Everything you do will affect the entire course of the game.
My title so far : 'To God all flesh come'
I'm starting with that. Once I get the title setteled, I will elaborate.
K-Edit: Profanity removed from Topic Description.
-
... congratulations?
-
That sounds complicated. You mean if I step right instead of left in a certain part of the game, I will affect the entire course of the universe?

*steps on a crack and the cosmos are sucked into oblivion*
XD
-
I mean like there will be many ways to beat it. But by that time, you Char wil haqve changed so much.....
Think about the title, dude.
To God all flesh come

In a sense, yes.
-
So just like life, in your game for about every action there is a reaction?
That is awesome!!
-
Great idea! I love the chaos theory.
-
Yeh, you start as a kid and grow up to be... ?
Oh, hey, nice sig MSlash. :D
-
Yarr, I be making a title screen.
I also be thinking about changing the font.
-


Two other options. Someone post. Next time I make an update, I don't want to have to make a quadruple post.
-
i like the 1st and 3rd one, but the 3rd seems better, im not to sure at the moment
-
Allright then. But wtf is this thing talking about. Invalid image depth? and invalid image size? I facking hate RM2k3. RM2k wouldn't have given me this ****.
-
Just convert it to PNG with PhotoShop, or if you dont have that, use something like 2PNG convertor (http://www.sharewareconnection.com/download-2png-from-sharecon.html). Also, the maximum size of title is 320x240.
-
It is a PNG. I made those with PSCS.
-
I think you have to many colors. try changing it to 256 colors.
-
I uh... kinda forgot how to change it to 256 colors..... God, I feel so noobish right now.
-
If CS is anything like 7, just go to image>mode>Indexed Color, and a little box should come up with 256 already in it. If not just type it in...
-
I have CS and 7. Thanks, yo.
Edit: It doesn't do jack. RM2k3 still won't let it in.
-
Hmm... did you save it as a PNG? If so, I honestly have no idea, unless you're not selecting "titles" from the raw image importer, and are trying to import it as another resource...
-
did you make it with a layer program? I'm pretty sure rm2k/3 doesn't like layered images. If so, then you gotta to get it out of the layer style, maybe opening it in original Paint.
-
Actually, it will automatically flatten the image when you save it as a png.
-
hm... than I'm stumped...
-
Cool idea! It's kinda like Fable but it actually changes the story
-
It's still not working. This bites. can one of you try to import it into your game to see if it works?
Yeah, I thought about fable a little after I figured it out... Then I was like, dammit , It's like fable. Then I looked at your post and was like, phew, a difference. Then I posted something that said: Yeah, I thought about fable a little after I figured it out... Then I was like, dammit , It's like fable. Then I looked at your post and was like, phew, a difference. Then I posted something that said:
Well, you get teh idea.
-
here you go it worked for me
-
Ok, thanks. I'll get it as soon as I get home. It's a red X here at school... Fekking old-*** macs....
I like your sig BTW. That's an SCA battle in the background.

