UPDATE: JAN/22/07: The Demo is Finally released! Here's a link for the download! Its not long, and there's not much in it relating to the story. This is really just supposed to show that I'm getting the hang of RPGmaker2003! I hope you guys like it anyway!

Sons of Midgar Demo!

Sorry its late!
_____________________________________________________________

Update: 01/15/08: I just wanted to tell you guys a little bit more about my game!

They won't be in the Demo, but there a special spells called "Jeraphim" (Which was originally going to be the original Title of the game) that are very powerfull! Each character can learn 2. One you'll get at some point in the story, and another even more powerfull one you can learn by beating a secret boss. I did put one of these secret boss's in the demo, but toned him done so you can actually win... But he will be very difficult!

I also wanted to tell you that at the begining of the Demo, you'll start with only the Main character (Jesse), and by the end you'll have 3 of the members. And nothing in the Demo is going to be final... I might change quite a few things by the time the game is released (Hopefully by this summer), and because of that the demo will feel a little wierd... In the forest for example, you can only see the leaves of the trees, there's no actual tree! XP

And finally, I'm going to try and keep swearing to a minimum, even though I don't mind swearing.

The Demo will be released this friday. Although I'm not sure how many people will play it because CloverField comes out friday, and I am DEFINATLY going to see that!

_____________________________________________________________


Update: 01/11/08: So, The demo is almost done, I'm just finishing balancing out the boss, making sure he's not to hard, and looking for any typos. I've set the release date to be January 18. So a week from now.

I'm also sorry its been so long since I've came here. My life has been very busy! I hope you all can forgive me. I can't wait to show you the demo! I'll also be releasing the trailer for the demo this weekend. Just a simple little trailer with some screens...

And yes, Sons of Midgar is now the Final Title. Its fitting for the story.

"A young man named Jesse runs a delivery business with his best friend Jaranu. One day they recieve a Silver Box that is t be delivered to the King of Relak, thier small little nation. Little did they know that this little delivery run would send them on an adventure to not only save their home, but the entire universe."

I know, the whole "Humble begginings" thing is used a lot, but it just fits so well with so many RPGs! XP
_____________________________________________________________

Well, Sons of Midgar isn't the title for sure, but for now it is.

I don't plan on it being a big game, just a little project to help me get better with RPGmaker 2k3.

BTW, I know "Midgar" is from FF7, but I like the name of Midgar for a city.

I'm not sure if I'll be posting a demo (Because there will be a story, albeit a simple one...), or just waiting till I finish it, but either way, I can't wait till I can show you guys!

Making games (even if it's short and not the best) is a good way to learn how to use the programs in my opinion. And we'll be here to give tips and pointers if you need them.
I'm excited to see what you come up with! whee

Don't worry, I expect it to be AT LEAST some what horrible in the sense that the story feels rushed! It really is something I made off of the top of my head....

And as long as you don't go "LOL TAT R TEH SUCKS!1 LAWLS! UR TEH LOS3R!!1", its okay.

Also, I didn't add TONS of original stuff, (New magic and what not..) But I did add new weapons and some new enemys! One of the characters (Whom I named Jaranu, since i'm so pompous!) use's pistols and whatnot.

I think I might make a demo... still not sure though...

I at least hope to make the story MILDLY entertaining at least...

But as long as you guys are here to help, I'll survive.

You can be certain I won't sputter any nonsense like that. I'm not THAT expressive in internet slang. I suggest you make a demo first. Give us a little piece of what's to come

Well I really hope you decide to do a demo either way. smile

The demo wie very small unfortunatly, just the first little bit of the game.

It takes place from the starting which village (Which all the houses in it will not be accesible, just the one you need to go in) Then through the world map for a bit, across a bridge (That has the first Boss) and then through the first few parts of the forest Dungeon... well.. its not a dungeon, just a big a** forest! XD

Excellent..well, when ever you're ready, post er' up

So, here's a progress report on the demo.

Its about 80% done. I just have to finish making the first parts of the forest, make the boss fight a little bit harder (You can bet him at lvl 1 if you put your mind to it right now! XP), and maybe make a few more building to enter in the town if I feel like it...

I'm also trying to fix any typos, wrong sprites in the right place, and other thing that will take down the qaulity of the game. Don't worry, one day, I'll make another demo that takes place later in the game.

And I have decided on a realease date for the demo. Friday, Dec. 7th.

I hope my demo at least proves to be entertaining.

Hey guys, I will be releasing the demo friday for sure.

But I was working on the intro, and it seems to not be working. So the Game might or might not have an opening cinematic, depends whether I can fix the problem....
