Title: Chronicle I
Post by: jordyXile on December 10, 2005, 03:45:21 PM
Chronicle I
My first game that is in the early stages of development. I'll update regularly and I'll reveal more of the plot.

 Intro
The legendary rebel hero Resch defeated many of the Empire soldiers during his lifetime. He came to a sudden end of his life when he was cornered by the Empire and he was cast into a pool of lava.

Almost two thousand years later the Empire continue to control the humans of the world. A select few of the loyal breed of humans are working for the Empire willingly. Since Resch there was never a rebellion, just a few lone rebels.

Our hero's story begins when he wakes up in bed in the village of Valencia. The day is just as boring as all the others until...

To be continued...

Your town insides need alot of work, and your town outsides are good but lacking events. I just wrote a TUT that could help you, check it out here:

The simple Rebellion VS. Empire baseplot is very cliche. I highly suggest revising.

Yes but I have a few plot twists already planned that changes everything but I won't say anything about that just yet it would take away the best part of the game.
Title: New Pub

I changed the Valencia Pub after I read Meiscool's tutorial about maps. It's smaller but I think it looks better.

Little better, though it lacks... Doors. It lacks any doors. The layout is also rather basic.

Yeah, some of it's just temperary (spelling?) it's just to find out if it's an improvement and I'll work at it from there.

well... it looks better now, but the rooms are to crowded, and the pub part where the tables are at are to spaced.
