DISCLAIMER and Content Warning:
First of all other than fantasy violence, blood and mild language this game also contains non-sexual nudity and is recommended for mature audiences. If you are offended by this then please DO NOT PLAY this game or REPLY TO this post or COMMENT.


I REALLY hope this is okay with the mods. I would have asked but I didn't feel like waiting for an answer. Don't get me fro this please or I hope not. I was already nervous about posting this. I just wanted to share the demo of remake.

About the original Eternal Destiny:




This is a remake of a complete game I made a few years back. I did not redo it exactly how it was. I chose to remake it because I felt I could do better and I got better ideas. I took peoples advice on how to make it better. Right now this is a demo of the remake. I remade it with RPG Maker VX Ace for more script and mapping options.

Please note this is the best I can explain it without too many spoilers. I am not good at explaining my stories.

Graphics:
The Luna Engine Graphics and window skin are from the premade factory demo I bought with Luna Engine and were made by Archeia and Caz I think.

The cut scene style was inspired by Phantasy Star 4 it was my friend’s idea to make them smaller.

Mack Characters and Mack Character Generator

Inquistor’s Tilesesets

Cool Text logo generator site for the title words

Also I did not make the background of the title screen I just resized it and pasted my character with in it. So if anyone knows who made the original title image please let me know so I can credit them.

Music:

I think it was made by Tukito. The site was Japanese and if anyone knows for sure who made the music please let me know so I can give the right person credit.
Known issues:
There may be grammar and spelling errors that I missed but I tried very hard to go through and find them all. Also there is a part in the game where I forgot something was mentioned earlier and didn’t realize it until I uploaded that so hopefully everyone could look passed that. It has been fixed already.

When healing outside of battle the selection curser is bigger than the menu for some reason. It has magic on the menu marked as physical and special marked as magic for some reason. Also there is no indication of who's turn it is during battle for some reason so just look at the skills when the command comes up to see who's turn it is. I am using Luna Engine and I am unsure how to fix these three errors so if anyone knows how I can fix it let me know please.




Special thanks to lianderson for touching up two of the story events.

Played to the end of the demo.

The scenes were a little rushed but that's where you go back and make revisions. You're sorta pulling a rabbit out of a hat. Feeding us knew information as it becomes relevant. "By the way, we're dragons so we have powers." or how it's only stated that his father was killed by an Anigma Beast. So the revelation that his brother was the beast and is secretly alive doesn't have any real impact because we didn't even know he existed, not to mention assumed dead. (Unless you read the synopsis before downloading the game; I never do)

I remember the story you wrote before. Sengal is a lot more developed in this; in the beginning at least. It feels like after a certain point the personalities drop off and it becomes all about the game objectives and their motivations start getting muddy. That tough guy act, despising weakness, should be consistent throughout the story (or until a turning point).

Design wise. There's no unity. No sense of identity. It's a gaudy mix of tilesets and font choices. I know people will applaud the use of custom graphics. But I don't think you are using it well. There's a lot of design principles you could apply but I wouldn't know where to begin. That's really something you'll have to pick up on your own over time. If you want to use inquisitor's tileset, look for his sample maps so you know how houses are suppose to be constructed. You're only using part of the wall. Imo, his tiles have limited uses so it's probably not the best choice in the long run because it doesn't match anything else.
And even if nothing matches, I think you should aim to utilize the resources in the best possible way.
 
It's okay I'm going to go back and touch those and to be gravely honest I don't think there is anything wrong with my graphics or art I will not change them and I think I am using them well. Sorry if that's mean or harsh but I want to keep it the way I like it. But I do agree I need to revise a few things that is why my friend is helping me with the game. He did a few of the beginning scenes. My mind kind of went blank so sorry about that but that's what revising is for. Thank you for your feedback and it is still in development.
 
I just want to let everyone know that I updated the demo. However if you played til the end of the first demo you need to start over because I completely changed what happened on the ship if you got that far.

Also for those who might find the Shrine of Lore confusing:

There is a secret door in the study just go up to the chain thingy on the wall facing up and press the key.
 
I am terribly sorry for the double post. I just want to let everyone know that I had to re upload the demo because there was a part of the game that keep freezing on my friend.
 

Thank you for viewing
