In the world of C, life is good.  Everyone is all happy and stuff, and the Golden Mango spread its light over the land, giving everyone in C bragging rights over the adjectant countries.  But one day, somebody stole it.  (Saw that coming)  Monsters immediately broke in, but fortunately they were kept in check, because several of the villagers in most towns are accomplished fighters for no good reason.  To circumvent the monsters, they invented airships (later changed to Underairships) light crystals, locks, and all that good stuff.  Of course, nobody would be truly happy again until the Golden Mango was returned, so they could gloat to the surrounding countries.  That's where you come in.
Your Name Here: ShowHide
You are one of 6 classes of your choice (Warrior, Cleric, Mage, Infighter, Gunner, and Ninja) from the human world.  One day you woke up in C, and you decided to find a way out and get revenge on me for using such a cliched plot device.  Later on, you get drawn into the massive manhunt for the Golden Mango and discover a massive secret about the world of C.  I won't go into detail, but it involves toilet paper.

Henry: ShowHide
A thief accomplished at breaking into jails (but, unfortunately, not out of them) he teams up with you when you are thrown in jail for having a spiffy hairdo.  His abilities allow you to take other people's stuff when you're too lazy to buy your own.

Gruff: ShowHide
Trained in the healing arts, his purpouse is to make you feel better when you're sad, restore your vigor, and help you do what you need to do.  So, he's basically medieval coffee. 8)

Eliza: ShowHide
This princess has fallen into the clutches of the dark arts.  A little after you meet her during your rescue attempt to save a kidnapping hostage (she kidnapped a dragon) she joins your party to help you find the Golden Mango, so she can steal it herself.

You'll meet many other eccentric individuals, and a few of them will even join your party.  I'm not going to give away too much, but I will say that one of the newest and one of the most well-known Chaos Project members will appear...

On another note, I don't really need anyone for the project.  This is mostly solo...  But I'll post here again if I need help.

And now, screenshots!  I just have to finish the demo by Monday so Starrodk86 can move it... :D  Joy.

Screenshot 1: ShowHide

Screenshot 2: ShowHide

Screenshot 3: ShowHide

Screenshot 4: ShowHide


So, what do you think?

NEW NOTE: This game sucks too much.  I am now making it with Blizz-ABS in hope that some of Blizzard's awesomeness will rub off on me.

Gosh, it's even worse than what you said to me at school.  :<_<:

Though I have one notice that I'm going to cripe about because it's causing an inconsistency.

QuoteOf course, nobody would be truly happy again until the Golden Mango was returned, so they could gloat to the surrounding countries.  That's where you come in.

This suggests your main goal is to recover the Golden Mango, or it hints at it.

QuoteOne day you woke up in C, and now your quest is to find a way out and get revenge on me for using such a cliched plot device.

But it says here the quest is to get revenge on you.

It doesn't make pure sense...are these two quests happening at once? I think you should mention the Golden Mango still in the first box.

EDIT: I suggest you should edit your signature to now redirect to this topic. If you don't know how to do it, simply copy and paste the following BBCode into your signature:

What's osu!? It's a rhythm game. Thought I should have a signature with a working rank. ;P It's now clickable!
Still Aqua's biggest fan (Or am I?).

If this game ever get's done, by golly I'm gonna play it!
Do you like ambient/electronic music? Then you should promote a talented artist! Help out here. (I'm serious. Just listen to his work at least!)

OK, then.  I'll fix that...
And thanks for the BB Code.  I was wondering how you did that here!

Can't wait for some screenshots or a demo though, I want to see how your skill works in the RMXP environment.

I completely agree with Fantasist. Funniest game idea ever. Definitely something I'm gonna want to play.
Stuff I've made:

it made sense for me.

Uh-oh. (You'll see why when you see the demo)

Actually, I will need a beta tester if this ever gets finished :^_^':
Preferably several.  Guess I should put something in Projects/Testers Recruitment once I make the demo... but I'll make sure to let you beta :)

Yes, I'm quoting this again.  Specifically, because I have screenshots!  Last chance to decide not to play it before the demo comes out!

You have good screenshots, but you need to remove the Beginner taste out of them. For example, on the boss battle with Rick Astley, eradicate that blue-like border, and maybe just show a bust of him rather than that portrait, who knows. Screenshot 1 is perfectly fine, Screenshot 2 needs to have more zing and zazz to it to show more detail.

And Arshes does not have a spiffy hairdo, get rid of that placeholder! D: XD

Sally

you could do better on the maps, try not to keep them wide open like that, make the rooms smaller, and fill them up, and add a bunch of cool stuff, and the 2nd screenshot, more trees and plantlife, screenshot 3, dont use that hero :O, screen 5, um dont use diffrent style of battlers and sprites or it just looks very akward.

I can't tell if this game is serious or not, so I'm not going to critique on the off chance that it's a total joke like Eye of the Tiger

I shut off the beta testing list a while ago, but hey, I can make an exception.  I need as many people insane enough to play this as I can. XD
And I don't need a mapper now, I just needed one back then.  I didn't even know how to make walls that weren't vertical XD
