TALES OF THE EXODUS

Hi! i will post some game history while i'm ready to post som screenshots :)

History:

In a distant future humankind leaves its home planet in search for a new future in other worlds. Twelve gigantic spaceships called Arks, each Ark containing terraforming equipment and cryogenized people.

The Arks and its escort where were traveling at hyperluminal speeds, when the onboard systems detected an anomaly.

There was no time to stop the spaceships or to change the course without destroying themselves. The computer didn´t even awoke wake the crew, and entered the anomaly leaving current space and time.

The Ark emerged near an alien solar system and the onboard computer awoke the crew because it was headed in collition course with a planet. The crew tried their best to stop the gigantic spaceship, but they couldn't. As a last resort measure they activated the shields at maximum potency and crash landed.

There where were a lot of casualties, and the escort didn't arrived. Using their terraforming equipment the survivors created a small outpost and caves to live in but the escort didn't came come, despite the Ark's emergency signal.

Those events happened 500 years ago and the outpost became a small town. Almost all technology that was not taken away by the Ark's guardians - in order to preserve the cryogenized people-, was destroyed by local creatures known as Morphers.

They where were waiting, and when the distress call system power source was nearly depleted a response arrived.

——

The general game idea is to create a game with game style/mechanics similar to Chrono Trigger and maybe some puzzles like Alundra.

Because of this statement, I came across the following:

- Really long run-on sentence

Other than that, sounds interesting. We shall see how the final product comes along.

If you're gonna correct someone on their punctuation and grammar, at least do so with proper punctuation and grammar yourself.
