RPG Maker Forums

Hi,

My company name is Neve Games Inc. (www.nevegi.com). There is nothing on the website yet!

I have a concept for a RPG fantasy / sci-fi game which I am going to build using RPG Maker VX Ace. As part of the business, I would like to present to you a short questionnaire which you can fill out either completely or only those questions you wish to answer. I will not be using the information for selling data; it is purely to evaluate the marketability of my game and what things I need to modify.

Now, the game concept is this:

The world is not set on Earth. It is a fantasy world set on a planet with no particulars as to its location with reference to Earth. The characters are humans in the style as dictated by RPG Maker VX Ace. The events occur on a series of maps which are spread out over a certain region of the planet. The story is centered around a young woman in a certain time frame (year) who is, in short, going psychotic for various reasons. She turns to sorcery (Seior refers to sorcery in old Norse) for vindication against those she fears. The gamer plays her on various tasks during her travels. Eventually she finds a home in some dark woods.

Now, the time frame leaps forward some 400 years, and the story is focused around some other characters, the main one being a former soldier. Their interactions lead them to a climax with the sorceress. During the game, various interesting characters are encountered, most of whom you would want to lay in order to learn their stories. I would provide these stories as other games for purchase.

The story deals with mental health issues and the resulting social issues. It also uses some loose references to physics and nature, and the interplay between physical reality and metaphysical ideas.

Hopefully you've read all of this! If it sounds interesting, please let me know. Finally, below is the questionnaire. Hopefully it obeys the rules for this forum. If not, please moderators let me know how to modify it. It is important for my game development though, which is why I am posting it. Here goes (I've attached the .txt file in case you want to fill it out that way).
