Ok, this is my game. First of all the title has nothing to with the animal "seal" you'll see why I call it the omega seal. Ok, when you start the game it basically tells the plot of the story. That's what I'm going to put down right now. 6 million years ago a sorcerer who was exiled from society tried to merge together five elemental forces of the earth: Wind, Fire, Ice, Earth and Lightning. He succeeded in merging them together into a single force that defied the laws of mother nature. By doing this he had the ability to create storms, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and anything else that included those five elemental forces. When the merging process was completed he converged them all into one piece of rock that he called "Vengence." He traveled back to the city in which exiled him and warned them of what he has created. Nobody believed him, so he gave them a small demonstration. He conjured up a storm that completely desimated the city as well as those who lived there. The world soon knew the power of "Vengence." But even though it had great power, it didn't have enough to defeat the Great Priests of Macidonia(Name of Continent). The sorcerer was defeated and the elemental piece of rock known as "Vengence" was sealed away. Since the stone consisted of great power that could have brought about the "end of the world", but was sealed away, it later became known as the Omega Seal... (For those of you who don't know what omega means it means the end)
Well, this is just what it says right when you start the game. I guess you can say my game has multiple introductions. First it has this, then it says "10 thousand years later" and has another introduction, but I won't say what this one's about, I don't want to give away the whole intro of the game, but if you want to know more than I might say.... And then finally after that introduction it says "Now" (present day in my game not in the real world) and you start the game as the main hero. I'll have names and bios later, I'm kinda still working on some people. Well ok, tell me what you think! (takes big gasp of air)

Ok, thanks. BTW: Is anybody going to "opinionize" my game? I need input!
-
It sounds pretty good.
It reminds me of a game I was going to make, but decided not to: The Elementals.
It was about four people with the power of the elements, but unaware of what would happen if the four elements were united.
-
It appears that your game is not humor-related. But, perhaps one of the heroes thinks that the Omega Seal is an animal, and he gets all embarrased when he finds out what it really is.
-
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, That would be great!
Story is quite interesting.
-
lol! That would be funny, but my game isn't really humorous... welll... unless you consider this humorous:
Here's another character:
Fred (name is temporary, but I think I might use it)
Age: In human years: 13, in slime years: who knows?
Origin: A mountain, a cliff, a forest, I'm not sure yet
Gender: Male
Bio: The average "first bad guy" in a lot of games, but in my game he likes to have a say in things. Quote from my game: Ace: Hey look it' s a piece of crap that moves! Travis: Hmm... this could be good practice before we get to the castle. Ace: No, we need to find something better to fight, like a wolf or something. Travis: So, lets just have a little fun with this thing first. Ace: Sure why not. (starts battle with slime) (but a message pops up before you start fighting) Slime: Hey, hey wait a second. Don't I have a say in this? (battle ends and goes back to before battle) Ace: Holy crap that thing can talk? Slime: Yeah, I can, as well as all my other brothers and sisters. But when someone like you came in there presence, they were too scared to speak up. Travis: Just think of all those innocent slimes that were killed in all of those random encounters. Ace: What are you talking about Travis?! Travis: Huh? Oh, sorry, I kinda dozed off for a moment. Ace: I'll say. Well, I guess we won't kill you then. Travis: Oh yeah, how come you are gold? Most slimes I see are green. Slime: Well first of all call me Fred. Secondly, I don't know why I'm gold, that's like me asking you why are you white? But anyway, I overheard you talking about going to the Macidonian Castle. I'm pretty sure that you are not familiar with how to get there, so if you want, I can help you. Ace: Really, you know how to get to the castle! Great! That'll save us a lot of time. Travis: But why would you want to help us. We were about to kill you. Fred: Yeah, but you didn't, that's all that matters to me. Besides, I'm getting board of just walking around in random directions, I need something to do. So, mind if I join ya? (shows choice, if you let him he'll tell you where to go and stuff, if you don't, well then you're on your own.
Yeah, it'll go something like that. But what I'm trying to point out is that in my game a slime named Fred joins your party. Here's another Bio.
Travis:
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Origin: Same place as Ace, the small town of Shurmer.
Bio: Ace's best friend. Him and Ace want to become knights for the royal army of Macidonia, but something unexpected happens.
BTW: Warxe, what do you actually think of the game?
-
Ok, here's a little more on the story. When you get to the castle, something unexpected has happened. You originally go there for training sessions for becoming a soldier, but something bad has happened. I'm not going to say what though because I don't want to spoil the beginning. This means that the training sessions have been canceled, however the king of Macidonia gives you, including the rest of the people who wanted to be soldiers, a task. If one of them succeeds in this task then they have proven themselves worthy to be a knight of the royal army. Most of the people say forget it and leave, but you and another person accept the task. The one other person leaves immediately, but you stay because the king wants to talk to you. He talks to you about stuff and then you leave. Before you exit the room, one of the king's high knights enters and asks if he can go with you. (I'm not going to tell you why) After a small conversation the choice is up to you. Another Bio:
No name yet:
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Origin: I'm not totally sure yet
Bio: One of the king's high knights. Strong, skilled, brave, and in love (changed to point out that he is not gay)... *hint, hint*
-
till sounds interesting, is the high high knight gay though, because it says affectionate, and HE is a MALE.
