[FULL GAME] Dragon Fantasy.

[Ephiam]

Story:
Many years ago a great entity of sin emerged from the darkest depths of the world and tried to cover eveyone and everything in perpetual darkness. Darkness covered the land, causing the seas to rage, the forests to wither and the earth to decay. However, as from where the darkness was born there also came light: Born from the planet it's self came four great crystals of light. This light shone through the darkness and caused the entity of sin to return to the nothingness whence it came. The crystals bore themselves back into the depths of the earth and then began to sleep, protecting all from the darkness of the world. After the darkness had receeded, the light slowly began to return to the world. The people regained hope and begin to rebuild what they had lost.

Now, many years after this incident, the story of the great darkness and the light in which broke it's grasp upon the world has been handed down to the newer generation. As the crystal slowly began to re-awaken, a child was born within the village of Yur. This child bore the sign of a saint and was a token of light for the villagers. Now, in order to test his heart, courage and strength he has been guided into the Crystal Caverns in order to receive the crystal's blessing.




Gameplay:
The gameplay is to be sort of reminicent to old, NES-type RPGs (Dragon Quest/Warrior 2,3 and 4 and Final Fantasy). It has a standard turn-based battle system in which both you and your party exchange blows with the enemy. It uses RPG maker 2000's default battle system and it is front-view. There is indeed no fancy battle animations, and there are only small battle backgrounds in which I think seem to fit more than a black screen.


Maps:
The mapping is supposed to be reminicent to that of NES-type RPG's such as Final fantasy 1-3 and Dragon Quest/Warrior. Nothing is too detailed, nor is it too simplistic. If your looking for the best mapping around, don't come here.

Thank you.

[Dominicy]

Yaaay it's done :D

On a side note, I remember the name Macubex from some where...

[Ephiam]

Hurrah! It IS finally done. I am very glad, too. It may very well be the first AND last RPG Maker game I EVER fully complete. But...you may never truly know now, will you? I suppose we shall have to wait and see.

And Macubex is a member of Gamingw (maybe other places as well, but that is where I first knew of him.)

[A Forgotten Legend]

Yay  Maybe I'll get to this after the musical is over at my high school!

I WANT TO PLAY THIS AGAIN SO BADLY BUT THIS COMPY DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH MEMORY. :*(

So I'll have to go to my grandparents' to play it.

[Ephiam]

Hurrah! Well...I hope you do get to play it eventually.

I think that you're the person who's been posting in my other DF topics too, aren't you? Lol. Can't remember. :X

[Moosetroop11]

I'm seriously impressed that you finished it. I'll download it at some point, definately.

[coasterkrazy]

I played it a bit. I love the style! I won't get to play a lot of it for a long time, though. I'm really busy.

[Ephiam]

Thank you for the download+comments, people!

Glad you got to try it out at least, coaster. =)

[Moosetroop11]

Downloaded. Now I just have to find time to play it!

EDIT: So far so awesome. I even enjoy the battles, and front view usually puts me off games! Cool.

The whole thing has a professional feel about it. There's some grammar mistakes but they don't harm the overall game much.

[Ephiam]

Woot! I'm glad that you've enjoyed it so far, Moosetroop.
And..yeah, I'm willing to bet there is a good ammount of mistakes in spelling/grammer. However, I did try and fix everything I happened to spot.

[Halfling]

Played it and liked it. It sure brought back some good memories of my younger days
Everything was splendid, except the plot was quite cliche. I also liked that the battles weren't just "mash-the-attack-button" type.
4 thumbs up, keep 'em coming.

[Moosetroop11]

I'm taking forever over this because I've been so busy lately, but I'm still playing, bit by bit :p

I like the difficulty level, but I think the bosses are a bit easy compared to the wild monsters.

[Ephiam]

Are they? Well...yeah, I would probably have to agree on that. At one point, the bosses were way too tough. But now...heh, they're weaker then a normal encounter.
