Bogus Journey

[HuntingSwan]

Is your life a little too normal?  Does the everyday, run-of-the-mill RPG leave you cold?

Well then, it's time to get Bogus!

WARNING - This game has mature content and language.

STORY

The game has two main characters - Reepal 'Rip' Parbhoo, and Aris Bakhtanians.  They are two avid players of the fighting game Tekken, and regularly enter tournaments across the USA.  They also stream the game on Twitch and have gathered quite a few followers.

However, they shun JRPGS, a decision that may come back to haunt them as a mysterious force pulls them into a mystical world full of danger.

But perhaps the biggest hurdle they face, is their own in-fighting and petty bickering.  It may just be the end of them....

CHARACTERS

Rip 



A youthful looking man of unknown age, he likes to mask his competitiveness under a wacky persona.  Serial nudist.

Has tested numerous games in his time, even contributing to strategy guides.  Talks a lot, and fast.  Part time IT technician.

Catchphrases - Boom!, Damn Girl, R I P.

Aris



A metal-loving, Dark Souls obsessed man of immense beardage.  An outwardly gruff and aggressive manner hides a soft hearted compassion for others.  Finds Rip incredibly irritating at the best of times.  Recently lost a lot of weight.  ALWAYS wears black.

Catchphrases - Big Dinner, Straight to Hell, Not in the Back.

JimmyJTran



A walking encyclopedia of fighting game knowledge.  He has competed on a global scale and is highly regarded because of his skill and talent. Together with his friend Bronson they look down on lesser skilled players.

Umm am I doing something wrong?  Why does everyone else have replies on their post?  I was really looking forward to hearing from you guys....

 

[LuckyLeafGames]

What were you on when you came up with this?  All joking aside, looks funny.  And don't feel bad, when I announced my game last year I only got one reply.  You have to work your way up and prove your self worth first. 

 

[HuntingSwan]

Yay! A reply!  Thanks Luckyleaf!  How challenging are you finding the game?

 

[HuntingSwan]

Hey so I have updated the download link with the AWESOME new battle sprites!  

I would love to hear what you guys think so please reply!

 

[TheGameCritic]

I will try out your game and give you feedback once I'm done.

 

[HuntingSwan]

Hey critic thanks!  It's my first game so go easy on me...

 

[TheGameCritic]

I attempted to download the game a few times, but it keeps crashing before it completes. It might just be my old computer, but I haven't had this issue before.

 

[HuntingSwan]

That's weird.  It is this link you're using right?

When you say crash, what do you mean?

It's currently downloading and I'll let you know when it's done and if it works.

Err, what's in this game that the download size is 500+ Mb?  That's huge for an RM game, and maybe that's why you're not getting feedback - people see that file size, calculate how long it's going to take to download, and decide to give it a miss.

1)  Have you converted your audio files from MP3 to ogg?

2) have you removed all graphics (especially animations) that you are not actually using?

I've done a 20-25 hr game with a file size of under 200MB, with a lot of audio tracks, so it is perfectly possible to come in well under your current file size.

 

[HuntingSwan]

Yeah I don't know whats up with the size.  Like I don't know why it's so huge.

 I'll probably check if there's stuff I can clear out.  

Thanks for commenting though!
