Title: My RPG project.
Post by: Nickwii2112 on May 26, 2008, 03:02:21 PM
Okay, so I recorded a video of the beggining of my game called "A way home"

I used some sprites from the "Complete Resources" page so I credit whoevers sprites I took. Some of music I used is from random resouces from google (yay, google!!)

Note:You may have to turn up yout volume because I was forced to record through my microphone (hypercam sucks >.<)

Well, sorry. But I'm gonna be completely honest with you.

Your maps needs tons of work, they are really empty and it seems like you just places some things without taking account to details and such.
To be even more honest. I wouldn't play that, I'd get to annoyed at the look of it. Please read Meiscool's tutorial on map-making. It'll do you good.

And try to palce all the text in the same message box, it'll be annoying if you have to press the action key in a conversation just to read the last two word of the sentence.

I can't think of anything more than that, try to make the town look more like a town and make that world map a bit more world-ish; a square with two towns next to each other and a patch of forest needs a lot of work.

But now, as I'm done with the bad part.

It's great to see that you used battlechars from the same series. It makes it more pleasant to the eyes. Just try to find a better System to match it and it'll be awesome.

Just open the project again and use the things you've learned to make your
game even betterī.

Remember: Practise makes perfect.
