Dragon Soul (demo)

***UPDATE***-Version 2.0 (Below)

I am creating a game called dragon soul below is a bit about it and the download to play.
Please reply with comments and problem's

-Introduction-

Dragon Soul is about a man named Tidus (FFX :biggrin: ) who is heading home to his home city only to find a man named Kain standing around. Kain tell's him about himself and join's the team, both Tidus and Kain leave and travel to the Easlevane frest outside of Acrason City, they meet a man named Neo and are told t go south where they meet Aidan an acrason soldier, Aidan is angry at kain for doing something wrong in a war and they end up fighting. They then go into Acrason city and speak to the king who tell's them to go to Acrason Valley and help Aidan meanwhile Neo run's off and Kain and Tidus are shoved into an adventure of Fight's, murder, friendship, betrayal, and dragon's
will you be the Great Dragon Soul Bearer? (I haven't put this part into the game yet but it will have to do with killing elemental dragon's)
Tidus is just exploring in the beggining (has nothing else to do)
Kain is unknown to Tidus but they are both going towards the same location so they join.
A lot is found out about character's uring the story.
The plot is mainly about going after Neo but stretches into a big adventure of thing's not even having to do with Neo.

Oh dear. Ok, where to start...

Right, for starters, your story is not really a story. Why was Kain standing around? Is that really going to happen in real life? Why do the 'team' go to fight dragons and stuff? To what gain? What the hell is the 'Great Dragon Soul Bearer'? See what I mean? Not really a story. Make sure you have a plot to follow, rather than just buuilding a game around a cliche style quest.

Secondly, your mapping is really quite bad. Have a look at some mapping tutorials, such as Tindy's, which is in the tutorial forum. You've missused the tiles in loads of places.

Finally, how is 'Sword's and Armour's', 'Tidus lv1-10 hp, 5sp lv 2-21 hp, 11 sp', and 'In battle bar's over character's head's for easy strategy planning' content? Just wondering.
 
Oh, dear... that is quite some bad example for a project discussion topic (not the worst I have ever seen though)

Let's take a deeper look at this one...
Your story is somewhat... strange... Why is the main protagonist from Final Fantasy, when your game has nothing to do with it? You could easily make your own character and use this one.
I don't get why he joins up with some guy he just met the other minute. And why are they heading to some strange town, when your protagonist just got back to his hometown?
And what the heck is a Dragon Soul Bearer?

Your Contents... Aren't contents at all...
I sure hope your RPG has Weapons and Armors, since most have, don't they?
Secret Places and Treasures... Wow... Everybody can do those, can't they?
Actors having different stats from each other and getting better by leveling up... is quite normal for an RPG as well, so why do you tell us?
Just a few of those but you get the picture...

Your Screenshots... Honestly your maps are terrible. Look up some tutorials about mapping.

I won't download the demo, since I refuse to play games, where no effort was put in.

I would say you are just trolling, but since you made a script request earlier... I am afraid you are serious...

Hope this helps

yeah it is very bad lol.. but i kinda just started making it (it was my first game) then as i got better i kinda just went back and changed event's and never really changed map's. As for plot i'll edit that.. and mapping, i am not really good at the 1 level 2 level and 3 level thing lol i just consider 1 to be floors and 2 to be like things on the ground and 3 for like tree's and walls. But thanks for that I realize i messed up on a lot of stuff lol.

Lol... I think I just beat you to it, Dalton. We have nearly exactly the same comments.

Yeah, and you posted while I was still writing, so 1 point for you.

That's why we have tutorials. Look for Tindy's like fox suggested. It helped me out quite a lot when I was just a beginner at mapping. Nowadays people even say that my maps are good ;)
 
lol again.

Also, tidus, once you've looked at some tutorials, you might consider posting them in the mapping improvment thread, then you can get some comments to improve. Hope that helps.
