The last few months I've gotten a lot of private messages asking me about Legend of Lea and where they can find the download for it. They have all gotten the same answer, to wait for the re-make that are soon to be released. And now we find our self one-and-a-half-month before the release.
For me it feels amazing that I soon finally will be able to show you everything I've kept secret for a while now.
As you read this right now my Super-cool buddy Dragonblaze might be programming Legend of Lea's original battle system, I will soon announce it's features. And I'm sure both DB and I can say it will be amazing.
The new storyline
Skye and Tyze are quite well-known in thier home village Vile. Well-known as the two nice guys who would do anything to help people out in anyway. But once the full moon shows itself, they are two skilled masked thiefs of their village. Stealing has always been there work and that's what they live on.
Skilled as they are they have never get caught.
One day they hear from the priest of the village that a healing arts wizard has come to the village with a sick girl they are the cure in the temple near by the village.
After a long argue about it Tyze and Skye decides to ambush them at the temple, because they know that wizards are always rich people.
This is a beginning of a long journey that will change themselfs forever.
Obviously it still has the old basic storyline as well but this is how the game begins.
Before telling you about the up coming I would like to announce everyone who's been helping me this far and special thank them (everyone except me that is :P). If I have forgotten someone please tell me and if so I am really sorry.
The crew
Robotam - Story creator, Map maker and Event Creator
Dragonblaze - Battle system creator
Ghostclown - Character and System graphics creator
Coasterkrazy - Official Midi creator
Leon_1990 - Battle animation maker
Kijuki_Magazaki - Official character sprites creator
Ace of Spades- Official trailer creator
Graphics I've used from random people
Orochiweapon - Battle animation creator
Mac and Blue/Refmap - Graphics creator
The Features
Custom Battle System
Legend of Lea's CBS is very unique because of it's combine system. The combining system allows you to perform a technique by pressing a special code. All codes are based on the numbers 1-9.
In order to perform the technique you must press a 4-numbered code, for an example "1-253". The first number you press is separated from the other three; it is because the first number symbolizes the element you wish to use.
The elements are:
1. Tzel/Fire
2. Misu/Water
3. Hera/Wind
4. Goro/Earth
5. Disu/Ice
6. Raih/Lightning
7. Lyor/Holy
8. Sear/ Shadow
9. Nein/Healing arts
The other three symbolizes the seal of your technique. All techniques in this game has been sealed and to release their seals you have to shout a combination of three holy animals (A little like hand seals if you have watched Naruto), there are 9 holy animals in total.
They are:
1. Eagle
2. Serpent
3. Goat
4. Lion
5. Fish
6. Scorpion
7. Panther
8. Horse
9. Dragon
When pressing a correct tech code you will successfully perform your technique.
How are you supposed to know the codes you ask? You are able to find tech codes all around the world while playing, some are hidden some you get from bosses and such.
Also I forgot to tell you that each element has it's own meter, fire as the fire meter and water has the water meter and.. yeah you get it. When for an example the fire meter is empty you can no longer perform fire techniques. To fill your meters you must find the element crystal that symbolizes the meter you've spent in the field (outside battles). You are able to see which symbolizes which through the colour, red symbolizes fire and blue symbolizes water and.. yes, hopefully you get that too.
What do you think, pretty complicated, eh? Legend of Lea's own guide person will explain this clearly so you easy will understand.
But wait.. that's not all.
The CBS has another feature! The Attack system.
When you wish to attack your foe physically you will have three options where you wish to attack him. Head, Body or Feet. Different foes are weak at different places. And sometimes on bosses you must attack a particular place to be able to damage the boss through then attacking another spot. Might be hard to understand, yes.
The legendary LoL puzzles.
Yes, they are still there. The amazing puzzles you ran into in the previous demos.
A fantastic world to explore
The world is huge and amazing, it allows you to go back to any previous places you've been to and do new side quests. And all maps are made so much better than in the previous demos.
Will this game be exactly as the previous with just new features and better map making?
Oh, no! Don't misunderstand it, just because it is a re-make it doesn't mean it's a direct re-make. This almost like a new game with a much more epic storyline than ever. It has the old bases and so much more.
Up coming
A collection of screenshots from the CBS and other cool places of the game.

You could make it so if they put in a wrong code every once in a while the party would get blown up in some horrible magical accident. It wouldn't be fun to completely stop people from experimenting.

Yes, I agree. But it may also be annoying since it's suppose to be hard to perform a skill. Imagine the situation if you have only 2 HP and the boss you're fighting has very low health too. And then you know he will die when you cast the technique on him and you fail performing it and die because of "failing-skill-damage".

Unless you didn't view it in full size I believe I know what you dislike about it. And if it is what I think it is I can easily change it.
Thanks everyone. :)

But anyway, I'm pretty confident I'll be done in under a week, I'm determaned to get this done before school starts :)
Heres my little report on what I have so far :) I have 113 common events (many with more than 100 lines). About 300 variables, 50 switches, and only 1 on map event :) Well 7 if you include the place holders for the heros and monsters.
Attack system - Complete
Skill system - 50% complete
Item System - 80% complete
HP Desplay - complete
TP desplay 30% complete
Damage desplay - 90%
Monster AI - complete

Hahah, indeed. You should have seen my face when I saw the first screenshots of it. :P
Thank you.
So Dragonblaze, only a week you say? Wow, then it's only a week left till I play this masterpiece battle system. Can't wait!
And also, I was going to send you some info I remember, I'll do that later today by PM as usual.

I don't have much else to say.
I'm going to start working on the game for real this weekend, there's still some graphics I need but I can make it without them for a little while. So while Dragonblaze is working on the CBS the comming months I'll be trying to finish everything else. And hopefully when the CBS is complete as will everything else.
Expect a lot of screenshots on the way.

Yeah, that's the truth. I'd love to have everyone do all the difficult stuff for me and just make maps. Maps are like.... the bomb to make. Animations= Pains in neck, unless you get the 'premade' ones where all you gotta do is add one to the number every 1 or 2 screens and walla, you've got a spell.
So yeah.... Keep up the good work team. It's sounding a little bit much like Robbie is taking all the credit from you, or I should say everyone is giving it to him. Just saying.... yeah, you guys all do alot of work, especially you DB, and you're all doing great.
Post by: Robotam on October 07, 2005, 09:03:54 AM
I feel that way all the time, and obviously it's their game as well.
But as the leader I cannot do much else than I am already doing, if that's taking their credit then please tell me how else I should lead the team because I am actually doing my best.
But Meiscool, don't missunderstand.. I'm not just doing maps.
Believe it or not but I am programmer, graphics creator, map maker, story writer and the one who makes the whole game (except for CBS and battle anims). And I come up with the most ideas as well.
Leading a team ain't easy and it might be true that I am toast without them but I they're my friends and I'm not their dictator.
They work for because apparently they want to, if they want to quit they can do it anytime.
If anyone feels bad in my team then please tell me.
I'm sorry if I'm taking everyones credit but I am doing my best.

Glad to hear it coming along great, coaster. Wishes best luck to you.
And Meiscool, if I look at the CBS's programming I feel dizzy.
I take care of every other kinds of programming, events and puzzles. Ah well, being given leader critism might be needed because this is quite an issue for me, I feel a little guilty. -_-'
And I'll add you to the credits at the first page now, coasterkrazy.
