Sup! The game I am workin' on is "The Ultimate Battle". My game is goin' to be extremly long, so be prepared. Best guess of when i put it
on charas...3-6 months. Here is my title screen. It's just a taste of what this game is about, but, it says enough.
-
The game does not sound bad.But please put at least a info about the game.Like whats the game about?And about the chars, ya know. :D
-
You think the title is enough???
What it says to me is it's going to be Final Fantasy meets the Real world, which I'm sure would be a succees [/sarcasm]
-
Hmm, you want to base our opinion on your game with THAT title screen?
Well lets see, first off, it looks like a final fantasy spoof, which doesn't really sound all that hot. A title like "the ultimate battle" doesn't really sound all too great either, theres nothing really special about it. The text on the screen is very basic, just white, no blending, no effects, very plain.
So, if all i see on your game is your title screen, I'm gonna think its a lame fan game with nothing really special and very bland and not really worth checking out.
I know that was harsh, but really, don't expect us to be amazed at a title screen, give us some info as well.
-
First, the title screen is just a rough version.
Second, tellin everybody this way cause i didn't know if nebody would
post back on it.
O.K.
There will be chars from the old ff's on there, ranging from ff4-fft.
Some you can play as, but most you can only talk to or fight.
The storyline is about the real world is basically being invaded by the world of ff. towns levels people and new levels. the main character is named Adam. he has no real powers or nethin' but he still tries to fight the monsters. it's really balanced at the beginning but it just looses balance because i still gotta fix it. lol. sum of the ff chars that are playable are, Cloud, Sephiroth, Sabin, Cecil and Golbez(i'm only to that point in my game). more will be there. the title is for a thinking purpose. if you have played past ff games before, who would you think would be the hardest monster you fought in any of them. the final boss i think is my toughest fight.
P.S. if sumone knows where i can find better ff sources or help me with a character generator, plz post back or pm me.
-
More like Final Fantasy Fanboy Worlds. >_>
-

You win. UR DA BESD. :Plight:

Gogo. Seriously. He was near impossible to beat in FF5.
-
if i can find the sets for him he will be on there.
-
why has everyone been downgrading me because of an idea?
i mean seriously it can't be as bad as you say it's gonna be.
haven't you ever seen a preview of a game and you thought it was gonna suck. but you play it and it turns out you do like it. all i'm sayin is don't judge it til you play it.
-
Man, I told you that UR da besd.
-
I'll tell you why.
This is a tough place for newbies, we're rough from the start. Not sure why, but we can't really change the way we are. I'm pretty sure most of us have already tried and failed. Also, it's just a plain bad idea. No thought or imagination was really put into it, and there's nothing to show for it so far. Also, most of us absolutely despise fan games, as they're either poorly executed, ridiculously boring, very unimaginative, rarely reach completion, or a combination of those things. Look around, particularly at some other threads about games people are already making, and you'll see the quality levels that we have set for our inner cabal here. And for higher success and approval ratings here, try having a completely original game idea instead of a fan game idea. It shows more imagination and creativity.
Prepare your flame-retardant suit, because whether or not the insults begin to fly, better safe than sorry, as I always say. ;)
Oh, gem, cut the sarcasm. It's gonna confound the hell out of the poor guy.
-
well thanx for the info but to tell you the truth...i don't give up.
the game will be complete, it won't be boring and i'm already deciding
on everything. all i was saying is that if you've tried to make one or you've played one. you didn't play mine so don't judge it negatively yet plz. when you play it then knock it if you don't like it, and tell me where i went wrong.
-
Sarcasm was only at like a 3 there.
Seriously. I would play this.
I was pushing it with DA BESD, yeah...
And allthough many carve fangames, Id play this.
Seriously...My sarcasm is not malevolent. Its playfull and cute.
Like a kitty.
-
Haha just make sure its of quality and you have a good story. Its what I did on my fan game and it didnt get flamed much. Also info on the game helps ^ ^.
-
It involves FFT. It HAS to be amazing.

When I'm in a restaurant, and I order my meal, and when it arrives it's clearly been pissed in, I can tell it's going to be a bad meal. I don't have to eat it to check.
Also, people on this forum always say "I'm definetely going to finish this game". If that were a promise that was kept to, we'd have a lot more games.
-
if sumone could help me find a battlechar for sum tactics characters.
the only character in the game is Gafgarion.
here is the resource it's only a monster one but if you need it it's here.
-
use the character sets to make battle character sets.
Honestly, come up with an original idea, instead of this obvious trash, man.
It's unimaginative, and seems like it would be boring.
-
ummmmmmmm......i don't know how to do nething when it comes to charas. like sumone posted before, i am a noob at charas. and i do understand what you my by unimaginative, but i'm just taking what i know and throwing it together. once i do this one i'll be able to start a
fresh game. this game is for me to get an understanding of rpg maker 2k3.
-
You just said yourself you're throwing it together.
Games are not meant to be thrown together!

