Spoiler: World, settings and systems :

Equipment System :
Relics' Legacy has a classic JRPG equipment system. You'll find equipment upgrades in treasure chests, through quests, or you can simply buy them at shops.

Augment System :
Monster spirits can be used to augment a piece of equipment with extra statistics or resistances. Not all spirits have the same effects on all equipment, so choose your augments wisely....

Skill learning system :
Skills are learned by spending Job Points (JP), which are earned through quests or defeating monsters. Learning new skills is essential to tackle the challenges of Relic’s Legacy!

Story Book :
The Story Book will add unique, in depth knowledge about Hearss and the characters as well as gameplay tutorials for Relics' Legacy.

On Map Mechanics :
The current time and even the weather will need to be monitored.. Some events will only occur at specific times or when specific weather conditions are met. There are also places you can only explore by using the environment, so keep your eyes peeled for areas to jump and climb!

[PLUEVNR]

Bump !

Hello everyone, I steel need feedbacks on every features which can be criticized (story, lore, map, gameplay, menu, and so on) .

If you guys can try it, i would appreciate it very much.
Thanks ! and Happy RPG Making

 

[PLUEVNR]

Bump !

Hello !
I made a lot of updates and fixes lately.

Any suggestions and feedbacks are welcomed.

Thanks !

 

[Cythera]

Alrighty, I played your demo to the very end! Before I get into the feedback, is this your first project? I just like to know; it really has no impact on my impression of the game, don't worry!

Spoiler: Positives

• The mapping is really nice; it gave me some ideas for my own maps! The shading is nice, the side doors and underpass walls are nice. Good job on the mapping.
• The skill development is good; you learn one skill, and it unlocks the next 'tier' of that skill. A suggestion: you could add some text to the side box where you could put the next upgrade (if you want; this is subject to opinion. There isn't anything wrong with the current set-up)
• Action sequences. Thank you for including that. It makes battle more interesting. More on this later...
• The little things: Some small, quality-of-life bonuses that I noticed, and felt they added to the game. Icons above notable people/events, heal on level-up, and you tend to reward exploration with small treasure chests.

Spoiler: Less Than Positives...

• Grammer and spelling. I can see that English is not your first language, so some errors here are to be expected. Even native English speakers aren't perfect. Still, if you are releasing a game in English, it is always beneficial to spell-check. Google translate is a good tool, and then use any spell-check program and change the language to English. Nothing in your game was inchoerent though.
• Character voices. None of your character really had their own 'voice'. Aurora was the closest, and I found her voice quite annoying. Flesh out the characters a bit more, give them a unique voice.
• I won't comment on the story too much, seeing as this was a short demo and the story appears to really start at the end of the demo. Though I will say the scene at the top of the mountain was a little sudden.
• Horrendously high encounter rate combined with less than 100% escape rate. Please, no. Allow 100% escape rate, and reduce random encounter rates.
• In the Hinter Hollow, right after I killed 10 monsters for the quest, there was a MASSIVE lag spike. As soon as I turned the quest in, the lag vanished. I suspect you're running a parrellel event of some sorts to alter the quest window. Look into that; this lag spike was nearly the end of my playthrough because it was just so bad.
• Your Earth Golem has way too much Health. The battle went on for so long I was begining to think 'is this even winnable, or am I supposed to lose...?'

