Cell Chamber [DEMO + YOUTUBE TRAILER]

[Calibre]

Whoa, your right, I didn't realise it had gotten so bad all of a sudden. I checked about a week ago and it was only with two or three images. I'm going to restructure the thread soon with new information and a new style soon because the game has changed somewhat. I'm even debating changing the name as it no longer reflects the original story I had.

Yes, I have realised, along with many other people that I cannot produce a 50 hour game! I've cut the last 75% of the story out and an focusing on making the first 25% that much more evntful and deep. That way if I ever manage to finish this I can always make chapter 2, 3 and 4, though this one is taking long enough as it is. The only thing that depresses me is that I really wanted to design all the towns I'd planned!

Anyway, sorry for the rant and thanks for the heads up.

Well, it's a smart move I say. It's similar to me, except I'm releasing each chapter as a demo of the next part in the story. My whole game WILL be able 40+ hours.

I see you decided to go with the episode method. I myself don't prefer this method however i think it is probably a good way to make a game with RPG Maker XP. I look forward to hearing from you to get a full insight of what parts you have removed from the game and at what point episode one ends.
Anyway look forward to testing this again.

Good Luck with Cell Chamber

I never really bothered to look at this thread man. The art looks wonderful, and the world map is well done. I myself also don't enjoy the episode way of creating [games], but it looks nice. Keep up the work Calibre.

 

[Calibre]

As I have said before, I can't take credit for the character artwork, as it's just splices and recolours of characters from studio EGo projects. The world map is completely mine however, though some seemed to think I had edited the final fantasy 8 map!

As for the episode structure - it's a little different to other peoples. Each episode will seem like a full game in it's own right. Timespan will also be larger, the timespan for each episode will be the same as what people create for one off full blown games with rmxp.

As for whats been removed, well feature wise... nothing. Only the story has been thinned out as it was far too complicated for a game made by one person with limited time. The new take on the story is more focused and direct.

Does anyone prefer the new look and feel?

 

[Petros]

Well I'm going to be interesting more so now. It seems to have a different feel to it's previous style. I'm just curious as to how it will all turn out in the end.

 

[Calibre]

I've just created the world map (well integrated it into a script) made by Sephiroth Spawn. Hows it look? There are a few niggles that need to be ironed out though.

The presentation's impressive. The lighting effects you used in the maps are amazing!! They remind me a lot about Suikoden 2 (one of my faves, btw). How do you do it? By script?

The gameplay sounds good. I like the idea of using action notifiers. Adds to the professionalism of the gameplay.

 

[Siege]

I can't see it and i just thought i would let you know, that im not sure if there is meant to be a story on the front page, i can't see one. Also about 5 screenshots are broke.

 

[Calibre]

You must have a slow connection, there are no broken links at all on the frontpage. The different headings you should be able to see:

Logo
What is it?
Story
Characters
Features
Screenshots
Credits
We need you!

The new map is on the previous page to this one and is showing too.

@ Kyoru

Nope, I make all the lighting with just old fashioned fogs, though I do use Daniel3579's double fog script for the more demanding lighting.

I've never played the Suikodens but I'm gonna check some screens out of it to see!

 

[Siege]

All i can see its logo, screenshots, credits, we need you. It is odd, it doesnt work on firefox or IE for me.

 

[Calibre]

Is this happening to anyone else?

Please do let me know and I'll have to reduce the size and quality of the images.

 

[Lust Dragon]

No i can see Character and Features, but it kind slow to load the page
Btw i like the way you use Studio Ego character and they matched the battler

Plus point for Affection system and the World map

I have updated the first post by halving all the image sizes so that hopefully everyone can load them now. They are saved at the lowest possible quality so I can't make them any smaller.

I have also added the new worldmap to the screenshot section. [Scripting by Sephiroth Spawn]

@ Lust Dragon

I used different parts of ego illustrations and spliced them in photoshop, then recoloured them... I'd have never have been able to find art that matches the battlers so closely otherwise!

 

[Siege]

Sorry to say but for me nothing has changed can still only view screenshots, credits and we need you.

 

[Calibre]

Well I've taken away the majority of images on the front page in favour for text. I've also inserted everything into spoilers, I'd rather it be accessible than attractive. If it still can't be viewed by some people then there is nothing I can do.
