RMVXA EvilOverlord (being the bad guy) Demo available.

Ah, The list is: What I did between version 0.41 and version 0.5

1. That is weird, she is supposed to be in the sea creature somewhere. I did manage to play through the game with her in the party.

2. Good call, I shall do some more work with the balancing issues there.

3. There's no simple way to display both costs other than to write it in the description text of the spells.

4.  I am not terrible inventive when it comes to making weapon items.

5. I think the idea between meatshield was forgotten. I think it was to be replaced by "tag" which causes one unit to aggro on Gustos turn. AKA he makes the enemy focus on a single target.

6. Ooh, I must have missed that one.

7. That is actually intentional. I think it was supposed to be reflected in the dialogue.

8. After defeating Rah'med, there should be an armored dwarf in the monster tent camp that can upgrade your castle.

9. It doesn't work because it's not the real thing.

10. I had an idea that there would be some more benefits to the whole destroying of towns in that you would gain loot form the pillaging.

Your feedback has been absolutely valuable.

If there are any other things you can think of, please do mention them.

1) Where is she then? Because I searched everywhere and could not find her.

3) I saw other RVXACE games doing it, I think they had some custom script for that. But even if you don't wanna use it, you could still write the MP cost in the descritption.

4) I didn't say to make new weapons. Just allow Jaavis to use the existing swords. He can only use daggers and Heir has no reason to use swords (less attack than axe and less defense than gauntlet).

5) Even in that case, I still feel that the move would be better on Heir than Gusto. It's a tanking maneuver on a character that is not built for tanking. On the other hand, the character with the best tanking stats (Heir) has no tanking maneuver. It just seemed counter-intuitive that's all.

8) Yeah I know. But they're still not there, not even in the castle.

9) And where's the real thing?

 

[Julien Brightside]

1. I checked it out.

There is an event called "Lilah joined", but it only fired when she was fed adventurers and not when you beat her stomach.

This explains why you couldn't find her room, nor find her in the seamonster.

(Probably sounds very weird out of context.)

This will be fixed in the next update.

2. You can find Snuffles in the village that is newly created in Westeroth. The one called New Orkshire.

3. Some imps and succubus you hire works towards a variable instead of being actual characters. If you don't find them, that doesn't mean they stopped existing, they're just out there doing minion stuff.

The dancer should appear if you have talked to the following:

The bartender (find him in the old ruins of your fathers castle)

The architect (armored dwarf in desert camp that appears after you defeated Rah'med)

The dancer (talk to her after you have defeated Rah'med.)

If you find something strange, do you mind taking a printscreen of it?

 

[Clangeddin]

The dancer is still not there even after talking to bartender and architect.

I know where you can recruit Snuzzles, it's just that after you recruit him he's nowhere in your castle. Why isn't he in Heir's room? (that would only make sense)

 

[Julien Brightside]

Hmm, guess I`ll have to do some intensive research then.

How far did you get in the game and how long did you play?

 

[Clangeddin]

I reached the harpy that says that the demo is over (and crashes the game too)

Ah bugger. I`ll fix it when I get home.

this link works.

 

[Clangeddin]

Heir loses Strong Cleave after a while and never gains Threatening Aura (even though its mentioned on the level up screen), This is especially troublesome as Threatening Aura is the only thing that makes random encounters bearable in the game. I didn't even bother to progress again once I saw that ability not working.

Life Steal also costs 50 MP making it completely pointless (sould drain is better in everything).

The Efreet says he wants 5000 gold to join, but he doesn't take them. (he joins for free)

After vulcano the orc carpenter still asks you to build bridge to vulcano for 1000.

 

[Julien Brightside]

I really appreciate your feedback.

I`ll see if I can make it better.

 

[Julien Brightside]

Version 0.52 (Bugfixes, the return)

1. Harpies no longer cause black screen at border fort.
   Cause was a missing fade-in event.
   
2. You can now travel back and forth through the border fort if you have beaten the guards.
   Cause was a fail-calculation in transport event.
   
3. Life steal for Heir is a bit cheaper now.
   From MP 50 TP 10 to MP 40 TP 5.
   
4. Efreet now decrease your current gold by 5k.
   
5. Orc builders should now not ask for building the bridge for volcano twice.
   
6. Added potion shop in Dysert town.
   
7. Added Monster repellent herb to all shops. It doesn't take away monster encounters entirely, but it does halve it.
   
8. If Lilah is in your party, she shouldn't have a sprite in her house.
   Not sure what happened with this event. Hopefully this will fix it.
   
9. Succubus in the dungeon of Westeroth town adds to the legion number.
   
10. Afterdemo ship: IF you feel like it you can now take the ship and explore the world.
    It is just an empty really.

[Clangeddin]

Much better but I noticed a few things things:

1) When you start game it says. "You are played version 0.51", apart from the grammar mistake, isn't this version 0.52?

2) Jeeves can't equip the teeth weapons at all.

3) Strong Cleave can be used only when enraged. Is this intended?

4) Lileah starts at level 33, seems very high. Is this intended?

5) The two adventurers are back in tavern after Lileah supposedly ate them.

6) I have the dynamite from Eris, but when I interact with the cracked wall in the sewers (to make it explode), nothing happens. Did I forget something or is progression broken?

7) There are a few rat holes in the Overlord's ruined castle that you can enter in even if Lileah is not in your party.

As for suggestions. Did you consider adding Yanfly's system options (and core if you don't have it)? That's a neat script that also allows you to enable or disable auto dash (holding shift is lame ).

 

[Julien Brightside]

1. Clangededdin feedback. (Will be implemented in next update)
   
   Fix version number of game+grammar error.
   
2. Enable teeth as an equippable item for Jeeves.
   
3. Strong cleave is intended to only be usable when using focus.
   
   Added description to skill.
   
4. Adventurers reappear in the tavern for some reason.
   
   Replaced them with monsters when you spare the city.
   
5. Fixed Lilah level up.
   
   The way the variable works is that it should att your level to hers. Unfortunately she didn't start at 1 and the level added twice. This should be fixed now.
   
6. Dynamite should work properly.
   
   You are given one dynamite.
   
   You use it on the door or on the sewer crack, not both.
   
7. Fixed the ratholes in the old castle.
   
   They are now only enterable as long as Lilah is in your party.
   

I got the Yanfly core and party system.

Enable autodash, could you link me to that script?

About the dynamite, I was wrong. I forgot that the first dynamite had to be used on the wooden tower in the forest, doh.

 

[Julien Brightside]

https://github.com/Archeia/YEARepo/blob ... Options.rb
Added faceset for Gaston.

Fade in screen should work properly after harpy event now.

Help from Xwrath to get save image script to work.

 

[Dungeonmind]

Don't know if someone has mentioned this but having the shelves right up against the wall looks bad. They should be on the first tile before the start of the wall. As it stands now it looks really wrong because the bottom of the shelf starts literally on the wall. Just giving some feedback.

A simple fix would be to move it down one tile.

 

[Julien Brightside]

Good feedback.

THe thought has occured to me.

I`ll probably change that for the next version.

 

[Clangeddin]

I did not restart the game, but after upgrading to the latest version (continuing with the old save file), the harpy event in the border fort still makes the screen go black permanently, making the game nearly unplayable (you can move around, access menu and interact with objects, but you cannot see anything, it's like playing blind). Do I have to restart the game to fix it? Cause I don't really feel like to right now lol.

Also, Jeeve's Incisors reduce his attack power rather than increase it.

Well done with the updates though, this is really shaping up nicely.
