Volcano

Note to players:The world of Volcano is a massive world and it won't be viewed in one game alone.These games could go on for years. At the moment I'm only focused on the current game, which in fact is a prequel to the real stages of the game. Part two will explain much more about what the Volcanoes are and will give players a better outlook and understanding of what they're playing.

  • About the Demo:[/FONT]The demo has been removed until the game is more complete.[/FONT][/FONT]

Beginning:A young boy is found in the wilderness by a girl. He don't know how he got there, but he calls himself Prince Sergeo, of the Volcanians. The girl believes him and ask why is he out here. This is where the story begins.

Background:The world of Volcanians dated back many centuries when the end of the world was among the people of earth. Many people were killed when every volcano in the world exploded causing the ultimate crisis. As the lava flowed across the planet a special aura traveled with it and when it touched a human they didn't burn but instead transformed into demons known as Volcanians. For centuries they roamed the planet seeking more power only to be attacked by those who survived the crisis. This caused a major war and in the end the Volcanians won and took control over the planet. Over the years the evil among them begin draining away and they began looking normal and human again. This was due to some of the Volcanians mating with humans. There was still some bad ones that opposed this and slaughtered the humans and cursed the babies that were born. This caused another war and this times the humans won and the evolution for Volcanians were final. This age was anew and now it is the present where evil still murks in the shadows. And that evil is about to emerge again!

Hey man, I know it can be frustrating to have your topics go ignored, especially after the work you have put in... but you really shouldnt bump for 24 hours.

As for the story, it seems a little odd to me. It's called volcano and the BIG IDEA is volcanoes but suddenly they dissapear from the remainder of your story. The four keys and revenge jump out and say "Boring" but the idea of volcanoes and that setting is a bit more original. I would place more emphasis on that.

The screens, whilst not terrible are also pretty bland. It's hard to just say, but try and inject a bit more atmosphere into them, they seem lifeless.

Make it clearer you have a demo, this is my second view of the project and I've only just seen it.

Fix the grammar, spelling and punctuation of your writing, it immeditaely makes people think the dialogue in the game will be error ridden too.

Can I also point out, your screens don't really seem as though they are on volcanic land, it may be good to set the game all in volcanic settings to give it uniquness.

Nice title screen.

Steer clear of having odd one out face graphics - particularly with such an important character.

May I ask if you have spent alot of time on the story? Another direction you could go is using the volcanoes as gods that need to be gifted sacrifices in order to stay dormant. The civilizations that live in danger of these eruptions could be the ones blessed with the spirit of the volcanoes as they were raised in its near vicinity. Therefore a conflict between the normal towns people and the "Volcans" or whatever, with them trying to use the townspeople as sacrifices to their respective volcanoes. Just a premise using the Volcano idea further.
 
Thats not the whole story I just don't want to spoil everything in the story and and I din't make the demo clear because there's a bug in it and I don't want now one to download it for nothing.Also the screenies will be updated because they have changed.Thanks for the idea on the story although not saying to much thats kinda what the story may revolve into.Thanks for the idea on the Volcanic feel to the game will definetely use it and everyone plz don't play the demo until I confirm its safe to play.

I will update everything tonight so stay tuned.
 
Your grammar and spelling and punctuation are terrible.

Sergeo, are you ready to go yet?

I grew up in the slums, where no one cared how the people lived.

Rebecca, I miss Mom and Dad.

(Those last two, before you general grammar-hounds attack, are 'cause they're referring to exact people, therefor being proper nouns. It's just the way it seems right to me.)

You may also want to grammar-check your story-lines and such. I spotted a few errors.

As for the game: It looks a bit cliché, but hey, who cares. Your story is your story. Also, you used ultimate twice in your first two character biographies. Kind of weird, but hey, that's cool too. That's your thing.

I like the title screen, not especially fond of the ONE Naramura face-set intruding, but hey. It sets the main bad guy apart, which is cool as well. Anyways, on the whole, it looks alright. Those bugs should be fixed before you post it, because they sound like easy enough ones to fix. Good job so far, and I hope to see more promising content from you in the future.

Sincerely,
~Dox
 
Sorry bout the grammar most of it has already been corrected I just didn't update the shots.Thanks for the response as well.Also the bugs has been fixed I just have to updat my demo.
 
Very sexy, but stupid! nah.... it's no stupido, It's a teeeeeency(big) bit cliche the way everyone's parents are dying. But everything else is shexy. That tiger thing rocks, never even heard of that... -.- dun dun duuuuuuuuunnnn
 
Umm I think I made it to where you must hit the action button in the forest, you know the part that goes in, but if its a hassle to people I'll fix it to where any entry is available.
 
I think it's up to the decision of the designer whether or not to make the teleports triggered by the action-button, though if you do, mention it somewhere clear, and be consistent. ;)
 
This looks very well thought out. And I like it's idea. The custom remakes of the RTP Battlers and faces look good... one thing though, the younger brother's face looks like a girl, just to inform you, but other than that. Great game, and good luck with it.