-
lol! NO, no. He's not gay. Sorry I might have put that word for a wrong definition. What I'm saying is he is in love! And it has something to with the "unexpected" event. Oh yeah and this will probably spoil it, but here's more of the story. First I'll backtrack. After the first intro it says 10,000 years later. It shows a scene inside of a cave with a mage, a sorcerer, and some hooded people. They talk about the cave being the place where the priests sealed "Vengence" away. Then the talk about unsealing it, but also giving it more power. They need to offer a heart in which is pure and a heart that which is evil. It shows a hooded man walk in holding a woman. A couple things happen and then the woman is killed. Screen fades out before the woman is killed and a couple seconds after, a hooded cultists (that's what I'm calling the hooded men now) asks how they are going to get the "evil" heart. The mage and the sorcerer tell him that he has just blatently killed an innocent woman and you would have to be pretty evil to do something like that. He is sacrificed and then the mage and the sorcerer perform the ritual. Something goes wrong and the cave is flooded with lava killing the mage, sorcerer, and everyone else in it. After that it says "Now." Now I will go further into the story. This is what happens after the high knight joins you.(whether he does or not) You're leaving when a guard reports that a prisoner is escaping. He is caught and you stick around for some information. It seems that the prisoner knows of the "unexpected" event and in fact was a part of it. But he knows of what will become of the world if the event succeeds.... Yeah, it's probably something like that. Note that I said that ritual thing happened 10,000 years after the first intro. So what happens on the second intro happens before the "unexpected" event. In fact this is kind of confusing even me. I'm going to change it so that after the second intro it says 3,000 years later "Now" Yea that makes it a little more understandable now. I'll also change 6 million years ago to 20,000 years ago. 6 million is a long long long time ago. Too long, I think. Ok, so tell me what you think!
-
Sorry about this, but I don't know how to actually capture the screen on the game. Do I need to have some kind of program to do this or something. I really want to post screen shots, but I don't know how!
-
Press the button that says "Print Screen", then go into a image editing program and choose Paste
-
Oh, ok. Thanks! This is my first game and I didn't know how to that, thanks! BTW: What do think of the game?
-
RIGHT NEXT TO F12!!!
TO THE RIGHT OF F12!!!!
YES THAT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Er... If you wanted to save bandwidth, you could upload them on an image hosting site (such as Photobucket (http://photobucket.com)) and put them in your post as images.
-
Ok, then here are the screens. Tell me what you think. Not just the screens, but the game itself. I'm still like in the beginning of the game so if I need to change something I will. So, give me your opinions!
-
It looks awesome! I give it a thumbs up!
-
Hehe, thanks. Here's another screen shot!
-

Ok, people I'm adding more to the intro. Instead of having it just show words in the beginning of the creating of the Omega Seal and Stuff, I'm actually going to show the event happen and go a little more into detail of why it happened. So here's how it goes: It starts off in a room with 2 people. One of them looks very "king" like and the other looks like a priest. And that's because one of them is a king (or lord) and one of them is a priest. lol. It shows a couple of messages that are about this priest having "great ideas" that will help the kingdom greatly. The king agrees to what he has in mind and the screen fades out. It says 3 years later and then fades in to the same room they were in before accept this time it has messages of the king yelling at the priest. He says that the ideas are actually hurting the kingdom and is ruining his leadership. He assumes that this was all a big scheme of the priest's so that he can get the throne. Because of the kingdom being hurt so bad, the king is to blame. He was almost assasinated several times because the people are claiming they have "bad leadership." The king is putting the blame on the priest and because of his assumption of the priest's plot to take the throne, the king sees the priest as a threat and exiles him out of the city. The city is in the desert (kinda like an egyptian civilization) so the priest has to wander the desert to find shelter. I am going to show small scenes of that by the way. He finally takes shelter in a small cave and for days all he thinks of is how to get revenge. He then says to himself that he knows how to use "magic." He had forgotten it before because the use of magic was prohibbited (sry if I spelled that wrong) in the city. A type of magic skill he had was harnessing power. So what he did was harness the power of Wind, Earth, Fire, Ice, and Lightning. He succeeded and then merged them together. Then, everything that I said before still happens. So basically what I'm trying to do here is say "why" the priest was exiled. Because it was just kind of "blank" in the beginning, if you know what I mean. It probably won't be exact, but similar to what I said. I'll have more screenshots later. This is what I'm going to be working on now. Tell me what you think. Like I said before, I need Opinionization! :D
-
Update: Ok, everything that I said in the last post is still going, but I've changed it so that it has the FIRST intro from my first post. And then you learn more of the story later on. (It shows what happened and it is a little more discriptive.)
Edit: Forget the Rudora thing. I've decided to still use my own.
-
Ok, I need you guys' opinion. Is it bad to use rtp monsters. I am going to use some that aren't rtp, but I also might use monsters from the rtp. I personally like em. Mythological creatures are awesome in my opinion. I just want to know what you guys think though.
-
I can't see 'em. Dang.
-
Oh, the screenies. For some reason they got deleted from my pb account. I'll put em back up.
-
What I like to do is take a look at the rtp monster and just take out the ones I know I wont ever use then work my way up from there.
-
Yeah, same here, because alot of them are useless and dumb.
BTW: Screens are re added on page 2.
-
Alright, from now on this is where I'll have the latest info on my game. The story, characters, and screens will be posted here from now on. You still have to give your opinions here though. Here's the site: http://www.freewebs.com/aos18/ All it has is info on my game. So go there to get the latest info on my game. I'll update every now and then. :D
-
It's looking pretty good! :)
I'll watch more later for updates. ^^
