And decided to reboot an old RPG I worked on a long time ago (Tinsdalia), and incorporate ideas from a bunch of other RPGs that never made it quite as far.
Anyways, here's my first developer update...
the world of ...wait for it...
ZYNOA!
Basically, you're in this world where there are four pl- wait I wrote a story up for this already (excuse the typos but I cbf to deal with recopying/pasting/adjusting this mammoth of an image):
It's a turn-based RPG that allows for up to 4 players in every party.
The game features:
1.)Clothing
Basically, how this works is at the beginning you get to choose clothes for your character (clothes are class-specific) and the clothes determine the build of your character. It provides a descriptive word for the piece of clothing based on what stat growth it enhances and how much it enhances it by.
As you progress through the game you unlock more clothes which can be used in a new game plus sort of thing I plan on implementing. This would allow you to create different builds of characters.
pics:
Here, tough corresponds to +4LP/level, safe corresponds to +1BP/level and light corresponds to +1AP/level
The stats are:
LP - Life points
ETP - Essence/technique points - required to do magics/skills
PP - Power Points
BP - Body Points (defense)
AP - Agility Points
DP - Dexterity Points
CP - Craft Points (magic power)
RP - Resistance Points (magic defense)
hits - for every additional hit damage increases by 10%; amount of hits dealt range from 50-100% of whatever your maximum amount of hits are, and are limited by your weapon (i.e: you can't do 10 hits with a gigantic club)
luck - when dexterity fails, whatever you luck is, that percentage of the time you will still hit. It doesn't change as you level up but abilities can alter it. It's 10 by default.
2.)Color customization
You can choose the colors of each individual clothing article. Again, you'll be able to unlock more as you progress through the game.
3.)PvP
Not fully functioning nor balanced yet, but as it stands, you can step forward/backward on you turn during a PvP. This is because your placement matters. For example, there are area of effect attacks.
Also melee attacks are stronger up close.
This way, a good party will have melee fighters in the front and mages in the back.
4.)Other stuff I can't nor don't feel like recalling
I still need testers. I recently (like 6 hours ago) added a gigantic heap of content (3 new towns, 30 or so monsters, 150+ weapons/armors) and even created content production utilities to expedite the process of adding stuff. I was hoping maybe to test today but there's actually not many people who volunteered to test that are actually present. :sadface:
Anyways, I'm hoping to release the game sometime within the next two months. The goal is to release it with at least 16 towns (only 4 so far :P) and somewhere between 10-20 new monsters and 50-60 new weapons/armors for each new region.
Quests are functional but I haven't added any in, same for treasure chests, item drops, etc...
Anyways, I'm gonna go eat more than I should and be sorry. Good day to you, males, females, plurals and neuters.
