It sure is 14 14 around these parts lately.

the boar has mastered spacial displacement...or photonic telekinesis...I wouldn't mess with it

[Shady Ultima]

I'm really confused about what's going on here at all...

[Bluhman]

Woah, crap, modified HOMMII Graphics/battlers!

Looks like some interesting tech/clock things you got there (Or is that a counter? It looks sort of like a military time thing to me, but I might be wrong, now that I realize each one has 14 in the number).

Some explanation beyond some screenshots usually helps to persuade people to download your thing, dude.

But that implies effort.  And the idea that I'm doing a whole lot more than cataloging the fact that at one point, in some small way, this game existed.  Just in case

Do we still do that?

Either way.  A bit of elaboration is fair to ask, I suppose.  An idea I've been dicking around with for a few days.  In its current state it's a buggy 15 minute long adventure game with rpg influence.  The bigger plans for it are along the lines of an open-ended, 500 by 500 tile world with strong Elder Scrolls influences (Minus terrible plot, I hope.) and an emphasis on problem solving, rather than wearing out your enter key - though the option still exists.

The vast majority of encounters will be scripted and come with the opportunity to in some fashion 'skip' them, with the help of a specific item, or what-have-you.  Which solution the player picks is a matter of preference and some pride, as only resolving quests will award experience.  To say again, though, as it is now, it's a half-complete, bug-marred proof of concept.

I think the thing in the upper left corner is the hero health?
Or is it time, it kinda feels like the health since it's 14 14 except for the battle.

What is this!? :/

I believe it's counting down the minutes 'till the moon crashes into Termina.

As is the legacy of RPGmaker the universe conspires against its users.  My external hard-drive exploded.  The very same external hard-drive that this game was on.  Truth be known, that all but killed my enthusiasm - little work as remaking one third of the world map and a decent chunk of the user interface systems would be on a grander scale.  Might still make a game, since I'm still in the mood, but it won't be on the same grandiose scale.

Also worth noting

What is this!? :/

I laughed my pointless censorship off.  Never change, Charas.  Never change.

[fruckert]

I laughed my *** off.  Never change, Charas.  Never change.

Don't worry, we won't.
