Matthew

Weapon: Lances

Element: Unknown

Race: Human (?)

Personality: Matthew is quiet and a little aloof, but he mostly just goes along with what everyone else wants.

His main concern is finding his sister as he knows she's in danger, but a mysterious woman calls out to him...

Jou

Weapon: Bow/Arrows

Element: Lifamancy (White Magic, in lament terms)

Race: Human

Personality: Jou is one of the ArchAngel Sandalphon's Marines, and their Commander. She takes her job very seriously and has an equal enthusiasm for helping and protecting others.

Shindo

Weapon: Glocks

Element: Hydramancy (Water/Ice)

Race: Angel (although, her wings are undersized and useless)

Personality: Good hearted, but with a short temper. If she really dislikes something she can be a bit cold. Shindo is part of the Reaper's renegade group, the Eight-Span Crows. She seeks out people in her past life, even though it's typically a taboo thing to do. Namely this may dredge up things she's never learned to deal with.

Pirro:

Weapon: TBA

Element: Geomancy (Earth/Wind)

Race: Human

Personality: A laid back traveling merchant. He meets the group as they try to sneak into Sandalphon's castle. Pirro has a love for food and the beautiful Princess Meru. He is that best friend that is always there for you... or is he?

Meloni:

Weapon: Sword

Element: Pyromancy (Fire)

Race: ArchAngel

Personality: Meloni is actually the ArchAngel Sandalphon, reincarnated. He carries his sense of justice from being a cop into his newfound afterlife. He was once Shindo's adoptive father. Meloni is like a mentor and can be overly cautious, but he will go beyond the Law to acheive what he feels is just.

Angel:

Weapon: Staffs

Element: Lifamancy

Race: Angel

Personality: Angel is generally a bubbly girl who loves anything pink. She is super opinionated and spends her free time defending and harboring Witches. She was once lovers with Shindo before her death.

Element: Hydramancy / Necromancy

Race: Angel (bordering on Fallen/Demonic)

Personality: Scott was a serial killer in his past life and spends his days atoning by moping around his home of eternal rain in Adelphos, until the group finds him. He is Meloni's sworn rival and Shindo's older brother. When he isn't singing, he's usually being rude or womanizing to others.

Meru:

Weapon: Rods

Element: Fulmancy (Lightning)

Race: Witch (?)

Personality: Meru appears to be a spoiled person, but in reality she's very self-conscious. She loves attention and money, but she also cares deeply for those around her. She rules the Dome Kingdom, but at what price...?

Duckie:

Weapon: Cards

Element: Pyromancy / Necromancy (later: Pyromancy / Lifamancy)

Race: Human (?)

Personality: Duckie is Matthew's little sister, but she's anything but little. She has a tsundere personality (hotheaded) and wants nothing more than to be accepted as the adult she thinks she is. Where has she been all this time, and why?

Dream:

Weapon: Scythe

Element: Necromancy

Race: Reaper

Personality: Dream is of the Reaper race. He can transform between human, crow, and a large black bird, the size of a dragon. He is the leader of the Eight-Span Crows and will do anything to avenge the death of his family and destruction of his village at the hands of a Witch. He can be a bit judgemental in this regard and rarely shows emotion.

Star:

Weapon: Claws

Element: Fulmancy / Geomancy

Race: Drag-On

Personality: Star is chipper, spunky, and always on the look out for the love of her life. Not just because she was jipped in her past life, not because it's her only dream, but because she is next in line to help the near-extinct race of Drag-Ons. She's very dependable and will cheer someone up when their down. She's also easily excited.

Edgar

Weapon: Fishing Rod

Element: Chronomancy (Time Magic)

Race: Human

Personality: Edgar is a strange man that appears in many towns. If he is seeked out, one may gain access to a secret character for New Game+. Edgar is obscessed with everything Fishing and Clocks, but he may also have another, very important peice of the puzzle in regards to Perception's future and whether or not the group is truly doing what is right. He is laid back, but vigilant in seeking out the truth. What is Edgar's true purpose? Who is his missing friend?

