ALPHA REVIEW BY CHAOSIAN: http://www.rpgmakervxace.net/blog/453/entry-1441-ixias-stellar-complex-alpha-review/ DOWNLOAD http://www.mediafire.com/download/ucx9rq5ibepjcxc/Ixias_-_Stellar_Complex_1.0.zip Ixias - Stellar Complex is an old-school RPG set in a futuristic dystopian city. It has been over 60 years since the Great Augmentation Scandal that unleashed a worldwide epidemic of mutations caused by implants meant to enhance human abilities. During these long years, the world has become mostly uninhabitable wasteland where massive cities have risen as the only shelters. The wasteland is crawling with Turinquas, the mutants, and not even the cities are completely safe. You are Taiki Yukigan, an agent of the Black Tower corporation that specializes in Turinquas related problems, as well as simply trying to keep the Turinquas problem contained. After discovering a grisly murder, that is tied to numerous corporations, as well as the Turinquas, you are thrown into the middle of a worldwide conspiracy. Your mission is to find the murderer, and tear down the veil of secrecy! !!! WARNING !!! While the game does NOT contain any R18 content, some of the language and themes in the game are extremely foul and may not be suitable for everyone. If you're very squeamish with things like murder, poverty, sexuality, misogyny, prostitution, drugs, etc, you probably shouldn't play the game. Believable, futuristic world A large game world spanning over four major districts and numerous other locations, all of which are insanely detailed and well thought-out. Hub-based exploration with over 50 side-missions. Once the main districts are unlocked via the story, the player can travel between them completely freely. Deep storyline Storyline filled with mystery and intrique, exploring deep subject matters ranging from social structures to the very existence of life. There's enough lore to tackle that you can expect many sequels to come. Epic adventure Storyline, side-missions, endgame and countless secrets. All in one 20+ hours long cyberpunk adventure. Custom soundtrack Entire soundtrack with over 20 themes, composed solely for this game, to create the unique vibe of a dystopian city. Hacking System to bypass security Simple hacking minigame to bypass security doors, laser walls as well as computers and safes. No random encounters All encounters can be seen on the map beforehand. Heavily scripted to ensure a unique experience Thanks to Yanfly's amazing engine, and several other carefully picked scripts, I've been able to make my visions true with minimum amount of compromises. Achievements and Collectibles Over 40 achievements and numerous collectibles that actually make a difference. Free Ixias - Stellar Complex is 100% free to play. The city is a place for dozens of characters, but these are the playable ones and the characters in the middle of the story. Searching for a new crystal core in Broken Bridge.

If you do not like ecchi, erotica (not that this game has reached the level of erotica yet, but it might one day. not entirely sure on that), harems, perverts, profanity, or homosexuality (specifically Yuri/lesbians), I would suggest going and playing a different game. Abstract: This is the game I’ve been working on for the past few months. I got about 1 and a half hours of playtime done in the first week of production, and then progress slowed horribly about the same time I joined this forum… hmmm, I wonder if that’s just coincidence…. anyways, this is a rather light-hearted game, with randomly occurring moments of darkness, such as the mass murder of an enti…. I’m shutting up before I spoil something. This game is mature, to the point of being ALMOST pornographic, ALMOST being the operative word here. At worst, it gets to be implied erotica, so, for example, you'll see the before, you'll see the after, you'll see (Read) some foreplay, but you won't see the actual event. I'm also not using any pornographic images so, yea, this is not a adult rated game. Moving on, here’s some in depth info about my game. Game Title: Lost Creation Genre: fantasy RPG Average Demo Time: ~3 hours, give or take Game Progression: ………… I have no idea when I’ll be done with this game. I have no idea how many characters I’ll have, nor do I have any idea how far along with the story I am. Recruitment: I’m not looking for any recruits to help me as of now. Story / Setting / Purpose: The player plays as Kara Heartfelt, the Newly-made Pirate Lord. Well, what is the first-ever female pirate lord doing? The answer would be looking for a reason to exist. I mean, come on, she’s the Pirate Lord for crying out loud, the single most feared and powerful person alive, you think towns and cities are going to try to fight back against such a fearsome and legendary opponent when said opponent comes to raid and steal from them? No, they’re going to give this opponent whatever they want, for fear of instant annihilation. This situation forces Kara into an existential crisis. If no one fights back against her, then there’s no challenge, no fun, in going to go raid people. There’s no point in doing so. So one day, she finds a girl lying on the beach. And so, with this girl, Kara sets out into the world once more, seeking meaning in her life beyond just spending time with her crew and taking whatever she wants form whoever she wants. Character Bios: Sorry for lack of pics, I have yet to