Download the Teaser Trailer


Note: Before anyone panics, I'm not giving up my previous project, Yuugiou: Egyptian Dreams. This is just a side project for me to do when I'm stuck in that game. Now that that's out of the way...

THE STORY
Lazurus City, home of the greatest magi teachers of the world, and prone to their own brand of gossip. Now, there is a rumor going about town; one of a young girl that heralds the coming of destruction. No village she has set foot in has been left standing. No living man knows her face. No one even knows if she causes the destruction herself... or if something else is at work.

All anyone knows, is to beware the girl that says on a clear day...

"A storm is coming..."

THE CHARACTERS
Name: Alice
Age: ???
A mysterious young woman that speaks little and associates with people even less. There's something unusual about her... almost as if she isn't entirely human...

Name: Saki
Age: 22
A college student studying magi power at Lazurus City. He is smart and witty, though tends to be easily annoyed by people.

Name: Chris
Age: 100
A young half elf that tags along with Saki whenever he's near Lazurus City. He tends to be a bit childish, despite his age.

Name: Kurea
Age: Won't reveal.
A strong Celric that's rather... untraditional. She uses her womanly wiles and charm to heal injured party members and confuse enemies.

Name: Alnolus and Snolus
Age: Hard to tell
Two demons that also wander the land, much like the girl from the rumors does, only they're destruction seems outright deliberate. Alice seems to know them, though they're not on friendly terms.

Name: ???
Age: ???
A mysterious voice that appears sometimes along with Alnolus and Snolus. Alice does not like this voice...

FEATURES
* AMS by Slipknot
* RTAB + add-ons by Cogwheel
* Actor train by Fukuyama-san
* Prexus' CMS
* Star Ocean status edit
* Raziel's status bars.

OTHER INFORMATION
* As I mentioned previously, this is just going to be a side project, so I'm not going to go nearly as insane over it as I do my main game project.
* I'm just using graphics that are readily avalible. I know that's probably going to hurt the project, but oh well. I stress enough over Egyptian Dreams. XD
* Hooray for creepy storylines! This is a very dark story, as the roots of it are centered in death, disease, and destruction.
* I will have screenshots soon; I plan on working on it heavily today.
 
Thanks Rye. :3

Updated the first post; sorry about this morning, I wanted to get it done before I fell asleep, but I ended up smacking my head against the keyboard. :<
 
Soley the part that says; A storm is coming interested me. The trailer was silent, and despite the pretty text box and title screen, nothing grabbed my attention.

A messenger of destruction could evolve in an intersting plot, but without knowing how you approach this, I cannot tell wether this goes for your game.
 
To my non-religious brain, Lazarus just speaks Porcupine Tree to me... and I beleive Endless River is the name of a ride at a water park I live near. But aside from that, the premise looks cool. I especially like how you set up the relationship between Snolus and Alnolus, the voice, and Alice. I'm downloading the teaser right now. I'll tell you what I think when I finish it.

What a nice teaser. Small but effective. I'm sticked to this.
If you put voices, that would improve the mood. But it's good as it is.

I'm not so sure about voices. I've never tried putting voices in, and I think it would be an unnecessary amount of space for something your imagination can easily come up with as you read. :\ I'll have to think about it; maybe post a poll or something.
