A story-driven adventure, where you experience a crumbling modern society with multiple characters, which are connected. If you aren't ready to destroy the world or watch your favorite character die this game isn't for you!

Plot:

Experience the storys of Natalie, Rafael and many more as they live as scum in their society and try to change something, everybody for their own reasons. Expect deep characters and endless plottwists.

Gameplay:

- Character counter so far: 14

- There will be no battles or equipment, just you playing a story.

- Custom character busts (still to be made)

- Parallax mapping

- Full own soundtrack by ElectroGorillaBear

- Custom music and sound effects only

- Custom scripts by Modern Algebra  Yanfly, Galv

Recruitment:

Mapper - OPEN (Parallax Mapping. See the screenshots for the used style. Of course i would support you in every way possible)

Character Spriter - OPEN (Many sprites have already been created, but there will be much more characters. Mack-Styled)

Graphic Artist - CLOSED (BlackRoseMii DeviantArt: http://blackrosemii.deviantart.com/gallery/)

Audio Composer - CLOSED (A collective soundtrack is done by ElectroGorillaBear https://soundcloud.com/robertkilpatrick )

Grammar Fixer - CLOSED (Taken by nneace)

Beta-Tester (1/3) - OPEN (First position: TalalAlgreby)

Project Page Editor: - OPEN (I need someone who can put up the project page with some banners etc. nicely)

Why a full story-driven game?:

In my opinion most Rpg Maker games lack rich and interesting stories with non-cliche characters. There doesn't seem to be a single non-horror story-focused game altough the Rpg Maker is perfekt for a mix between visual novel and game.

Just a heads up - your screen shot section is broken.

UPDATE 1: First big update. Added twice as much gameplay and the player finally gets into the main story part. Also the Intro got a little bit "defused" so you don't need to go into a mental hospital anymore after playing it.

Will we be provided with the Tile sets? If so I have no issues mapping.

I would like to join as a graphic artists. I've had a few negative experiences with making busts for other projects, but I'm still confident in my skill, so I want to try it one last time. So, if you like my art/artstyle, I'd be happy to join. Should I send you some examples per messenger or is it okay to post them here?

Hey I'm pretty new here, so I don't really have anything to show, but I think I could paint some busts. So if you are interested then you can give me references or w/e for one character and I'll do a preview for you.

I'm willing to do what I can. I'd prefer to work as a subordinate but if no other mappers exist for this project I suppose I could just try hard. I'd like to get some experience that's for sure. As long as you have the story and tiles for me to work with. And someone to present the maps to to get approval or send it back to the drawling board. Thats fine by me.

I will help you with the mapping and send you examples of bigger areas and how they are to be constructed. You would get the story, tiles and i would check the maps naturally. Do you read your personal messages?

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
