That's right! We finally did enough to release the long awaited game. We haven't been able to do as much as we hoped, because half of our EVOS team left for the army! Well, only one person left, but that's half! But try out our game, there might be a few bugs, but i think we covered the important ones. Any questions you have feel free to ask.

One of the spithers drops 2000 credits when killed. I don't think that's intentional... is it?

edit: the level up system is pretty spiffy.

Ill downloaded it as soon as I can set up my computer because I had to move.

So far its pretty awesome.
The only thing I didn't was those random battles in the beginning.
That little side-scroller misson thing was cool, too.

I have to download this. He's been working on it for years with his friend. (Plus, I got a glimpse of its stuff when we talked about it at a Wendy's one night).

Does the demo end at the fight with Ra Koda? He overpowers Ti Vega, and when I ran from the fight (which that and a host of other minor design errors take away from a polished feel) nothing happens, so I assume that is where it ends. Have to give the clueless player a heads up! Fought him twice before attempting to run away.

It might be a problem with using ozarks instead of quaternion, which I had to do due to a newfound bug (maybe) where game.exe crashes when a shop activates. Same thing happened to me when I made it to the first shop in Boundless Ocean.

Ti Vega and his voice are my favorite character so far. "Affirmative" "Blasts" "I will not fail" -- he looks the most outdated compared to the others (the use of a mace), but he makes up for it in sheer determination. It seems like the theme you were aiming for was one where the quote unquote inferior fighter overcomes those supposedly better than him due to his force of will. 'I WILL NOT FAIL!!'

The graphics were okay (meaning better than most every ohr work); I do not like too much dithering because it gives everything a grainy texture. I was very impressed by that side-perspective part in the caves, and the spider boss fight with the excellent use of shadow and lightsource, and the snake fight, which is among the best looking ohr fights I have ever fought. Ti Vega looked great too, of course!

Yeah, towards our expected finish date we had so much to do, so a lot of it we really never got to play test it..but after you fight Ra Koda a little bit more happens...

I think we can all agree that Fyre is an expert when it comes to putting off dead lines. I'd follow his advice, if I were you guys. (sarc.)

Like the graphics and the level up system. I haven't played very far yet (my monitor refuses to get any lighter, and I can't see anything in the cave). One thing though, War Chant actually lowers your attack instead of raising it. I think it's number 15 in the specials list if that helps. Anyway, once I fix my monitor I'll be sure to play through the rest of it.

In the village with all the guards, you can run from those battles and win without a fight, just to let you know. It might be like that in other battles, too, but I didn't check.
