rpgs and castles

Posted by thernz on March 5, 2011, 12:38 a.m.

so remember when i was working on a rpg maker vx rpg

well you probably dont but i decided to start making custom graphics for it instead

it's based off of bof4, but with a different color palette

i will continue editing it so that it looks like a frank frazetta palette

im thinking of just restarting the whole thing in gm

and then i had an idea to make my own castlevania game because a lot of castlevania fan games just have plain bad level design and superfluously added elements. and they're all clunky as fuck in controls. in a bad way, not the way that the classicvanias were designed with the controls in mind. here, they're just

bad

so i started a belmont sprite. im not sure how i want to design dracula though. i want it to be a pretty subdued game. no fancy moves or that shit. just focus on flowing level design and textural landscapes. and no story because fuck that.

the design is inspired by ps2 rygar and the classicvanias. i didn't want too much brawn.

im trying to think of a pretentious name for it. all i have is

castle beyond the forest

nothing playable will probably arise from either projects. but on the bright side, i am going to watch conan the barbarian next week. and it is spring break.

god night.

I keep getting into RPG Maker and finding myself wanting to go to something more flexible myself.

Last time I seriously did anything in RPG Maker was in '99, I had made a large world RPG were you were a cat-girl treasure hunter in search of shiny objects of no real value.

I could upload the old version of Peklo RPG but anything interesting was probably taken from someone else's script, and anything buggy is probably my fault. The whole thing will get a redesign if I start over in GM though.