get myself a photobucket account, or anything similar, so, you can just use your imagination for now as to what the characters look like... or you can play game Main characters - forced. Forced as in, you will, no matter what, have these characters in your party at some point. Kara Heartfelt: This is the main character, the new Pirate Lord, and the first female Pirate Lord. (I’m aware that pirates have been getting a lot of attention lately (See: One Piece and Pirates of the Caribbean) but please bear with me on this). She is very quick-witted and extremely smart and skilled in the ways of stealth and assassination. Her short temper and perversion (she at times shows herself to be Hyodou Issei-level perverted, but generally has more control then him) often make others view her as a spoiled brat, leading them to underestimate her capabilities. She is also rather popular with the ladies (if you’re homophobic, this isn’t the game for you). Word for the wise: She loves her crew, mess with them at your own risk. Ester (lacks a last name due to memory loss, currently using the last name “Heartfelt†as an alias, and no, the acquisition of this last name is not something you’ll see quite yet. I have her acquisition of this last name evented, but in one of the areas that the player can’t get to yet, see the “Known Issues†segment for more information on those areas ): Ester is a girl found by Kara in the beginning of the game. She was lying on a beach, totally lacking any and all memories excluding her own name. Kara initially judges her as a cute innocent big-breasted klutz, and so challenges Ester to a battle, the terms being safe passage to the nearest town, and some gold if Ester wins, and being forced to join Kara’s crew (the Pirate lord simply must have a crew am I right?) if Ester loses. While initially wanted simply for her looks and apparent innocence, Ester proves to be a capable fighter, which only raises her ranking in Kara’s eyes. Ester’s ignorance about the world and her innocent aura drive the crew to be infatuated with her almost immediately, with most pledging to protect her from the resident perverts ( See: Kara and Shinichi). Terence Noranderfell: Terence is Kara’s first mate and loyal to his captain to a fault. Terence is initially described by Kara as the “Strong Silent Typeâ€, though often speaks a bit too much to be considered as such, so just imagine him as speaking quietly, without much emotion, if any at all. He gives off the aura of an honorable knight, which may lead some to wonder how he got to be first mate of the Pirate Lord. Well, I actually haven’t figured this part out yet I’m not saying here, too big of a spoiler, though, some allusions to a dark past are made. Isabelle Mornlost: There isn’t much I can say here about Isabelle without spoiling part of the storyline. Isabelle was a normal girl living in the town of Devonsville, until something really bad happened to the town. That’s about all I can say as far as history goes without spoiling to badly. She at first seems a little down and dejected, but quickly adopts a bright and bubbly personality. Soran Seiver: Soran is a mining captain working in Galrie Mines, which recently had a cave in. He is shown to have a past connection with Kara but they don’t go into detail about it. Personality-wise, he is meticulous about his mines, and loves rare ores and minerals. He also cares about the well-being of his crew, to the point of going into the mine after the cave in to try and rescue some that had not made it out, going in before the miner that had made it out had much of a chance to get in there. Also a Masochist. More to be added later Main characters - optional. Optional as in, you are not guaranteed to get these characters into your party, you actually have to work for them. so ha. (no optional characters can be obtained as of yet) Lucy Woren (not yet actually introduced due to me still working out the mechanics of the ADV. Guild, and thus having closed off that area for the time being): Lucy is a maid/attendant/clerk/barkeep/whatever else needs to be done in the Adventurer’s guild in Rinnesport. Despite not initially recognizing Kara, she quickly realizes who it is she’s talking to, (Kara is a gold ranked member of the ADV.Guild) and turns out to be a diehard fangirl, thinking nothing of not only ignoring Ester’s lack of proper identification papers when Kara takes Ester to sign up to join the ADV.Guild as a side job to her current position as a member of Kara’s Crew, but also returns to Kara the money offered as a bribe to ignore said lack of papers without a moment’s hesitation, doing it simply because it was Kara who asked her to, albeit indirectly. She does not initially join Kara’s crew (though obviously would without hesitation is asked) but instead joins later at a point not currently determined. More to be added later Side characters-Crew Simon: Simon is a bright and cheerful young lad, and the crew’s resident mage. He is also the newest member of the crew until Ester comes along. He is often shown to have a little less common sense then some of the other crew members. Also, Kara likes to abuse his magic for small, silly things, like making sure she can maintain a spa in the captain’s quarters without having to worry about the water splashing out, even in a heated sea battle between several fleets. Lance: The crew’s resident dog very helpful