vxace The Legend of Jak

[Goatrider 0]

 

The Legend of Jak is a tale about pirates. Take control of Jak, a young man who's dreams of becoming a pirate are about to come true as he is thrown head first into an epic adventure. Explore the land, crawling through dark caves and dense jungles. Or take to the sea and explore distant lands, plundering treasure as you go. 

Drawing inspiration from games like The Legend of Zelda and Secret of Mana. The Legend of Jak is a fast paced action RPG with difficult combat and challenging puzzles. There's also plenty of new weapons and items to help you along your quest and are also used to complete puzzles. 

 

Story:

The Empire have been cracking down on piracy for many years now, bringing their own brand of swift justice to all who associate with pirates. Now, they look to wipe out piracy all together with their new fleet. Pirates, however, are rather cunning and resourceful, and there are still places in the world that would rather the company of pirates then biding by the barbaric and naive laws of the Empire.

 

Jak, an ordinary boy who has long dreamed of becoming a pirate, finally gets his wish when he joins the crew of Captain Barret, who is well respected among pirates. After many long days and nights of scrubbing decks, Jak finally gets a taste of action as the crew go off in search of treasure.

However, with the Empire right on their tail, and a new, even greater threat lurking in the darkest depths of the ocean, this is bound to be one adventure Jak will never forget!

You should put in more of the story of the game,as it is now its just a basic description and a few screenshots,although the mapping looks quite nice  .

I've been meaning to put up some story, it's still a WIP though so I'll be updating it as I go. I put up a brief story for now, I'll go into more detail after I've finished making my intro.

And thank you .

I don't think it looks like a very story-heavy game, as it's mostly based on exploration and figuring out the story of the world you're living in by examining it. I mean, Legend of Zelda doesn't have very deep storylines, mostly because they're action-RPGs and they don't focus on that. And this is very Zelda-inspired I can see.

 

This game looks gorgeous gorgeous, and I'm especially liking the ambitious scope of the project, and its action-based gameplay. If you need any help, I'm literally here waiting.

Thanks for your kind words   I am working very hard on this game so it's nice to hear.

What sort of stuff do you do Benny? I'm currently looking for someone to help with sprite work for the main character as well as some face art as I think Jak looks abit plain and boring right now. Also, I wouldn't mind getting some custom art for the game, I can do abit of photoshop trickery but I'm no artist so any help in any of those areas would be great!