I feel like I'm maing good progress. (J)
-
Your game sounds like it will be crazy hard to make especially with just rm2k3. But I just thought i'd let you know if you need any help just let me know and I might be able to help. Some things im good at and others i just plain suck. anyway good luck and post something up here when you finish. I want to play this kindof fable kindof not fable game.
-
Oh, Right on. What you good at? You got AIM?
-
Ok. I'm working on books now. I made some parchment for it. Seice it's too big of a file to upload on recources, I'l post it here so ytou can use it. Cedit me, please.
-
It's not too big, the resources are just being gay... looking good though..
-
It says that maximum size is 700 bytes. This is 72 kb. wtf?
-
So... let me get this straight...
The actions you take affect the game, right?
So does that mean if you choose to let your character grow a beard instead of shaving, the final boss, with all its typical evil dark setting and giant weapons, will be reduced to hysterics on the floor at the sight of your facial hair, thus providing easy spikey-broadsword fodder?
If so, I like it! :D
-
... No ... Say you attack a person who would normaly give you a quest. Anything that that quest linked to will be gone.
Ok.
Holyshitmybrainisfried Update:
The Chicken system.
I am proud to say that I have almost finished my 'Chicken System'
In the chicken system:
You normaly have just your house. you can go to a chicken vendor and buy a chicken pen from him. When you go back you'll have a chicken pen next to your house (no chicken in it). You can buy one chicken at a time.
After you buy a chicken, you'll have a chicken (duh) in your pen. You can walk into the pen, go up to the chicken and click it. It will say:
"Slaughter chicken?
Yes
No"
If you choose no, obviously nothing will happen. If you click yes... The screen will go black. You'll hear a "THOCK! BUCKAK!". Then, in two seconds, the screen will become normal again. The chicken will be gone, but you'll have an item in your inventory called 'Raw chicken' you can walk up to your stove and cook it.
If you try to buy more than one chicken, the guy will say "Im sorry you allready have a chicken". A whole bunch of other complexities like that too. Like, when you talk to him a second time he'll say "hello, again, would you like to buy something?" Rather than "Hello, boy, would you like to buy something".
You also can't buy the chicken pen twice. Once you have it, you have it. I have a shitload of bugs to work out. I'll say when I finish it. I also am 1/3 into a gambling system. Only I have a tut for the Gambling thing....
ANyway, my brain is fried like you wouldn't belive. I've been working on the Chicken System for the last three hours. ****
Feedback? Questions? Post.
-
why? It seems kinda pointless to me...
I mean a chiken system? in an RPG?
wtf?
-
Calm down, kid. Apperantly this is the only post of mine in this topic that you've read. And apperantly, you didn't read it thoroughly. I was saying that I plan for there to be unlimited things for you to do. The said chicken system is one of them. I also said what it was good for. Like getting chickens (a health restorer) inexpensively.
Bear with me. I know it might strain you to think creatively, but try to understand that I'm making a GOOD RPG. I mean, BoF3 had a fekking onion as one of the main characters and that game rocked.
-
HELL YEAH!!! CHICKEN SYSTEM!! I love the idea... nice!
-
What you really need is to add an egg laying feature, but make the eggs a mere fraction of the goodness of the chicken.
So you have a choice, be a pacifist and gradually get your little eggs for no extra cost, or kill the thing and get a whole meal, but a price next time you want to do it.
-
Hell yeah, egg laying, Right now I'm fixing a bug about the chicken beign invincable. Pissing me off. I'll try to work in the egg laying thing after I fix this ****.
-
BAHAHAHA I AM SO HAPPY! AFTER OVER 20 ****ing HOURS OF MAKING IT I HAVE FINISHED THE BASIC CHICKEN SYSTEM!!!!!!!! Ok.
I will now do something else as I am fried right now. Then I'll implement the cooking and egg laying system.
Oh yeah, DragonBlaze helped me figure out one of the bugs that was pissing me off SHOUT OUT OF THANKS TO DB!
-

Lol, anytime :D
Anyway can't wait to see this game in action :)
-
Haha, thanks man. Won't be for a while (Spent over 20 hours on the chicken system) because I only have 11 maps right now.
EDIT: Cooking system is done. Starting tradeable (useless aside form trading from town to town) (you could be a merchant if you like) items. Along with a whole slew of accesorys to aid your kickassory.
-
Skills and spells are now 50% done.
Will be on hold for a week or so as I finish my website.
-
A week to finish a website? I could type an entire one out in 4-5 hours...
Anyways, It's lookin' good, especially with the systems :D Any word on a demo release date?
-
Sure, you could type out a website in a day. So could I. But neither of us could make a good[/] website in a day.
Hm.... A Demo. I never thought of making one. I was just thinking of makeing a kickass game to blow everyones mind....
-

haha! true, true...
Ok then, I'll just wait to have my mind blown. *waits patiently*
-
Fugg that. I'll make a demo whenever I get around to it. :D
-
You got any more screenshots on it yet? Maybe ones of gameplay?
-
1. back on working on it.
2. No scrren shots that are in any way interesting. I'm working on coding stuff, so I havn't worked much on maps. Here's the thing of the Chicken system I was talking about.

I know, it's crappy. I've edited that map seince then, so it looks *a little* better.
His house (also has been edited after this was taken)

