[Revived] Before the Reign

[aBallofWin]

Oh, I didn't try that because I thought both were used. Going to try .


Edit: works fine ! Quite impressive by the way, although sometimes it's hard to move (obstacles and such).

Cheers! With the collision I did rush a little bit, mainly down to how tedious it was painting in places where the hero shouldn't be able to move XD

Just a little update on the main post for those who are interested!

Have you updated the source code to the new naming convention?
I want to test it, but it needs many changes to compile

I think kurayama is talking of the new SFML 2.0 naming convention. But Before the Reign uses SFML 1.6.

Cheers for clarifying that Plus I'm working on the quest system at the moment, so when that's near to complete I'll upload a demo.

First of all: Very nice game, i am coding one myself too, also with 2D graphics and stuff! =)

I've only one problem in your game, after i left town and went on, i came through a little cave and ended up in a forest with thornes, i can go "through" some of the trees but then suddenly one tree has collision and i cannot go further, i can see a troll beneath me but cannot reach cause of that thorntree

but so long: good job ! =)

Cheers for the feedback With this next version, I plan to spend more time with the maps, as I had to quickly knock together collisions and overlays due to lack of time. If you want to ask any questions about it just ask

[Jany]

i may have a question Did you draw the Sprites by yourself, or did you find them on the internet for free?
I am not a good pixelartist yet so my sprites look kinda weird and im looking for some nice looking ones^^


i found out that on the forest_collision.png was a tree that blocked the way, it may have gotten there by accident, after i deleted it i could get through and kill the goblin

Hey For all of the sprites and maps, i found them online or used a generator:

http://www.lorestrome.com/pixel_archive/main.htm

They're the two main sources

Thank you very much, the Character creator is very nice. Even with my bad Japanese ^^

[aBallofWin]

Haha, no problem

News: An update concerning the beginnings of the new quest system have been put on. This includes a demo of a example quest and a little look at the maps being shown in parts. In this version there are no collisions and no overlays!

It's entirely for testing purposes only! Feedback is only wanted for the Quest system Thank you!

[Jany]

The Quest system looks nice. Are you planning to build something like a Questjournal? Like you have a quest where you need to kill 5 goblins, but you forgot how many you killed so far and you want to look it up? or you forget what quests you actually have to do?

Are you gonna upload the source for the Quest System Alpha as well?

Hey Yeah along with the current preview I'll be adding a journal which shows the current quest and maybe completed quests. As for the source code, I might upload just the Quest part of the code, unless you wanted just this part of it?
