Osheru Shori

April 25, 2008, 04:47:53 PM »
I'm STILL working on this and progression is going SLOW (since I've been doing other things.) I've deleted my other progression thread cause I felt it was too big and it was ALOT of nothing so I shortened it to what matters.
(NOTE: I had to split this up into a couple of posts since this is still quite big.)
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
**Author's Notes:
:
[spoiler]
I ended up changing the background and synopsis a bit. Story-wise I've attempted to branch-out from plot lines where there's a primary villain and I've introduce multiple scenarios to let the player determine the main threat. The story focuses primarily on Shori and Dantevious as they both try to adapt and understand their new species. For the sake of realistically completing this I ended up removing the 2 choice plot scenario's, and some other things as well.
I'm going to say that the story starts off slow and gradually adds upon itself, as there's alot of characters and gameplay elements to introduce.
The setting is a "loosely" modern world. To get a clear picture of what I mean of this, picture modern cities with a MUCH MUCH smaller design similar to those of a basic JRPG town. I've attempted to give my world as much depth as possible to keep it interesting. Even though it's based on modern society there are some ideas you'll find relatively "out there." Technology in this world is a mix of mostly modern and sci-fi elements. For example, there will be cars, airplanes, buses, huge atmosphere destroying factories, cellphones, and small-piloted man made machines.
I've ditched my old "World of Entiria" plot device and decided to flesh out my original aim much more. Now the player will become intertwined with the culture, people, and atmosphere of just one world, Terren. This world has 3 primary races: White, Black, and Fuuma. The culture of White and Black humans is very self-explanatory; however I did implement some interesting twists. The Fuuma however are different. Originally their culture was supposed to be a generic mesh of many east asian elements, however I figured this device was too bland to implement and thus decided to delve much deeper into their role within society. Although it's not set it stone, I do have some intriguing ideas for in store for them. [/spoiler]
**Background Story:
[spoiler]
The rise of technology continues to boom across many areas of the world. Humanity continues to expand beyond their bounds constructing numerous cities for a growing population, additional Highways for an ever increasing commerce, and further establishments of large factories to maintain a strong labor force and productivity. Unfortunately, such a thriving society does not come without it's consequences. Indeed, such growth is leaving a permanent scar within many of Terren's primal wildlife. To combat this, the major powers of the world assembled and established The Terren Fish and Wildlife Service, TFAWS; whose mission is to conserve, protect, and enhance the worlds exotic wildlife and their habitats. One of TFAWS first accomplishments is the passing of the Endangered Species List which is supposed to protect critically imperiled species from extinction
[/spoiler]
**Early Synopsis:
[spoiler]
In order to acquire enough money for an operation to restore Tyler's Vocal chords, Ryle decides to rally up his poaching crew. After several months of searching they finally come up with suitable target, a dragon. Upon hearing of this, Shori (Ryle's older brother) expresses a deep interest and is asked by a friend to help, much to Ryle's dismay. Unfortunately, their hunt ends in failure as they are thwarted by TFAWS and both Shori and the dragon they were trying to kill ends up losing their lives.
Within Heaven, both of their death's was apparently a mistake of some sort and they are both granted a second chance at "life"; not without it's consequences of course as Deus, the leader of Heaven, decides to alter their fates and switch their species! In order to cope with their new lives, they are force to cooperate or else they risk losing their newfound lives once again.

RX-15+ Sureshot Rifle (When human), Entire Body (As dragon)
Profile:
[spoiler]
The former leader of Thunder-Rai and the eldest of the Reinhart brothers. Shori is a laid-back blatant smoker who is also a prone alcoholic. Because of his unruly diet and beer drinking Shori has a much wider girth compared to others which often causes him to be underestimated. However, Shori loves to prove others wrong and has developed a strong ego. He has a strong disliking of animals especially dragons.
As a dragon, Shori retains some key features that are comparable to a human. He walks on 2 feet instead of 4 in a semi-digigrade stance, he has some (albeit very little) hair on his head, he still speaks human, and he retains his vest when he was human which is now able to fit him.

Kali-Luna (Short Sword) and RX-95 Pistol (Small Pistol)

20
Weapon:

Profile:
[spoiler] An employee of Heaven who is assigned to guide Shori to make sure he's effectively adapts to his new life. Nico doesn't care about alot of things but nonetheless she is very optimistic.

[/spoiler]
-------------------------------------------
Dantevious Kn-Kinoh
Age:
39
Weapon:
NONE
Profile:
[spoiler]
A dragon who ends up becoming a human. He tries to maintain a serious/silent/cold persona, but in actuality he's very shy, absent-minded, and has a sweet spot for entertainment. He tends to forget hes human and may do some awkward things. Nevertheless, Dantevious is a prodigy concerning ELE (think magic) and has the power to match his knowledge of it.
As a human Dantevious retains some key features that are comparable to that of a dragons. His ears are pointed at the end, he can talk dragonic, he has striking yellow eyes similar to a lizards, and his canine teeth are larger and arch more then the average human. These teeth are always exposed.[/spoiler]

This is RPG Maker 2003. I just like to use pictures
.
EDIT:
Update:
- Jumping system is now complete! You can jump in almost any map to get over certain obstacles blocking your way by pressing the "0" Key.
-Rock Throwing System is now complete! When outdoors by pressing the "3" Key you can throw rocks at almost anything including other people, and they WILL react occordingly. If you throw a rock at an enemy on the map they may get stunned in which you can bypass them, or get a First Strike! Be careful as sometimes an enemy may get mad and bum rush you into a battle which you can't avoid.

UPDATE: Heres a screen of my CBS. If you played any Grandia games, you might recognize the gauge at the bottom. This screen is semi-incomplete as I am planning to add 2 more gauges called the Boost gauge and the Effect gauge. Unfortunately this is the ONLY screen that I can get of it in action since it's in HEAVY Beta.
INTERESTING NOTE: Everything in the background is done with a Panorama Image.
Too old.. gone.

Sorry, for the double post but I REALLY NEED someone to test my opening and give their opinion if they like it or not. I also need someone to go over my music and see if its good enough (all besides 2 songs is original. (I think..)) I cannot stress enough on how the game is NOT DONE (Nor is it even beta ready.) The CMS and CBS is LOADED with bugs and unfinished events that I already know of. I just need some opinions on the quality of the opening and music.
If anyone is interested I will PM them a link to a download. (since I don't want random people from out of no where to rip my graphics/music as of yet.)
P.S. My game is 15MBs.