??? (New Game + Exclusive)

Weapon Secret

Element: Chronomancy

Race: Human

Personality: Secret

Alec

Weapon: Schringe

Element: Hydramancy -> Necromancy

Race: Fallen

Personality: Alec starts off fairly aloof, but people like Jou just thought he acted that way for attention. There's something he's upset about,

but what would make him turn to the side of the enemy? He's quick to act in his own interests.

Ketal

[Picture Coming Soon]

Element: TBA

Race: Human

Personality: Ketal is a child who lost his parents to the war. He has since sworn to see to Jou's death at his hands

and doesn't hesitate to join Alec... or is he being brainwashed? Either way, this stubborn and one-track-mind young man

is wrapped up in things bigger than his own personal vendetta.

Andrea

[Picture Coming Soon]

Element: Holymancy / Geomancy

Race: Angelic

Personality: Andrea is a gentle woman who only wants to see everyone happy. Her husband is

her entire world and her herb shop backs up to Sandalphon's Castle. She pleads with Matthew and

the others to go get the rare herb, Athelas, to cure her husband's illness.

Battles use MogHunter's (and Tales Studio's) LMBS real time battle system (beta). There are 2 types of battle Skills: Aura and Techs, depending on the user. Mostly these are the same, with some variation as Aura is more magic based and Techs more physical.

Battles have Ground and Aerial moves.

The player controls one of 3 characters on the field in a linear line against enemy monsters.

Players can Equip Skills and use Items mid-battle.

Later in the game, elemental resistance/weakness will be a huge thing to pay attention to. Crafting good equiptment / affording good accessories will be a necessity.

+ MogHunter's LMBS beta battle system!

+ Mack sprites! (I love the tall sprites and even NPCs, ect. Will have them)

+ Affection Points (AP) effect many of numerous mini-endings in the game (and character pairings) ala Star Ocean or Tales series. The main way you gain AP is through CONVOs, which appear when prompted. They are similar to Private Actions / Skits. You can skip them if you like!

+ Special choices in game affect AP, items, skills, endings, and more~

+In-depth creation system allows for many different ways to make items, weapons, armor, accessories, food, and even skills!

+ Unique skills include Cooking, Weapon/Armor making, Pickpocket, and more.

+Fishing mini-game evented

+Gain EXP through battles, dilligent searching of areas

+No random battles; enemies are on-screen! They only respawn when you leave a map.

+Searching for things pays off... you may learn more about the world through NPCs and books, unlock sidequests, gain exclusive or early items, or even EXP.

+ 13 Recruitable Characters (12 and 1 New Game+)

+ NPCs with meaningful/humerous dialog, some reoccuring for special events! Text changes after big events plot-wise.

+ Custom graphics (for the most part)

+ Detailed sprites with special event movements (planned, you can see I've started this in the screenshots)

+Ambient noise brings rooms/areas to life

+ Battle Arena (planned)

+ No overworld map. Backtracking averted with teleportation device.

+ Villian isn't just evil-- he has a reason for doing what he does. I just can't spoil it here.

+ Enemies detect you when you reach their eyesight range!

+ Interactive environments involve puzzles, jumping, and climbing, as well as a close eye

*Woops, please ignore my media player lol

*Just a note about this particular shot.. the water has a special effect and it's not this bright at all. There's a lot of overlaying here that doesn't occur in-game as well.

Composer / Music: Looking for someone to compose all the music for my game ^^;

Sprite Artist: Someone who can work based on my designs to make the in-game sprites, battle sprites, and enemy battle sprites.

Voice Actors: This will be late, late in the project, but I need people to voice my main characters, namely for battle stuff.

+Known Bugs and Issues+

As of the most recent update, these are the known bugs:

Battles Crash - Battles crash due to "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'width' of null" sometimes. I found I was more likely to trigger this by rushing into battle as soon as it opens. Fix: Wait a few seconds and then proceed to hopefully avoid this glitch. I'll report it to Mog in the future, but I don't know if he/she plans on any updates to this battle system.

Passive Skills can be Equipped?! - Please don't equip Passive Skills (IE: Cooking, Fishing). I'm not sure how to fix this using Mog's system. All they do is take up a much needed slot in your menu...

