    Legacy - New Heist 29/01/12

    By Tomo2000

    A $15,000 job, during these times, is a job where you don't ask questions, right? $15,000 is a small armoury; a few P90's, a shotgun or two, a dozen handguns, plus all the ammo. That's a lot of money, and all you need to do is find a 17-year-old girl named Rebecca Kim in a small coastal town, right?   Wrong. There are far too many questions bouncing around left right and centre it's starting to get a little bit scary... Matt was able to snag some information from an online computer at the base

FFXP 4 progress 5/24/11

I have most of the story thought up in my head. If you have played most of the Kingdom Hearts games, you will understand the story, especially since i explain everything in the first 3 at the beginning. It will also explain what kind of "chosen one" bob is.

Final Fantasy XP 4: Progress 5/20/11

Still need scripts, and some sprites. I'm not sure exactly what i'll need later, but i know i'll need it.   I almost finished Chapter 2, story event wise, but i haven't finished everything. There are currently no shops or inns. the buildings are there tho. I've got a lot of it planned out, but i'll most likely change it once i get to certain parts. I do that all the time.

Merlin The RPG Project Goes Live Today!

I officially launched Merlin The RPG as a live project today. I advertised on many Merlin fan sites, and posted the official game description and recruitment page on RMXPU. With all the advertising and networking out of the way for the most part I look forward to resuming production as usual next week.   For a better idea on exactly what is left to be created for all resources to be done for Book/Game 1 you may visit this link for a series of checklists, which better detail progression.   W

Merlin Official Website

As I was looking around RMXP Unlimited I found a link to someones game page that was created on a free website making site and I loved the design. I checked free site out and decided to use it as well for the Merlin The RPGs official website. So that is now created link here and 90% of the site itself is complete (based on currently available information).   While working on the site I gained a better idea on what I was able to create myself and gave an attempt to and successfully created quit

A Clear Path

Since registering with RMXP Unlimited I and our Creative Director Steph, have been working hard on a forum post for both the Projects and Teams section and the Project Recruitment section.   We are currently finished the Projects and Teams post, and only need a few more reference picture for sprites we need help creating and both posts will go up at the same time.   There is also a project checklist on the Bon Ink Creation forums for merlin, which will be updated weekly to bi-weekly with pro

Slowly But Surely

After registering to this site I was given a boost of inspiration. I finally finished the Camelot castle hallways, and am in the process of joining them via event doors. I also finished all the insides of the houses in Ealdor including event doors. With only a few rooms in camelot castle left to finish I think I can reach my goal.   My goal is to have the entire Merlin Kit evented for travel before the end of may. when that is finished I can then move on to the last half of my spriting, and fr

Info to know

OK, I just want to let everyone know that if I play your game or you ask me a question, I am straight forward when it comes to the comments. I tell it like it is. It's not to hurt anyone's feelings or put you down. Kind of like a paid game critic tells the companies that hire them to give feedback on their prototype. Also, I'm new to this website and everything about it, so I may not be able to answer your questions or help you if you get stuck on something. I'll probably be the one asking fo

What is it all about?

Merlin The RPG is a 16 bit style role-playing game based around the British Broadcasting Channel(BBC) television series Merlin aka The Adventures of Merlin.   With a side view, turn based battle system Merlin The RPG has a classic Final Fantasy feel to it.   The game is being made into 'Books' which will each represent the different seasons of the show. It will be released in 'Chapters' which will each represent the different episodes of the seasons.     This being the first blog for Merl

Not too much

I know this isn't really an update or anything new, however I *think* I have finished my party follow system, bug-free :)   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtqQF1N5CQw   It took a while to get the character refreshing to work properly, as I use 3 different character sets for each character (walk, run and standing) Although I could probably make the character sets have all the graphics compiled then just change the script around to read the character sets that way...hmm.....   Anywho, now it

Tutorials Concept

So how do you make a tutorials component? There aren't exactly any defined parts of information you can lob into a bunch of textfields.   Here's one way you can do it. You have one type of element that you can too your page - a step. You can add unlimited steps, set the order of each step. Further you have a series of elements attached to each step -> Body of text, images, downloads, videos etc.   This makes it really easy to make a tutorial. You can instantly see what your tutorial loo

Some random stuff

Not much of an update, I have been rethinking my game at the moment, and decided to create a chrono trigger styled battle system (on the map, but not exact replica..no atb, dual techs, etc it will still follow my systems, just on the map instead) and decided to pull this off effectively it would probably work better with a caterpillar script.   Now I have never been a huge fan of caterpillar style party movement...except for chrono trigger's, where the players actually appeared to be following

Ka-BLAM

Well, this is different. Just then I had a sudden idea explosion. Post apocalyptic, of course, you guys know me too well. More of true RPG than my normal games. It takes place in after the nuclear apocalypse (No, nothing like Fallout...) and just.. Well.. That's all I got so far. Stay tune guys! :) ~Tom.

Okay, time to take a break for realz

Ugh, sorry gravija, I couldn't resist :( But seriously I am taking a break from this menu for a bit. No sleep...1500 lines of code later...   XMB menu MOVIE   (ignore the ILIKEPIE background..I wrote the script so the player will be able to add their own backgrounds at any point during the game; and I wanted to test it out) And the worst is yet to come. Yup I got all the easy stuff done...I think at least ONE good night's sleep is in order before I conquer the rest. I just REALLY REALLY hop

New stuffz

Hahaha :sweatdrop: go figure that as soon as I start a blog on my game's development a take a minor break XD   Well, it won't be for too long. I have taken a break to finish a XMB style menu system for anyone to use in their game. (In case you're unsure XMB stands for Xross Media Bar, which is used by PSP/PS3...so in other words it's just a nerdy way of saying "PSP style menu" I am nerdy by nature, what can I say?)   Any who in case anyone is following I do have one thing new to post about

Yay Blogssszz

Yay, I just discovered that RMXPU has blogs! And of course I decided to make one :P Anyways, I will mostly be posting development on my current main project--Which is currently untitled. I've been playing around with a few ideas for a name, but the story is still somewhat early in development so I will leave it untitled for now. This project is mostly to get help me learn all the ins & outs of RMXP and Ruby. I actually have a few projects that I am kind of working on at the same time, but t
