TECH DEMO ON FRIDAY
I am going to release a Tech Demo version of Lost Fantasy on Friday 22nd September. I say "Tech Demo" because it will simply be to test the game systems such as the Hud, the battle system, the quest system, and other things.
Why?
Well, I find it hard to keep deadlines really. I think to myserlf "Right... I'll finish the Hud later and work on something else" and then never get around to finishing the Hud or whatever I was doing. So, by setting a release date for the Tech demo, I'll actually have a reason to finish the systems and then I can get on with making the actual first version of the game.
What will it feature?
The demo will have one map. Yes, one small map. On this map will be several enemies to fight, one or two shops, an example guildhouse with password, and maybe several spots to train the non-combat skills. There will also be test quests, with very simple goals just to test the quest system and such.
Info
Lost Fantasy (Or Project LF) is an online game made using RMXP and Netplay+.
This is not an Identikit RPG, a lot of hard work has been put into it so far.
Story
Lost Fantasy is set in the world of Afar. Through many previous games this world has been shaped and I now have a clear view of what the land is like (The Chronicles of Afar game was never finished unfortunetely).
100 years ago...
Magic was always a great sight in the world of Afar. Wizards and summoners who had trained in the finer arts of magic were often called in to entertain at parties and gatherings, but they also had a more serious role to play. Dark mages, specialising in the Dark Arts of magic, often tried to threaten towns and cities with plots of destruction and despair. They rarely ever got very far however, as their numbers were few... But then the Magi came. The Magi tribe, a clan of Dark Mages, wanted to find a way to bring a "summon" (a being or demon that can be summoned using a ritual to do as the caster wishes) to take over the capital city of Western Afar, the aptly named "Capitol". their plan succeeded- too well. They opened a mystic portal in the far north of the land and out came many monsters and deadly beasts, as well as summons. The last remaining Magi were either wiped out, or became demonic beings, pure evil at heart with no soul.
The lands of the north are now known as the "Fire Fields", and the area surrounding them is soon becoming contaminated with monsters and beasts. More have travelled all over the world, but the closer one gets to the Fire Fields, to the core of all the evil in this world, the more powerful and deadly the monsters and beasts seem to become.
Graphics
Graphics are at the moment made by REFMAP, (First Seed Material). They have been resized and remade (it's in the terms of use, don't worry) to fit RMXP.
Commercial?
Most probably there will be both a free and a paid version to Lost Fantasy.
Systems
At the moment the following custom systems are in place:
-Pets (By myself) (soon to be pet pvp when the N+ PvP package is released)
-Shrubbery creation system (er... stupid Knights of Ni... they made me say it!)
-Quest log
-Custom menu with character sheet
-Custom Hud
-Skills system
-Guilds system
Other systems not made by me include:
-Action battle system (By Near Fantastica)
-Trading
-Soon to be player versus player
-Chat system (editted by me)

If you wonder why I keep saying "Myself" instead of "Me" it's so you don't get confused between Me and Meâ„¢.
Release date
