Erics Epic Adventure (working title)

Eric’s Epic Adventure (working title)


 

Concept: Why am i making this game? Well the idea came when i realised RPG makers main protagonist is no longer the outdated Ralph. Instead it is Eric. Which gave me a brilliant idea for a simple but

pretty big project. At first i was going to make a game where Eric and Ralph battle it out. But then i saw bigger potential. That's not to say Ralph won't appear... Oh he will.
From the current design direction the game it is definitely comedic in the areas where you come across like an annoying little ****. Pestering guards and bugging people for friendships and epic adventures.
 

As a Designer:
As a designer I like to bring the most out of my projects whether it be a standard nothing special game or an epic game feature filled to the point of bursting. I'm very passionate as a designer. I have 3 other projects which I love to bits. Those are my big projects on another game making engine entirely. If i don't like the game then it doesn't get made. If i don't feel it reaches my personal standards then I simply re-write from scratch. If it has no potential I bin it. When I make a game has to be the best of my abilities and standards. This project is taking me back to my roots of Game Design and is a non-commercial project for fun.
 

Abstract: Comedy, Adventure.
Genre: RPG
Game Progression: Early Stages. I will be working on it around work and other projects. A small playable demo may very well be ready by September at this current rate.
Recruitment: Not currently recruiting. However if anyone wishes to help with the project in anyway please PM me.  
 
 
Required:
Story / Setting / Purpose:
The game takes place in the world of RPG Maker VX Ace years and years after the stories told by Ralph from RPG Maker VX.

You play as Eric. Who has been living with his Mother and Father in a secluded area of woodland in the new world of VX Ace (re-named after the heroic feats of Ralph who saved the Kingdom from a terrible monster).

Eric has grown bored. After realising that he has no friends and no future where he currently is, he decides to go on a mission. His mission? To find friendships across the new world and to seek the adventure his heart cries out for.


Character Bios:

Eric – Eric is a happy-go-lucky 17 year old boy who grows up in a forest with his Mother and Father. He can be rather annoying and has a habit of pestering everyone he sees, both because of boredom and curiosity. His curiosities however, may work in his favour or may not. Eric can be rather idiotic and doesn’t often take no for an answer which can land him into a world of trouble. Eric grew up attacking trees with sticks which makes him pretty good with a sword. However he has no real experience.

There isn’t really any other main characters as the other members of your party will depend on how you play the game and what quests you decide to do and by telling you who the other potential members are it could spoil and ruin the game.
 
Credits:

Scripts so far:
Galv's Layer Graphics
Zeus Lights & Shadows
Scripts so far:
RTP stuff. If I have time I will do some of my own.
Tilesets so far:
I’m actually using RTP and an edited Mack Tileset from a project I worked on years ago. But the Mack set is vaguely noticeable and only used for extra indoor tiles.  

Sprites so far:
RTP & Generator sprites.

Everything else is RTP unless I decide to make some of my own. However the aim of this game is to strictly use everything that is RPG maker VX Ace standard or modified.

 
Screenshots:

I would explain the towns and locations but I haven't done enough on them to really write anything useful other than Town - Where people live and some King resides.
However Azura is sort of a central base! You may find yourself coming back here a few times. But you could play through the game and only visit once... Because you have to. Maybe.

 

Azura Town Outskirts:

 

Can't just drop by without meeting the King himself right? I mean you want to be a hero of course?


 

Azura guards? Lovely bunch... Just don't like being pestered.
 

Lets not forget Muglev!
If you get him what he asks he will help you out on your adventure.

 

It's a pretty big world out there! So big i couldn't get a decent picture.

 

Features:
This game doesn’t have any specific special features as of yet. The uniqueness is down to how I make it and put it together. The game features the use of a unique special skill known as Annoyance (an attack which can potentially force enemies to run away).