Sorry, I took these a while ago. The stairs have been made to look like that rug, now.
-
Comments? Anyone?
-
Pretty good so far. Keep it up! :D
-
Whew. I was expecting a "Your maps are too empty"
-
Making a farming system. Grow your own medicinal herbs and culinary vegetables.
Yep, sonny! Dis' right here is gonna be one hell 'f a tomatoe plant right there. :smoke:
-
So is there going to costume changes by choice or is it all going to be built in.
Also it would be pretty sick if you made like a dating system kinda like a dating sim where you make small talk, buy stuff they like, maybe they can quiz you on stuff they talk about. Hell that would be a great game on its own.
-
I'm having both of those things. I just havn't started on them. After I finish this farming thing, I'm going to be doing the CBS. Then I might do a CMS. :jumpin:
Right now I'm writing a lot of the plot. I've got a full page so far. But I have more ideas.
I won't be making that demo... I like the idea of a trailer better.
-
Guess you're right.
I like the way this is going. Seems fun. Looking forward to trailer. :D
Farming... Got any tomacco in it so far? :D
-
Tommacco? No. They didn't have any plutonium back then. :o
Once I figure out how to do it (_sweat_); I'll make that trailer.
-

But they had magic. Surely a "Transmogrification" spell might work. :)
I can't help you with a trailer, unfortunately. Will you be using Flash, or just making the whole thing one big cutscene (Easier)?
-
nice,
wait a sec. i remember sumtin........:D i know again..........
i edited those characters for u! :P
heehe, thats where i remembered them from XD
-
I could use Flash MX.... I was thinking Movie maker. Everyone keeps saying that's easy.
...I honestly cannot figure that **** out.
-
-Now editing images for farming system.. CMS was pissing me off. Will get to it later.
-
sounds good sleepaid. If you want anymore ideas just ask me, or get my msn. I could give u hell. P lus if u ewant anymore grphics i could try.
-
I HAVE your MSN and have talked to you on it before :p
Yea, I have a bunch of random **** I should make books (book items in the game) out of. and need more ideas for...
Edit- finished Gambling system.
-
Yeah, I'd definatly go with a CMS what with all the systems and such.
IMO, Movie Maker is easier. All you gotta do is take screen shots and upload them to movie maker, than cut them down and put them next to each other on the timeline. Plus I'm almost lost in flash.
-
Yeah, I'm makin' that CMS before my CBS. And whenever I have the motivation to figure it out.
Holy ****... you mean I have to take a screen shot for each frame?
-
Yup. It painstakinly sucks.
-
Uh... There HAS to be an easyer way to do this sort of thing.
-
STOP RIGHT THERE!!! There, now that you're not doing it the hard way, you can get programs the record what is happening on your desktop. I have one, but I can't remember what it's called. Go to download.com and look for something like "Video Capture" or something
-
I think they have one on www.Gamingw.net
It should be in the programs section. I used it to rip some stuff a looooooooooooooooooooooong time ago.
-
Sweet... Thank you pops.
-
Eh... every time I open it, it suddenly comes up with a "This program has encountered an error and needs to close" thing. Heppens right after I click record. _sweat_ Any idea what this's about?
-
Well, I've had a lot of people asking for a bit of the story line.
So, I've decided to tease you untill the trailer is finished.
"Eversummer - 967 CR. The peasants rise against their ruling country, Shkrall. The Peasants damand to be able to keep more grain. Shkrall refuses.
In a last resort, Eversummer refuses to deliver any grain to Shkrall's capital, Overtower.
Many die of starvation.
Enraged, Shkrall launches an attack on Eversummer.
Senderik, a young farmer boy, watches in horror as everything he loves is brutaly torn from him.
In the slaughter's wake, no one is left alive.
Not even little Senderik.
But Senderik Sees a way. He sends a plea to the Devil for life.
And he finds a way for life.
A way for UnLife.
A way... For revenge."
-
I like the story line, but a couple questions:
Why was Senderick sent to hell?
When he is given life so he can have revenge, what kind of weapon does he use?Dark Magic? A pitchfork? Scythe? or a Shotgun? He has to fight with something
-
Good questions.
1. He isn't nesseceraly sent to hell. He just bargins with the devil. You know, it's classic in that way.
2. Being as versitile as it is, you can choose what weapon you want to use. Any kind.
-
-Farming system done. You can now buy land, plant, grow, and pick healing herbs, berzerker mushrooms, cabbage, etc.
By the way, I would like to hear all yalls comments on my storyline. I would like to improve it in any way I could. :)
-
Erm... why didi Senderik turn to the Devil instead of the Lord, like most sane people would?
-
Your game sounds really good! And creepy. Maybe greepy, or crood. I don't know.
-

Well, look at all the classics. EVERYONE you play is on the good side. Why not play evil for once?
B'sides. if you were watching as everyone you loved was mercilesly slaughtered, would you still be sane?
-
... yes.
-
_sweat_ You don't count then...
You'll understand when you play the game. If I say anything else it will give something away.. :)
