Well, I'm now working on writing up a plot, I've created a couple of practice maps which I'll post some time soon to try out the awesome tilesets and I've begun work on a world map.

I'm thinking of doing two world maps, one for the above world which is largely separated by ocean and another which is an underground dungeon, which links the many islands together by ancient pathways under the ocean. How's that for an idea?

Check out my Sheezy Art Page for updates too, in case I forget to post them here. There's also updates on the story I'm writing too.

Just look at the examples. That is ALL I can do I'm afraid...

The battles in RMXP are incredibly static too... They don't have the characters moving or anything. If I knew how to code C++ well enough to make proper games, I'd make it that way, but until then, the very limited RPG Maker XP (Without any Ruby code editing) is all I can do.

EDIT: Just to let you all know, it's more likely I'll stick with this project this time, being older, more mature, and bored having done nothing for the past four or five weeks, and still got another 5 or 6 weeks until school starts again.

You do realise that the sprites only use 4 frames on Saga Frontier?

4 of each I mean, one for the head to bob up and down, and the other for the body to sway with whatever they are carrying.

But if its hard, then you dont have to, just do what you have to do XD

Maybe there should be some magical people who were created by the evil boss but join up with the good people instead?

Nagis: I sincerely doubt I'd be able to do something like that... RPG Maker's battle graphics consist of only a single picture for the character.

Fennicy: Here's some examples of sprites that I'd need -
Walking sprites:


Battle sprite:


Lil Miss MRE: But I don't know what Elara wants to be! ^^

Ideas for plots still fully welcomed. Nothing related to the board itself please though... Unless the board themed words can easily be changed.

Wow! I hope it's able to happen because it sounds like a really great idea, and if no one minds I would like to be in it. =D I could be one of the followers that joins up for the good cause.

Though I'm no expert on making games so I'm not sure what you mean by sprite or how to make them. ^^jjjj If I can do anything else to help, though, then I'd love to do that. ^^

I wanna be Elara's light agent. Because I'm in her Dark Goddess Cult.

Do you remember what we decided my role would be when we were first discussing this? I'm not changing it.

It's Xeo's right hand man. The guy who appears periodically throughout the game, usually giving orders or whatnot. As well as being the first impossible-to-win boss fight.

Darkslaya can be a right hand as well! The other two admins. He can be like, the Wizard or whoever, that builds the Weapon of Mass Destruction or whatever (since he's the coder). Though of course, this is up to him.

If this fails again, I will lose all hope.

If you want sprites, look up Saga Frontier Sprites.

Playstation 1 + Its graphics = Holy shit amazing sprites.



You can do it, I have Faith in you.

(Beat RXPX Quest and Lute's BTW)

It would be heavily appreciated, but in the event that this isn't possible I can do an extensive search for character sprites... To submit your own character sprites I'll need movement sprites AND a battle image, which should be, as a general guide line, 120 pixel width by 170 pixel height, although you can give or take about 30 pixels from both width and height.

EDIT: And Nagis, you can be a main protagonist then... I'm guessing that's what you want. Can't think why...

I'm also going to be helping with the plot, although I'm not sure I'll have the time to do the writing.

Also, we'd like anyone who wants to be a character to post. Also, if they could make some sprites for their character, we'd be very appreciative.

I'm not entirely sure how well board related plots would pan out...

EDIT: Right, I've just downloaded RPG Maker XP, two fantastic tilesets for indoors and world maps (Although I can't find any global outdoor tilesets yet), I'm setting up the basic file needed to start producing maps, and (when this receives enough attention) I've got Vulkar to help me make maps.

EDIT 2: Please change the title of this thread to "The Return of the Xeogaming RPG"

I'd definitely like a character or something in here. (Being Cairoi *cough*).

Story idea:

Starting in modern times, a new member will join. He will befriend another regular, yet active member, and that will be the tutorial. Once that's done, a dark storm will boom and beckon.

Lord Xeo, the once fair and great ruler of Xeogaming, will be possesed by a dark spirit. A great war will commence, with some still under his banner, others fighting against.

Cameos and humour and awesomeness abound ensue.

Good luck. "Third time's a charm" didn't exactly work for me, but eh. My luck's screwy.

...however, this is NOT a promise.

Remember back AGES ago Cairoi was gonna make an RPG for Xeogaming? Then after... Uh... Something happened that prevented him from doing so (Can't remember his reason for stopping), I took up that challenge? Twice? Well guess what... Not exactly hard to guess that this is gonna be the third time I'm gonna take that challenge. Hopefully, the phrase "Third time's a charm" will hold true! ^^

I'm open to any ideas for pretty much any aspect of the game, and it's still going to contain people named after the many members here, so if you want to be in it, tell me.
