Coming Soon... I Guess...

Actually I have got a curious announcement to make here... I am going to implement a small variant of the default battle system to mimic battles a la Dragon Quest I classic! Laughing

So it might look slightly similar to what you can see below.

But do not expect me to make an exact copy of it! Confused

To be honest with you, I have already started changing the windows and the battle spriteset. Laughing

Let us say I do hate Aluxes just a little bit! Laughing

A Very Simple Attempt to Replicate DQ's Battle Interface

[Image: shot2019-07-15223148.png]

This is what I have achieved so far. Sarcasm

I know, I know, it does not look exactly like the original battle system, but it does look decent I think. Confused

For now only the cursor and the take screenshot function work but it is just a matter of time to implement the rest of the system in my game. Keep in mind this will only be used in Naoxe Desert and nowhere else. Yeah, that is exactly the place where Aluxes love to go for a walk. Laughing

The Saddening Evolution of the Naoxe Desert

As some of you might recall, the first map of my game is the terrible Naoxe Desert. You have never heard about it, only Aluxes seems to know that place very well... I guess that after thousands of times getting lost there, he finally developed some kind of crude orientation instict. Laughing

Even so I still love my squarish desert zone even if it's gone now... Indifferent

RE: A Short Odyssey - Mel - 07-17-2019

This is some good progress especially on that battle system.^^

RE: A Short Odyssey - DerVVulfman - 07-18-2019

Hold up. Aluxes... actually becomes an expert... at something? ARE YOU INSANE? Laughing

And nice job. I know it was frustrating finding a decent font as you wanted to keep the style.

I didn't do anything! It's a Trap!
Shocked

Something horrible has happened in A Short Odyssey's world... I have been caught by surprise and now I'm trapped in my very own game! Happy with a sweat

I will be extremely lucky if it is not some kind of Tron like story... Confused

Wait a second or two! Shocked

I am heading straight to the Naoxe Desert!! Feeling sick

Why on Earth would I ever pick Aluxes's favorite place at all? Sarcasm + Confused

Oh unholy crap! Ticked off

I knew this could end up being even worse than Tron! I have already been spotted by Aluxes! Confused

Somebody show me some mercy and stop me before I contract his stupidity! Shocked

RE: A Short Odyssey - kyonides - 07-31-2019

HiddenChest Made Things Look Quite Interesting!

It now includes a new version of KScenario called HiddenChest Version! Shocked

Now you might be able to click on a hero to select him or her! Grinning

Click once to read his personal data. Click once again to pick him! Shocked

Sadly,

it might not be wise to do the same with the destinations... but the final choice is just one click away! Laughing

I really tried to take a snapshot of it but for some reason my external screenshot application didn't include the pointer even if I asked it to do so. Sad

RE: A Short Odyssey - kyonides - 08-05-2019

A Bumping Newcomer and Click Click!

Well, I was trying to come up with anything original but then I managed to improve Gosu the Ruby gem by adding a couple of methods to change its default behavior just a little bit. Of course, I had to try it on a new project and the KScenario Gosu demo ended up turning into...

A Short Odyssey Gosu Edition! Shocked

Yeah, that Didier guy is quite obsessed with such stuff indeed. Laughing

But guess what? You can also click on any other hero available there! Shocked

Now I have to think about what kind of changes I could make to this edition of my game to keep people interested in playing both of them. Confused

Got any suggestions, my fellow game devs and readers? Happy with a sweat

RE: A Short Odyssey - kyonides - 08-05-2019

No Dragon No Battle!
Laughing

For the meanwhile I've been dealing with more Dragon Quest-ish battle system stuff like the opening sequence where you can see a small frame opens up wide like the windows now do in HiddenChest. Well, now the monster's central battleback and its frame are animated to emulate that! Shocked

I also added another minor detail like displaying a message that says "Monster appeared !". Only a few people got this scripting update via pm! Laughing

And nope, I didn't manage to post this small game update before midnight. Laughing + Tongue sticking out

RE: A Short Odyssey - kyonides - 09-03-2019

Translations and Nothing Else Except for More Translations!

I've been working on rewriting some stuff in my game A Short Odyssey Gosu Version and now it does allow me to parse the heroes' files to include four languages in the preferred places, descriptions and replies sections. Shocked

OK...

One of them is an actual conlang but who cares! Laughing

The Screenshots

Why did I rewrite stuff in the first place? Happy with a sweat

Well, that's because I'm customizing the Gosu gem in order to force it to do my bidding! Laughing + Tongue sticking out

Are you asking about the English version? Then go back a couple of posts to find it! Laughing + Tongue sticking out
