Story Based Info and Stuff

Introductory Notes:

This is a short project for the RPG Maker VX, it might have its laughs and all, but it's not a lulz game. It's a mystery RPG. I had the idea for a while, but people in the IRC pushed me into throwing some teasers as the actual game develops, those are SBS, Legendary, looktothesky, among others... Why killing Touchfuzzy? He's my buddy, and I want to make this game for all of my buddies, so what better for a friend of mine to have the star role of being killed?

The Scenery

It all happens in the quiet and nice RMVX Mansion, which is run by Kav and Pyro, the place has some floor managers and two other General Managers. The Mansions is a public place where anyone can check in (and out) anytime they want or even get kicked out by the Mansion Staff if they provoke any issues.

When you check in this place you get your own personal room that you can decorate as you wish, but you have to be careful, you can only check in once, if you get kicked out because of bad behavior your room will get locked and you shalt never come back as yourself neither disguised (disguised would make things worse)

Each once in a while you can find people inside the Internal Room for Chilling, and even more rarely you can find them talking! (they sleep there most of the time) and it's in one of those gathering nights when the story takes place

"Takentai SVBS 2.7 Translated by Kylock+ Nightwalker's Side View Battlers Configuration"

Add ons:

"Omegazion Battle System modification for PinedaVX"

It goes like this. each time you cast a skill you spned your MP for the set amounts... but if you don't have enough MP you can still cast, although it'll cost your HP and you could eventually die from self damage in that way. That doesn't mean you'll have to stock mana/MP/whatever potions, the game won't have any of those... how to replenish your MP? During battle your MP will increase on each turn slightly, use it wisely through the battle

The Gameplay

You can enter rooms inside the mansion and explore. Some of them will have Quests you have to take on, for instance, the first one is Mr. Anonymous where you enter with him and play the quest as him. In reward you can have him join your party from time to time. Remember that before such quests you'll have given a certain task by Kav, you can accomplish such task without the quests, but Quests have important pieces of the puzzle to know who killed Touchfuzzy. This is important

At certain point of the game, probably near the end, based on what your answer is, the ending is gonna have some changes, story related, battles related, who knows... So, get on making those quests, besides it'll help you on getting some extra characters for the battles

This is great Pine, I cant wait until the demo arrives. (Well, not for Touch maybe) Also, now I know whos on IRC XD.

[Locust]

This place needs more lulz games. I gotta check this out.

[Mira Mira]

Awesome game idea, sounds like Clue to me.

[Retired-Pine]

This place needs more lulz games. I gotta check this out.

This ain't intended as a lulz game actually, it's going to be comic and all but the main focus is the actual mystery

Awesome game idea, sounds like Clue to me.

Thanks :3
I'll try to give enough hints, although the purpose ain't playing it like clue, I'll certainly take some of that stuff

[Sevith]

Excitement rising! How is the game gonna play though? Will it have battles? Be puzzle oriented? So many questions, so much time.

[Guest_zeroplumber_*]

This is relevant to my interests

[GrandmaDeb]

Zzzzzzzzzzzz....

[Retired-Pine]

Hahaha, the part with the humor I assume, I hope you don't find it offensive Granny

[scherzo]

Is this trying to follow from the already-glowing future success of "Armvex Twilight"? Basing your game on IRC personalities, eh, Pine?

And give me some good lines, too.

[Retired-Pine]

Well, not really, I had this idea for a while (a mystery who killed x user game) since Xp but now I feel like I can do it, so I guess the time is just right :3

[LimitTwilight]

Yay, another game with characters from the forum! I said this before, but these are so fun! I can't wait for the character list, myaha. It seems like there's a lot of room for characters in it, so I wonder if folks like Tayuke and Llaandr will show up...

Basing your game on IRC personalities, eh, Pine?

I hope not just IRC, because then that means I'll never show up in any of these games! I really need to get an IRC client...

It's a a giant mansion, so there'll be lots of exploring, right? Games set inside a single giant building (or complex) are really interesting if there's still exploring to do (and secret rooms! ); I'm not sure why it's so.

I wonder what kind of plot twists will occur in it... Maybe it's all a big conspiracy and Touchfuzzy was only the first to go!

[look.to.the.sky]

Mwahahahaha!

Everything looks great so far Pine! I love the idea of a murder mystery and want to see how you pull it off. Can't wait for more updates! I'm glad I was able to get a lot fo you all to post your projects heehee

[Retired-Pine]

Erghmmm... here:

It'll loop though, I forgot to end the intro at the end of it, but it's no biggie, that's as far as it gets

[Guest_zeroplumber_*]

Very nice

[Legendary]

Sheer genius, Pine. Sheer genius.

[SilentBackstabbe...]

You manage to pull the thread out! Am currently dling the demo, i'll give you the review after i play it.

UPDATE!

Hmmm.... it was a short teaser. Anyway, it's good for an intro. A small suggestion though, maybe you could fade out the BGM when the noob alarm starts or change to a less lively BGM. Good touch with the screaming SE

I just realise that i have graced this thread with my 1900th posts!

SBS

[Retired-Pine]

Okay, thanks SBS, will do so then, lower the BGM a bit

The game itself is intended to be short, so the intro will have to do for now... in the next days I'm gonna put up a scene showing the basic battle system with a Quest where you have to play as Mr. Anonymous

[Locust]

Agh, damn. RAR, my nemesis. How does one use RAR files? Seriously, RAR's the reason I can't check out most of the games I want to.
