The Foretold Conquest: A Seekers Story

Soul Seeker: Not much is known of them but they have records of them being able to control souls and use them in combat in various ways.

Umbra: Shapeless creatures that can form into anything they wish....the only way you can tell that an object or thing is an Umbra is due to the complete darkness of their appearance.

Storyline: About 10,000 years ago there was a great war. The war decided who was going to rule over the world, the Soul Seekers or the Umbra. These were the two major powers of the world at the time. Both of them used other smaller races for their needs but the Umbra considered them slaves. The Soul Seekers lived in harmony with the other races and they helped each other out. During the Great War the separate powers also used the other races to aid them in battle. The battle was beyond destructive. It ruined much of the rich land and destroyed monuments due to the battles. Many artifacts of the races and their history were lost in this war. Due to that not much is known of either of these races. It is said that the Soul Seekers emerged victorious over the Umbra and that the Umbra were banished from this realm never to walk on the world’s surface again.
   Now, in the present day, neither race is among the living. But it is said that one day a Soul Seeker would be found and that he would help the world vanquish the Umbra and banish them again if they were to ever come back. So far it’s been 2,000 years since the last Soul Seeker was recorded but there have been no actual records of appearance of a Soul Seeker or Umbra. With that said Soul Seekers could be walking among us without us knowing just waiting for the day that the Umbra would return so that they can vanquish them and make sure the world is safe from their evil yet again.

[psy_wombats]

Kind of interesting... The faces remind me heavily of Fire Emblem... Are those recolors or just the same style? Really can't tell.

[Prpl_Mage]

It's back! And it's back, o god yes it is back at last it is back!

I really do hope that you finish it this time around. Got kinda sad when it didn't last time around.

[InsaneJP]

Prpl_Mage: dont worry ill finish it i have all the common events coded along with every item made and all the common battle events finished so i can stick to the mapping now and not worry about any of the hard stuff

psy_wombats: just recolors but im still deciding if im gunna keep em or make my own

[Linkforce]

Glad it's back Insane!  Everything looks great as ever!  I'm jealous!  Lol
I hope you finish it this time around.

If you need any help with anything, let me know.  

[A Forgotten Legend]

Ooo... can I touch it??  ...pretty....

[GrooveMan.exe]

Ooh, can you go into a bit more detail on this Resolve system?

Also, the heavy outlines you used on the overworld character sprites make them look out of place. Maybe try using a coloured outline, or Selective Outlining. :3

[Moosetroop11]

Difficulty levels? That's an idea. I'm not sure anyone would be too interested in the insane level though... Usually games have that because skilled people get more of a kick out of playing the game on hard, but this sounds like it'll just be more grinding between bosses. The alternate endings will have to be pretty damn good :p

Great to see this back. Let's hope you get it finished.

[Red Fox]

**** yeah it's back. Sweet.

[InsaneJP]

Grooveman.exe:

Ahhh the Resolve system... well like a basic limit break you have a bar that fills up and once that bar fills up your attack command changes to Resolve! but thast not all.... once you press on resolve you have a time limit of how long you have to press the combination of buttons at the top. get it right.... and you do the move!.... run out of time and your resolve is wasted.

As you level up you get higher level resolves as well which have different and more difficult combinations.


Moosetroop:

Ive actually been thinking of other perks i can add to doing the Insane mode besides different ending.

Im thinkin about adding a new character and one more level of Resolve per person

Any more ideas id be more then happy to hear em anyone

[Dragonium]

This was one of my favourite projects back in the olden days of Charas. I am very happy that it's back. I will be watching this one.

Good to have you back, JP.

[lonewolf]

god pm me when you  finish this game
as your game look cool one i like to play
i like the looks off Geo and Adama 100%

[ZeroKirbyX]

I'll say what I said long ago, and that's it looks awesome.

But please, change the faces to more than recolors >_>

[Moosetroop11]

In that thin battle form the faces do look pretty good, though. It's only when they're speaking that it looks obvious.
