yup, i've been on a roll for 64 quest after visiting seaworld last night, and i packed togethert alot of stuff and improved the game by alot, and i'm very far with spells as well! so i decided to release some screenies of progress that i've made!
<img src="http://64digits.com/users/vanhelsing/screen1.PNG">just a screenie.<img src="http://64digits.com/users/vanhelsing/screen2.PNG">a chunk of the story.<img src="http://64digits.com/users/vanhelsing/screen3.PNG">me using greater fire cannon, a level 6 spell that dishes out loads of damage to large foes, but only a little to smaller ones.i plan to release a beta demo sometime after i complete EVERY SINGLE SPELL, so that might take about 2-3 days, so if anyone has a idea for a spell, please tell me, especially level 9 spells, they're the best type of spell and i need one for each element, so list your ideas for level 9 spells please and i'll see if i can accept them! i also need summons still, so if anyone wants to become a summon, please leave your name and ability, i will list out the current spells i have created as well as summons and main characters starring in the game, so check back soon!the list for the current users signed up will be below, and will remain there.users that are signed up:vanhelsingHeroofTime55 squeekyreaperaura_of_endfirestormXludamadfirebirdgamehawkzac1790etpaynrezjakexchikensnakemanspenser.45bob799metalgearacid10gml_joseahootie_hoopenguin_dudeall 20 users have been signed up!current summons:lvl1. ciribotlvl2. squeakyreaperlvl3. aura_of_endlvl4.

(i was short of originality on that list)lvl 2 spells: mana bolt, fireball, heal lvl1, earth shield lvl1. (i'll add a large glossary to the game infomation on what the spell is and it's effect, i'll make that sometime.)lvl 3 spells: greater mana bolt, fire barrier, cure ailments lvl1, N/A (i don't have the lvl 3 earth spell yet, o plz give me an idea for it)lvl 4 spells: shock burst, greater fire barrier, waterfall, N/A (neither is there a level 4 earth spell)lvl 5 spells: quad shocker, fire cannon, heal lvl2, earth barrier lvl2lvl 6 spells: N/A, greater fire cannon, N/A, N/Alvl 7 spells: no lvl 7 spells created yetlvl 8 spells: N/A, N/A, heal lvl3, earth barrier lvl3lvl 9 spells: no lvl 9 spells created yetyeah, it's one helluva list, so i still need some higher level spell ideas, though i'm planning for a level 7 earth spell to be rock burst, where a massive spiked rock juts out of the ground and more burst along in a line until it hits a block. so please people, i need some ideas! thanks again,~vanhelsing~
Hmm…
-Don't use pillow shading-Don't use Game Maker's effects generator in a pixel art game.I see you went through with our suggestions.
Also, your banner boggles my mind.@polystyrene um, i'm not really the sort that understands what alot of words mean, so what exactly is pillow shading,and why not use the effect generator? you haven't seen it move in-game yet!
@jakeX yup, i went with most of your guy's suggestions, i'm even currently working on adding some shortcut buttons where you can store a spell for quick use, it's mindless work though, and how does my banner boggle your mind? [:D]Looks better. :D
I like how you set up the HUD. Just make the numbers more centered.For another summon, you could have me fly past the screen, killing all of the weaker enemies. XPAlso, an example of pillow shading is the sprite for the ground that you used.ah, i see. i'll fix that sometime. and i think that summon COULD be arranged, though i might need a different effect… killing the weaker enemies by using you may create some situations in the game very simple to pass, especially for one little idea i have planned in the future.
You like Final Fantasy 3 huh?
XD!I better pwn EVERYTHING when I am summoned. I just like…appear…and the screen goes black…and it says "PWNAGE" in big red letters and then everything is dead.
I thought I told you to add me.
Well, add me.oh sorry. i must've accidently forgotten to add u GML, srry! and twister, you'll give me the ability to be able to cast ancient magic, which is a much more powerful form of magic, which just so happens to be the level 9 spells, so you must be summoned in order to cast any level 9 spells! sound good enough?
and i like FF3? i've never even played it before though… :(btw, my nickname is "gml_josea", not "GML_josea", in lowercase.