Voices - The voices are what Mog included with the battle system demo. I tried turning them off and it would consistently crash the game. Therefore, I have to leave them in.
Fix: In the future, I will have voiced cutscenes and battle voice clips. Please be patient until this is implemented!

Text Run Off - The reason this demo was delayed so long was because I had to go back and shorten text. There may still exist some run off (and I know there is a lot of it in the bookshelves as I just didn't have time and felt it wasn't worth delaying the release of V.1 anymore...), but if you find any that is on an item, NPC, or in the main conversation, please report it below.

Long ago when the world was being created, there was a being known as Reminiscence. She was a god that helped create the mindset of all beings that lived on this newly created planet. She also began to create the memories of the people that were living on this planet to help them remember things that they had done. As years pass, the ten nations of the world declared war against one another for the rights of land and the rights to use elements known as Gaia. While the war was happening, the elements that were keeping the world alive were beginning to wither and was soon confronted by Gaia herself. Soon after, the people of the world put their differences aside and formed a truce to help bring their world back to health.

After a war over Gaia, people began to generate bad memories of the the war an began forgetting their pasts. A stray memory on the verge of passing was brought to Reminiscence and was given a second chance at life. She had giving him a special task to help stray forgotten memories to be brought back and kept safe until the person who had forgotten them could come in terms with their forgotten memories so that they can be remembered. Soon after, the stay memory was given the title of Kaiso Ari: Preserver of Memories

Thousands of years later, something was happening to the memories and Reminiscence. Kaiso had just found out after coming back with helping memories only to see that forgotten memories had started to become corrupted and out of control. He went to Reminiscence to confront her to see what was really happening, but was unable to convince her to change her mind as memories became corrupted under her influence. With all the power he had, he was able to seal her away until he was able to figure out a cure to bring her back to her old self. However, it was just too much for one memory to handle and thus he had enlisted other memories to help their fellow forgotten memories to be remembered as well as investigate the reason behind the corrupted memories.

As years pass, not only memories were being corrupted, but something suspicious is happening to the ten nations and the Gaia. Could it be possible that another war for Gaia is about to start...?

Wesley (can be renamed)

Age: 18

Species: Fox

Gender: Male

Job: Commoner

Favorite thing: Helping others

Dislikes: Working and being called Weasel

Fears: High frequency noises

A guy who had just moved out of his Mom's place to get a place of his own. However, he didn't realize how hard it would be living by himself. He managed to get a job at the Convenience Store to help cover bills that he's struggling to pay. When he isn't working, he likes to go around town asking people if they need help with anything to earn an extra bit of Zalon. At times, he can be a Mama's Boy because he's really close with his mother. He also has a father who is working at another town. From time to time, he gets letters about his dad's job. Once he gets things settled, he plans on making trips to and from his dad's work place so that they can bond a little.

While he was young, he had a yearning for adventure and would often imagine him and his friends going on a journey.

Zack

Age: 17

Species: Feline

Gender: Male

Job: Commoner

Favorite food: Grilled Salmon

Favorite thing: Gaming and being goofy around friends

Dislikes: Milk and people who are way too serious

Fears: The unknown

A cat with a goofy demeanor. However, he isn't always goofy and will lend an earn for anyone with problems in their current lives. Despite all of this, he prefers to spend most of his time playing games and going to the library to look up random things. When he isn't playing games, he likes hanging around his friends and talking about what the future might hold for them. When he's feeling really gutsy, he sometimes likes to playfully flirt with Wesley's mom. He doesn't mean anything by it, but it certainly gets Wesley's blood boiling.

While he was younger, him and his friend Wesley would like to pretend that they were going on an adventure by exploring every single corner of their small town: Talkia.

Wilfre

Age: 20

Species: Fox

Gender: Male

Job: Commoner

Favorite food: Unknown

Favorite thing: Unknown

Dislikes: Selfish people

Fears: Unknown

A person who is rather reserved and very formal when talking. Wilfre is very calm and logical about certain situations. However, he can become easily annoyed at times at some people who would much rather act first than to think. Everything about him is still unknown. His two friends, Zack and Wesley, still have no idea what he is actually like. Still, both Wesley and Zack welcome him and offer to invite him over to play games and do other things. When he isn't being bothered, he usually spends most of his time inside his house. His windows and doors are always locked shut. Not once has Wesley nor Zack stepped foot inside... Whatever it may be, Wilfre will always be a mystery to them.

