twice in one turn.

Elves:Best with bows and swords, average at the rest, best at wind water earth and holy magic. Special ability-Sacred shot-An enchanted bow strike.

Dwarves:Best with axes weak with everything else except fire magic, and they have a high defence. Special ability- Fire- Burns an enemy.

Guide for progress: There is no way to make progress in the means of the storyline in the game...BECAUSE you are basically a freelancer, so you can choose from multiple storylines that you wish to follow!

Characters: The game has no main characters, and your character can be whoever you want him to be.
Also any character in the world can be attacked, robbed and murdered.

Murder: Any townsperson that you kill in the game will be gone forever. A gravestone will appear for them in the local graveyard, which can be read for the town's comment about them. Also the character's house will become buyable!

Pets: [not yet added] Your character will be able to choose from a multitude of pets that can be bought from a local shop, these pets will require food and drink like the player. They can also help you in fights, their abilities will often depend on their type (wolf, rat etc) or their level.

Law: Yes unfortunately there are at least some laws in the world. Many are just punishable by fine, but if you cannot pay the fine then you go to jail!

Spoiler for Screenshots:

The demo is now avaliable Here There is a few bugs so i included my e-mail adress in the guide, just tell me the problem and i wll try to sort it,

Judging from the screenshots, I'd say you need to work on your mapping.
Good luck with the project, orcywoo6. 

Game idea sounds awesome. When you finish it i'd love to play it. But I agree with Leventhan. Mapping needs a little work, but hey, so does mine. If you want my opinion though. Get farther along in game development, then go back and add detail to the mapping. But all in all, looks great. Going to try the demo now.


Edit*

Ran into a problem trying to play the game. The link to download the demo doesn't work. Maybe it's just me?

We are talking to a genuis here. You deserve a cookie for this kind of development. Keep working on those bugs and fix it. Looking forward to playing it.

yeah i does sound amazing but ur mapping does need work

cant wait to play full version

Come up with your own ideas.

Anyone remember Maia's game Maia?
It was also based on Morrowind.

Something I can say is that all RMs have great potential for character customiziness such as selectable race and class and stuff, but maybe I just see too much of that and get kind of tired of seeing a new game with all the commonness of all-around human, axe-fighter dwarf, and so on.

I once made a game based on Fable and it was a lot like this, bad mapping and all. heh.

As I said though, this has potential, good job and good luck.
