A nice introduction to my game.

In case you're new to my little world, my name's Zuhane (well my username is) and I've been developing games for a few years. With this game in particular, I hope to set the standard of showing what RPG Maker is capable of. My head's also brimming with ideas, so I'm making this game to express some of the wacky locations, characters and gameplay ideas in my head, which will hopefully satisfy even the most worn out RPG player, sick of the monotony of tapping X for 5 minutes to make character A kill monster B. My head is a quirky, eccentric and colourful place, of which I hope to project the thoughts into this game.

The premise of the game is simple... kind of. You play the role of a young man named Kruz. He has a strange accent and a rather false charm. He's kind of likeable in an odd sense. He's just got a Master's Degree in Linguistics and Bio-Engineering, which he's been told will get him nowhere. Anyway, after job hunting, he comes accross a website advertising the dream job. It's set on a tropical island and the pay's fantastic. The employer needs someone who fits the description, which just so happens to be Kruz. Surprisingly, very few people seem to even know about this "dream" job. It consists of helping out, designing, naming and creating technology to harness new species from the island.

Once you get there, you find the owner of this business to be - at lack of a better term - a bit of a senile nutcase. However, the pay is so good, and no other jobs in the world exist focusing on Linguistic Bio-Engineering. He gets sent on his first little task, which is to grab some blueprints from a nearby science bunker on the island. The research on this island is priceless, so security systems are about everywhere. It just so happens that the senile owner of this business has not deactivated anything and is completely incompetent beyond belief. The island, in some areas, has gone to wreck and ruin. Extremist, hateful mutant bio-terrorists quickly assume control, preventing any escape from the island. They want Kruz's marvellous brain for themselves, to use for their wicked ways.

The way the game is heading can only be described as a strange mixture of:








-Jade Cocoon
-Final Fantasy X
-Warioware
-Farcry 2 (but good)
-Portal
-Ratchet and Clank

Saying that, the actual battle system is something new and fresh. I'll cover it in my next blog post. Tata for now!
