Hello everyone! I'm here to talk about my main project, Mystical Legion.
This game originally started out as a game about the Twelve Olympians against Hades(it was more than just that, but it's not important right now). After a while, we ( my currently-three-person "team") decided to change the story completely, and so we did. The game now has nothing to do with the Olympians, save for some characters retaining their Olympian names.
Here's a little preview of the game's story:
"Deep inside a dungeon, lurks a powerful being known as Adonis. Due to fear of his manslaughter and his great power, Emperor Suez sealed him away after a fierce battle. A woman named Mephes, who wished to stage a coup, to start her own empire, found Adonis' power to be quite useful, and freed him, in the premise of doing her a favor..."
The main protagonist is Artemis, a young lady, and new recruit to the forest guild known as the Crystal Owls, one of the five main guilds in the region of Hollowmoor(name not quite set in stone just yet, though we are thinking of keeping it).
We plan on making the game a 2D metroidvania Action RPG, with something called a Squad System (more on that after we finalize it, sorry). The map itself, is more castlevania than metroid (one big map, instead of separate smaller maps).
The engine has been progressing rather slowly, but that'll change soon enough. The engine, is currently using the "classic" style of the sprites, while i fix up the current one( the ones I've shown in my sprite thread are getting "revamped" a bit). The game is being made in Game Maker Studio.
Here's a little preview of the classic style:
Once the engine's completed, I'll make a little video showcasing it. I'll also show updates of the style, so keep watch!
If there's any questions related to story, gameplay, or anything else, really, don't be afraid to ask, whether it's through PM's or posts below. I'll try to answer most, if not all questions depending on what they're about.
Oh, and one more thing. If anyone would like to help us with this project, with sprites, art, music , etc. that would be much appreciated! Other than myself(main programmer and spriter), there is one spriter and one artist. There might be a writer soon, but it's not a sure thing just yet. Anyways, thank you for taking your time to read through this, and I hope you all enjoy my game idea!
