Story Synopsis:

You, (use the in-game character customizer to design your own character's appearance, name, stats etc. ) are the main character of this story. It is a game within a game, and your hero has become a player in the game where he or she is forced to compete against other players for unknown reasons. It is overseen by an omniscient force known as the Judge, and you are given objectives you must complete, otherwise you will eliminated from the game. Once eliminated, there are no second chances.

This is not a story about saving the world. You only need to save yourself. The game will test your courage, intelligence, and your moral compass. You will be forced to make choices that will change everything, and reveal who you are deep down. You don't need to make friends, you don't need to help anyone, you don't even need to follow the rules. You just need to keep on living. But even if you do survive the game, will your humanity survive along with it?

You are playing a game like no other.

You must compete against the other players for the ultimate prize.

But there can only be one winner.

Will it be you?

And there are so many questions.

Why are we playing this game at all?

Who are your allies and who are your enemies?

Who is the Judge?

Riley is a story-focused game that will never be the same for two different people.

You make the hero (or heroine).

You make the choices (that actually matter).

You decide the fate of yourself, your friends, even your family.

Features:

-An intense, dark, fleshed-out story

-Create your own character. Change the name, appearance (hair, skin, eyes etc.), stats and more.

-Classic RPG Battle gameplay with modern improvements and twists.

-A free turn battle system with the ability to allocate turns however you please.

-Deep class system with skills, magic and unite abilites galore.

-Plenty of choices and narrative paths + endings

-20+ playable characters

-30+ hours of gameplay (The demo is around an hour and a half)

Set in a fantasy world, filled with forests, towns bustling with some colourful characters, vibrant lakes, dark caves, etc. But there is a much darker atmosphere then what might first appear.

BE WARNED: This game contains lots of violence, however there is no blood or gore. There is also strong language.

NOTE: This is still very much in development. It is still quite buggy and uses the RTP due to lack of resources (cash) and artistic abilities at the moment, but will be replaced with new graphics in the future.

It has been beta-tested by the following steam users, so huge thanks to them:

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
time for a new avatar :)
