I try to summarize the main plot as short as possible, so you can read it, without getting bored.

Professor Scum builds a machine to let his boss (Villain) go back to the future.
When they test the machine, it doesn't work right and melts the year 537 and 2037 together and creates a whole new time zone. Some parts of the world look like in the year 537, some like 2000 and some look like they were in between the those times. People find themselves in different places and positions. People that were sitting in their cars, are now king of a big empire or knights and people that where kings in the year 537 are now on the streets of a big city from the 2000s with a gun in their hand. Everything is just totally mixed up. most people don't recognize, that something happened, but some do.

Madeleine
Madeleine is an adept with little magic skills from the year 537. As the game starts, she's on the way to the temple of the sunsisters to get trained. She always travels with her bodyguard Armadon. She is a very annoying and naive character. She gets easily afraid and bitches around alot. As the Collaps of Time happens, she finds herself in a dark forest, alone, without Armadon on her side. Even though she gets frightened, she starts to look for him.

Ash
Ash is a modern but lazy student from the year 2037. He just started studying hard, because he wants to pass the final tests at school.
He's lazy, but humorous and a good friend you can rely on. His parents died in a car accident and he,as their only child, inherited their money and their big house. As the Collaps of Time happens, he wasjust in his cellar making food. Afterwards he finds himself in a pub in a small town.

Professor Scum
Professor Scum is the inventor of the time machine from the year 2037. He is a genius, even thoug he made a mistake with his machine. He just wanted to teleport his boss Villain to the future, but the machine was installed wrong and caused the Collapse of Time. Professor Scum has a light green skin color, because he has never seen the sunlight in his entire life. That is because he is allergic to sunlight.

Villain
Villain is a very rich buisness-guy, who wants to become famous. So he made Professor Scum inventing a time machine. Villains plan was to travel back to the past and impress the people with his knowledge from his time. His aim was to let all people see his name in the history books as the biggest inventor and prophet of all times. In the past he would be able to tell everybody,what's going to happen next. After the Collaps of Time he is... (I don't say it now :P)

-Cybersams Battle System (Side view)
-AMS in use. (is this still a feature?)
-My very own style of Tilesets... ->see screenshots
-custom menu (not started to make one yet)
-Original Charsets (based on HalfKaizers)
-Even though it's not a real fun game, there are some funny scenes in it (hate to say it, cuz now everybody will say "it wasn't funny!")
-NO lovestory between the male and the female main character (this is my favourite feature :D )

This is Professor Scum's lab, including his time machine.

This is the menu-style (The Faceset is just a placeholder. I'm drawing original faces myself right now...):

This screen is just from the intro. It's just to proof, that I really make this game in english language :D (shux, there is a spelling mistake in it :D sorry ^^)

If you want to see more Screens, there are some in the "Official Screenshot Thread". I will add some in this thread, too.

There are some problems:
-Do all the pictures in this thread work? I don't know :D
-EDIT: I'm now doing the game in english. And only in english.
-My english isn't the best, so hopefully you have been able to read and understand everything. If you didn't understand a thing, pleas tell me.
-I'm not very good in spriting, but I practice a lot.
-Because I do this game with HKs, there is a lot of spriting work...

This game is totally nutty looking. When seeing your shots in the screen thread, I thought you were just gonna make another generic fantasy game but time travel? A melding of 2 different periods? Good stuff. Weird and kooky and possibly great, hope you make your deadline.

 

[Danny]

Yes its a very interesting storyline, it's sounds good. I think you did a good job on basing your female character in Keele, you definetely made him more girlish, mainly in the face/hair.

You need to fix your title screeny.

You need to fix your title screeny.

I know, it's the old version and still in german. When I've finished the new (english) one, I'll put it in there.

Thank you for your comments. I'm really working hard (especially spriting characters -.-' ~why isn't there an RTP based on half kaizers??~)

I just finished the whole forest that will be seen in the demo. I'm currently working on a pub wich was a gay-bar back in the future. In the molten time it's just a pub, but the owner still thinks it's a gay-bar. ^^
The scene in the pub will lead to the second boss fight (with a guest appearance ). And that's gonna be the grande final for the Demo version.

I love the title screen... and the quirkyness of this game... it looks pretty good, some of the Chars look a little flat (But you may want that look, just my opinion)...

The idea of two time zones melded into one is fantastic... Brilliant and very creative... I like the odd looking machine you have with all the lights...

Loads of work has gone into making this... I hope you finish it...

 

[Sol_Fury]

Very interesting. The story is pretty quirky, and I like the villain's motive - fame rather than outright world conquest, it seems. The whole timeslip thing is very cool, and I love the way everything looks.
Keep up the good work.

 

[arcthemonkey]

Looks nice :D

Your topic has been moved to the main project forum!

It seems like the Demo will really be realeased on August 31st or Sep. 1st. The only things that are missing are a proofreader and one Charset, Green raven is working on ^^
But chances are good that you can play the Demo on the promised date.
In this demo you can see the complete introduction. The story will be explained and you get to know the most important characters.
You will probably need about 20 minutes to play through this short Demo.
There will be one Bossfight and 10 Secrets to find (you won't find them all *devilish laugh*).
The menu, the characters and the title / game over screen will be the versions, I'm going to use in the finished game. The only things that are not ready in the Demo are the Facesets (cuz I gotta draw them...) and the real battlers for the BS (cuz I gotta make them...). But I think that's not too bad, since there aren't too many battles in the Demo ;D
But I apologize for the dialogues with the wrong facesets! I know that those facemaker faces look gay. They will be changed in the finished game, I promise! ^^
Thanks for all C&C so far!

 

[JB N AW 6000]

WOW! This looks great! I wish you all the best with this! BTW: Great Titlesets!
Mabie, When we have both finnished our projects, you could let me edit a few of them and use them for my own game?

Just wondering.

 

[Sapphire]

Demo's ready to be played.
Things you don't have to critisize, because they wil change as quick as possible:
-Villain won't be Tai from Digimon in the final version. But since Green raven's not finished my request yet, he's the placeholder :D
-The facesets and battlers will be changed.
-The battle system isn't done yet.
-Title and menu are probably not the final version, but you can comment on them, if you want, cuz I'll maybe keep them...
-I'm not sure about the Music, but I like it so far

-Please read the ReadMe, to avoid errors.
-You are allowed to use all the Resources in the Game, but be sure to give fair credits. The people who made something are in the first post. Everything else is made by me. ~If you find something of your stuff in the game but you don't find your name in the first post, please tell me! I will check it then.~
-Don't forget to install the fonts.
The Demo's to show you the Graphic-Style and the beginning of the story.

~~I'm very excited to see, whether it works on your PCs, cuz there have been some trouble with that in the past... it worked on all the German PCs I've tested it on, but not on every american/english...In the readme are maybe some helpfull tipps to avoid errors...~~

another important thing to avoid errors: in the Game.ini , change the "Library:100J.dll" to "Library:102E.dll"
