Game Development Team (Thread 2)

Hey,um I just watched X-Play do a review of a game called Shining Tear....and it is remarkably similar to ours....o.O I am hoping this is just a coincidence...If you want to know exactly how it is similar, let me give a brief summary. The hero is found on a beach, and has lost him memory. He is taken in by a young lady, and the hero has a Ring (jewel in our game) and that is the source of his power. THIS GAME EVEN HAS OUR WOLF SCENE. Him and the girl are in a forest, when they are jumped by wolves....okay so its not exactly like ours, but its pretty damn close. If I find a direct link from either the X-Play website or the official game website, i'll edit it in. This means we have one of two options; 1.) We scrap our current story and start over, or 2.) We make our game better than Shining Tear. I prefer no. 2, but the decision is Lenny's or Wed-G's...whoever is now the lead head master guy dude person. Just thought I would bring this to everyone's attention.

As for the color-coding, I don't know about yellow being comments. In the RM2K3, the comments are green, and I think we should stick to that.

The bastards stole my wolf scene??! And my intro??!! I'll fucking kill 'em!!!!!!!!


I for one ain't for scrapping this story. If they want something similar to ours then by god, they are gonna be beaten to a pulp!!

We make it better, and we make it as we are doing. Stick to the current story...

Fuckers...

im striat with green comments, yellow is kinda bright against this background... ehm our story is overly cliched i love playing rpgs and there are 7 other rpgs with the same story line just different names and different events. Its always goes the guy who cant remeber anything is swept up on a beach .... we could change it to the main character is on a ship and after the ship gets wrecked he is found floating in the ocean days later during a naval battle

haha lenny's gone mad...... by the way did they have the wolf scene? ....cause that means we need a private area to place our ideas
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
lenny did you ever finish my long post lol I might copy and paste the updated stuff into the third thread but im so lazy

Ok, well. We are keeping the story. From what I have heard the game sucks! We shall continue our story on the wolves and everything. Lenny my advise is to get a registered copyright of the script. That way no one else can get our story.

I'm not mad...I'm a fucking psycho!!!

So we are up against a game that sucks?? Muhahahaha *cough cough* ARGH!!!! If I cough one more fucking time...ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've skimmed through the post a few times. I haven't taken it all in yet...I'm not in the mood...I'm too sour at the mo...and "grrr!" if that's an emotion of sorts...

Where can I register the srcipt?? Even better, where can I register the story??

My aim with the things I write is to get them published...so if I can copyright it...if any game comes out and is anything near my thing...there is gonna be trouble...

----------

Somone download this and please say there isn't a virus on this one...

Read it...I like it...it helps with anger...slightly...though you can't write humour when angry...you gotta be bouncy bouncy hyper happy...

haha lenny's gone mad......

i ment you were crazy

i ment you were crazy

Yo lenny this character I made yesterday has green on let me upload it real quick, I read your story 5 secs ago and it scared me that I created a character with green on

Alright, the UK patent office says the following:

Claiming and enforcing copyright

Copyright is automatic in the UK and most of the rest of the world. It is essentially a private right so decisions about use of a copyright work and how to enforce copyright are generally for a copyright owner to take for him or herself.

Do I have to mark my work to claim copyright?

Although a few countries require that a work be marked with the international © mark followed by the name of the copyright owner and year of publication, this is not essential in most countries, including the UK. However, marking in this way may assist in infringement proceedings.


How can I prove originality in my work?

Ultimately this is a matter for the courts to decide. However, it may help copyright owners to deposit a copy of their work with a bank or solicitor or send a copy of their work to themselves by special delivery (which gives a clear date stamp on the envelope), leaving the envelope unopened on its return; this could establish that the work existed at this time. (Further details of special delivery should be available at Post Offices).

I have no clue what the blueman is talking bout....

But, anyway. What I programmed for the game is....

Pause Menu
It includes
"Change Rank Menu"
"Diary"
"Cheat"
"Options"
"Exit"

All I have left to program is the Change Rank selector stuff, like ranks and stuff. I wanted to know if what we have for the ranks is the final. I liked it and didn't want to change it. I hope you all will feel the same about it.

Abilities can be changed later. I just think the ranks are correct as they are.

Copyright registration differs in the US and the UK, so I had to put all those notes there before while I was finding the UK version of the law. I posted the US version originally before checking out Lenny's site and guessing he was from the UK. Naturally posting the US instructions would be useless to him. At least it's okay now..

He he he...clever BC...

I know you meant I was crazy Aurv...

Cheat?? What cheats we got??

----------

Who likes the impy thing??

I'm a guessing it doesn't havre a virus on it......

Wed, do either of the other two docs say they contain viruseseses??

Guess whos back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess who can't do anything til he gets Screenshots? ME

welcome back I guess....

Guess who can't do anything til he gets Screenshots? ME welcome back I guess....

I made some chara sets for all the suggest stuff and imma get to the magic soon ehm I just need chipsets panoramas and backdrops .... so i can make screen shots.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ill get started on battle chars I was just wondering if we could have the monsters display motion the same way the characters do, monsters just standing their is pretty lame....

It should be possible...if we were using RMXP we could definitely script it in...I'll have a look on RM2K3 and see if I can find any option etc...Blue, do we know if it is possible??

I've still got to describe Kirma and Sylian's attacks so the abilities doc won't be completely finished for a couple more days.

And welcome back from wherever you went...I didn't see you go...

----------

As for screenshots...erm...make them up???

I think you'll be sat there for along time waiting, unless we can get some animations from Draco...but he needs the chipsets don't he...so...yep, carry on sitting.

Btw, how's the site going? Is there a set template that you've made for it?? Or is it still ideas that you are gonna put together once you've got all you need??

gonna put together once you've got all you need??[/QUOTE]
I have my computer back lol i was using the schools ...
anyhow ehm
So the current people I have knowledge of are
Shadow
Ktyo
Kima (is this male or female)
Leo
Sylian (is this male or female)
Nicholai
Azrael
and
Raphael
we still need more girl names...they all sound like guys

if you want a made up screenshot just take that battle from earlier i made, just take one of those pics or link it or somethin its on page 6 i think dont remeber...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok two things that ive found we can do to show monster movement is turn them invisible then use a condition branch with battle animation / or a custom battle system which would prob use condition branches and battle animations in the first place

GOnna put it all together once he's got it all as in once he has everything that he's gonna put on the site. As for names:

- To be honest, I don't remember anything about Shadow or Kyto...
- Kirma is male. Our Red Mage.
- Leo or Leonardo (can be shortened in speech etc. he can say "but you can call me Leo" maybe??)
- Sylian is a female. See Mr. Bob's posts on page...5...which would be 10 for you...or maybe 11. She is our thief.
- Nicholai. Again...who??
- Azrael is of course our Swordsman.
- Raphael. We all know of...

You forgot Cecily...our other female.

6 party members: 4 males. 2 female...

As for the battle thing, if you or anyone else can make it work, then we got ourselves some animated monsters...

Nicholai is on page 6 for me i did a quick sketch of him the last pick is of raphael who use to be jason and... I need to do a quick sketch of the second girl and that will be it for quick sketches... o yea kirma, kyto was the same person i think.. for shadow i dont know who suggested that name but it sounds really cool and i havent seen it in any rpgs much so its pretty original
