Hey all, long time RPG Maker tinkerer (started with RPG Maker 2000) but only since VX Ace have I become more passionate about it. I am currently in the middle of making my first full length, heavily story driven RPG based on a fantasy realm I created long ago called Nathakra.
The story revolves around Ronan, the common "Underdog who must become more to save the world" type story, but it includes another one of my passions which is Greek Mythology. Think of it as Fantasy-Greek Mythology fusion. I started the game in VX Ace but put it on the back burner when I decided I didn't quite have the utilities I wanted to bring Nathakra to life. Nathakra itself has been in development for over 6 or 7 years now with a novel in development, board game, trading card game (which is 97% complete) and this video game which is the culmination of my efforts.
I have included the synopsis below as well as a link to the official opening intro video I completed for the game not 1 week ago. Would love any feedback (positive or negative) on the intro to my game which can be seen here. It may not be for everyone but it is indeed my passion and after 7+ years, has become of part of who I am.
A playable demo is almost completed and ready for testers (first 15-20 mins of story). It is (thus far) 100% 1 man project and has been a dream of mine for longer than I can remember. It will be available on PC and Android...eventually...
Story:
At the end of the second age, the most powerful and ancient of races on Nathakra, the Archons, second only to the Gods themselves, drove evil and all its darkness back into the depths from where it had once been contained.
The Archons sacrificed themselves and their power to create a magical relic that could seal the doorway to the Underworld.
Once created, Archonis, the oldest and last Archon, used it to seal the doorway with the aid of a Guardian. A protector of the realm chosen by the Gods.
This cataclysmic event, called The Binding, left a horrible mark on the face of Nathakra shattered the magical relic. This mark became known as The Infernal Scar.
As the land became fertile once again and some semblance of peace and freedom returned to Nathakra, the minions of evil that survived fled to the outer rims of the world.
The races of order and light had finally regained control of their world and from the ashes rose great cities, traditions and stories. The Archons and great Gods themselves were all but forgotten.
Gorgons, Minotaurs, and other evil beasts now wander the dark, shadow filled places of Nathakra. The Gods may be gone but the Fates are ever present, tugging at the destinies of all.
As the stories of old faded from memory and the races of light began to forget, evil began to push back and unbeknownst to all, the Infernal Scar cracked open.
As the ground shook and the sky darkened, a small few realize...evil is coming.
