The Huntes Chronicles of Prophecy
« on: November 02, 2007, 08:47:01 PM »
The story has been changed in a few ways to make it more enjoying to read. (hopefully)

FINALY! Demo 1.0 is out! This demo will take you from the beggining of the game to the end of the cave (which I edited alot and is 300x300)

So far, 7 days of work...


 Story

The Knightblade Prophecy

Quote

And a boy will be born in a family of one...
And of the family of one, the boy will have a son
And of that son will be an aura of likeness. That son will have the Mark of the Knightblade...Death will follow that boy in the end, and All existence of man will end. The exile, the huntes, and the Prophecy... Knightblade prophecy.  


You are a young boy, dreaming of adventure.



One day long ago, your brother has signed up for a job of the town guardian. Today he is going to have a ceremony to be officially knighted into the job. an adventurer. After you finish somethings for your father, you are sent your way to the ceremony. That night, after the ceremony, your brother must stay with the elder for the night. You, on the other hand stay home and go yo bed. Thinking you'll never see your brother again, you have trouble going to sleep. that some warm milk would help you out, sleeping wise, you hed toward your cabinet. However, once you get there, You find a ghost has suddenly appeared in the middle of your house. Startled, you you jump up and yell. As soon as you jump, the ghost lets out a plea for help.That doesn't help your sanity level.  Suddenly your teleported to a castle.
A strange, run down castle, but a castle never the less.wondering how and why you got there, you begin to pace upwards. When you walk up, your attacked by the guards for no exact reason. After knocking the guards silly, you wake up in bed.
Thinking that everything after going to bed was a dream, you get up  and go outside, and find out your sister has been kidnapped by an unknown person in the town. Fearing about what will happen, your brother sets out to find her. Three days latter he hasn't come back. Thinking your brother is dead, you want to go and finish what your brother started.you sneak away to the exit of the town, hopping no one notices. To your amazement your dad is already at the gate. You expect him to be mad, but instead, he gives you luck, and gives you is hand me down sword. When you ask him why aren't you mad, he says that he is more sad because all his children have left him, and he would do the same when he was younger. Leaving your dad with half resentment, you step into the forest.

As soon as you step out into the forest, your life will be changed forever.

Well, It's a decent story. Is the castle dreamish thing important to the story?

All the characters are members of the first town? Might get boring.

Well, that is because they are so far the only main characters connected to the story SO FAR. (not forever, ack, there are tons of characters farther on...I just don't want to accidentally give you a spoiler.)

I don't like it.

The characters have no information other than a small one sentence description. The fact that you've listed your story as a feature means you are cocky and overconfident, a sure sign of a newbie. You've also listed awesome characters as a feature. Like the story, it is an opinion of your own, not a fact, which again shows you're cockiness and overconfidence in yourself. Gorgeous maps and realistic dialogue is also as above, overconfident, cocky, and opinion-based. Lots of weapons and armor are not always a good thing. Invoke chi is only a skillset involved in the default settings of a new project, meaning you either don't know how to adjust the battle commands, or you actually expect to making "Invoking Chi" something new and exciting. You have over 100 characters...and they're all 100% done? Doubt it.

Your story is also very bland.

If the character goes to the cupboard, which is against the wall, how'd he jump twenty feet, in the air or otherwise?
Why is it your character CAN'T sleep because he's worryng about his brother, and next thing we know he wakes up to find everything amiss?
Why does the character sneak away from town? Can't he just walk out?
Why is his father sad?
How does his life change?

You need some work.

And don't use the lack of work time as an excuse. You should know better than to post something half assed.

Hehe. I knew someone would say something like that. But I AM overconfident. Nothing to hide there. Anyway, The Skill system, sher it's the default system, I just added tons of skills that have certain spells.

EX-invoke chi- Update= Makes your char. have more def, agi, and str.
Skill- Large Cut= A very large attack that causes mass damage.
Aura- Helpful aura= Gives a char. an aura the gives 12 health each turn for 4 turns.
Weather- Hail= Inflicts Ice damage to all enemy's on screen, and inflicts hailing condition to all enemy's.
Dark Magic- Hellfire= Causes a massive blaze that severely damages the foe and inflicts burn.
Magic- Meteor= causes a flaming rock to fall from th sky and damage the foe.

Those are ALL my skill types, with an example of one skill from that category.

Your complaint with the characters is reasonable. The thing is that if you read the story, you will figure all you need about the characters. And also, I'm just not a good describer.

With the features, I have had some people test play it, and they tell me what they think. So, anyway, I guess i should say I have play testers?

And using lack of time for an excuse? I don't know where you got that. I was just saying that this project is, now 4 days, old but I wasn't complaining. I was just saying how long I have been working on it.

For the story, Yah. I'm bad about righting about something that  is already created. So it is going to appear bland. (not justifying anything, though)

Also, The reason  kept invoke Chi was because I LIKED the invoke chi setting in the defaults settings (think the name is cool)

And I DO know how to adjust the battle commands. What do you think "Aura" is?

And when I said 100's of characters, It I kind of meant that I had alot of characters. (I have about 7 main, and I have 4 villains, I have LOTS of people, and I have a good bit of  characters that developed the main char. (like the dad, the brother, the sister).

Well, I hope that answers some of your questions. Thanks for the comment! (No sarcasm. Seriously, Its true.)

The mapping was below-average.It was just a boring cave with some rocks and crystals here and there.Then the battles.They were the "mash-the-spacebar" type.You couldn't use any auras or cast any spells just attack,attack,attack.In my opinion the "random encounter" type battles are a bad choice.The music was quite good, and would fit the cave if you would be running from someone.The only decent thing was the custom graphics.They were eye-catching and clean(except the victory battlechar, it looked "broken".
Also I hate the cliche that monsters drop gold.It's only my opinion,though.
And don't try to defend yourself by saying "I only worked for 4 days" or something.If you can't show us something good because you want to show it to us quickly, don't show anything.

Overall, I'd give the game a strong 5.5/10.I would like to see it finished, though.  :)

Ok. the reason you could only go in the cave was because I put the starting point in the rong place.

Ok, now I fixed. And thanks for the comment, I liked your oppinion.

Um... I don't know what to say.  When I started the game it asked me to choose my name with a load of foreign letters and symbols with no way of getting off the screen so I just closed it.

Thanks.By the way, always test play before you post your game download.Testing will let you see if you placed the start position in the right place  :D
