This is made with:Rpg Maker XP

Introduction
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Hello, some of you may know me, some of you may not. Now, some of you may also know that I was in the process of making a Final Fantasy fan game called Final Destiny. Well, that didn't work out too well for numerous reasons. For one, My computer crashed. Two, I'm getting into my acting/singing schooling. But, alas, I didn't give up my RPG Making urge. So, now that I got a new computer, and no more school, I shall dedicate my free time to gaining knowledge, and more skills, as I create this new game, and I plan on finishing it, as I have nothing else to do. Also, I am using the original graphics, because I don't care about using unique ones, because this is a game that will help me learn basics on a few things, and bring a good game to the public, using only rtp graphics, with some exceptions of course!

Story
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
The story takes place, in a small town, nearing the kingdom of the Centered Continent. You are a young boy, who is the age of 15. You are sent out, partnered with your best friend on a field trip. A new adventure awaits, as you travel on your uncles boat, to the kingdom of the outer continent. But, along the way, the ship hits a few whirlpools, and the boat crashes on the unknown continent. Many things await our hero, as he tries to get home. But, will he? And.. if he does, is that the end of his adventure?

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Features
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Now the fun stuff!
The many features include:
~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~
A Fishing System
Naming System
A Mining System
A Smelting System
A Smithing System
A Lock Pick System
Side View Battle System
Hundreds of quests.(Hence the name)
Many References to other games
Able to utilize Monster Items for equipment and other useful stuff.

That's all for now. But I assure you, theres more to come!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Screenshots
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Here are some screenshots. Note:Updated, two new screenshots. I might take more, but it's late, and I'm getting tired..

Spoiler:

Your mom and dad are both fighters.
+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Ahh yes, the classic naming feature.
+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

What do you know? Guards playing cards.
+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Fisherman's Den? Well, you know what feature you can do right away!
+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

This is Captain Zel. He was searching for the legendary treasure, the Shiny Gold, but some nasty pirates stole it. A little parody based on our Pokecommunity member, Zel. ("What do we say no to? PIRATES!")
+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

The battle system. As you can see, I need new battle backgrounds now, seeing as how the leader looks like hes in the sky. o.Ô
+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~

Well, you get to travel through some caves. (D'uh)

FAQ
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Cool! Can I help mapping?
No, the mapping will help me improve my mapping skills.

Will there be a beta anytime soon?
Scroll down to the beta section.

Why did it take you a month to update?
That.. was because of some issues at home, and other things.. etc. etc. Doesn't matter though, I'm back and ready to complete this game!

Well, as the public, what can we do to help?
On occasion, I may request a few things. But, only minor things like sprites, Icons, etc. etc. I'm still looking for a replacement sprite for the main character, and more icons for weapons.

Any glitches?
Well, since I'm not a "pro" at this, there may be 1 or two bugs/glitches. So... post your glitches here!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Beta(s)
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
There is now 2 Betas. The newest one is a bit larger than the first, you can finally travel with your uncle Zel, and then, well, I wont spoil it for you. =)
Beta1-Clicky
This is only a very small part of the game, it includes a few secrets, and a quest (if you can find it).
Beta2-Clicky
Now, the adventure can finally take off! (Doesn't mean it starts yet.:P)


=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Glitches
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
No one posted any glitches yet, and all the ones from beta1 should be fixed, if not, then post them all up!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
References
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Alright, you may read the title of this and think, "BORING", but, on the contrary. My game has some references to other games, t.v. shows, etc. etc., and I want you people to play and find them. Look around everywhere, and post what you found here, and I will list it. Kind of like the glitch list, but this is more fun. Not only can you look for glitches, but references as well! As they say in the Shiny Hunters Club, Good Luck hunting!


=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Requests
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Alright, there are but a few things I could use some help with, which is why I am requesting stuff. If you played the battle system on Sudden Quest, then you would know that it shows the weapon when you attack a monster, a neat little feature if I do say so myself, but, one problem, I have no icons!!! I would like to look around the web, but I'm quite busy, and I don't feel like searching for icons whilst searching for the creators. So, if anyone would like to make icons for the weapons (armor if you want, but not that important) that would be great! You will receive credit upon your work, if I use it, and your name in the credits at the end of the game.