Bryan (Bonus Chapter character for the demo)

Age: Unknown

Species: Wolf

Job: Unknown

Gender: Male

Mom (No name has been given yet...)

Age: 41

Species: Fox

She is Wesley's mother. Nothing more to say other than that she is really close to Wesley. Being his mother and all, she usually comes to save the day if she knows her baby isn't being fed well.

Cat Girl (Only available in the demo!)

Age: 18

Species: Cat

Gender: Female

She's a treasure hunter, but she is too lazy to go look for any of it. Instead, she instructs the player that there are some Easter Eggs hidden by some guy that she cannot remember the name of at the moment. Once you find all of them, she wants you to bring them back. Not entirely sure what she means, but it sounds important enough.

??? (Only available in the demo!)

Age: 26

Species: Human

Gender: Male

Who is this guy? He lives in a small house just outside of a city called Damin... There's a note on the door saying something about his lost treasure and will reward the player for finding all of them. We likes rewards, don't we?! Let's get looking!

Well it is a beat'em up rpg made in rpgmaker vx ace.

I was inspired by 90s beat'em ups but still utilizing the rpg elements of rpgmaker.

The game has its own unique art style all hand drawn and animated by me, because I was trying to get as far away from default rpgmaker as I could.

All characters are large sized sprites that have 32 frames of animation per movement type.

Meaning that walking, running, fighting ex. has 8 frames per direction.

I have so far 149 frames of animation over 28 different animations per character. (not all the animations are 8 frames just the base ones)

When I first started brainstorming this game two years ago I was influenced by a foreign movie called D13 U or district 13.

It helped me shape the story it is now as well as give me a direction to work off of.

Other things also influenced me but that movie was a major one.

The story starts off with a news broadcast about a man made island created off the coast of the main continent.

The island has been quarantined off after a recent nuclear explosion from the nuclear power plant went off; and the resulting event
has prevented all residents living on the island from leaving.

The resulting events have lead people to believe that the whole thing was a coverup for something else.

You are one of those people who believe that the events told by the media were a hoax used to coverup something worse.

The island was made by the local government to house the rich and powerful of the nation, as a way to segregate the rich from the poor.

Though this was the original intention of the island the local crime bosses found a way to live on the island and influence the habitats of the island.

So you are playing as an A.I.D. (Akeria Intelligence Division) agent who is investigating a recent surge of disappearances that has been going on for a while.

You believe that the events of the nuclear scare has something to do with the missing people.

So you decide to take matters into your own hands and you go to the quarantined island hoping to find answers, but what you find may not be what you were looking for.

The story is a dark comedy where it will have moments of gloom and despair but i will also have light hearted and funny moments.

The basic game-play of the game is you are trying to solve an on going mystery, so puzzles and dialogue choses are used more often then the beat'em up part,
but the player has the option to play it however they want.

If you want to punch everything in the face you can do that, if you want to be more diplomatic you can do that to and any combination in between.

There are also stealth sections in the game that the player may choose to fight there way through or sneak there way through and take out enemies silently.

Yes I have programmed sneaking mechanics into the game, I am quite proud of them to be honest.

There is a karma system involved with the players actions so curtain events are only available to a certain karma level.

There are persuasion checks for dialogues to see if you influence them or not in the way you want.

There will be a romance system for followers.

I am planning on making mini games that the player can choose to do or not.

Combat is a bit unique in that you need to pay attention to the fight, you can button mash but it works better if you try to
fight a little smarter then that.

You can block incoming attacks and prevent damage.

Punching or kicking them has a chance to knock the npc back to allow comboing them.

All fighting abilities like punch, kick, block are all stamina based where if you run out of stamina you cannot fight anymore, and most
recover your stamina.

Blocking recovers stamina as well as the recovery animation when your stamina drops to zero.
 
Certain items also increase your stamina and hp, like typical rpg items for those things.

