New game - Shalaren The Shattered Metropolis

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

ok so this is a project I have been working on for a while now. it would be faster if I would be able to build a team T~T

I allways started making games in RMXP and I'm allways ditching them, but this one I think im actually gonna finish.

 

I dont have much of the game done, but I have enough to show you o:, so is you like the way it looks, you might consider joining the team? O:

plus, I dont have much time as well, school is coming up and it means things are gonna move even slower, hopefully it wont get to slow D:.

Shalaren Metropolis is a place of magic. Its people are mostly fighters and Magicians that live to protect the world from demons. On the other side of the Island, Sagittar Nation was located, it’s a city where the Sagittars live, and they are people who mastered the techniques of the legendary creature named “Sagittarius”. However, war is common in their history. Shalaren was a young man at the time, he spends countless years in the human army fighting demons, throughout his years he learned magic from magicians all over the world. It was a war that never ended between the humans and the demons. One day, the gates of the underworld opened inside Shalaren Metropolis, none knew the reason why. Many demons got out of this gate and that’s when a greater war has begun. Magicians gave up because they did not have a seal strong enough to hold the demons, Sagittars joined the war, killing as many demons as they can, but still there were too many demons taking over. Thousands of people have died, one day Shalaren searched for a solution and found out that there is a spell that can keep demons at bay and make all of them go back to the underworld, but comes at a price, the price is death, selling your life and soul for greater good, some say that using this spell counts as selling your soul to hell, That’s why no magician ever used it yet. Shalaren looking at the world being destroyed and decides to offer his life to enable the spell, once he used the spell, lightning’s begun to hit the earth and all the demons have vanished as if they were never there. Shalaren’s power spreads all over Shalaren Metropolis, and turns it into a seal that will block dark energy from getting out of the underworld. Shalarenians gained special Strength that allows them fight all the rest of the demons. The spell's limit is that it only keeps larger demons away but smaller demons are able to penetrate the spell's shield because their dark energy is not as strong, the only way to summon the larger demons is by using dark magic, but with Shalaren's death, dark magic became the forbidden magic, and anyone who uses that magic will pay with their life because they are destroying what Shalaren died to protect, thus killing them is an act of respect, and that’s when the metropolis was named, Shalaren Metropolis now exists only to protect the planet from demons and keep the secrets of the underworld hidden from the rest of the world.

 

Everything was as usual in Shalaren Metropolis, Its people are generally kind, and the civilians were well trained. Demons were at bay and couldn’t harm anyone, until one day. Ewara and Ardiler were friends since they were kids, they were taking a walk on the streets of Shalaren Metropolis, everything was normal until they realized that someone was following them. He was getting closer and closer and began to run, it was a dark figure chasing them, they could hear howling, it wasn’t a human. Ewara and Ardiler turned around to face what they thought was a demon, but it gone, but then suddenly a long blade shaves its way through Ardiler’s body, Ewara turned around and was shocked to see the dark figure’s face, as if he knew him. Ewara ran as fast as he can to the church (it is known that demons can't enter sacred places) to tell his friend the priest everything that happened, he entered the church which was a brief, he warned the priest and decided to warn all the rest of the metropolis, but once he got out of the church, the dark figure waited for him outside, and killed Ewara. Something is going on in Shalaren Metropolis, and our hero Kathel the prince of Shalaren Metropolis went on a quest to find out what has killed these people and why.

[Tomo2000 60]

Frankly, I love the gloomy map with Mai in it, it looks really nice (in a gloomy way :biggrin_002: ). I love the HUD, too; it looks amazing. I'll be looking forward to playing this game.

[Kiriashi 117]

Looks really good - the title screen especially.

 

 

When can we expect a demo? :sweatdrop:

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

when I'll complete at least 15 minutes of the game O:, and fix my horrible grammer.

I still need to map some maps, and work more on the story, x:, would be faster if I had a team :<

*Shoots hand up* Well, That is if I could be usefull to you in any ways xDDD Durr... The best thing I can do is probably making titlescreens (GFX) or other things like that.

Ofc I can probably also make some small icons, But I dunno, I may not be perfect at that 0.0 Haven't tried. If it's spriting you need, I can do little stuff, or outline sketches, probably what almost everyone can do >.> I could test-play? xD

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

well, are you good with writing conversations? xD,

cause I need someone who can make the characters sound smart and stuff.

I mean make the conversations meaningfull to the story, cause im not good with that D:

Do you mean like... Tips for the game? :D

Or simply make them sound...loyal...or...like nerds...

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

no I mean, what the characters say in each conversations.

like in the act Romeo and Juliet, its written by Scene's besically.

like,

Scene #1 Inside the Church, Fredrick and Priest

Fredrick

Im telling you! I saw him! he's the one who used the dark magic!

Priest

I believe you! but it just seems unlikley to be him! has he killed all of these people?

Fredrick

I dont know, but he killed many for nothing.

and so on, just like writing a story, but in Scenes of conversations.

[gizmo00999 1]

Do you mean cutscenes? :D I really don't get what you mean.

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

sure, cutscenes xD but not event them, just write them like the example I showed you.

[gizmo00999 1]

Why couldn't I simply event them? :D Way faster. But hey, whatever you need.

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

because im using advanced msg scripit, so its more complicated then that, thats why I need the writing :P, and Ill event it my self.

[gizmo00999 1]

\f [file name here] Juliet: Art thou, romeo!

 

Was that hard? :D

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

actually its

"\p[0]\Name[Juliet]Art thou, romeo!"

and some are different o:

besides, it has to be easier at least for you, if you just write them.

[gizmo00999 1]

Yeah, Just PM me I guess when you need something written? =D Or do you perhaps have Steam? Skype?

[Shalaren Metropolis 0]

ok I edited the story, I would say its complete.
