Path To Redemption (Gameplay Demo Avaliable)

[Meiscool]

This is looking pretty promissing. If you ever need any monster sprites with animations of attacks and such, just ask me. I used to be big on making abs games and I have a lot of resources just laying around not being used.

[Fisherson]

Dude this is looking nice. Too bad your using that weird download site that won't let me downlaod your demo.

This link has some of the newer features, just make sure you play from the save game, as some of the starting switches had to be turned on for the demo to work.

Amazingly enough the damage, defence, and accuracy generators didn't take as long as I was afraid they would to make and are now fully operational.

I've decided Im going to be using a "miss" battle animation for when you miss, but I'm undecided as to wether I chould go through the trouble of making damage battle animations showing how much damage you dealt. What do you guys think?

[Meiscool]

If you're going to show damage, which I think is a good idea, you should use pictures instead of battle animations. Since only one battle animation can play at a time, it should be reserved for more important things.

Looks fantastic. Downloading now.

[Rahl]

Well I wasn't aware of the battle animation limitations so I guess pictures will have to do. Do you have a set of numeric pictures I can use Jesus?

[Meiscool]

I do, but it is pretty easy to make your own. Plus, by making it yourself you get to choose what you want your numbers to look like.

If you want me to zip up a set for your and send it I can... but to make your own all you have to do is search the charas resources under systems 1 or 2 (I forget which one has the numbers), find a set of numbers that you like, then just save each number ( 0 - 9 ) to a seperate file.

[Rahl]

I messed around trying to get coordinate system where it makes the numbers as pictures go over thier heads but his turned into a very botherdome way of doing it and I just decided to go back to the battle animations which seems to workd jsut great. I'll let you guys decide if you like it.

It's always a great feeling when you get a lot done and it all works out. You're game looks impressive considering the the different systems implemented. Haven't look at the story, I'll download it and let you know what I think.

[Rahl]

Thanks for the support guys, you might recognize the battle music Drenin (I credited you for it), I tend to enjoy your game music and will be using some of what I found of it in the Charas Database in my game, if its ok with you of course.

[drenrin2120]

Of course, any of my midis you find online are open to use in games.

So I downloaded it and played it and I like it. The battle system can be a little weird and rigid at times, but it's not bad. The boss was really easy. I just attack him with my fire magic and then retreated to charge up my mana and then repeated this until he was dead.

[Rahl]

He was meant to be pretty easy right now.
