Oh, ha ha, my bad. Maybe next time, then. ^_^

Count me in. =P

I would go see it if I could. I've heard amazing things about this movie.

Big Rigs, if you can consider it a game.

Thanks. :3 Yeah... Well, not exactly. Note that I haven't been making this physical RPG Maker Project for six years, but rather the Game World and all the games planned. Though I have been trying to make a decent project for Sanam for some time now. I've only been working on this specific project for a while. ^^;

For my current project, Sanam, I wrote the story for about five years (from when I was ten or so to now) and eventually started making an RPG out of it. Note that I wasn't just writing the story for the game itself, I was writing the entire game world and all of its issues. And also, when I was younger, I was obviously bad at writing these things, lol, so most of my work suffers. When I got older, I revised all I had written for the events of Sanam, following Zack's story. I'm revising all the other stuff too, not changing it completely, just fixing up the plot holes and general stupid stuff. However, now that I'm older, I'll continue writing out my games before making them, as I feel more in control and I don't lose faith as much. I write out the scenarios, enemies, characters and all that, and then how the events fit together (now that I already established my whole world and its locations for the most part).

I thought I may as well update the OP. I'm working on a Minor Characters section, so I'll add that too.

The soda thing was mine last year. It worked for me. =D This year my new years resolution was to make a new years resolution. I win.

Looks too VX for my tastes. I wish they would have gone with an RPG Maker 2003 port with a bunch of new graphics and such (so the games don't all look the same.)

>_< I've cut my hair since then, and look much different. I'll post a newer pic later.

Well, a lot of things can be found attractive, and generally it's just the idea of something sexual. Like Hentai, it's not real people, just drawn characters, but some people find it arousing simply because it's implying sexual scenes. I think that pertains to this, too. So Straight.

Hahaha, so cool. Wish I had a Link costume.

4-5:00 AM. Got in the habit by staying up late playing Majora's Mask. Have you ever scammed someone in an MMO? xD

No, just put it in sleep mode. Have you ever accidentally broken a disk taking it out of its case?

