Amarok

your game look gorgeous.

thank you

Looks lovely!

Very cool! Kind of reminds me of FFT. Well done!

thanks guys! @The Stranger yup, it was the real middle ages until a cataclysmic event happened and brough magic, etc to the world, and some places got hit badly, like scotland. xD

^.^ I love the background texture done for this map. Also neat looking Tactical games, yes!

How beautiful!

glad you like it guys! the battle music was specially composed for this game, i told the composer to give me some neat metal riffs with flamenco parts haha

I hope you manage to get on your feet. It can be very tough living on your own.

thanks guys! im sure i will manage... somehow xD

Good news, I moved from my parents home also. But that was in 2001 so I am guessing that no one will celebrate with me any more.

thanks! there are still a few things i need to figure out, after that i will definitely make it happen

Out of everything, I really like the image you have visually showing the time of day it is. But it all looks great to me.

glad you like it @atoms! next thing i will show will probably be how the map changes according to the hour, since im using such a little overworld there is no harm in going all out with details like that.

COOL! This have must taken a lot of time!

thanks! also not really, all you need is a couple events on parallel, some conditional branches and the show/move picture commands. Seriously the show/move picture commands are godly!

Yeah, I just miss the good old rm2k3 stuff. Flash picture, wiggle picture ends,...

thanks! i noticed gyazo messed the resolution a bit, here is another pic with how the model i posted looks in the game https://i.imgur.com/AZ4FtHD.png

did you know Amarok is a music player? it can scroll the lyrics to songs in time with the music even

haha i knew there was a music album by that name, i thought about changing names but it was too late!

i see, im not going overboard with either violence or suggestive themes, at least not visually, though i suppose i can always make a "censored" version for here if needed

I think for this site you'd be safe with a warning, of course you could always ask a moderator what they think...
The threshold these days is different from the past. Things you could get away with 30 years ago are a no-no now and vice versa not to mention it is very region specific as well

That's more than fine for a game keeping in line with a teen oriented rating especially if that's as severe as it gets.

yeah, a tactical rpg with visual novel and roguelike elements.

I can't wait until it comes out, I'm a huge fan of Turn Based Games.

Oh the art, the graphics--I'm in love

glad you like it!

Did you also make your avatar? It looks like the character in the screenshot you posted on your previous status update. You just seem to be someone of many talents.

yep xD you could say im a jack of all trades haha she is my mascot character by this point.

@Plueschkatze np, 1. Since i have to use the same space for a lot of characters with very different sizes, sometimes they look different in scale, though in this case she really is a lot smaller than him.
2. Also yeah eveything done with show and move picture, the buttons are done with a plugin, Tsukimi Choice list

@Amarok thanks for the reply!
1. Yeah, I figured that he's probably way taller than her. Still it looks a little off for me. But When I think of people of 2,1 meters next to 1,5 meter people... it might make sense

yeah he is a big dude, and she is really small in comparison xD you are still right though, i gave up trying to make everyone on the same scale image wise, because then a lot of characters wouldnt even fit the screen

@shadefoundry what are your specs? there are ways to alleviate the horrible optimization of the game.

Windows 7, i5, GTX750ti. It's not the specs that are the problem though, game refuses to load regardless of the settings/compatibility modes I put it into.

yeah with that pc you should run it no prob, look up one of the guides that explains how to install the community patches and content mods. Because those patches solved many bugs and compatibility problems.
