The Lore of Lorewyn
Self-absorbed self-promotion? Yes!
So I've secretly been creating an old school style RPG for the past near-year now and it's finally done and bug free.
If you're hankering for an old school experience and also want to hear some of my band's music in the process, have a look!
Here!
After the credits, I had to look desperately for a place to save it. I'll play more when I get home.
Oh my god. Is that character's name Bacon?! I have to play this!
Sadly, it is Baeon; if only he were a bit faster!
Xanth novels, seriously?!
The "Ouch!" bit was awesome!
The music is very nice to listen to while playing!
Haha, hint taken!Originally Posted by Araciel
BTW: You can skip the opening credits by pressing the Action button during them.
I cannot tell if that is an appreciative or incredulous "seriously" . . .
Truth be told, the original version of the book-length manuscript this game is based on was a total Xanth ripoff (puns and references up the wazoo). But that's because my friend and I wrote it the summer after my freshman year in high school and I was entrenched in Xanth books then.
Thanks! I hope you're having fun!The "Ouch!" bit was awesome!

I just assumed ESC would skip it, so when it didn't I left the game to run while I made lunch.
I wish there were an option to use a gamepad or map your own control scheme, but I assume (not knowing anything about it) that to add that would be an ordeal in coding.
Actually, if you press F1 and click on the second and third tabs you can map the controls to which ever key you'd like, and then you can use a gamepad profiler like xpadder to map to those keys. I wish it had an actual gamepad interface though. Sorry.
Ahhh cool
I'm really liking the dialogue so far and the music really sets the mood well. Plus, I'm a sucker for a humorous atmosphere. Other than some minor glitches, this is a very entertaining game.
(SPOILER)I just crossed the Wall so I'm assuming I still have quite a ways to go.
Downloading it now! SO exciting!
Eeek. What were the minor glitches?I'm really liking the dialogue so far and the music really sets the mood well. Plus, I'm a sucker for a humorous atmosphere. Other than some minor glitches, this is a very entertaining game.

And you're right in thinking you have really only just begun.
Sometimes at the end of a battle, the contents in the bottom right window will shift to the right. It's very noticeable if you happen to have a status effect listed in the window at the end of battle. Doesn't happen all the time though. Really weird. I also saw that Tyrin lost a butt ton of ATK when he reached level 18 and dropped 1 DEF at level 19.
I may be wrong about this as I didn't give it much testing but if you equip two weapons and no shield I think the game puts the total ATK together and inflicts that much damage twice. Essentially, I think you cause about 3 or 4 times as much damage with two weapons. Sort of broken but that doesn't mean that I don't take advantage of it!
Grammatical errors but really, it's pretty close to impossible not to miss those in testing.
Sorry! I've been away from EoFF for a month or something. Real live is too busy! Argh!
That IS really weird. I've never seen that happen. I'll take a look.
That is also not supposed to happen. WTF. Hm, I'll try to figure that out. The stats should only go up, never down.I also saw that Tyrin lost a butt ton of ATK when he reached level 18 and dropped 1 DEF at level 19.
Hm, forgot that I downloaded this back when you made the thread but never got around to playing it. I'll try and remember to install and play it this week at some point.
This.
I haven't had time to finish the game yet, either. Battles are starting to get pretty hard. But I got... a dragon?
