New Charas Chain Game

[Dr. Ace]

You know what they call projects that release with all sorts of ignored issues? Crap. I'm not saying this game will be great, but it would really be a shame if we ignored all of the little things after we spent nearly a year creating the chapters.

The point is it should never have taken a year to create a few RPGMaker chapters.

You're like a broken record man. Considering the average time it takes for people to finish one of their projects I'd say that a year is pretty fast.

Heck yeah! Most of us have spent at least 5-7 years just working out all the bugs with our main projects. The fact this game, a chain game none the less, has been nearly 100% completed in one year? I'd say that's pretty inspiring! ^_^ I've just got one ot two more I's to cross and a few T's to dot and my side quests will be done. Be patient guys. Trust me this one is worth the wait. It's...heck it knocked Carpe Diem and AOA off my favorite games list.

I don't think the delays have made it less impressive.  In an ideal world we could have stuck to the deadlines but in reality that'll never happen when people are just working casually like this.  Having said that I wouldn't take the game back until the finish now myself for fear of causing delay : p

< <; Why to not make me more nervous. Ah I'm almost done anyway. I just gotta program in the last side quest and fix the grammar issues that were left over from my old chapter and possibly one area in my dungeon. We'll see.

So any updates? How's it going? etc.

[Prpl_Mage]

Fish said that he was almost done yesterday, Working on some puzzle or room or something.

[daoman89]

Is it done yet? lol

[Fisherson]

Okay progress report! Got more than 50% of my cutscenes done, working on the last couple o=f a bosses and I need to place some monsters. Then all the work on the current chapter will be done. I just need to go back and edit some grammar that's ATROCIOUS in my previous chapter. Shouldn't take more than this week to be done. I'm estimating 3 days if all goes right then one day to test play. When it's done I'll send it to Purple to do a quick double check. After that? We can make the official release page! =D Ain't that awesome?

Oh and by the way I have a "Charas Pubb" section in the game where everyone can make a cameo, but I don't know allot of your new guys so Pm me a chara set of you and something you'd like to say as an NPC and I'll add you to the pubb! Still plenty of room, but you have to do it before I send the game to Purps.

woot

Quick update. Last puzzle, last bosses/monsters. A few bugs I need to fix in the current cut scene but honestly not much more. ^_^ Almost there! Wish me luck fellas!

[Momeka]

Play through everything you made from beginning to end and make sure everything works.

I will! I already did that twice ont he first Sidequest "The Cult of Fara". I plan to at least test play this fully once. Speaking of I may as well add a status update:

I removed 50% of a grammar errors removed from old chapter.
Fixed all cut scenes in the beginning of chapter 5. ^_^ That went way better than I expected.
Updated the TBS in Machu Pikachu from Chapter 5 so that the enemies can be ran away from. Probably won't do it for Dragonia Castle though...
Finished two cutscenes for Jazel's second side quest and have two left. One is really small though.

Need to make sure the boss is 100% ballanced and adjust some of her battle animations for her summoning attacks. Grrr...stupid global positioning. Though if I can't in a day or two? Well it'll have to stay tacky.

So yeah steadily trucking on. About to go finish that last cut scene and then it's on to placing the monsters. This is the last step I need then one quick spell check of Marduk's dialogue in chapter 5. Wish me Force! Lol

UPDATE:

Did all cut scenes but the clossing. Working the bugs out of the ones I just did. Whew....Tiring work this. Need to go back and fix some anoying monsters cause I copy and pasted them without specefying a background and it crashes when I encounter them, ugh. But all in all? Nearly there!

Further Update:

Fixed most of the bugs and have done all cut scenes and they are nearly flawless. Just gotta get the last one to operate right and teleport the heroes back to start and make sure it adds the right varibles. Pretty much done. Expect the game tomorrow, Purps or the next day at the very least barring any super glitches. ^_-

Even Further Update:

Ack. Forgot I hadn't filled in the shops...and didn't add the monsters. -  -; Well it'll be two days at the very least, but here's some good news: No bad bugs or glitches so far on the test play! =D As for the monster ballance in battle? Eh if you want it sooner I may just leave that to Purps if he doesn't mind. Haven't been able to catch him on Skype in a while.

I apologize for the double post, but the Chain Game is FINISHED!! =O Ugh. Double play tested, there may be one or two minor misspellings...but it works 100%. ^O^ Battles also may or may not be 100% balanced. < <; Anywho sending the game to Purps tomorrow as theres lightning storms about to come over and it'd take hours with my internet anyway. ^^; But hey we did it guys!! Celebrate good times, come on~

Hurrah! Congrats everyone!

Are you giving it to purple just to upload it, or is he going to do some additional stuff (in which place it's not really complete is it?). When there's a final version of the game uploaded somewhere, let me know and I can make a thread for it in the Completed Games and Demos section.
