Carpe Diem [Demo Now Out]

The premise is nice. It could use some deepening and more developing, but I figure you are going to do that as the dev process progresses. You mapping is nice, but you could try and make the exterior maps less linear and more random, like a real environment. You characters seem well developed and thought out. I'll keep an eye out!

Good luck,
Mundane
 
I agree with mundane, this has quite a bit of potential, the thing that's bothering me about your mapping, however, is that there are many graphics that clash with the default graphics of the RTP.
 
@Mundane- Thank you very much for you imput. I'll be sure to work harder at my exterior maps ^_^
@Ratty524- Thank you for saying that as I just took a lot of notice towards that and I intend to fix that up right away.
 
With no wish to become a hero; she worked at the devilry service alongside her childhood friend ‘Noah Ethem’.
I take it she really don't wish to become a hero.

Anyway, characters look good and the story has great potential.
 
@Crystalgate -Yeah I try to make the characters more realist, because you don't have simply there you go he/she's a hero.
Thanks for your imput too ^^
 
I like the fact that you (or your artist person) drew the faces after the sprites were made. Looking very good, and yes it has some great potential.
 
@Fuff24- That's my aim of the game. To let the players have a connection with the characters and understand why they do things. And thanks very much for the kind words.

Xathia Vastar- I recently changed the screen shot's before hand there was a bathroom tileset that didn't fit in right.


Akinari- Thanks for pointing that out.

XQNP7- Yeah I did draw them after. Mainly because I hate going back and rechanging things. Thou Art I must have changed a few times because I just didn't feel like I had gotten his character like I wanted. I'm very happy with how he turned out now.

Demo should be out by next month or even before hand. As I'm working on the first dungon now and after that I'll only work into a few more minior cutsceens and then send it off the some beta testers ((If you'd like to be a beta tester please send me a pm))  . The Game play should be around an hour I'm thinking.
Keep an eye out ^_^
 
-Updates-
I have updated all of the screen shots as well as added new ones.
I have place the full list of credits.
I have made an art works section.
I have put the theme to the game up for download for thoes who want to hear it. ((Again please don't use it in your game))
Thank you ^_^
 
The theme musik sounds good. As for the screenshots, they aren't particular good or bad. On the plus side, they seem to capture the right atmosphere. On the minus side, some of them seem rather empty. I don't think you should add more clutter, but some rooms and hallways are bigger than they should be.

BTW, I see that Chloe is still helping people to sell their souls.
 
Your story is innovative, orginal, and very well thought out.  I've never seen something like it in RPG before, and I'm looking forward to it!  Your mapping skills are great too; the town of Shar is especially well done in my opinion.  Much better than I could do in RMXP.   :thumb:  I also like how you're having a female lead, something RPGs tend to be seriously lacking these days.  Go girl power!  :tongue2:  I'd be more than happy to help you with making the facesets with emotions; I'm working on some for my own project as well.
 
@ Crystalgate- Thanks for pointing that out I'll do my best to make the mapping a little bit better ^_^ and trust Chloe to steal souls >.>
@Paige Knightly- Thank you so much for your comment, its the ones like that which give me inspiration to add more to the game. I don't think I've ever had a male lead in a game I've ever thought of, I think thats just because of most the games I've had played had male leads. Yay girl power ^_^.
I might take you up on that offer as soon as I find the right facesets to begin with heh, I've gone through a few now but should fine them soon ^_^
 
-Update-
The demo is now up and ready for download,
If you find an error please post here or note me in detail where and what it is so I can find it with ease.
Thank you ^_^

And thanks for moving this, I was wondering how to do that heh ^^
