Legionwood - 15+ Hours of Gameplay!

Game Overview
Legionwood is a console style RPG made using RPG Maker VX. Legionwood is my attempt at creating a nostalgic and familiar RPG experience reminiscent of the classics of the early 90's such as Breath Of Fire and Chrono Trigger.
Legionwood features a massive world filled with adventures and side quests, and is expected to contain over 20 hours of gameplay and four huge story driven chapters.
While it isn't revolutionary and contains gameplay that is for the most part bog standard RPG fare, Legionwood is designed to be that way; familiar and fun for RPG fans looking for a casual game to play.

Storyline
The world of Legionwood. Once upon a time, it was prosperous and full of technological wonders. About three thousand years ago, a mysterious phenomena demolished most of mankind's cities, and as a species, they had to start again. This much, archaeologists and scholars know from the ancient ruins of technological cities and fortresses dotted throughout the most barren parts of Legionwood's surface.
After at least two millennia had passed, mankind had begun to re-establish itself as the planet's dominant species. Major inventions were being rediscovered, and technological development had finally reached a medieval period. It was at this time when everything began to go wrong. Legionwood has always had war, but suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere began a furious and unpredictable world war that raged for years and devastated cities and nations worldwide. This terrible conflict, known as the Great War, ended as suddenly as it began, with no mention of its cause or conclusion to the public, and mankind began to pick up the pieces.

Now, one thousand years have passed since the Great War came to an end. Since that terrible time, makeshift peace treaties have ensured there have been only minor conflicts over the last centuries, but once again technology is on the rise, and half truths and legends about the Great War and its origins are prevalent in popular culture.
Each country, empire and kingdom fears its neighbours, and only reluctantly are peace ties held in place. In a last ditched effort to try and maintain some sort of peace between the rival kingdoms of Charn and Trevelle, the king of Charn has decided to hold a celebration and
festival to honor his new daughter's birth. Everybody in attendance is expecting a good time, but a key figure linked to Legionwood's dark past of conflict and death has been biding his time, and has decided that now is the perfect time to stage a new Great War and political upheaval. Simply looking for a way to wind down after months of hard work, Lann and his sister Liara come to enjoy the festivities, but soon they will both be pulled unexpectedly into an epic saga which may just have a battle to decide the world's fate waiting in its wings.

Game Features
- A character driven story full of twists, turns and red herrings, and an intended gameplay time of around 20 hours.
- 6 playable characters, each one with a distinct personality, which you can mold into your own custom character classes to suit your combat style.
- Turn based combat with an emphasis on tough opponents and using skills, rather than mashing "attack" over and over. Think, don't button mash!
- A custom soundtrack, composed entirely of non comercial game music, some exclusive to Legionwood.
- Collect, raise and summon 5 elemental spirits to aid you in battle! Summon level up, learn skills and fight just like your party members!
- Innovative Ability Point system by KGC allows you to choose which bonuses you gain in level ups, so you're free to decide which role your characters fill in your battle plan.

Hi everyone!

Just posting to let you know that latest version of Legionwood (containing the new third chapter, Death and Dealings) is well on it's way and should be expected some time in September.

Here are some things you can expect from it:

> Rewritten dialogue and skippable cutscenes
> Graphical and audio overhaul
> Over 2 hours of new content including side quests
> Some answers to the questions from earlier chapters, and the final killing of Merces!
> Two summonable monsters, which act as fifth party members in battle

You of course will be able to use your chapter 2 save file to continue, but you won't be able to summon as the script only works with new games, so it's reccomended you start off anew and play the completed Upperthorne Sewer dungeon you missed out on last time!

Google "Clickteam Install Creator", it's a freeware program which makes installers. Adds tons of profesionality to the game, wouldn't you say?

Hi everyone! I've decided to give you guys the latest news about what's happening with the next version of Legionwood.

The next version of Legionwood contains the all new third chapter called Death and Dealings, bringing the total gameplay time to somewhere around 8 hours. The first two chapters have also undergone some minor changes; the Upperthorne Sewer dungeon in Chapter One is now completable, and certain items and skills have been changed or re-balanced.

I've also completely overhauled the game's soundtrack; it is now comprised entirely of custom music and no game rips, 60% of it exclusive to Legionwood also. Some minor graphical changes have also taken place, and because of this, I have to unfortunately announce that save file compatibility with the last version has been removed. Many scripts have been changed which would prevent this. However, now with the script problems fixed, I can ensure save file compatibility for the next version to the next.

The expected release date for the new version is within the month of September (around the 20th) and the new release will come as a 60MB file, containing all three current chapters of the game.

Here, finally, are some features you can expect in the new chapter:

> You will add Thyrra and Zanthus, two new characters, to your team.
> You will discover the identity of the eponymous Castoth and the secret of the Sword of Gaia.
> You will discover the secrets of Ark's past.
> Over 2 hours of new areas, quests and dungeons await you, including some that deal with the far past of Legionwood's civilization.
> You will be able to use the new summoning system and take to the seas of Legionwood in your ship to find 2 summonable creatures.

It gets better as well. The new version is expected very soon, and it blows this current one out of the water.

Attention!

The beta testers I used at school seem to have not informed me of a few audio errors which occur in the mid areas of the game. As a result, I've released a new 800kb self applying patch to fix these. This patch will also perform the same operations as the last one.

If you're downloading the game from scratch, please get this latest patch. Unfortunately the patch will not work for those who've already used the first patch I posted yesterday. You can still fix these problems without redownloading however, by following these steps:

1. Go into Legionwood 3.1/Audio/BGM folder.
2. Copy "jbsm024" and rename it to "Crysta".
3. Copy "jbsm010" and "jbsm026" and rename them to "06a-Battle-Field" and "Terranigma - Sad Theme" respectively.

Update!

To circumvent all of the patching that has to be done, I've uploaded a new version of the game with all of the problems fixed and at a smaller size too (58MB).

To move your save files over, do this:

Copy and paste the Quest*.rvdata and Quest*.bmp into the new directory, or simply reinstall over the old game's directory.

Update:

I discovered the problem! My RPG Maker VX was for some reason failing to save changes to my game (no doubt since it's in Program Files and my Vista changed security settings lately) so every time I thought I was fixing a problem pointed out by my beta testers, I really wasn't! I reinstalled RMVX, reset the security settings and released a new patch which fixes the few problems left in the game's final areas. Just apply it to the latest version of the game. (Either the raw download or one that's already had patches 1 and 2 applied).

I am sorry for this very much. Damn Vista...
