Phantasy Star: Beneath a New Light

[lyla2284]

Yes, the storyline is darker than the original (it's normally to be expected when dealing with a mature character), and there are several plots twists in the game. This is a very ambitious project of mine ( I started throwing ideas around as early as 2002, when I was 14) and hope my hard work will come to fruition.

Here are a couple of psuedo-3d battlebacks generated with MGC's FPLE script.






Just a quick battle test with the new background. Note that it isn't finalised.

I'm also redoing all the characters, using the original PS4's well-proportioned sprites.


This char is so awesome....


Meh. I never liked Chaz.


Love Rune as well. The character, that is.

Has anyone played the game yet? I'd really like some feedback. I've been very patient regarding replies, you know. ;) I'm working on a new release, but in order to make my game better, I really need you guys as a community to help me.

Please?

lyla, I do not want to upset you, but the server where you stored the screenshots is falled. Could you transfer screens in another place?

[lyla2284]

Really, that's strange. They seem to load ok when I log on... Sorry about the late reply and lack of updates over here. I'm more active at RRR.

But I'll upload some new screens for my demo that's coming in late June - early July. Though it's pointless if no-one plays the game after I upload it. This project will be in development for 18 months come June, and I really don't want to get the impression that I've been doing everything for nothing... I put alot of effort into this, you know.


My game supports up to 5 party members now.


New main menu. Credit goes to Mac.


Most menus feature maps as backgrounds now.

I'll remove the DL from the first post, then upload the new demo when it is ready.

[lyla2284]

Thanks, dsoul85. I'll try to have a demo out by the end of the month. I'm still beta-testing. Also updated the first post.
