Strange Trinity (non-official)

[sleepel]

Hiya!
I'm not all that expert in rm2k, but me and my fellas are giving a shot. Sorry about any English mistakes. See it for yourselves:

STORY: A small isle in the middle of the ocean.
Two young and lazy neighbors, Luke and Delivous, were off to see their "fella" Kakui, in order to play games and talk about nothing, as usual. But the guys had rivals. Women, with a agressive leader (Setsuna), a cool shooter (Akemi) and a gullible cleric (Linna). The two gangs are considered inofensive by the villagers, so both fight off all the time. And the guys have the lead between them.
After the battle, they search for a rule book around the city library. Unfortunately, the last edition was sold earlier in that day. They would be able to get one going to the isle's capital. And that's the plan...
Meanwhile, the island's queen was going nuts for some odd reason! She decided that the game was evil and the players, heretics.
The trio discovered about it too late and were arrested. Now, they must flee from the Heretic Hunters and discover what happened to Their Majesty!

Features: Well, we're planning having mp3 converted in mid in some parts - at least for character's themes.
Class changing;
a kind of forging weapon-system;
summons, many summons;
secrets that can be unlocked just after finishing the game;
Other things still in development...

That's about it!
Hope that you guys get curious to see something else!
See you all!

by non-official in the title, do you mean to say that youre planning on starting another thread about this?

Better make the gameplay reaaaallllllllyyyyyy good. The Storyline is pretty run-of-the-mill. SOme good Character Illustration, verbal and visual is going to help your project.
Plot twists. Mini games. An innovative battle and menu system.

Dont take it the wrong way, but this needs work. Good Luck.

Thanks for the feedback!

The non-official thingy is just about the crappy name, I'll think through a better one with the other team members later ^^'

Well, all the characters have distincts personalities and could be easily identified by the players. The beginning can be crummy-like, but after the first act, major twists will coming. Many side-quests will also be included along the acts.

About battle and menu systems, I would like to know some tips in doing a original one.

Next time we'll have a good update.
Thanks again!

Perhaps you could flesh out the description a bit, what exactly is this game? The guys and girls fight in teams against each other as a hobby? You weren't too clear.

I would definately work on the characters and plot a little before working on battle systems and innovative menus. Good luck

Wait... The queen knows of a game thats played only between 6 kids, and deems them as heretics because of it?

Officer: "We have just deemed candy land illegal because it supports the interest of crack addicts."

Children: "Yes! I just drew a double red square card! I got to the candy castle gates! I win!"

Officer: "Stop them! They are clearly high and under the influence of crack!"

Yeah, I could see that happening in a game, actually.