Spoiler: Suggestions

• Give a place for a free heal at the beginning. You need 10m to rest at the inn, or a rat tail at the tent. What if I don't have 10m, or a rat tail? It is possible to become locked at the very beginning this way.
• Explain the 'Spirit' system. I can tell it's Yanfly's augment system (probably most MV devs can) but a quick explaination would be beneficial. You could even remove the 'Spirit' option in the Equip scene until the player obtains a Spirit stone.
• On the Spirit system…Some spirits can only be used on armours, some on weapons. The Rat spirit is for armours, and the bat spirit for weapons. But both are listed as 'Spirit'. This is confusing. Name the weapon augments something different from the armour augments, or you risk players thinking your system is broken when they can't put a rat spirit on their weapon.
• Give your enemies custom skills. Besides the earth golem, I saw two skills: Attack and Quick Attack. Let the wolves have 'Bite' or 'Scratch' and give the hornets 'Sting'. Simply changing the name and animation makes a huge difference. Seeing Attack all the time is boring.
• Review your transfer events out of Moonbright. Only 3 of the tiles contain transfer events. Small thing, easy fix.
• Increase the JP gain on monsters. I fought 3 bats and got 4 JP. Considering the cost to learn skills, the grind required is harsh.
• Give an option to view what each reward from the village chief is after the test of courage.
• Start Julia with a heal skill. She has enough JP to buy the heal skill, but it doesn't make sense for her to NOT have one at the start. She healed the father. Just start her with a heal skill.

Overall, this was a good demo! Keep working on the project. I see some good potential.

Overall, this was a good demo! Keep working on the project. I see some good potential.

Hello !

Thanks for trying the demo, I really appreciate it.

So yes, it is my first project. I started with literally 0 knowledge about RPG Maker and programming so it took me some times to come this far.

Spoiler: about positive points

• I initially released the demo with default mapping provided by the software and I felt it was ugly so I started to learn about parallax mapping. It's really nice to see that my maps are appreciated.
• I had a lot of headaches about my learning skills system haha. So yeah, I'm pretty proud of this. I'll consider what you say about seeing what can be learnt after, it's a good idea.
• Action Sequences, yeah... I'm not very good at it right now, I need to improve. I made some basic sequences to release the demo but some day I'll do an action sequences marathon to improve them lol
• As a RPG gamer, I feel it's important to reward player for "losing time" to explore what has been created, I'm happy you noticed that.

Spoiler: about Less Than Positive points...

• You're totally right with the spelling and grammar ^^' English is not my native language. So, thanks for pointing that out. I'll review my dialogs when I'll be bored of mapping.
• Voices... I'm writing this on my notes.
• About the mountain scene, I was planning to create another scene showing the vilain side but for the moment I don't have the map and the sprite of the big boss so I'm delaying this for later. I have some ideas but I know I will rework this sooner or later.
• Somehow, I feel like sometimes, you have to fail the escape. I think I'm going to raise it a little but I'm not gonna make it 100% success. Ok for the encounter rate, it makes sense.
• Thanks to report that lag spike, I'm going to check it out. I think it might be my custom event running in circle.
• Ok for the Earth Guardian. I didn't want it to be too easy, I need to find the good balance.

Spoiler: about suggestions

• My brother told me something similar about the free heal, maybe at their home. So yeah, I'll surely add it.
• There' a NPC talking about spirits but I think it's not enough, good point
• Spirits have colours related to the equipment type. I know it's not obvious, good point again, I have to find a way to make it more obvious
• Except the wolf, every enemies have custom skills. Maybe I should increase the use-rate
• Ok about the transfer in Moonbright
• I'm not sure about increasing the JP rate. At the start of the project it was higher but you had nearly all the skills without any effort. Or if I increase the JP earned, maybe I should increase the rank 2 and rank 3 skill reguirements too? Since I'll decrease the encounter rate, increasing the JP rate a little is maybe not a bad thing... I'm going to think about it. The thing is, if you learn skills too fast, you won't learn anything for a long time. There will be a change class system later in the game (like mage can choose to become an elementalist or an arcanist). well... a lot of headaches are coming lol
• Good point about the rewards, I will add that
• Julia with heal makes sense yes ^^'

Thanks for your review, it really helps me. Your point of view is really good and I appreciate that.

By the way, did you try the side quests? you can accept them from the bord quest in INNs.

Thanks again for playing !
See you later

 

[Cythera]

@PLUEVNR
No, I kind of forgot about the side quests board! I also had a time crunch today, otherwise I probably would have wandered around and found the board again.
All my less than positive points are things that simply come with more practice - except the lag spike. I'm 95% certain it's related to a parallel event. Writing and grammar is practice, and gameplay balance is practice. You have a really good base of a game, and good skill with parallax mapping. The lag spike put aside, there weren't any game breaking bugs I could find. Everything else will come with time and practice.

