I had never gotten familair with sandfall to be honest, now I've read it, things seem pretty sweet about it to me :D I can't wait to see progress on the battle system ^_^
 
Alright finally got around to checking out your game here. So sounds pretty intresting so far. Your world that you've created reminds me something of a post apocalyptic road warrior movie of the sorts. Seems like it's kinda dangerous with little govermnt. Nice.

Your mapping from that once screen shot looks pretty nifty. I like the idea of pit fights but how are these done? The audience seems a little small or does the pit change depending on the town? I guess I'm kinda thinking along the lines of a coliseum... unless this is a more shady activity where the audience is little because it's illegal and all...

Intresting that you decided to do your topic through Ice's POV. Are you going to do this throughout the game? That might be an intresting touch since I hear he's your villian. But a little nit-pick on your writing here: "not only for the light color of my hair but for the cold stare in my eyes" I dunno seems kinda strange for a person to mention they have a cold stare. That's usually an observation by another person not by one's self ya know? Just to let you know... I'm not sure how much practice you've done on POV writing either or if it's even important. :)

Well I'll linger around and be sure to come back when you have more done.
 
Yeah- I was planning on having the different Pit Fight crowds change depending on the colisseum. The one in the screenshot is meant to take place in the early morning, and a small-scale matchup, hence the smaller crowd (and a few people talking to each other and not paying attention). In the game the crowd jumps and moves and stuff as the battle plays out.

The topic being from Ice's POV is just me having fun. On RMXP.net, the original Sandfall topic was written from Serren's point of view, which is one of the things which I think helped the project gain some popularity. I simply did this one from Ice's POV to play with that a bit- and it's an interesting contrast for those who remember the old topic.

The game itself will be focued around Serren, not Ice. And though we will be seeing a lot of flashbacks to his relationship with Ismael, the game wil have a primarily third-person feel, as we don't really get deep into anybody's thoughts unless they express them out loud.

As for the one line of dialogue- well, trust me, it's not easy to have your villain describe your characters for you.
 
Update- Mr. Mo has just finished my battle system. It's fucking awesome. As soon as I do some graphical stuff to make it all polished, I'll post a screenshot and update my first post with details.
 
I haven't post my comment on the game yet.

I also like the way the story was told. I voted for this so not much to say except it rox!
 
I haven't posted yet. I like the game a lot.
I'd love to ask if you could send me all the sprites in the screenshot, I have some, but not all, and they can turn out very useful, because I'm starting a project with arabian people.
If you can, and if you want, please can you "rarize" them and give me a link to download them?
If you can't is all right.

Best luck for ya!!!
