[Full Game] Lucid Awakening

[Ganstaquay5000]

Hey sillypie man. Can't saying oh amazing this game is. But there's seem to be another problem.

Not a technical problem, but i'm sorta lost. I just got the ship and I can control it on the world map. But I accdentanly skiped through the previous scene so I have no idea where I'm supose to go.

Please HELP!

Lol thank you.  You have to find a town southwest of Garesh continent.  It's just a town on the water, you'll probably see it.

I added a world map RIGHT before the release...and I think I made it so it's in your inventory.  If it is in there, use it and look for a red dot over a town out on the water a little southwest of Garesh, that's it.  Unfortunately it doesn't show your current location...but you can figure it out :P.

Hey sillypieman,

   Just wanted to congratulate you on making such an awsome game, i liked the ending a lot & am waiting for the sequel weather it be on rmxp or rmvx.

   On a side note i found a couple of bugs that aren't all that disturbing but just thought i'd mention them:

1- When you move the ship to the beginning of the bridge you enter the map with the ship & get stuck.
2- The "Death" Icon is missing for Ariana's skill, but i just pasted a png with the name "Death" & it continued.

   I wish you the best of luck in making your new game & life in general  :smile:

 

[Ganstaquay5000]

I know that part. I just finish sealing the gate there.

I don't don't where to go after that.  :sad: I'm sad to say that I'm lost.

 

[sillypieman]

@BlackWings: Holy crap you finished it already O_o?  Lol.  Thank you very much!  What was finishing play time?  I'm just wondering what people get, because I got 6 hours...but I realized that that is with me knowing everything about it :P...so yeah, I want to know what normal peoples' play time is.

Thanks, I didn't know about that bridge glitch.  Does it crash if when Ariana knows Death and you try to go to her skill menu?

You could tell just from the ending that I'm planning a sequel couldn't you lol.  I left it very open ended and all.  Did you read the poem at the end of the credits?  That's kind of a...I dunno...a "prelude" or something to the sequel.

@Gantasquay5000: What Gate did you just seal?  If you sealed the one on top of the mountain you need to go to a big door that appears west of Maris.  Use the world map item and look for a red dot bigger than the others, near the center of all the continents, just west of Maris.  Let me know if you still don't know what to do.

 

[Ganstaquay5000]

I never seal one on a mountain. I sealed the gate in the fisher type town. You know, In the sewers.

 

[sillypieman]

Oh okay.  Well if you just sealed that Gate, you need to go to the big continent just south of Maris (you'll need to ride all the way around it to the bottom of it where there's a dock).

 

[Ganstaquay5000]

Okay thanks

 

[Ganstaquay5000]

Thanks alot. I just saw Garett. I can't wait for him to join the group

Accidental double post?  I don't care, but mods will get on you if you double post.

BTW everyone, I wrote up a character synopsis thing complete with skills by level and my opinion on them and all that stuff.  I just don't really know where/how to upload it haha.  I think one of the site managers of RPG Revolution will post it up on my game page (link in the first post), so yeah.  It'll probably be there.

 

[Ganstaquay5000]

I can't beat the second part of the final boss fight.

You're amazing at story writing. I saw the post about Lucid Awakening 2. Glad your making on XP!

This games is amazing. In my opinion, this games comes extremely close the old school hit game (which by the way is my favorite in the world) Final Fantasy 7.

Anyway, got any tips on the second part of the final boss fight?

 

[sillypieman]

Hmm...would you mind editing out anything about Zeke that you have in your post...that's kind of a spoiler lol.

Yeah, I probably made it too hard haha.  I actually did all the enemies stats, skills, etc. for the final dungeon (including the last boss) all like the day before I released my game, so it's possible that they are a little unbalanced.  I tried my hardest though.

Okay, last boss.  I would suggest having Damian, Glow, Leandra, and Zeth.  Have Damian keep up Strength on Leandra, and have him also keep Faith and Agility on the whole party.  Have Glow basically just constantly heal (use whole party healing) and OCCASIONALLY cast some light magic if you are like maxed out on health.  Have Leandra either Berserk, or what I would suggest--have her use Holy Sword on whatever part you're focusing on.  And for Zeth, either have him constantly nuke with either his strongest spells (but make sure Damian keeps Faith on him).

