Lore
[SIZE=14.666666666666666px]For thousands of years, magic has been used and manipulated by many people to better their lives and live comfortably. Magic is conjured through means of drawing Glyphs, and each element is represented by a unique glyph. Glyphcraft has been used reshape lands, grow crops, build bridges, and fight wars. However, Glyphs are complicated and intricate, and take many years to commit just one to memory. If a Glyph is drawn incorrectly, it could be catastrophic. Because of this, those who practice Glyphcraft take great care to keep their Glyphs hidden away, as most feel that it is their responsibility to keep such powerful magic out of the hands of those who are less responsible.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=14.666666666666666px]Sometimes, just knowing how to draw magic isn’t enough to pay the bills and young Glyphcrafters will often join mercenary guilds, and less commonly, local military. The guilds and military’s main purpose is the protection of civilians. Mercenary guilds are sent to farther locations to deal with monsters or marauders, and mercenaries tend to have more freedom than those who join the military. However, the Military focuses on the city’s defence, and is considered a safer and more reliable form of income. Both professions are excellent occupations for young adventurers. The largest city, Freeheart, is the hub of the world, with some of the most prestigious mercenary guilds and the strongest military. [/SIZE]

Screenshots
Ha! Made you look!
I apologize, but there are no screenshots yet. We're still in the process of finding an environment artist.
Excuses
There is still quite a lot of work before I am able to produce a playable demo. A very large portion of the game is complete already, but as I mentioned before, our team is currently lacking an environment artist, so basically there's nothing for the characters to walk on yet. Also, I apologize for posting this before I have all of the character's art fully finished, but I have been wanting to receive feedback based off of what I currently have to show, and this feels like a very good way for me to get that.
Thank you all in advance for any feedback I am given!

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
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.