Sanam Created by... Sanam is the first of the Sanarian Trilogy. Sanam, in-game, is a state in a large continent named Endria. I have been developing many versions of this game for almost five years. I have scrapped each one, out of anger (because I couldn't get it as good as I wanted it to be). But the version I started working on a couple months ago has made me happy, and can assure you that I will be completing this version. Story: Sanam is the richest state in Endria, thanks to Denrin Lidius. For ten years, he has assumed the role of King and lead the state through depression and war, victorious. Though mostly good had come from the years of his rule, a fatal issue arose for the people living on Ilen, a small island on the tip of Sanam. The island was barely considered part of Sanam before, and eventually lost respect from Denrin. The island was deemed to anarchy and forgotten. The island fought for its respect, and recovering from its main village, Calvianus', seperation into two villages - Calvus and Salvus. Calvus is Zack's hometown. He's been working with Richard, the town's Financial Advisor, to earn Ilen's place in Sanam back. Recently, a display of sloppy finance reports and the eventual halt of them coming at all worries Richard. He sends Zack to the town's rival village, to attempt restoring peace... Project Goals and Origins Magic Development Characters Zack Age: 17 Male Class: Fighter Description: Zack grew up on the island Ilen, living particularly in the town of Calvus. He's kind and usually outgoing, though his personality has become darker over the years. He's been through many hard times, like the Un-Governed War, and the seperation of Calvianus Village. His Mother and Father both passed away when he was seven, and eight, respectively. Zack fell into deep depression from their passing away, but his life turned around because of his relationship with Sarah. He was given a full Sanam education, and majored in Sword Combat. His teacher, Samuel Trias, taught him all he knows in the area of combat. Zack continues to live in Ilen, intending to stay there for at-least three more years before leaving for the mainland. He doesn't share much about his Father when anyone asks, or his Mother. He also tends to avoid any talk about Denrin Lidius. Sarah Trias Age: 16 Female Class: White Mage Description: Sarah is a very nice, open girl. She grew up in Ilen with Zack, in the town of Calvus. When she got older, she left Calvus, to go to Salvus, pursuing a job. Her Mother and Father left her on Amanda Trias of Calvus' doorstep when she was very young, so her real parents are unknown. Amanda raised Sarah and taught her in Vol's teachings. Though she was heavily influenced by Vol's teachings, her heavy admiration of Zack drove her to take the same belief as him. She has, like Zack, never left Ilen, and learned everything she knows there. She was given a basic eduction, which she regrets, and intends to finish her education someday. Sam Age: 15 Female Class: Fighter Description: Sam is the cute, shy girl everybody seems to know. She's innocent, and a bit naive at times, and is, unwillingly, often the center of attention. She was born in Triun of Sanam, but soon-after was taken to Ilen. She left Ilen at ten years of age to go back to triun and receive a full Sanarian education. She was taught how to fight with many different weapons, including swords, spears, and Ranged weapons. But her admiration for Zack made her stick to swords. Also because of this admiration, she returned to Calvus at fifteen. Jade Age: 16 Female Class: Black Mage, Archer Description: Jade is a kind, but somewhat shy, girl who has apparently lived in Nilestone Village for most of her life. She recently left Nilestone to create a rebellion group in Triun, to battle against the Deseco Organization. She refuses to speak of either of her parents, or any other relatives she has. She also keeps most of her history hidden, and avoids making close friends. She was trained by a warrior in Nilestone village in Ranged weaponry. She also developed Black Magical abilities, regardless of formerly being told that she has no Magical Potential. Kyle Picture Coming Soon Age: 17 Male Class: Thief Description: Kyle is a former street-urchin from Triun. He and his sister moved from place to place, as he tried to find a city that offered a decent job, but couldn't keep a job anywhere because of his reputation as a thief. With nowhere to go, he had to dive into his unfair reputation and begin stealing just to keep his sister healthy. This led to him becoming quite the thief, and even years later, when him and his sister have legitimate jobs, his thieving skills come in handy. Minor Characters Richard Hunter Age: 42 Bio: Richard was born in Triun, when the city was still Rank 2; only considered a small village. He grew up as a banker's son and picked up the career himself. He worked his way up to a rather powerful Judge, but the Ryan controversy forced him to step down from the stand as a lowly Financial Adviser. Since him and Zack were friends at the time, Zack invited Richard to work for Ilen, and Richard has been helping them out ever since. Samuel Trius Age: 40 Bio: Samuel Trius is an Ilen long-timer. He was there when Calvus and Salvus were still one joined city. He now resides in Calvus, particularly because of Sarah and Zack's former relationship. When Sarah had left for Salvus and Zack had been drafted for the war a few years prior, his boredom led him to start working again, taking up the same job Zack has always had - hunting animals for food and selling it to cities of higher ranks, such as Triun. He married Amanda Elessu at age 22 and they've been married since. They also adopted Sarah when they found her on their doorstep when she was only a year old and have since raised her. Amanda Trius Age: 39 Bio: Amanda Trius grew up with Samuel on Ilen, and married him at age 21. Amanda has a Lumber shop opened in Calvus for many years, but eventually the need for lumber was aided by the city of Wraith instead. She has always been suspicious of Zack, which her daughter blames on her over-protective nature. Amanda has made a great effort in finding more information for Sarah rather than her name and birth date found on the parcel included in her basket sixteen years ago, but to no avail. Eve of Nilestone Age: 17 Bio: Eve grew up in Nilestone Village and befriended the former leader of the town, Rain. She aimed at inheriting the town after Rain died, but couldn't when Deseco stepped in and took control. Years later to present day, Deseco has left, but still has watches that visit the Village on occasion, which disrupts the village's former lifestyle. Eve works as a saleswoman of many different unique drinks made in Nilestone. She befriended Zack on Ilen when she went to sell Ryan Smith a trade route contract. Screenshots These are just a few... Gameplay Information Sanam plays like a traditional RPG. It uses the default ATB system. I'm hoping to make the battles fun, requiring strategy and quick thinking. Here are some details about the battle system.
