Redemption

[fliky1118]

This is a new game called Redemption. It is VERY WIP... just started a couple days ago, working a couple hours a day... So here's the basic info.

Spoiler: Story

Takes place in the land of Cockaigne, which was a perfect place until people started to become corrupt. An evil king took over enslaving many and killing more. Only one pure man was left standing: an oracle named Jacob. The king killed Jacob, but before he died, Jacob foresaw the redemption of the world, a task to be taken on by a teenage boy and three companions. The game starts off where the boy's story begins.

Spoiler: Characters

Not entirely sure of all of the main characters yet...

The Main Character
No definite name because the player enters it in.
A teenage boy who is a little bit unsure of himself. He doesn't think that he is capable of redeeming the world, but he'll try because it's his destiny. He is a good friend, but sometimes thinks only of himself

Lawrence
The main character's best friend. No matter what the main character does Lawrence will always stick with him. A little eccentric at times, Lawrence proves to be more of an asset than anyone, including himself, would have ever thought.

Sarah
A Mage, and one of the best in her school. Sarah is the main character's older sister. She attends magic school away from home, but she is often very homesick. She is very nurturing and protective of the main character, which proves to be a good thing, but also a fault later in the story.

Spoiler: Features

Hoping to incorporate a fishing system that could be important to some side quests in the story. Comprehensive bank system (very easy). Not sure about the battle system yet...  I wish I could do something similar to Tales of Symphonia, but I'm not sure something like that exists for RMXP. Some other little things that will add a professional feel to the game.

Spoiler: Gameplay

At this point, walk around... fight stuff... idk, a typical RPG. VERY early stages of the game, so I expect it to be a little more unique when it's done.

Spoiler: Screens

Why did you post your game when you've just started on it and you don't know where it'll go?  Everything (story, characters, gameplay, etc.) is overly basic with nothing the least bit interesting.  Anyone can make a game like this, but every amature game maker should want something original and/or not so easily replicable.  Plan your game out more.

PS- Project Disscussion is meant to advertise/show-off your game.  You hardly have a game, and apparently want feedback, since you asked for it.  If you want people to comment on your game and help you (in a sense) better form it, you may want to ask a mod to move this to Early Project Development.  You registered yesterday, so I'm saying this in case you didn't know.  Best of luck.

Thats all I had to read. Totally unoriginal. Also looking over your characters this story fell into the trap of every cliche "jRPG teen save the world" idea.

Your mapping is very bland too, and the screens dont show much.

So far this doesnt look very appealing.
