I'm almost done eventing for the demo~
Final Fantasy Essence - New Trailer and Screenshots!
- Thread starter Celesinator
- Start date
harbino, do you ever post saying anything other than "where's the demo"?
I'm not a fan of Final Fantasy fans in general, but the SNES graphics were cute and the games themselves were mostly solid. as long as you let this thing be its own game, without bending over backwards to try and make it a homage, this should work out to be pretty interesting. custom graphics and music are always a plus.

I'm trying to finish as fast as I can while trying to make it good ^_^;;; Sorry guys!
I've come across this thread probably a dozen times now, yet I haven't commented on it. Shocking.
I love that you've gone to the old school FF graphics. I think they're just awesome. Definitely brings back some nostalgia, and I will most definitely try out your demo when it gets posted.
I just gotta keep my fingers crossed that this is more of a stand alone game than a fangame. I'm sure it will be fun either way, but it would go down a few notches if all of a sudden I feel like I'm replaying some old FF game.
Good luck on this project.

Updated world map and screenshots!
Nostalgia strikes again...
but in a fresh way. The game LOOKS nice.
Although I did find a few things I'd like to ask about:
1) You know how in the story info you said a man named Dice Quaros was "infused with essence power. What exactly does that do?
2) Does WEAPON stand for anything or was that just for dramatic effect?
Other than that I like the way this project is going, and Im a huge ff fan so do a good job.

The Essence is like Materia. But it's more extreme because you can't remove it and it does give you some mental problems.
WEAPON was just for effect. I didn't notice it myself.
Thanks ^_^

I sprited Jessen! Iono how he looks and Lex MAY resprite him. He's gone away for Thanksgiving. So how is he?
Nice work there Celes. At this rate you'll have a demo out before I do. I'm fascinated to see how it's going to play out using the old school Final Fantasy style. By the way how comes you're never on AIM anymore? One quickly question, about Keira, is she a weapon or a "WEAPON" as in the Final Fantasy sense?
Edit: Scratch that I read back a few posts and realised it didn't mean anything. Although it would be interesting would in not? :wink:

I could make it mean something yes yes ^_^. Essence's story has evolved a lot and maybe I could add something somewhat like that. Oh and I am on AIM. I have you on there but I changed my AIM name. There was this stalker dude who wanted to get in my pants <_< Pedophiles. I'm celeslovevi.

Thank you thank you =D! I wish Lex could sign on so I can forc- I mean get him to make some battle sprites for me =3. I really want to show off the battle system. Btw guys I'm deffinatly not going to have this demo out by before Christmas, but it shouldn't be too long. Probably in January... I'm not going to give any more release dates because I can't keep one. I feel like Nintendo.

I'm still looking forward to this game, more so now as I really like Storm's Theme and the look of the game from the video.
Now, I know you said that the Battle Theme was still only Beta, but I have some issues, I don't like how it sounds rather slow paced to me, when I get into a battle, my thought is "Oh shit. monsters KILL!" and that music doesn't seem to really reflect it, it seemed more like a Theme Song at the beginning, and I think it should be sped up to a faster pace, but ignoring that, it's still a good song.