person that helps with everything that needs being done. He is very light hearted, like most of the crew, and is hinted to be an extreme a slight Masochist. Shadow: Someone much more deserving of the designation “Strong Silent Type†then Terence ever was. Shadow rarely speaks more than two or three words at a time. He is about as light-hearted as the rest of the crew, but is horrible in the practice of the forbidden art of “socializing†so his light-heartedness almost never shows. He’s better with a dagger then even Kara John: The oldest member of the crew, he plays the part of the crew’s “wise elderâ€. He’s also in charge of piloting the ship (at the current point in the game’s progression, the player does not actively pilot the ship, so this is a non-issue) Dan: Dan is one of the four sole possessors (alongside John, Shadow and Terence) of the mysterious power known as “Common Sense†among our jolly crew. Dan often mediates arguments between crew members, and has a very high tolerance to alcohol. He’s good in a fight, possessing great strength, and is able to one-hit K.O just about anything with a single punch. For some reason, he has zero defensive power, and is normally out cold himself after 2 or 3 hits, so he often helps the crew by doing tasks such as heavy lifting... or brick wall breaking.... whichever one the situation calls for. Shinichi: Shinichi is a heavily armored Pervert. A male Kara if you will, only without the authority, respect, popularity, and skill with a dagger. He is often used as the butt of jokes made by the crew… though sadly, these jokes are heavily steeped in fact, such as when they’re discussing him stealing Kara’s underwear. As far as Alcohol resistance goes… think of him as being the converse of Dan. Screenshots: Enter Ester Bats on a Beach? What was I thinking? Meet the Crew… or well, most of it. Terence isn’t in this picture, and since this was taken, I’ve changed the sprites for Dan and John as well so... Beautiful scenery, grass, trees, a graveyard, just wonderful Features: Yanfly's battle system with the ATB Add-on. The usefulness of a high agility just skyrocketed. Ship v. Ship Battles (not yet implemented, still not sure how I plan to do this) A summon system unlike most other summon systems. Instead of summoning some giant creature to lay waste to your foes, you instead summon spirits, and use their power, giving you temporary stat increases and additional skills. At this point in time, only Kara can summon, this may or may not be changed later. hidden bosses ( so far, only one that is pretty much invincible at this stage of the game, but there will be others) Spontaneous breaking of the 4th wall Download: Without RTP https://www.dropbox.com/s/84vt4c7u8tdexjb/Lost%20Creation.exe I'm sick of the time it takes to compress the RTP, so if you don't have it, you're SOL as far as my game is concerned, unless of course I reallly, really like you. but for everyone else, good day to you sir. Steam: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=232515948&searchtext= Credits: Credit to Enterbrain for the program and RTP stuff Kara’s basic sprites and facesets were done by yours truly using Ace’s Generator. Kara’s downed sprites were done originally by Nee Millon, and then edited slightly by myself and The Second into their finished forms. Credit to Tsukihime’s scripts Grandma Deb on rpgmakervx.net for some bloody horror tiles I used Credit to SilentBackstabber on rpgmakervx.net for the black cannons, which he edited from XP’s RTP, then then slightly edited again by myself into the finished forms Credit to Neon Black's script Credit to Yanfly for his scripts (namely the battle system with the ATB addon) Issues: no known issues Additional notes: I have used events to block off areas not yet completed (such as, for instance, the Adventurer’s guild) as going into these areas in their current shoddy state could result in massive confusion and possibly game-breaking, which I would like to avoid. So… yea Also, keep in mind my mapping some areas (such as certain, pretty obvious, and pretty hideous parts of the ship’s deck that you’ll recognize right away) are really just placeholders. I have also used sample maps here and there, and again, their just place holders, well, mostly. There’s a couple that I had, and then edited a bit, so those are permanent, but most of them are place holders till I actually come up with original mapping for those areas.

I've been wanting to share this for a little while, but here's the first chapter of my finished dissertation (don't worry, uni's over now) that I'm planning on turning into a longer, more full work. Just wanted some opinions on it. It's a big ol' sci-fi existential stream of consciousness crazy read. That said it has swearing, drug references, sex references, suicidal references and just a genuinely 'ick' factor to it, so heed that in mind if you happen to be 11 (in which case what you doin' here). I'm also, when I have waaaay more free time and Onny's done, considering making this into a project, but that's a glimmer of a longshot right now. I can post more chapters if you happen to like it~ But yeah, let me know what you think, and enjoy! It's fairly lengthy at around 2600ish words, but if you fancy going into the mind of a rather depressing guy/environment, then have fun (I copy pastad from MS Word, so apologies if the formatting's a little wonky)