There is no game-over in my game, If you lose a fight you will be put in an area related to where you lost the fight.

You can move on from there and continue adventuring, meaning if you lose a fight in the back alley they will toss your beat up body into a nearby trash can,
which then you will get up and resume the game. (It's story related as to why they do this to you instead of other stuff)

Later on I will implement other events that will happen when you lose.

I just don't personally like game over screens they are boring to me.

Now the down side to losing is that your maximum hp will drop by 10 every time you lose, but will not drop below 50.

This is a balancing thing I did so the player can't spam dying, regain full health, and then beatup every body again.

It prevents the player from not caring about losing a fight.

Another thing that is in early development is cutsenes.

There are not going to be many of them both due to the fact they take a while to make, and also because to many cutsenes pull the player out of the game.

The dialogue for when you talk to an npc of importance will show the characters with there full body images talking to one another,
kind of like how a visual novel does it.

You can drive cars in this game to, well they are a little odd right now, but I still think they are cool.

I am mostly an artist and animater, with three years of visual basic experience.

I have dived into animation and mesh creation on the cg side, but not as much as the other two.

I am hoping to be able to make cgi movies in the future.

Making this game has taught me a hell of a lot in animation, art, and programming.

I have grown so much in these two years that I have spent on this game, even if I do not succeed at making anything for my efforts
off this game at least the experience is well worth the effort.

The main reason I made this game is to help me acquire the funds I need to get asobe flash, and if I do really well autodesk maya.

My dream goal as a career is to become a professional animator for movies I want to make and game designer; Though much smaller games then this one.

I would like to help out other people like me who are making games for kickstarter to try to reach there goal.

I have a deep respect for anybody who puts the time and effort into making a game and I believe they should all have
a chance at success.

So what I was thinking was that while my kickstarter is public I would also go to other kickstarters
that are related to mine and help them out by letting the people who help me out know about them to.

Kickstarter has a bad rap when it comes to rpgmaker games on there, most people do not give it the time of day
and I can understand why.

There are alot of shovelware out there in regards to kickstarter where most don't try and hope
to make big.
 
Even though this maybe true, there are also people out there who put their heart and soul into their work.

So I may be broke now but in the future I plan to help out as many of them as I can and this kickstarter is just the begining of
something much more, and I hope you will give me a chance.


I have notied that when play testing this with friends and family they can do some real damage to my game if they tried.

What I mean is I had both my friend and my uncle open the save files created by rpg maker using notepad, and they were able to change
the variables of my game.

I mean everything is stored in those save files, triggers, custom script data, ex.

What I am asking is if there is a way to encrypt those save files when they are made, so the user can't edit them.

The ini file that comes with the game, when I compress the game data it does not store the game ini, which has the name
of my game and runtime dll location in it.

It just leaves it there to be edited by anybody and they can change the title of my game to whatever they want.

Thankfully it's not game breaking but still annoying.

If you know the answers to these problems let me know.

Classical Age World is just what the title suggests, and more; a game set in the classical age of Earth, all of earth. It emulates nations and generates npcs randomly which have life death cycles, as well as birth cycles. The player may choose any position in the game, from ordinary citizen, to leader of their own nation.

Open World, in the since that you may go anywhere any time, and do anything anytime; RPG; civ emulator; and historical fantasy (ish). additionally, survival mechanics, as well as an anthropological educator.

Game itself: 2%; Scripts: 5%; Images: 2%; Maps: 1%; Events: (to be determined); Quests: 0%; Music: 0.5%; Game Mechanics: 3%; Items, Weapons and Armor: 0.5%; Classes: 100%; Tiles: 10%

Basically people to bounce ideas off of. If anyone is willing to contribute something, it is always welcome.

Humanity awaits a hero whom can assimilate the world under one rule. Only time will tell if that hero will go his/her own way, or join forces with an existing peoples to achieve world peace. Events throughout the game occur, which are triggered by various factors, such as population effecting outbreaks of disease, famines and riots.

The hero may come from a handful of existing nations. There is an optional epic quest line which is about self discovery, which takes the hero on a journey across the earth, in search of deeper understanding of the world, the people in it, and the hero themselves.

