MV - Lantern of Worlds - The First Quest

Fasoldgames · 2018-03-30T18:49:12+0900

Hi there! I've been away for a while, but I have resumed work on my second game with RPG Maker MV. "Lantern of Worlds - The First Quest" "Lantern of Worlds - The First Quest" is an adventure game inspired by West-European fairytales and mythology, and based on older games like Quest for Glory and Eye of the Beholder. The game tells the story of how a great tournament is announced, in the royal city of Idunia. The winner of the tournament will be named the new Royal Adventurer, hero and protector of the people. Many villages and towns have send their best and bravest to compete, as it is a great honor for any village to have one of its own as the new Royal Adventurer. And you are one of them, strongest and most powerful of all the young men and women of your village. But before you are allowed to compete, you must prove yourself worthy, and to do so, you and several others have been given the quest to investigate the forest of Myrr, a dangerous and mysterious place. More then 40 fixed & random story encounters. Full background art and mayor art pieces by Ponylab. Fully voiced dialogues, by talented voice-actors like Tiffany Witcher Music by various talented artists. As the Lantern of Worlds game series is based largely on text and reading, it is my hope the game series will also aid in the reading and text comprehension of younger players. In an age where reading is on the decline, I would like Lantern of Worlds to be a bridge between the reading of books and the playing of computer games, and combine the best of both worlds. Like Albert Einstein said: 'If you want to be your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.' And that is what our games essentially are, interactive fairy tales! A demo is now available, and can be found on GameJolt.

And so it was, that on this blessed day, this day of days, from the radiant heavens there did descent a messenger from the gods!
A youth of Herculean body, golden hair and winged sandals, carried down upon a gentle breeze of Elysian winds!

And thus, then, did he speak:
"A new demo is ready, for that great and mighty game, Lantern of Worlds"

"Seek it out, oh ye mortal, seek it within the hallowed domains of Itch.io, and GameJolt!
For he who finds this game, this Grail of Grails, shall know the blessings of the gods for everafter!"

In other words, a new demo is ready for my game Lantern of Worlds :)
It has improved maps, new music and voice-acting and an improved combat system.

Can´t wait to see the new demo. Your story is interesting and the art stunning. Especially the enemies look great.

Wow, great artwork in this game. The enemy sets look very cool, too. The story premise is not your usual which is a nice change.

All the best with this project.
