Introduction
Hey everyone, this is my game Radiant Arc made with RPG Maker VX Ace. This is my first game and I originally planned to not use RPG Maker seriously (used a few default maps at start of game) but after a few days, I got hooked and started to create it seriously. The game was going well until the announcement of RPG Maker MV. As of now, I am recreating this game in RPG Maker MV with an even more serious attitude with a proper writer. This game was created to recreate an old school RPG such as Final Fantasy IV. I am posting my game here with the hope of feedback to help me make a better version in MV.
Gameplay
Radiant Arc is an old-school style fantasy RPG similar to old Final Fantasy games. It uses an ATB system with side-view attacks. As the game progresses, you will unlock more characters for the party. As you gain more, you can swap out members (except the main character) to create a suitable team composition fit to your needs. The game is designed to require little grinding as by progressing the story, the player should generate enough exp and rewards.
Synopsis
History tells a tale, of a grand treasure
bestowed upon the world; the Grand Crystal.
It emanated power to protect those who
possessed it - but also granted a destructive
power to the wielder. The Guild of Light
sought to keep the greater power from
falling into the wrong hands, so they
held it in safety.
However…
Savage, unworldly beings known as Demons
wreaked havoc and invaded the Guild, in order
to obtain the greater power they lustfully sought.
As a countermeasure, the crystal was split into
7 parts and was scattered throughout the world.
This however, did not stop the Demons from
purging all life from the world.
Legends speak of…
A legendary hero,
with a power gifted from the heavens above,
to smite the demons that plague the lands,
and to restore…
The Grand Crystal.

Filesize is a bit big due to use of voices and using .wav files.
