Legacy of Eterna

[hellhound]

History :

"I never thought my own friend could have done something like this... the one friend I had spent my childhood with... why Anna?"

In the Planet of Interia, There was A Continent given the name Eterna, Name of a Goddess who was believed to be watching over the Continent. Legends has it that the Goddess Eterna blessed her Continent with a Divine Scroll, the Scroll of Eterna. It Grants those who have reached Seraphima through Spiritual means a wish. but it strictly only grants a wish to those who have received the Blessings of Eterna in Seraphima (a Celestial and Spiritually evolved Planet). While the Scroll's seal can only be Opened by the powers of a Living Key named the "Dark Eve".

But this is where the story unfolds, There was a greedy Man named Lucifer, he used to be a wise man that was one of the firsts to visit Seraphima and received Eterna's blessings. but then his greed corrupted his mind, he wished to walk amongst the Gods and be a God himself, having the endless power of the Universe. after hearing the legend of the scroll, he immediately parts on a restless search for the Scroll while forming an Evil pact with the demons who shall serve him if he promise to ascend them with him.

Having known it's location, He Waged war to Eterna with an anonymous identity. And in mind, that one day he shall reverse the fabric of Reality with the scroll itself, a reality where Evil can be Gods and where freedom has it's dark meanings.

This game has it's charm, but is riddled with problems.

Usually ships are pointy at the front in order to cut trough water thus encountering less resistance. They aren't rectangular. Wooden ships also aren't gargantuan constructs you can fit multiple houses in. Unless the ship is supposed to be a floating soccer field converted into a freight, there's no reason it should look like it does.

Houses are also way to big, both outdoor and indoor. Take a look inside your own house. You don't have huge empty areas in it, do you? The outdoor mapping isn't any better either. The forests doesn't sell the illusion they are forests and towns are rather dull looking. Take a look at mapping tutorials.

The dialogs involving the princess starts out great, but it doesn't last. It's hard not to take the side of the king. I get the feeling that what the princess is trying to do is supposed to be noble, but it's just sheer stupidity. The king already have competent people looking into the problem.

I quit the game when it turned out that since Serra didn't buy any antidote, Anna can't cure her poison status. Since I had no idea where I would go, who I would have with me and what problems I'll encounter, I saved up most of my money so I would have them when I know what I have to buy. Now I do know, but i can't.

Thanks for the very helpfull infos, well, as for Anna's actions, I think you can say it's sheer stupity, but you could either say curiousity and immaturity, lol...

anywayz, for the Boat, indoor, outdoor and etc. mappings, I'm completely aware they are bad, as usuall, I don't know how to map a boat too... well, I'll try to improve a bit on that part though... lol

well, anyway, when the princess had poison (it's when you were in the dungeon, right?) just walk around and let her die, surely you had bought or found some reviving Items, right? so when she's revived, you can carry on without those annoying poisons, just avoid those poison jelly monsters, or if you encountered them, quickly use skills and spells on them to immediately kill them without moving a single poisonous stuff... lol

bump, srsly, kinda silent in here...

This forum is for completed games and demos that are around thirty minutes long or more. The game does have charm to it, but it is a little cliche; and it seems like you thrown in some random scripts with no real purpose. It's not done though so who knows it might turn out good.

Yeah maybe it's a short game but i like it!

Your game is very cute But the mapping needs some work. The building and areas are too large with too few decorations, and look rushed. They need to be smaller with more detail put in. Many people will attach excessively large maps with bad game design and gameplay, so you might be hindering potential players from trying out your game.
The game in itself has charm, like others have said, so who knows, maybe you will use that charm to give us a complete and attractive game :grin: Good luck!

EDIT: I'm sure you've already found this site, but just in case the tutorials they have on this site are very helpful for mapping

Sorry for very very late reply everyone, and thankyou soo much for the comments!

@muffin: Well, you'd still need rmxp though
@Erlan Ultima: This is in Demo phase yet, but have you finished the whole demo game? then wow!
@Spooky: Thanks, and which random scripts? the menu?
@Exkimo_Kidd: Thanks for the comment! and I hope you understand my ugly mappings, I'm still practicing regarding soo much mapping, like reading tutorials and stuff.

And anyway, the Game's continuation will be excpected once my exams are done (stupid hard exams!) Lol

OK please don't hate me for being the bad guy here but here are my comments:

- Your mapping was OK at the beginning, good at the middle and went bad for some reason... XD
- I see you used many scripts which is OK but you should at least give someone to fix that battlesystem cuz' that text positions are just bad.

- You should remove some windowskins from the options since some of them quite destroy the design of the game with their ugliness. XD

- You should work on your English. I'm not saying I'm better that you since I'm not (its not my mother language). I mean the dialogues and story are fine but there are those tiny word mistakes which just poke me in the eye (maybe I'm the only one with that XD)

So don't get this wrong, I'm not saying it sucks or anything just saying it would be better if you fix these things. ^^

 

[hellhound]

I know I get that alot, thanks for the Advices though! I wish I can assure you that those shall be fixed in the next update, hopefully. XD

Whole demo The demo is the one in the download link right? If yes, I download it at night and play it morning ( because it's a holiday, i PLAY IT AND CAN'T stop because of what? not holiday but I have nothing to do only play this game. I'am even forget my own project ) I finished the demo when afternoon ( maybe, i forget..... ) and guess what, I have 5 - 7 Game over when Facing the Hollow boss.....
My comment to your game
- Mapping is good for me because I'am bad at it
- I have a problem at the battle system you know when the player back after attacking ( Not looking at the enemy ) and the enemy attack sometimes the damage became really big, same as the enemy if we attack it
- cool thing when the party are more than one and ATB meter is full ( minimal two person ) tap space rapidly the person which have full ATB will attack at same time. I like this ha ha

I finish this game with party level 2 - 8. That's why i finished the Demo at a little time
I'am sorry i'am still practicing my English...
Oh and one more thing I like the picture of Stan

Thanks for reading and the demo!

 

[hellhound]

Yes, it's the demo you have downloaded. ^^

And thanks for the Comments about the mappings and battlesystem! ,and wow, I never even really thought that someone would play the game when they don't have anything to do!

As for the battle system where it deals big damage when player is facing back, it's part of it, that's why you'll need to hurry and attack first as fast as you can, and you'll also have the chance to back stab them!

with that aside, I salute you that it took you minimal amount of time to finish the demo! even my friends were having hard time finishing it, it's like about 2 days or something.

Hope to hear more from you soon whenever I release an update!
