Heres some info
PLOT
_____
A great evil threatens the world. Man has thought of trying to stop it and has failed. The people of the world could do nothing but follow his commands as he ruled the world with an iron fist. The evil was mysterious and unknown to all for it did not reveal itself to anyone. Not even it's evil army that seemed limitless, knew thier leader. Finally, A Few Fighters tried to stop the evil and haven't returned from thier journey. Many suspect they have been killed or thrown in the evil's dungeon. So no one else has tried to stop the evil's reign. After years of suffering, Destin Eirin set out on a quest to stop the evil's reign.
HISTORY
______
The great evil first infultrated the world the year 1200. It has been around for centuries. It and it's army has been around and haven't died. The evil may be ages old as his army but not many think so. "Whatever this thing is, it is obviously not human and probably doesen't age." Says a man. As the years went on, Destin Eirin, a man who was fed up of suffering decided to set out on a quest some day to destroy the evil in the y
ear of 1784. Since his announcement he has been preparing for the day he would leave and bring salvation apon the world. The evil also makes an announcement, explaining why it is doing what it's doing. "I'm causing your planet misery because it brings me joy, I will get a laugh out of this man, Destin, I will enjoy causing his suffering." Destin would leave in five days. He is on this quest for one reason, the reward.
DESTIN
______
Destin is a hot tempered man. He is cruel most times. He has a mysterious jewel given to him in his childhood. His parents gave it to him and he treasures it because of that. His paren'ts are in good health. He wears an orange cotton shirt and light brown leatherish pants. He has smooth purple hair and brown shoes. He has quite a bit of money among his poor town.. He tends to be lazy. But when he sets his mind to something he'll finish it, most times.
I would post screens but I haven't gotten someone to make me/get me chipsets.
-
Cliché hero and villain. The villain is immortal and untouchable but in the end, Destin's pendant will probably be the key to stop the reign of whatever evil beings has been ruling their world with an iron fist.
Hero, poor, pendant and dead parents. I think I saw that on the huge cliché list. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind. The only thing I don't like is the cliché villain...since I tend to prefer the villain over the hero.
-
The Hero should be rich, his parents should be alive, and in the end he should find out that his Father is actually the leader of this evil force, and the hero is faced with the decision to continue his father's evil legacy or kill him once and for all.
-
The villian isnt "immortal" or untouchable. But he is powerful of course. And The pendant doesn't destroy the villian it doesen't do ANYTHING like that. It allows Destin to Fuse equipment. He learns this a little after the first boss. Oh 'finding your father is the villian' isn't original. I've seen it too much.
-
'Luke, I am your father' -- Just by that, it is uber cliché, I mean, UBER.
So the pendant will be used to fuse equipements. Interesting.
-
What about if the Hero's Brother was also his father? Is THAT TOO CLICHE FOR YOU?
-
Then who is the guy that kisses you and packs your lunch everyday?
-
I have an idea, let's say that your hero was one of the fighters that set out in the start, and he is the only, or one of the only survivors. Say, in the battle with him, you found a weak point but never got to exploited it, so your hero goes back home, recruits some cliche characters, and kicks some evil butt!
-
I'm sticking to the plot at hand, as for now expect screens soon for now. If anyones intrested in helping me code stuff(CBS CMS ect.) That would help ALOT.
-
"What about if the Hero's Brother was also his father? Is THAT TOO CLICHE FOR YOU? "
You're sick for even putting that in here.
-
What I would think about Pythis, it would help, is think about what most of the game is going to be about. I have spent weeks brainstorming for Kingdom of Chaos, and people on Charas, my friends, know that my game won't be cliche. So, once you get some screenshots, it will get some people interested, and its reputation will start to grow, so just ignore what people say when they say it is cliche. I got that a lot when I started with KOC, so, I improvised.
Just keep us up to date, and it'll do fine. ;)
PS. Don't change anything in your game if you don't want to, its your game. I never changed anything in mine.
-
And speaking of cliche, make sure to visit my topic PACT to tell me if you think my game is cliche or not :)
-
thanks for the support. lonewolf is making the chipsets for me so I'll wait until he's ready to make one and I'll take a few screens of the area.(This will be the intro.
-
Glad to see everything is doing fine. Be sure to post those screenshots because I'm interested ;)

How the hell is that POSSIBLE.
1 He is the SAME age as you.
2 "Brother was also his father" ... ... ......So Im assuming he gave birth to himself right?
Okay heres how it looks
Dad had you and your brother. froze you when you were born and when your brother grew of age to be your father, He adopted you then he got frozen. He unfroze you you grew to the same age as brother and there, your brothers your father.
-
Brother's aren't the same age. He could be about 16 years older than him.
The hero is basically the son of the Brother + the Mother.
Of course, the Hero wouldn't know he is his brother, but he would hear stories of his "lost" brother. The Hero may also wonder sometimes why his mother is much older than his father.

Nah Everyone whos read this form will know It will be in the game so no sorry. Anyway I redid the game a little,

Dont expect this to be finished, I quit the project. I mean whats the point I can't make a game. So this is discontinued until I can find some good help.
-
So, you're quitting because you need help?
I'll help you if you'd like.
-
more than that, I cant make maps I cant make monsters I cant make characters or a good plot the whole game would've come out horrible.
EDIT: By the way if you wanna help what exactly can you do. I need help with the items stated above and scripting and getting resources and all sorts of stuff.
-
Ill continue on this project now. Heres a demo of the battle system. Enter to attack Shift to use Rock Blast.(Magic attack) http://us.f2.yahoofs.com/bc/4305b135_a662/bc/My+Documents/Test.zip?bfQXbBDBnwI6tpNo
EDIT: Dont attack dead enemies they come back alive and cant be killed. Just fixed it so that if you attack with magic after hitting it still dies.
-
Downoload the battle system here http://rapidshare.de/files/4152507/Dark_Legends.zip.html
-
It's buggy...and laggy...but it's a nice first try.
-
Whata re some bugs? Use enter to attack and shift to use magic.
-
ok. Wildguy is helping me with the battle system. To enhance it I planon using a CMS. Well expect screens soon.
-
Heres my first screen
