Uploaded some new "Defenders Of Light: The Three Worlds" videos.

Scripting video, and game play. Hope this new "format" will be more engaging than previous attempts. One day, I may also get a capture device and (semi-) professional editing software. For now, I work with what I have. New camera, however.

Design note:

The main reason I got into RPG Maker was to make games, and I was very happy that the tool wasn't limited to RPG making.

RPG Maker 2 is complicated and time consuming, yet it is extremely versatile.

I've never been the best RPG Maker, nor do I strive to be. Hopefully I can make a game that is fun for me to play, and maybe others will get something out of it also.

True, I really want this game to be something special. However, most of what I do comes through a lot of trial and error. My brain hurts when I consider having to rework key aspects of the game. Mainly because they took so much frustration and pain to get working in the first place. Sometimes I'm even surprised that things are going as well as they are.

Legitimately, I'm concerned about running out of memory before completing this game. Would an action battle system with the Vehicle Loop save memory?

Everything works pretty well, and I want to move forward. That being said, if a big change is to happen, it'll be much easier to fix things now.

Keep in mind, the system would have to work in nearly every conceivable situation. Character's Abilities are also vehicles sometimes, allow you to ride them around the map.

Part of me wants to make the game 100%, then figure out the finer details. Some of the bells and whistles may have to be removed if the game is to conform to RM2s memory limitation.

Overall, I appreciate help and suggestions. It has become a mission of mine to complete this game.

The previous videos were filmed on another camera. Because that camera's picture quality was poor, I exchanged it for this one.

These videos were made to test the camera and editing software. My apologies, I did not take the time to properly set the colour/white balance. This should be resolved in future videos.

Hope this new format will work out better, as it evolves.

Enjoy!

Seems like all the settings are just right on my new camera. Looks better, right?



Some behind the scenes / editor stuff to watch...


Yes, capture device would be better, but working with what I've got now. :)
