    Hello, fellow game makers! You might be wondering exactly what I'm asking for, so first I'll tell you a little bit about my project. (It will be non-commercial, free for all to play)

    So, I'm currently working on a project in MV that features lots of dungeon crawling and randomly generated things. It's meant to have a high replay value, even at max level. In the game, your party is selected at random, starting with your very first character. From then on, you'll gain other party members throughout the game. They are also selected at random. You'll essentially end up being able to recruit them all if you play long enough. And you'll have open access to all of them through a reserve system.

    Okay! Now for my request! This is something I technically could do on my own, but I really like this community and love seeing what people come up with. I'm looking to fill up more actor slots for my game. Currently, I have 50 of my own already made. And, while there are a max of 1000 slots in the database, I'm going to try and limit it to 100 total. Don't want to break the game!

    --------------------------------

    What I Need From You:
    A custom actor, of course! Use your imagination! I'm taking the first 50 submissions that meet the requirements below.

    Submission Requirements:
    Traditional MV format; all submissions should include 3 items: a face file, character file, and sideview battler file of the same dimensions as the default assets.

    Actors do not have to be of the human species nor from a specific era or archetype - can be an alien, undead, animal, etc... As long as it is reasonable to play while saving the world, per sé.

    It's important that you list the authors of any custom resources you've used, so they may receive credit as well.

    Please do not use tall sprites or 3D style faces and features. It won't flow well with the game.

    Optional Additions:

    • Character name - If you want to set a default name for your character, feel free! I am, however, giving players the opportunity to rename their party members upon recruitment.
    • Backstory - I really have no idea how I would add this to my game. But if you have something, I might try to feature it somewhere (no guarantees).
    What You'll Get:
    • Your name in the credits of my project
    • A playable character designed by you
    • Video game immortality! :D
    Thank you all in advance for your submissions! I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
  2. Is there a specific style you'd like the characters to be in? Is your game going to be commercial?
    Would love to help once I know these answers! :)

    Thanks for replying! I've edited the original post. It's not a commercial project. I don't need to make money off of it, since RPG making is purely fun for me lol.

    As far as the style, just like I stated in the post - Default MV dimensions for the files, so definitely something that fits. And no tall sprites or 3D looking assets. I respect those styles, but they wouldn't fit in to be honest. I guess just think something that loosely fits with the default stuff, but with as many custom assets as you want.
  4. You can use my OC contest entry if you like. Her name is Teddy (stage name). she's a puppeteer and has strong motherly instincts.

  5. @Princess Bananabelle Thank you! I like your character, but I'm not seeing a sideview battler here. Do you have one?
  6. @JGreene Yes, it's the top image. Is it not loading properly? It works for me.

    Of course it loads after the fact... lol. The forum sorcerer is at it again. :p
  8. I made this rather quickly.

    (It is not myself, it's the true hero)

    Edit: Credit hiddenone for the shield, sorry for forgetting that.
  12. Update!

    After some testing, I experienced a bit of lag in the party formation screen processing with a full cast of 200 members. Not game breaking, but kind of a nuisance. To be safe I'm going to cut it in half, for a maximum of 100 characters.

    But I'm still accepting submissions! I like what I see so far! And thank you all for taking the time to do this! :D
  13. Quickly generated from MV generator. This is the best that generator could do to represent my game character (I still prefer my hand drawn one though).

    Name: Soleil Alfred
    Signature Moves: Spellblade, Fire magic to be exact. How would u use it is up to you

  14. If you want, here's Mike, the guy I made for the Original Character Contest. Remade for MV.

    He's a human mimic, full name Michael Mythrical Catheans. Skills: Skill copy, deflect, reflect.

    Original Post with Backstory, if wanted.
  15. Hey, um... Im new here, can someone tell me how do I do to Upload my computer files here? :rswt
  16. You can either upload them to a site like imgur and use the attach image feature in the toolbar, or attach them to your message using the "Upload a File" button.

    Oh, thx!

    Her name is Amber and she is a demon
  18. If you're still looking to fill the ranks...

    This is Fiann... Nothing much is known about him (or so it is presumed he is male) other then he seems to have an uncanny ability to read other people. Though decent with a sword in combat he prefers to manipulate bot his enemies and the battle itself with an almost sinister joy...

    I've started a new project without any added resources so it should all be standard base MV resources
  19. Done quick.
    Was thinking of forest creature which has wings but who cannot fly.
    Well, maybe she can one day.