Unless you're a good game maker. I threw one together in like a day, and people agreed that it was the most silly game they had ever played, while still being enjoyable.
"Why hello there, shady ninja-type man! What can I do for you?"
"Wait... I'm a ninja!?"
"I dunno! For all I care, you could be a car!"
I really think you should practice your game-making skill by making some games that... Well, try new things. Try new things in your games; storylines, code, anything. We're not too fond of first time games, but with time, you'll get better.
-
Wait, the real world is taken over by FInal Fantasy stuffs? FFTA anyone?
-
I thought that was a dream by the main character, or that they jumped into the world itself...
-
nononono. not a ffta wanna be. i mean the real world we live in now.
USA. Asia. Africa.
-
dako4584,
Would the real world be ignorant of FF? My first thought would be like something out of "Last Action Hero" or something for kids.
It would be awkward if people who were fans of FF recognized the invading critters. You'd have to explain how it would be possible that a game would be brought into reality, and I personally couldn't picture that not looking like something out of a Disney flick.
The FF aspect would lose all of its impact, because it would be reduced to a piece of fiction in the eyes of the characters and most importantly, the player.
You could create some otherworldy origins for FF, that the games were based on a parallel world, with the tales being visions written down by a demented Japanese prophet in a basement or something, to minimize that.

Same thing dude. Its FInal Fantasy takes over a real world. Our real world, a fictional real world, either way its a rehash.
-
guys look. this is my idea. maybe i should tell you about the idea of the game that comes before this one. FF:The Mix. that one basically you play through the old ff games and that will explain more how the ff world became the real world. i don't know how i came up with this. it just kinda popped into my head. neways a little more info. sum of the places will be on the game from the old ff's are, the floating continent(btw, if sumone knows where i can find where to make chipsets and/or find this chip set for me plz), mount koltz, figaro(i know, all from 6 so far), midgar, cosmo canyon, zanarkand, and more.
-
Wait a sec... You're mixing sprites from the "miniature" Final Fantasy like FF4, with RTP-styled sprites, and FFT sprites?
If so, I can assure you, your game is going to be the ugliest thing ever introduced to Charas. *Insert joke about Drace here*
-
I agree with Draggy too. There should be a well placed joke about Drace's looks in his post.
However, there isn't one. :guns:
-
The game actually sounds mediocre, not awful. Sounds a lot like a beginner's project to me, honestly. I think the idea of fangames is a bit stupid however and especially can't stand final fantasy fangames. I mean, there's 14 of em, you don't need a hundred more. As for the "X game meats real world concept," well, it wouldn't work. It's been tried with other, better games, books, movies etc. and failed just about every time. Try something original, like a Forgotten Realms fangame (proud creator of one), or something unique. The world is done with Final Fantasy fangames. Why aren't you?
-
O.K. look. come on people. out of like 30 posts the has only been one good one. i mean seriously, lighten up people. ya'll think too one dimensional. i mean come on, your judgin it before it even comes out.
just because you played one doesn't mean that mine will be the same way. take a break and post sumthin besides negative comments for a while i mean really.
P.S. to tell you the truth, i know in my mind the game will be a sucess.
ya sure it's not exactly original, but the storyline, the new chars, and sum new skills are. let me ask you a q? in any ff have you ever heard of these three following classes, Demon Knight, Angel Knight and Staff
Knight. and that is just for starters. and i have put alot of thought into this game. i started thinkin about it in oct of last year.
-
I'm not saying its a bad idea, just a tired one. I've seen this concept tried before on another RPG maker site, and it failed horribly. Of course, it may just be my dislike of FF games after 1 and 3, but still. Some originality in the concept wouldn't hurt.
EDIT: Wow, the I just looked at the title again and it made me want to start singing it to the tune of Ultimate Showdown....

Tell me if you think this will be a great game:
Megaman has been teleported to the water-planet of "Got Socks?", except "Got Socks" is actually the real universe and earth just plains sucks because it really doesn't exsist. On the planet, a train going 57 miles per hour is heading north carrying nine passengers. Two get off on the first stop, three get on at the next stop after. Get the hidden crystals by stopping the train. Stop the train by achieving the secret power level and using the Supersword. Find X.
-
Best. Game. Evar. Well, not quite, I think Hello Kitty Roller Rescue is the best, but this comes pretty close.
[/sarcasm]
-
you see i'm not like everybody else, i won't judge it till i play it. and my mind is always wide open when it comes to rpg games. if you did poorly i'll tell you, "yea, it's sucked.". if you did good in my mind i'll tell you good job.
-
Did I mention that there is a plot twist where you learn that Megaman(SPOILER ALERT!!!!) is actually a mexican named: Es Oh Si Que Es
If you know spanish, then this will BLOW YOUR MIND.
-
i told you be4 i don't judge, post the game when finished, i'll play it and then i'll tell you what i think.
-
Is oh yes who is?
IDK, I never pay attention in spanish...

No... think about how Es Oh Si Que Es is pronounced.

SOCKS
-
I get something that sounds almost like ZKX......
More like "It's, oh, ZKX"
-
ok now let's try it this way. WILL SUMONE HELP ME WITH THE CHAR GENERATOR AND/OR FINDING RESOURCES????????????
-
No need for caps lock, it just makes you look like a noob. And I posted this in the other topic, why not try the resources here? It's hard to help someone who refuses to listen.
-
i have been lookin through them. i can't find nethin i like. and i don't know **** about the chara generator.
-
Well, why not try using a template and making them yourself? It's not that difficult and I'm sure if you ask someone will help. or you could try posting a request, or looking on google... the list goes on.

Haha! MENTION'D!
-
I'm almost amazed you haven't posted on this thread too much, ZKX. It's almost .... not funny.
-
well thank you for the help. i appreciate it. and i don't really have the patience to paint a new sprite using a template. here is what i have so far for my Demon Knight. tell me what you think.
-
wrong pic. and i have posted a request in the request part. no one has awnsered me yet.
-

Well, as Moose would say, "You're representing Charas now. Stop being such a ****."

Nah, I don't mean like flaming, but I need a good laugh at 1 AM and so far only ZKX is ever online to provide said laugh.
