Soul Reaver 1: Nocturne Gospel

[mawk]

It'll come out when it comes out. There's no need to bump the topic and badger the creator for this sort of thing. It's not like Keinaru's forgotten that she's making a game and needs you to remind every time the posting rate slows down. :x

 

[Zaich]

Then why post deadlines you can't make?

 

[mawk]

:x

 

[Necrile]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it at the creators discretion for anything related to their game? There is a good reason for them not releasing it, and telling them to "hurry up" only stresses them out more.

Check your Inbox Keinaru...
I PMed you the updated  Logo for this game
Just posting this to be sure that you recieve it because i dont know if you did XD....

Anyway guys,
Please dont bump the thread with the sayin 'Release the demo!!' something like that...
its not really helpful

 

[monkeydlu]

Then why post deadlines you can't make?

the real question is Why NOt?

but seriously, for a creator there can be several reasons, some'll do it just to give themselves prospect, becuase simply telling a deadline to themselves is hard to keep, the added pressure can actually ensure motivation, but haggling is still BAD and DOESN'T HELP

plus, as a trying creator in the amature field, your constantly improving, thus, the continuum of never being satisfied to release anything goes on and on.

 

[Ynlraey]

A release date is certainly wrong but seriously just posting something RELEASE A DEMO is annoying as hell and very rude.

Keinaru has a life and of course as usual not all amateur games can stand by the real deadline specially with all the bugs they have to fix etc. :V

 

[Light1]

Keinaru this game is truly good nice job on this one and good luck with the demo many people seems to be waiting for it including me

 

[Keinaru]

It will be available when it's ready . . .

I've added the new Title Logo Lonewolf did & change the Project's name from "Soul-Raves" to Soul-Reaver.

Technically, Reaver comes from stealing or taking, one of the two. (Just in case someone asks).

I'm still thinking of a less Cliche storyline with less Innuendos as Chimmy said.

The storyline is not final, but a general idea to remind me what to do.

Also, I had been in College, sorry for taking long to reply everyone, no new screenshot or goodies, except for the Logo & Title update. But hopefully that's just enough, now excuse me while I take down that out-of-date release date.

release the demo when you see it the right time to release it , your game inspired me to work harder on my project to make it good as yours not better your game is far better than mine anyway good luck and take your time don't rush it

Ok I downloaded the Teaser Demo and what I found funny is it's so close to Shakugan No Shana (it's like Shakugan No Shana with Seinarukana covering :|) Not sure how to react there.

 

[Keinaru]

:/ That teaser is still the same one as before.

Last time I check, I got responses that the teaser didn't make much sense at all.

 

[monkeydlu]

well, it might also be becuase the main theme is also from shana, I never saw the show past eps 2 since I didn't like it that much so I can't say though.

 

[Ynlraey]

Watched the whole Shakugan no Shana so it made sense to me, it depends on the person really. I'm one of those people that get the storyline of stuff fairly easy :P

P.S. I didn't download the teaser before.

 

[Keinaru]

:| I see . . .

Well, added Ming's Opening in the first page, even thou youtube kills it's quality, it look great. (Thou I gotta stop playing with it xD)

;p Along with a few credits

 

[Lonewolf]

Keinaru... I kinda like the new Banner than your first one xD

 

[Keinaru]

xD Thanks

:x Even thou it was just a little resize on photoshop.

;p Now all that I have to do is make the website & update the story/plot.


-Edit-

:x On news: Due to laziness & well, trouble making the resources & such, I might limit the exploration on Towns & Certain Areas, Instead, the player will go on a separated Windows of the location he is & chooses the area he/she wants to visit, think of it like . . . Ar Tonelico & (if you've been paying attention to Ming's updates) Celestias Ferrum.

Also, the gameplay might be <sigh> limited in some puzzles & mini-games due to said system & if you're the type of person who despises long talks . . . . Soul Reaver may not be for you, The game now uses a similar Visual Novel-like scenes, where the player's decision affects the party's thoughts on the main character, not to mention it also affects the Player's Partner/Heroine, most of the scenes, will (not final) look like a Visual Novel's system ingame. (Mainly because I'd have to edit sprites for many expressions & it gets tiring working over & over again).


Also, 2 new features to be added (probably, I'm still thinking) would be the so called "Topic" Event & the . . . well, "Dream World" Events.
These two work similar, but in a different way >:x

The "Topic" Event system is just an average conversation, in which the player interacts with one of the Characters from his/her party by looking up for "Topics" like items around the world, these events will only be unlocked either in a savepoint camping, Town Inn or Headquarters, these little events, althou some might be . . . (to you guys) boring, they actually raise the chances of your little heroines to fall for you & to even unlock those porn scenes which I know you all want and love the most. :p Can't let you guys have those scenes that easily, which comes Part 2:

The "Dream World" systems, takes more of the "Visual Novel" Concept, the player chooses one of the Heroines and both go in a "Role-Playing-Like-Game", ;3 With each raising that Girl's value to the Main Character even higher, not to mention some skills can only be obtain from this events. :x Unfortunately, it requires a certain Value or "Trust" towards that specific heroine to go "deeper" into each episode. Althou it sounds like boring, the "Dream World" actually creates a different storyline that has nothing to do with the main one, so you don't have to worry about missing details, since I realize that you will all start to panic if something from one girl's dream world is discussed & the player gets lost. (lol). One can obtain from this Events New Skills, Weapons, Armors & Items and the chance to strengthen the bond between the Main Character & the Player's selected Heroine (& your precious "scenes" ;P).

Also note, that once the game is release, there are also some NPCs which you can also activate these Topics & Dream World Events & get your precious Scenes too, but your gonna have to be careful as it can . . . quite get your partner (depending thou) quite angry >__>;; & lower her value.

Also, what does this mean? Simple: You don't have to worry about been caught playing Soul Reaver & suddenly one of those "Scenes" comes out, you'll have to make a lot of work if you want those scenes.


:| Well, I guess that's that for what's planned & to also find & capture Ming when I see him, that is, when he's free thou . . . <__<||||

:x Ah, also, soon I'll have a steady "storyline" & the characters up there with new userbars for support :| along with *finally* the website itself.

 

[Cowlol]

You are aware that there's already a game called Soul Reaver, aren't you?

 

[DopyG]

Actually I must edmit that when i first saw this topic i thought it was related to the other Sould Reaver =X

I think that the title might have to be changed just a little bit. =X

 

[tensuke]

If this game doesn't have Raziel doing that weird thing where he opens his shirt or w/e, I shall be sorely disappointed.
Not really, though that would be awesome. Game looks pretty good, I'll have to check it out sometime when there's a demo.
