Sacred Lands

My Game Sacred Lands in short is a story about the fight for surival as a mysterious man trys to use the blood of a young girl to Merge Our world with his own. Starts of in Iraq (for now) Where they uncover a cave and release this man. Story line still changes from time to time but the basic comcept remains.


It is often said that heroes do not choose their destinies
In a moment of truth they will rise to meet the challenge
That when the darkness is greatest they break free of their limitations
Then nothing is impossible

Story Line:
When a dying Necromancer struggles to keep himself alive by feeding off the souls of others, the people of Foresca bann him to the Isle of Kinos where he will live out his days and die, but now the Necromancer found a new supply of souls to steals a way he could live forever, by opening a gateway into another world....our world.

Chapter One: Dimentions
Life as a solider is always the same, you wake up before the sun begins to rise, you maybe do some morening exercises just to keep you fit of course, you shower and shave then get dressed to stand guard untill the sun goes down, unless the enemy beyond the wall gets bored then the sky is filled with Tracer as if it was the forth of July. For the past few weeks everything has been quiet lately, and all you want to do is just go home. Once you reliefs comes you go by the chow hall for a quick snack then head off to bed.
You close your eyes hoping that when you open them up you will not be in this place anymore, that you be waking up in your bed eating a nice home cooked meal, and watching TV with you brothers and sisters, but of course this will not happen, not untill the war is over with. *Dream* A bright light covers you around and all you hear is a voice "They are coming, they know where you are..." Next thing you know you hear the alarm going off. YOu wake up in a hurry and gather up your gear and your weapon. A formation is formed up by the gates. You commander informs you that an off site is being attack, and your team is going out there to check out the mess.
******
You exit the truck to find bodys of you comrades already covering the floor. In the distance you can hear the voices of your enemys, your squad rushes upon the wall just beyond the enemy camp. As you peep over you see the weirdest dreams, You enemys are hovering arounda fire as if calling to there gods. Your men take place adn get ready to open fire. You trip on a rock alerting the emeny of your presence. They turn, you and your men aim. The enemy starts chanting and your people freeze they are not armed, and it would not be right to kill unarmed people, just then they start to glow and start shooting beams from there hands, One man scrams in pain as he goes up in flames, and you open fire.
******
When the smoke starts to settle and the screaming as stop the remaining of your men approch the enemy camp with a steady eye in all direction. You hear a low deep mumbleing the enemys leader lies with his eyes wide open staring at you. He Hands raises and so does your gun, he holds out a Medalion and shouts at the top of his lungs a foriegn laug, you turn away not know why and a bright light consumes you and your people. And then the world goes dark.

---Gameplay---

I am still thinking and browsing fourms for ideas on a battle system that will fit this game. I was looking in to a "Tales of" Battle System but have not found anything i liked.



---Team openings---

If you want to help, PM or post here. I am looking for people who can
Be on atleast once a week
Have access to e-mail or IM
Have example of there work
Would not mind working with someone deployed over seas(Iraq)
I am gone from time to time but i always come back, being in the military you never know what to expect.


STORYWRITERS
Even thought I can come up with some great ideas, I have the problem with putting them into words and showing everyone the way i see them.

MAPPERS
As you can tell my skills in mapping lack a bit, if anyone is interested in touching up my maps a bit let me know.

CODERS
I have no RGSS skills what so ever, I can edit simple things but not enough skills to do what i really want.

ARTISTS
I got Sprites and Tilesets covered. If you would like to help draw up Player portraits that would be great.

MUSICIANS
At the moment I have not been using music, trying to keep the game as original as possible

Here are a few SS that i could find of hand. Plan on Making Bios of the chars soon and will post them up!

great story and art. This is like a fantasy version of the current Iraq war? Are you a soldier, or actually from Iraq?
 
I downloaded the demo and I must say, I'm not too impressed. Sure the graphics look good, but the mapping is not that great. Also the side view walk looks silly and incomplete. However, I really liked the game's style, so keep working!
 
Yeah I know. Still working not really good at anything besides just coming up with the idea. :D but I am slowly learning. This is my 1st game so can not blame me to much but before i release the real demo i will make sure to have those things fixed

This is excellent.. Though, your mapping needs a little touching up. Other than that, this game is very good and I can't wait for it to be complete. Your graphics are just amazing. Good luck
 
Thanks, If anyone is interested in help me map a bit, kinda touch up what i do. It be very helpful.

Right now WOrking out a few bugs and CHangeing the Menu and Battle system around a bit. Adding Music, SFX and animtaion for the chars /9When the char is knocked out he is KNOCKED out instead of ust laying on his face) If you have any other suggestion on what i could change to make it better feel free to let me know.