 

[PLUEVNR]

Thanks a lot ! I'm glad to hear that.
I'll try to fix that lag.
Time to improve on the other stuffs !

 

[PLUEVNR]

Hello,
new update thanks to several feedbacks.
If anyone wishes to try my demo, it's free. All feedbacks are appreciated.
Happy RPG Making and have fun !

would love to try the demo

 

[Walldeaf]

This looks good.

 

[PLUEVNR]

Thanks for your messages !
Yeah I've shat it down because a huge V2 of the demo is coming soon and I was too ashamed to let people try my V1 lol. (reminds me I have to update this thread which looks ugly ^^' )
Thanks to several feedback, I was able to add great improvements. I've also asked @HawkZombie to correct all my dialogues and database because English is not my native language. He did a fantastic job and pointed out some mistakes.

So, the project is still ON, but I don't have a lot of time currently, unfortunately.
I've also have 2 ongoing map commissions (which I can't find the time to finish) and these are my priority for the moment (RPG Maker, priority, I mean) so I can close my mapping store.

Thanks for your interest anyway. There's not a lot of work left to do to release the V2 but I need to take care of some IRL stuff first, then finish the map commissions.

See you later.

 

[ShadowDragon]

version 1 could be still there, but I look forward to it, so dont rush
RL goes first, but thank you for the clarification on the project as well

 

[PLUEVNR]

My demo is finally completed!

Here's the launching calendar



You have many ways to support the development and I'd be very grateful if you could try it in a couple weeks.
Thanks to the community, this project has evolved in a serious one. I've taken the good and bad critism to raise the quality of the game.
I really need your honest feedback.

I'm counting on you and I'll see you then!

 

[Ina00]

I was not expecting to find you here at all, but hello!
I discovered this game on instagram, and i think you recognized me from the profile pic.. Anyways the game is cool, the story seems intresting, especially the "doubts" you put in the synopsis, and I also really enjoy the mapping. Giving it a try

 

[PLUEVNR]

Hey hello!
Yeah I recognize you
thanks for your kind words. I hope you'll enjoy the prolog ^^

 

[PLUEVNR]

Hello there!
I made a trailer to prepare the release of the demo.
It will be out the 16th of July! Get ready
I hope you'll like it. If you do (even if you don't), any kind of help is much appreciated.
Play it, share it, support it!
See you then.

​

 

[PLUEVNR]

This is it!

We're finally here, releasing the V2 of Relics' Legacy, prolog.

Give it a try and challenge your fate!

"Why would I play the V2 if I already tried the V1?" Would you tell me...
Well, that's rather simple! It's a whole new experience. Even if the storyline remains the same, the visual aspects, the sound, the game mechanics, the battle balance, the dialogues, ... EVERYTHING has been reworked to a high level!

Have fun!

This is it!

We're finally here, releasing the V2 of Relics' Legacy, prolog.

Give it a try and challenge your fate!

"Why would I play the V2 if I already tried the V1?" Would you tell me...
Well, that's rather simple! It's a whole new experience. Even if the storyline remains the same, the visual aspects, the sound, the game mechanics, the battle balance, the dialogues, ... EVERYTHING has been reworked to a high level!

Have fun!

Hello everyone!

10 days after the launch, let's take a little look at the game page :
- 450+ views
- 80+ downloads
- only positive reviews
- only 4 bugs found so far, none of them game breaking

I wasn't expecting this much for a demo. To everyone, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I deeply appreciate how many players tested the game and gave me feedback.

If you haven't already played it, please give it a try! It's only 2h30

So, what's coming next?
While waiting for more feedback, I've begun to develop the next chapter (here's a preview of a WIP sewer). This chapter will take place in the continent, in the Haemoid Kingdom to be more precise. You'll find new friends but also new challenges to overcome. I can't wait to finish it.



When I'll have more reviews, probably in a couple weeks, I'll start doing the translation.

Well then, see you later!
