Elder71 14 Posted September 14, 2013 (edited) Hi, posting these for any thoughts or opinions passers-by might have. The game is called Erias Line and there'll be a demo in a few weeks. All the backgrounds, sprites, battlebacks, battlers and incidentals are by me (in Photoshop). The PCs and enemies are animated alike (tres time consuming) - I'm putting the OST together now too. Comments, questions, interest, criticism welcome. Tah all, (perspective here is a bit screwy, I'm working on the fix) Battle's End (the base image for a train that will feature heavily in the demo) Edited September 14, 2013 by Elder71 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darkanine 117 Posted September 14, 2013 Very well made,but the lack of context adds some questions (I assume AP is skills?),also the main character kinda looks like Prussia from Hetalia XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AP is skills yeah. Orphan is a knife-fighter, Skyler is a tank and Dillon is for AOE, she uses grenades of various kinds that have to be crafted from manuals and textbooks with components.

flarify 128 Posted September 14, 2013 I really like your UI style - it's incredibly clean and a refreshing change from the typical RPG Maker style. The game itself has a very unique style and is doubly impressive as you've made everything yourself. The perspective in battles is handled really nicely and the battlers, at least from the screenshots, look like they're very fluid. I'll be looking forward to the demo for this game!

I'm either proud or dubious of the fact that at 24 this is the project I've worked hardest at in my whole life. So a coming demo has the most reliable personal guarantee I've ever given. Just writing the script now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsarmina 2,612 Posted September 14, 2013 Heehee. I like the idea of this. Especially the drawings, they fit with the game but don't look so brightly RPG...very nice. Just one question: why is everything so dark? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just one question: why is everything so dark? They're old screenshots, I've since addressed the darkness problem. It's weird, because I spent so long designing it all piece by piece that my eyes must have become used to it, so I didn't think it was dark at all. Then I showed some friends and their first reaction was exactly the same. "Damnit it's too dark, can't SEE anything!" Everything will be much brighter and more colourful (screenshot 4, for example, will be covered in graffiti) in the demo itself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsarmina 2,612 Posted September 14, 2013 Graffiti? Okay, I wasn't expecting that, but I guess you could call it a form of eye candy~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elder71 14 Posted September 15, 2013 They're the screenshots I've got so far - but there's a lot to come Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
