The windowskin is actually property of styleXP, its the same interface i'm using. Remove it or you could be in trouble. I also thing this is a big cliche on cliche, and as one said, in an artistic point of view, this needs redoing.
 
First of all: Don't post demos the second you think your game will work, always post them when you have a good, fun version of the game that has a good bit of cities, items, enemies, and characters, as "bug editions" never tend to work out that well.

Second: ALWAYS write your script in a word processor, or a notepad-like program, spell-check it, and ask the [experienced] members of RMXP to correct it before you release any playable content, or text-displaying screenshots.  Games that do not have proper English tend to fall out of popularity (if any gained at all), if the person writing the script appears to have knowledge no further than a 3rd grader.

Please remember that I am not trying to post libel on your page, nor poke fun at you in any way.  I am simply giving constructive criticism, and I hope you will appreciate it.
 
Your latest screens show a vast improvement on your mapping. I also hope that you have taken the time to review the grammar in your game before you start posting screens of some of the speech. It's a big turn-off, especially to me when someone posts screenshots with horrible grammar (I'm talking mainly about the people whose primary language is English). I would understand if English isn't your primary language, but I am sure there are people around this forum or even software like Microsoft Word that can help you revise any grammar errors you might have.
 
The demo will be released soon...sorry for the delay, but the game was on hiaus since I wasn't able to access this computer in a while.
 
Your midcity map looks very interesting, and that cave map looks good but the green tint is a bit excessive and ugly.

I think overall your mapping could do with some work, but I've seen worse. The game looks interesting and enjoyable, which is what matters, but if you're willing to go the extra mile I'd look into some map tutorials

What the hell is up with the Photoshop faggotry under Update's? That doesn't have anything to do with your game, that's just... Horrid abuse of Photoshop tools.
 
What the hell is this. Did you use every single type of graphic you can find on the internet for RPG making and just throw them in a story together thinking it would come out as if some magical unicorn pooped a pile of magical goodness sprinkled with fairy dust? This game needs some serious refining, cause honestly I don't see how anyone can stand to stare at graphics that are all different than eachother, it hurt my eyes just looking at your titlescreen.

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.

Times-a-changin'

I found this amusing.

Pfff...hahaha! Nice find.
 
Like I said on IRC, people change, I was a bit more laid back, back in the day. I actually find my self stupid for even writting that, most likely I just put it up to increase postcount, After looking at it once more and seeing it hasn't changed in a year, I am gonna speak my mind.

I was just messing around with it...it's nothing...and wow bump this thread and get tortured by everyone!

@aVERAX:That's not my title screen its something I made to make my topic look better. And if you don't like it I don't really care because I worked hard on it and the graphics aren't that much different as you say.
 
I see about 6 different artists graphics in that topic image as you say. I could probably make that in about 10 minutes or less with simply transform scales, layering, font fills, and select tool arrangements. If you tried really hard with it, I have no more comments, because I know others who put a lot more effort into collages than that one obviously has.
 
Yes, I find the logo-picture thing the top to be...well, I'll be blunt here, atrocious. It looks like you just slammed together a bunch of different graphics and battlers. It's too chaotic, and not very pretty either. And Ruruga, Naramura and RTP don't really mix-I think it should be one or the other.
Also, fix your grammar. I find it very annoying when people think to plural words you add an apostrophe and an s. I'm just nitpicky like that, but seriously, change it.
Ummm...story could use a little work. It's interesting, although a tad cliche. It'll be cool to see how you work it out.
 
Might I suggest that, instead of working on a follow-up chapter to this atrocious disgrace to the RM community, you instead remake the original? I played about twenty minutes of the first release, and it was, simply put, the worst RM game I have ever ever played. I understand that the first episode is pretty old by now, but the fact that you still have it up, and that you are proceeding with the next installment, shows that you don't seem to understand just how buttawful it is.

If I were you, I'd reevaluate this whole project of yours, and go back, and improve all of the bad stuff(i.e. nearly everything). Basically start over. Of course, I doubt you'd take my advice, no matter how much crap this is. Good luck.  :straightthumb:
