The Soju Underground Mythologies

[[LS]Kobolt_Bloo]

Last Society presents a two-game anthology:

The
SOJU UNDERGROUND MYTHOLOGIES


Developed under RMVX:
The SUM of 3 months, 2 directors, 1 game.

Trumpeter and Kobolt Bloo have combined to create an anthology of epic proportions!

Both games are set in Soju continent's Northern City States; where the alliance of the two most dominant nations of Mandrake and Highland have maintained two decades of peace in a region which was once besot by conflict and warfare. However, with the advent of tactical runes, deterrence has never been easier and the face of war has been revolutionized as conventional mass armies faced greater challenges against trained professional rune users and fighters. Other cities, such as Los Marcos and New Soju have maintained peace and serenity, avoiding war at all costs. Los Marcos, being a city of entertainment and luxury are without a proper military, and New Soju that strives on commerce and trading.

But how long will this peace last? The young princess Chilly of Highland Kingdom is due to take the throne of her father and powerful a leader she may be, some question her stability. After taking control, she sends her Special Assault Team to take over Mandrake Castle and assassinate key figures. Everyone is captured… except for one - the sassy, smart-mouthed and spoiled princess Lucy Di Borgia.

Princess Lucy, her handmaid Cindy and the young knight Cain manage to escape! Lucy may have been trained from birth to rule, yet does she truly have what it takes? Is she willing to make the sacrifices for her people? Set up your headquarters, begin the insurgency and regain Mandrake Castle and the rest of the Northern City States!
The battle for supremacy begins!

On the other side of the Northern Soju City States, Anthony Lakewater has just been released from prison, declared innocent from his murderous crime two years ago. Detective Avery remains suspicious and follows him within his jurisdiction. Lakewater knows that he can outsmart anyone, anytime and at anyplace. He decides to do what nobody else has ever done before: Steal from the church. If any business has been consistently profitable for generations, it is the business of religion.

Lakewater arrives at the city of Los Marcos, his hometown. Recruit your thieves, uncover the greatest religious conspiracy known to man and, of course, steal lots and lots of money.
Lie, cheat and steal your way to victory! Accomplish the ultimate heist!


JUST REMEMBER, IT IS ALL A SIMPLE S.U.M.

Screenshots are up. Also, look forward to a few minigames showing the war system and the debate system from my game in action.  :thumb:

Have you properly credited everyone? One of those songs sound kinda like it's from the Samarost games.

On the Just Money game, after the Title shows up, it crashes for me.

Otherwise, the other one is okay.

After the title screen shows, that's the end of it. It's just a teaser, after all. The crash forces you to quit  :thumb: [/sarcasm]    Yeah, sorry about that. That little segment you recieved there is correct, though. The introduction sequence, the title screen and the little blimp entering town is all I'm allowing everyone to see. Hence: Teaser.

--Hold on. I just googled Samorost and saw their introduction sequence. Yes, the song I use is the exact same one by The Cinematic Orchestra titled Diabolous. I use a lot of acid jazz-type tracks with the sort of cinematic double-bass feel for mysterious sequences. I don't find the need to credit the BGM artists (I find that Amanita design do not credit them as well) because the focus of the game is the storyline, not the graphics and the music.

The music is to bring the crime-like noir feel that my game is parodying.