Now I would suggest focusing all your attacks on the arm that is putting status effects on you (I THINK it is the one on your right...but it's probably called left arm because it's HIS left arm...nm lol).  Then take out the other arm which is casting the elemental magic on you.  Then take out the head which is doing nasty regular attacks on your party.  THEN take out the core, which really, by itself, is pretty weak.  Just have Damian keep the buffs I mentioned earlier on everyone, and if no buffs are needed just have him use Slash on the part you are focusing on at the moment.  You could have Zeth use his strongest multi-attack spell, but I would highly suggest having him nuke with one of his strongest single target spells (remember to keep buffs on!).  Also, when you get status effects, I would suggest having the character with the status effects just use a Homeostasis Potion on himself instead of wasting someone else's turn doing it.

Actually, it would probably be a good idea to keep Ariana in your party in place of Leandra in my strategy, that way she can take care of the status effects instead of having to use items to do it.

You should be able to take care of him, if not...just level up I suppose.  But try my strategy.

And yeah, please edit out the parts of your post that are spoilers...you know the ones lol.


==================================
Character Synopsis uploaded!  Check the first post.

 

[BlackWings]

   Hmm .. i guess 8 & a half hours, but i finished it with a playtime of a little over 10 hours (i liked leveling up & seeing if there are anymore skills)

   Yes it does crash if Ariana learns her Death skill & you go to her skill menu, but then i just put a "Death.png" in Graphics/Icons Folder.

   Yes I could tell you were planning a sequel & I like the fact that you left it open ended, it kinda makes you look forward to a sequel while at the same time it IS an ending so you didn't leave us hanging with a "oh c'mon! I can't wait to see what's gonna happen next".

   Oh & while I'm at it the skill "Cure 2" for Ariana doesn't work at all, but that didn't really bother me. & after the Poem the screen just goes black & you still have access to the menu ... i mean you could've made it go to the "Game Over" screen & then the "Title" screen.

   If there're any more questions feel free to ask & sorry for the late reply, it seems the time difference between us is a lot.

 

[sillypieman]

Crap.  Well I'll put up the icon for Death on the first post and tell people to put it there.

Yeah, I know about the Cure 2 glitch...since it's encrypted there's nothing I can really do about that...so I dunno haha.

How the credits script works, you can't make it wait until the credits are over to do an event command...sorry about that.

Edit: Look  on the first post, I put a link to the character synopsis.  It will be REALLY helpful to use while playing the game.

 

[Ganstaquay5000]

Thank you so much for the help on beating the final boss.

I just beat the game I couldn't be more upset.

I mean I love the ending, and It was amazing. But it  made me sad . I love your game. If you made this a real game in america, I will the first person to get it.

I love this game and I don't think I'll ever play another Rpg game like this.

I always be there waiting for lucid awakening part 2. Cause I know it's going to be a class SS game just like part one.

By the way, My play time was around 7 hours and a half.

 

[sillypieman]

Thank you!  It's overwhelming to get good comments like this lol.  (In a good way :P)

I'm making up a "trailer" for Lucid Awakening 2.  It will just be in the form of an RMXP game, and it's just some glimpses of characters and some (very few) dialogue.  It's kind of set with a song too.  I'll upload it tonight probably.

 

[S3nkai]

it had a difference between file from filefront (8.85Mb)and file from freewebs (8.82Mb)! Which file I should use?

 

[sillypieman]

I think the only difference is that the smaller one is zipped.  So they're the same, just whichever one you want to use :P.  The freewebs one is a direct download though so you won't have to go to the filefront page first.

So yeah, they're the same, just use whichever one you want.

 

[youji69]

dude your game's bad ass!  i just started playing it, but the story seems pretty cool and deep.  hope to beat this and then wait for the sequel!

 

[sillypieman]

Thank you ^_^

Edit: Has anyone used my Character Analysis?  I'm just wondering cuz I want to know if people found it helpful and all.
