The Pernicious(Non Pokemon Game)

[omarfr]

What this is about
--------------------
There isn't much of a story-line right now and I will work on that later. This game is really just something I'm making to play around and get better a making maps and RMXP in general. It's also a project to work on while I wait for a good Pokemon Battle system to get finished(For my Gold remake).

It uses Zenith's Tactical Battle System which is an awesome battle-system script in my opinion.

The basic concept is, your in a Guild of Heroes(Yes I know, very original) and you take jobs from this guild and get rewarded for it. I plan to try and make conversations with NPCs more interesting then most games.

It Takes Fallouts idea where your choices change depending on different factors.(Note I have not added any of these to the demo yet)

An example would be

Hero with 10 intelligence

NPC: Hey what's your name?
Hero Choices:

-Grr...
-Plumph!
-Neeee!!!!!
-Kuur!

NPC: Get away from me!

Hero with 100 intelligence

NPC: Hey what's your name?

Hero Choices:

-<insert name>, what's your name? *extends arm to shake*
-<insert name>, what's it to you?
-Hey man **** you, it's none of your business!
-I'm sorry but that's none of your business.

NPC would then respond according to choice.

DEMO
------------------------------------------

Yes I do have a demo, it's not much. Only two battles you can do right now.(one of them is a quest, and the other a battle with the man at the desk)

The only reason I made one is because my friend wanted to see it.

SCREEN SHOTS
------------------------------------------

Here are two screenshots, not very interesting...

Your screenshots are pretty good, but you kinda condensed the flowers into one area on each map. And the lack of a storyline is kinda disappointing.

I'm very disappointed with this screenshot. It shows a severe lack of mapping skills. For example, the wall around the area is of a vastly inconsistent height. (I assume it's below sea level, but that path on the right needs to show the wall above as higher. Also, the house roof should be longer if the house is going to have the top of the roof appear where it does, otherwise it looks like the roof is at quite a slant. (Where it's leaning further up the further away from the "camera" it is". Just extend it further down, and it'll be OK. Or, you could make the house taller. Also, you ability to map natural areas is also lacking. I mean, thare are TONS of tutorials on this. This game looks to be put together hastily, without much thought for a finished project. (I'm sorry about the harshness of my comments. I'm quite the accomplised mapper, but I have a pet peeve for people who seriously botch maps like you've done. Also, I should know about the hastily put together thing, I started a couple of projects that way, and they all failed miserably)

Well, Glitchfinder did pointed out all things I was gonna say when I first saw the screenshot (and some more :p)... I suggest you take some online mapping academies/classes to improve your skills.

However, It's always nice to see some RTP-styled game here, even when people say that non-pokémon games don't get attention in this forum.
