I'm about to make a PS fangame... now with a screenshot
Posted: Thu Oct 18, 2007 9:36 pm
I'm working on a classic Phantasy Star fangame. I am using a program called RPG Director, Multiplayer Online version. It will be an MMO.
If you want a sample of what the game will be like, try this Final Fantasy based MMO made with the same editor. http://www.animetheme.com/animetheme.html (just click on the "Anime Theme World Online RPG" link on the left side of the page) no downloads required, it plays in the web window. Just log in as a guest and try it.
Anyways, back to my PS MMO fangame.
The game takes place on board the worldship NeoPalm immediately after the destruction of Palma. Before being destroyed by Rolf and his party, Mother Brain made copies of herself and transmitted them to the control systems of all the worldships except for Alisa III(which contained a Dark Force). These Mother Brain copies act as computer viruses and cause the systems of the worldships to go crazy. The systems have just started going crazy on the NeoPalm. You and your friends must team up, find the source of the chaos, correct it, and destroy the Mother Brain clone to ensure the survival of the Neopalm.
The game environments/maps will heavily resemble Phantasy Star III. The overworld maps will actually be modified versions of the PSIII maps. The enemies will be a mixture of Phantasy Star II and IV enemies(I would never use the terribly animated enemies of PSIII lol). And I can't decide if I will use character sprites from PSII or IV, I will probably use a bit of both.
Character Types:
Palman - Your standard non-magic Human, Good melee ability. (Orakians in PSIII)
Esper - Magical Humans, Good magic and not so good melee skills. (Layans in PSIII)
Numan - Biomonster/Human hybrid, all female, perfect balance of melee and magic, fastest stat growth.
Numans will start out overpowered compared to other types but as they level up they will begin to balance out with other types of equal level. To compensate for their overpoweredness they will start inside of a level 7 dungeon with low exp rewards instead of beginning inside of a starting town like the other types.
Android - you can't play as them, the Mother Brain clone virus on NeoPalm made them go insane.
I will be using music tracks from the classic PS games and PSO, if you have any suggestions please post them.
So, what do you guys think of my little project?