World Peace is achievable by many ways, and each culture expects a different means of doing so. Wise decision making can be the difference between a genocide, and harmonious antiquity.

Migrations can occur based on factors such as resources and territorial dominance.

Romance is something featured in the game, which can lead the player to a greater purpose, in having children, and even becoming royal to a lineage of ruler(s).

Titles and Ranks help the player progress through employment and servitude. And can be the difference in paying full taxes or not, as well as putting the hero in charge of advising a leader of a faction diplomatically, economically, and legally.

This sort of thing is randomly generated, and there really is nothing set in stone as default for the game.  There are however, factions set in stone, so to say, which are subject to assimilation and/or destruction if they prove too weak or foolish.

The playable factions (meaning the player may be a citizen of in creation of a new character) are:

Rome

The Citizen as a Player.

The Faction Symbol:

Galatians

Albania

Jerusalem

Parthia

Yadavas

Kush

Himyarites

In the land knows as Aldea, there was a forcefield against chaos known as the Chalcegate, created by the Larian family at the beginning of life. In each generation of Larians, one at the age of 18 would be picked to merge their power with the Chalcegate, for as long as it was energized, its protection would last, and it would never break.

However, one dark day, one of the Larians turned against his own brother. He wanted to be the one to power the Chalcegate. Out of jealousy, he attempted to kill his brother and destroy the Chalcegate, bringing havoc to the kingdom they were destined to protect, for if he couldn't have the Chalcegate, no one could.

The chosen brother, however, saw how evil consumed the other and decided to put an end to this. However, he couldn't bring himself to kill him. Instead, he sealed his brother's soul inside of the Chalcegate for eternity.

~*PRESENT DAY*~

In the Azalea Woods, there is a tiny town called Veilyn. Here, we have the Veilyn Training Academy, a school for students that wish to learn how to fight. We meet a boy named Talc Reone, and a girl named Loki Handola. During their first field exam, they find a strange shard, so beautiful it's impossible to look away. A couple of days that, a new student joins the academy, a girl named Rune, who befriends our two protagonists. Later that night, however, when they head back into the forest, two young siblings named Jasper and Opal are waiting for them and attempt to rob them.

Rune then explains that the Chalcegate was destroyed, and that she was on a mission to find all seven of its shards before Jasper and Opal do, for she must get there first to regain her full power. Talc and Loki are now tangled up in this situation. What will happen to them on their grand adventure?

Talc Reone

Age: 17

Class: Warrior

Talc likes to play bodyguard, often going out of his way to protect those he cares about. He’s friendly, outgoing, and brave. Buuut he can be a little TOO outgoing. If it weren’t for Loki being with him, his mischievous nature probably would’ve gotten him killed by now.

Loki Handola

Age: 16

Class: Tempest

Loki has a more reserved nature than Talc. She’s kind, a bit timid, playful, and has a motherly nature towards the ones she cares about. She’s the one that has to hold Talc back most of the time.

Rune Luminas

Age: 18

Class: Seraph

Rune is INCREDIBLY reserved, quiet, and in general is very monotone. They very much keep to themselves, but behind that monotone mask is a very kind-hearted and a tad playful. They tend to let this playful side show whenever they make a pun, Talc and Loki just so happening to hear it. With a strong but blind belief it’s their destiny, they're determined to bring back the Chalcegate no matter what.

Renner Arkos

Age: 18

Class: Amphoras

Renner is the embodiment of cold-hearted and determined. He’ll do anything to get to the Chalcegate before Rune does, even if he has to fight them for it….until he eventually joins the party. His cold outer shell is just a shell, though. Deep down, he does care for others and wants to protect the ones he cares about. However, he’s not 100% boring and humorless. He can crack a joke whenever he feels it’s necessary, and does enjoy going along with Talc’s mischievous antics.

• Quest system - Do some questing for others while in the middle of your main one and earn some gold or XP!
• Co-op puzzles - Make your party members work as a team to solve puzzles and go through dungeons.
• Multiple parties - Don't just focus on Talc, Rune and Loki as one big group...have them in different groups, too!
• Minigames - Play some fun minigames to pass the time, whether it be gambling, or maybe something more fun.
