This is an RPG. Rather than parody Asiekierka's Shequt 2 demo, I decided to make this game continue the story from the first one. I have about 2 levels done, and the RPG engine is almost complete (a few currently unused enemy position settings need to be finished, the item feature and special attacks blah). When this game is done you will be able to have up to 5 characters in your party (actually now you can but the attack animations aren't done and whatnot) and up to 5 enemies on the screen at once.

and no i am not ripping off Guy, this project started before guy even finished his first emF

This game star Shaquille O'Neal? If so, that's awesome, I'd download it.

[Lachesis]

No, but Shaquille O'Neal becomes a playable character about half way through the game...

EDIT:











The basketball and a lot of the music is from CJA...

INDEED

also the basketball is like 3D, it's like a totally spherical effect as the basketball turns. It's like... a texture wrapped around a trig circle... you'll see, it's neat.

Also yeah I did a lot of the music. A LOT. AND I AM PROUD because this is going to be great.

[Lachesis]

lol hi thar

This is a new map... a changed map... a map like no other... also the indicators in the bottom left corner blink.



lol diner, now with more city radio (thanks cja)



Shaqhut 2 is now a proud sponsor of sarcophagi with parachutes (note that the scan thing at the top is CBP's special move!):

I suggest changing the background color of the grey sarcophagus to black, seeing as how the ground is much, much closer to black than to dark blue.

[Pancake]

I agree with Guy. Also, you might want to change the backround of the white part of the sarcophagus to dark blue. Other than that, the graphics look pretty nice. Especially in the second screen shot.

[KKairos]

Keep up the good work, kuro.

[Lachesis]

let us poison pidgeons in the park

they don't look friendly


maria hat's special attack


aww isn't a cute little killer bunny that is about to bring doom to Defend Armor


special trig effects are again thanks to cja ^^


this is after two dread beams pointed at crappy basketball player



Hat Trick works by combining the attack power of the entire living/present party, and completely ignoring the enemy's defence. The catch is that it can only be used once in a battle, and if you try to use it again, it not only doesn't work but Maria has to sit there twiddling her thumbs until next turn.

Dread Beam has an attack power anywhere from 5 to 80. This will completely pulverize the unfortunate buttmunch who is attacked by it, usually. If not it leaves them almost dead for Roto Armor to murder. On a rare occaision, it will do 5 or less damage. Phear this.

Defend Armor has the ability to defend instead of attack, just like your party. It also has a relatively high defence to start with, so *if* you hit him, it won't hurt him much, unless you use Hat Trick, although Hat Trick is a waste seeing as the poor shmuck only has 5 hp.

Roto Armor likes to rotate all of his stats other than HP around so have fun.

Hey Kuro,

Stuff looks cool. Keep it up. Are there going to be a lot of glitch-area levels, or is that just what you're on now?

[Lachesis]

There are three glitch levels, although only PKUNZIP.EXE and TEMPLOL.n use that background. The other one looks rather normal, but has strange behaviors (after a battle the layout changes, etc).

[Lachesis]

well i never


because meteor and merton were already taken


cja without your trig comet would be more like vomit


when a scroll is used, it disappears. time to use another one!


:O


ohh drea(d)

[Goshi]

[CJA]

I AM PROUD TO BE A PART OF THIS TRIG

[KKairos]

Hey, the screens look cool and the reddish palette seems to work pretty well.

[Koji]

Is that red a palette or is it generated?

Seriously though nice work Kuro, I think FFV won't mind you using the Comet Spell >_>

[Lachesis]

koji: Red palette, but it probably could be generated. For the most part, I raised the red value of each color except for black by 21 where possible, and lowered blue and green by 32 for each color (in some of the higher ones it was more), so this could very easilly be generated, but the palette was easier.

goshi: Heh, FFV. The name Comet doesn't really fit anyway, so I was thinking of changing it to Merton or Blaze (I'd think Merton would fit the animation more, but the results of the attack less).

nice work

thanks ^,^

[Val]

It would better if it were generated, because then you could fade into it instead of just suddenly turning red.

[Koji]

exactly, It should be generated, it'd look better and be more memory efficient than just having premade sister palettes to every normal palette, that it woul just SWITCH to abruptly

[Lachesis]

if you see this happen then you might just be be a redneck in kansas


cja i must thank you again for- wait wtf that isnt your trig >


the question to the answer to life, the universe, and everything? i think not but its damn close


ps: wtb meters

pps: emblem games if you are reading this, i would like synthaflora to look like this but without the necklace in her right hand. and also without her hair being blown backwards kthx.

heh (ah ha ha did you just see what i did there guy) thanks.

Well, the basis for this game was kind of final fantasy, so characters got dumped on the right

The red screen with the distortion is Scorch 2's attack graphics, yes.

[Lachesis]
