Betrayed - Demo coming soon!

I recently started a project with one of my best friends. We're not almost done or something like that, but we already have the complete story and info on characters, so we already have the whole plan in our head.

His name here is _Siegfried_
I just thought, let's register on .org and show them my game.

Story so far:
Richard is a 20 year old Soldier for the kingdom of Sacrius. The most peaceful, and tactic kingdom in the world. Recently, the villagers report attacks of thieves and monsters, and the king goes on an exploration with Richard and some few other soldiers. They travel trough the Nival Mountains, the most dangerous place in the world. When they reach the top, there is no monster to be seen. Neither are there thieves.
The king turns around and stabs the soldiers to death. Richard quickly took his sword and a there was a battle. After a few minutes, the king stabs Richard in his leg and he falls of the edge. The king smiles and walks away..

Richard didn't die. He hang on to a tree stuck in ice. When he gets saved by an enormous bird he starts a new life, together with the thief Axel. He needs to find out what happened with the king, and if needed, kill him. The only word he can think of: Betrayed...


As i already told, we're not done with making the game, but we have planned a demo.

I'll show any screenshots of the game here.
At the moment, we only have one of which we think that it's an okay screenshot.

There will be a whole crapload of puzzles in the game.
Most of the time, you'll need to solve them as Moany or Ave


Thoughts
Most of the time, the characters have thoughts.
You can read these thoughts in the menu.


Library
Most of the games have a library. But what is the feature of it?
In this game, you can read books to increase your Skill Level.
At some levels, you learn new skills for in battle.

Well, this is all the info we have for now over the game.

your story was actually kind of unique but i'm not sure if it's because i dunno if ive heard it before but yeah i haven't? it kinda reminded me of the lion king but i dunno if that's just because there's some strange reason why i only thought of scar killing mufasa by throwing him off a cliff ..oh yeah but mufasa really does die, so yeah i actually was entertained by the story it was really generic at all...kinda really interesting actually

cool beans

oh ps. happy 420!!
 
I think the rules say you need 3 screenies, and I personally want that too because 1 screenie is not enough...

Also, I don't really think I can comment much on the game itself, its just too short you know.

Anyways a nitpick: 20 is too young for me, but at least its better than Young Teens Saving the World.

Its also cool to see the king betraying his fellow soldiers.

Also, having a thoughts features sounds pretty unique, but I'm skeptical of how it's going to be implemented.

Also, I hope the library feature isnt going to be like "LOL GRINDING READING BOOKS LOL" like reading a book a 100 times to gain a level or learn a skill, you might as well put a bot there to do the work.