Alright, who likes Arshes? I know I don't! But, because he is the main sprite now, he will be for awhile until I can find someone to make a sprite of him. "This mission, if you choose to accept it", will give you the opportunity to make the sprite for the main character of Sudden Quest. You will receive instructions on basically how it should look, and how it should not look through a PM. I know it may sound a "tad" strict, but, it's the main character for crying out loud!! So, if you want to, PM me, and I will give you the details. Thanks!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Last Words
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Your feedback so far has been great, but, I need more people to post, :P which is why I am releasing a tiny beta, to keep those at bey! O,,o

Looks good at the moment... Maybe you shouldn't use the default RMXP characters, maybe you should get a spriter to do that for you... Or use some Pokémon trainers or somthin'... Just a thought... But everything else is good.

Your maps are very good. There is only one problem that I see. The dock has no beams to support it. The storyline sounds a little like Lost In Blue. Anyway, good job, and it is good to see something other than a Pokémon fangame.
No signature to be found here...

Ahh, thanks for pointing that out, I will fix it right away. Also, I fixed the battle system. Another thing, about the battle system, when the sprite attacks the target, you can see the weapon thats equipped to the party member while attacking.

Most games that use the default tileset have poor mapping. However I must say that your mapping skills for XP are amazing and this game will probaly turn out to be a sucsses!

Your first screenshot is really good!

*copies your RTP mapping style*

lol
It's very well done.

The other ones, however, have too much blank spaces. You might wanna add something to the grass (other than that little star-shaped things).

Good game, and it's nice to see non Pokemon games around...

Thanks for the great feedback. I have released a small beta of the first part of the game. It's pretty small, but it gives you an idea of what the game can do. There are some glitches and such, but with the next beta, it should all be fixed with more quests and more storyline. There is one quest you can do, and it's pretty small, but, what can I say?

The Beta dosn't work. When you get to the door that leads out of your room your character says: That was a good sleep, I feel drowsy though... Ugh wonder what Dad is doing? Than the game will pause for a few seconds before shutting down and windows saying its encoutered a problem.

Really? Works fine for me.. lemme test this out. o.o

Edit:I extracted it like everyone else who downloaded it, and it works fine for me. I'm not sure how to solve your problem, except to reinstall it. Btw, to mess with the stuff in the folder, it was some junk that helped me figure certain measures out, and I forgot to remove them. But, they wouldnt cause the problem anyway.

Alright, slightly major update. There is now a new beta you can try out, it goes until the next town. Don't think that's too close, because it isn't! :P
Sorry it took so long to update, but I've been busy. (Everyones excuse, but whatever xP)


one question can you make lik armor with the smithing if yes are you going to make it possible that if you wear it you look different
Yes you can make armor and weapons with smithing, but wearing it to make your character look different.., that would be a tad hard on my part, so, it's good enough for now. But you never know. =)

okay two questions here is the second one how are you supossed to find that lee guy if he is already with you if this is just because its a beta than its okay but i thought i did something wrong so
That is how far the first beta went up to, try the second, and see how many glitches are in there! =D

ps: why is the boss a bat and why is it so darn strong
Well, it is the first (optional) quest, that you can do, so, I just chose any monster. What.. you want a big dragon as your first opponent? :P



Alrighty, I will update more often, (then usual), so check back here every once in a while. It's late, so I will be off to bed, goodnight everyone.

Ahahahahahaha!

That's a nice one, Raz. Me? Being a Capn' (now all of you say Aye aye Capn' !) XP

Well, too bad I really couldn't make it work, having the same problems as the other guys, maybe it's just that I concentrated lots of dust in my RPGM knowledge...? (See if you can post that stuff you mentioned earlier, or whatever)

OK, the game's looking nice, I think (as long as you like RTP stuff). Good luck making it!
And, I wonder what other games will be referenced... What a mystery...

I think I have an idea for the different outfits if I choose to do so, but that would mean that I would need more sprites of the main character.

Haha, of course your a Captain! As for the problem, I'm not sure what the cause of the problem is, because I put all the rtp graphics in the folder, to insure that you can play, well, another mystery that I will have to fix.


I will update once I find the solution, until then thanks for the feedback! =D

hmm, smelting this reminds me of a MMO I played once...

Oh and about the clothes changing, i reccomend using your own sprites for thoes because its hard to edit RTP graphics, because they are so detailed.

anyway keep it up!
