Thanks I'll fix that


My mind is really bugged which design I'll keep so I made a poll for me to see which is better

Fantasy Blue:


Classic White:


Simple Golden:


Take your pick guys


EDIT: Weird why I can't view the poll results... is it still private?, I thought the poll comes back after the Awards o.O

The one with the white borders around the faces is best suited in my opinion.

[quigonkeichy]

See in all honesty actually, I don't think facesets look that good with speech bubbles as a whole, but that's just more of a personal preference really. But I'd go for the second one, the first is too clashy

[Spentura]

WOW!!! the best artwork + feature that i ever saw before it was like it was an E-P-I-C game!!! awesome, is this even made by the same program?!!

oh wel... not just grapic but also story, i will be a total hit if it can become an anime

You sure got a lot of art, didn't yah?

As for the borders, I dislike the white border because of its simplicity and it gives off this futuristic vibe. There's nothing fantasy about it, so I like your blue border a lot more.

[Hanzo Kimura]

Yeah I used to have a lot of Visual Artists xD Now I got no one haha But it's not really that important now, I'll be worrying that after i'm done with the stories and scenes and I'll replace the characters that is used now with the new one so everything is just a placeholder(Kaduki Characters)

for the borders I'm thinking of changing it again into a golden one and design it a bit. I guess white borders is too plain xD

[Zadorain]

I actually like the white borders a lot, simple and clean.

[ShinGamix]

Any way two have both? Maybe two options so we can choose in game? Cause the blue border is elegant and stylish but the white borders are easily readable from the inner part near the text. Unless you can take the inner part of the white border and mix it with the blue design. I would make it more a blue fade with a small black outline much like you title logo's words. Glad to see you still have the magic touch. Looks nice.

I like Imizeal's art style.

and how many nice script systems do you have in your game now...1000? The equip system (video) is very nice and title screen, and message system..OMFG where do you get all this awesome looking stuff.
[Wads up all papers and rakes them all into trash or floor...bangs head on desk] lol They are all so good.

Well that's the point of it xD

Nahhh You can't have both, the borders of the faces is unchangeable so i have to stick to one design. The Inner part is actually the same, the border is the only thing changed.
The Scripts are shown in my credit list, if they're not made by me, And no I only have few scripts in the database


Anyway Guys how about this one?

[Avvy]

Looks good so far, I suppose.

The story is kinda hard to follow. I reread the entire story synopsis a good three times,
and all I can understand is that a plant was found, it was named Escallion after Escalione, and then
during the Vanir Era, Vance and Veinhart are born. And after blah blah blah...the continent is
under tight rule during the Cronos era, and then Vance & Veinhart are imprisoned and escape.
Wow.

My point is, the story is an amazing wall of text that, to be frank, is quite boring and bland.
I feel like I've heard and played this before. Perhaps liven it up a bit? The characters seem a little bland as well.
The "I don't fear death" type. *yawn*

The battle system also doesn't woo me too much. But perhaps that's just because
I'm kinda tired of sideview. The maps above look kinda bland and boring as well, compared
to some of your earlier maps, with were bursting with detail. I do like the white border, though,
it's nice and simple. The art is amazing, as well.

Sorry if I come off as rude or antagonizing. You're a nice guy.

[Hanzo Kimura]

I really don't mind, I'll take that as your "Constructive" Criticism but you give way too negative comments (all i red was bland and boring) and haven't come up with any positive or fix to that.

But I thank you for reading the whole thing

I like that better than the white, if anything.

[Avvy]

Crap, sorry about that, my head is KILLING me right now...

For the story, like I said, try to liven it up a bit. Maybe the Vein will have some
kind of revenge towards the specific person that killed his parents/girlfriend? Something like that I suppose.
Maybe you could add a summary of the story as well. It's kinda boring and confusing reading the whole thing.

For the interior maps above, try to add some more clutter to it. Alternatively, you could make it smaller.
Do you really think a prison would just have two wooden beds in it? Speaking of those, they're a bit blurred.
Might want to fix that. The battle system, I would say add some cool effects, but you already seem to have those.

And like I said, I'm LOVING the white border. Good luck with this, Hanzo!

lol just in-case... to make up from your last post

How could he make revenge, He doesn't know who killed them xD, Summary of a story will be up soon.
Well, DC Members know the real story, I really don't like giving the spoilers to the story so I'll leave you on what you 'know'

We have our own preferences on how the owner of the house keep theirs clean , Comeback again after a demo released
maybe that'll change things up from what you think

Good luck with this, Hanzo!

Likewise to your projects.

Thanks for the Opinion

I like the yellowish (newest one) best now. Especially around the name but the face set pic needs the same little corner tweaks and little lines too.
I'd like to see them a blue tone instead of the yellow also.

On adding more cluter to your inner maps. I am against it. The pics focus more on the characters and interaction rather than going to a "flea market or pawn shop full of stuff"

[scurries off to find script list...like the message display system]

How about the golden border but with a brown background in it instead of blue?

[Hanzo Kimura]

here's another version of the golden border with the face border shingamix suggested and the bg color cel suggested:

[~Skyelove]

Much better; good job.

[ShinGamix]

NOW It looks freakin perfect!
