Boredom Quest

[Egnio]

This is a game which I've been working a bit longer than a month. I heard that I'd be flamed for posting something like this hear, but meh. Looks are not great (I could get better resources, but A)My pc is glitched, I can't look at png files on the internet) and B)I'm lazy), neither the story line, nor the grammar (I'm mexican, remember), but if you have nothing to do, this could help you a bit. Most of the resources are from the complete resources section, thanks to everyone there. Most of the comments and such here are from another forum, thanks to them too.

Plot:
2 guys, Hopper and Trevor, are watching television, they get bored and want to become heroes, so their quest to find someone that threats the world begins. Not amazing, I know.

Characters:
Hopper
A weird dude, that likes doing nonsensical stuff, breaking the fourth wall and such. He is strong in attacks, knowing very little special attacks.

Trevor
A person who knows something about magic and tries to look at the world as a more realistic place, shattering his thoughts whenever something weird happens.

Espio
A chameleon that no one likes since he attacks random people for no reason

Foobar
Dislikes visitors and people in general, but never says no to a favor (when he is the one who request it)

Features
* Television with lots of different channels
* Alternate currency
* Arena, with, so far, 7 different fights
* 2 Pac-man like mini-games, one that you can play whenever you want (after finding it)
* Throw-a-peanut system (if you have peanuts, you can throw them for different effects on the maps)
* Switchable party members (not developed yet, since there are only 3 characters so far in the game, 2 of them that can't be switched)
* Teleporting stones, for whenever you get bored of walking again and again
* Secrets. A good ammount of them. Try the secret boss battles.
* Demon doors, like in Fable. Do what they want, and get rewards.
* Smithing items... there's only one so far, but still...
* Maybe others that I forgot...

Enjoy it, get bored with it, whatever. YOU CHOOSE.

Neat, I'm downloading this right now.

I'm playing it right now... very, very cool game. I don't really care for the DBS, but, it's still pretty nice. Likin' the mazes and stuff, too. Good job! I'll let you know what I think when I finish it.

Ok... so Ive been playing on and off for a few days, and I guess Im at the end of the demo (after defeating the Dark Knight and Virtual Robot... right?). Uhm. Aside from the annoying Default Battle System, this actually isn't a bad game.  The puzzles and mazes are cool.

A few problems I had with the game in general; sometimes it tries too hard to be funny. 4th wall breakage can be funny sometimes, but you gotta know when to properly place it.

Another thing I had a hard time with was leveling up. Whenever I play an RPG, normally what Ill do is level up as high as I can early on and keep doing so whenever I find harder monsters. It took forever to make my characters strong enough to defeat the last boss, even fighting the strongest monsters. The mosters were challenging, but in my opinon, not enough exp. Maybe you should have a few really strong monsters amoung the random battles that give out mass exp.

Another thing is the graphics. I know it's supposed to be a random funny-ish game, but sometimes I just gotta go "WTF". Like clapping Mario everywhere... wtf? And random Pokemon... sonic... and others etc.

Overall it's a pretty good game though. I'd clean up the maps and graphics a little bit, though, but I'd really like to see it finished.

Let's see my excuse-erh... reasons...

Fourth wall brekage and trying to be funny... nope... I hardly make myself laugh at something, so it's hard for me to tell wether something is going to make other people laugh or not... I'll see what can be done about the fourth wall brekage... thanks.

Leveling up... since I update this game too often, I didn't want people to go ahead of me, since I try to make the bosses fit a level and people on party (someone on other forum reached lvl 15 when I defeated the last boss, Dark knight, at 9... Dark Knight didn't even exist when he reached that level). I'll try to fix the enemies' strenght, though. Thanks for suggestions

Graphics... random, of course... I just looked at the first thing that I could find on the Complete Resources. If you talk about the maps, it's kind of hard to find a good map, specially when you can't look at PNG images, and all the maps are PNGs. Mario have no reason of living. He's just there for the lulz. Random pokemon, sonic and etc... same reason... still, I'd like to hear what people got to say as suggestions for this one. You're saying that they're just WTF. How can they be less WTF?

Clean up the maps? Well, I try to improve them...
