    The War on Nouvel Series: Chapter 1: Caeluss

    My background...Yeah, you'll probably skip this section

    Hello, I am Fan King. You might know me from around the forums and such, asking and answering questions. Giving my opinions. I started hacking in February, but after a week took a break then two months later (may?) I took it up again. So then I started creating a hack. I went through about 45 ideas, none of them keeping my interest to keep them going. But now I present to you my my most eminent idea. The Nouvelian War Series!

    The War on Nouvel Series: Chapter 1: Caeluss

    Info and some background

    Rom Base:
    The War on Nouvel Series: Chapter 1: Caeluss

    Start Date: June 5 2009 ( I'm surprised I still remember this:mudkip^_^:)
    Release Date of Beta\next version: TBA, but possibly in the next couple of weeks

    The War on Nouvel Series: Chapter 1: Caeluss




    This series features several chapters, each chapter one game.
    This time period is varied. One country is based in native american\colonial time\while one is based in present day.

    On the huge land continent of Nouvel there exists 2 countries that span the land. The largest power, The Drajonis, a militaristic, powerful empire, and the Avalians, a culture driven free and independent countries. The Drajonis and Avalians are so different from each other, they are stuck in different time periods. Avalia acts as a third world countrie, with no organized protection force, having thier people live free lives, only morals keep the laws. The Drajoni are present age, with all the technology we have.

    Tension between each other grows ever so frequently. The Drajonis are forcefully pushing the entire world for revolution, while the Avalians are keeping there traditions and resisting the urge. Rumors of erupting war emerge, the only thing keeping the Nation's security are newly born vigilante groups, using Drajoni technology against them

    You are a boy\girl, starting the game on your 16th birthday. It is custom where you live to participate in a "trail" of manhood\womanhood. After waking up late, you hurry off to your village storehouse, where your DAD awaits your arrival. Telling you about the trial he sends you off to catch a pokemon bare handed, and retreiving a scarlet feather from the nearby caver, Orono Cave. He also tells you to meet him in the next city over, Alaway City. As you travel, you encounter one of the vigilante groups, having a encounter with Drajoni agents. You help the group, defeating the agents, sending them away. You are then invited to join the group, you can either refuse the invitation or accept it.

    As you arrive in Alaway city, your DAD greets you, telling you that your Aunt has a proposition for you. When you talk to her, she tells you that about the Tournament of Passion, a cultral tradition in Avalia where all the trainers in the country fight to obtain 8 amulets which grant you passage into the tournament.


    note: think of the Drajoni as America, and Avalia as third world African nations

    Thanks for the credit, and the title screen looks very choppy now that i think about it.
    -the flames (yuck! too many colors and it clashes
    -the sprite (good sprite, but after changes it may need some changing
    -the writing of: "Caeluss" (THE COLOR!! and the font is sort of :/

    and i quote, " It's not that hard to run your post through a spell check on word before posting it..." THAT'S FROM YOU Fan King. and PC even has a spell check. O.o XD

    Well, your Hack is pretty amazing from what I see now. Well, the titlescreen is kinda good, but needs improvement as mentioned by Indy Racer. Well, keep up the good work! (Wow, this is the first that I've used so many "Well"s. :P)

    "well" thanks for the constructive criticism and the compliment.

    From what I see from the poll, that title screen really sucks:P, I'll have to do it next week, becuase I'll be away

Thing is...I'm kind of forgetful. If you don't hear from me for a good week or so, I'm probably lost in my own world and you should send me a pm to get me back on track.

    Just took a look at the screenshots when I got my topic subscription update. The game looks beautiful! The only games that might surpass it in just graphics would have to be the Ruby Destiny series, but that's the amazing thing. This game is only up to beta one and it looks awesome, while those games are already finished. Great work. Send me the beta whenever you've got time. No rush.

    In case your sprites are still disappearing, have you checked their person event no. in Advance map? If several sprites on the map have the same number things can get funky.
