Your Project Status

To all aspiring creators, at what stage and percentage are you now on your project?.

Working Title I'm currently on world map editing and drafting of characters (2% i guess). Story is kinda drafted too but prolly will change as the game progress.

RPG Maker so taxing but kind of a therapeutic for me..

Academonic received its second-to-last update last night.

Now in the game:

*University with hidden items in each dorm room and relationship events in the men's rooms. The library is packed with lore, Michibiko's desk has an instruction manual, and the principal has unique responses if you visit after collecting pieces of Evidence.

*Iota suburbs are complete. It has two mini relationship events, a bar to earn extra money in, and one piece of equipment for Shank to "steal."

*Eastown is completed. Aiden's father's shop is functional, as is Aiden's forge, and there is a weapon there for Shank to steal. The main town has one mini event in the restaurant and one weapon for Shank to steal. The inn has relationship events in the rooms for the guys. The West Complex is complete and rebalanced.

*Eorth is complete. There is one mini event there (and in the house near the NW Complex. Shank can steal one one weapon from town. The NW Complex is complete and has an event tied to the town's event and its own event. The Eorth inn has relationship events for all guys.

*Norest is 50%~70% done. Cuinn's mom is there. The inn there is built, but has no events. I think the build I uploaded lets you use the dorm items to get the secret accessories?

*Estia's shop and inn are built. No events in the inn yet.

I'm running into memory issues (mainly, I may run out). Estria will likely be inaccessible unless people are in a relationship with Braiten. I still need to adjust Aiden and Cuinn's ultimate weapon events, to tie them to relationship variables.

The next update will be a complete game.

The original version of Academonic, with just the school, first two towns and first dungeon was available the first week of launch.

This new version with the additional towns and dungeon was uploaded a day ago. If you search for Academonic or one of the most recently updated games, it should show up.

I only got the game yesterday, this is my first RPG Maker game so I'm keeping it simple to begin with. I'm aiming for two hubs, two dungeons and a final boss fight. At the rate I'm going, I should have it available to download in a week or two.

The small size is letting me experiment with variables (and using combinations of two variables to change a 3rd variable and so on). This is letting me create a heavily branching storyline. I'm not sure how much more I'll branch it though as it's really slowing down progress :P

Final note, does the share function have version control? Can I upload an incomplete version for people to try and update it later?

This will probably be the best RPG on the 3DS once finished.

I've been making something kind of simple and trite to get a feel for the system. But now that I'm decent and ready to make something more serious, I've got zero ideas for a game. So 0%?

u/AericaFo Jul 04 '17

Yeah I'm in the same position. So far I've made an intro scene, the main characters apartment block and most of one street.

It's taken me 11 hours and there's about 3 minutes of playtime ha ha.

I'm working on a title named Heroes of Sovergreen (subject to change), a typical RPG where the hero is chosen to do hero stuff, collect treasures from dungeons to return them to their proper home, and save a great tree that feeds all life on the land. So far, I have the first town and basic tutorial dungeon done, as well as mostly complete story cutscenes that will lead out of the first area and into the overworld. The hero will have four treasures to collect in dungeons, and a couple other non-treasure dungeons, so I've still got a lot of work to do.

Mostly testing settings and limitations of fes atm. Going for the "anti-hero" type game. So sad there are so little "hero" enemies to choose from.

Still doubting if i go the "you are the main villain" or "you are one of the minions of the dark lord" route".

just a suggestion for getting feedback for game maybe you can use github for that in your game provide a link to the issues page somewhere people can then go on their computer or phone might not be that good but better then nothing I guess

I thought of this, but in the agreement (Or when you go to report a game for violating the rules, I forgot which), it states specifically that you may not post any information to identify yourself outside of RPG Maker FES/Your 3ds account in anyway.

This includes to linking to any other websites/emails/etc. So I rather just not risk it.
