The Magi Chronicles [Back to ACE!]

Facebook Page RMN Page Official Website The Magi Chronicles Original Soundtrack The Magi Chronicles follows the story of an 18 year old boy, Daryl, in his quest with an unlikely party of heroes to solve the mystery of a great evil that threatens the continent of Raethol, and the world itself. This evil revolves around a single a man who is referred to as a "Dark Lord." Though the party does not know his true name they will travel the world attempting to break his hold over it. Prologue: During the time of war many ways of the past were lost and the six Spirits of the Realm were forgotten. These Spirits were the creators of this world and protectors the its Aura. Now that the Spirits are no longer being worshiped by the majority of the population, they have grown weak, thus weakening the world's Aura and leaving it vulnerable. Major updates incoming [05\11\2016]: Spoiler We will be finishing the game in VX ACE, sorry for the confusion! The game will be FREE! Setting: Spoiler The Magi Era After the wars of the Sensou Era there was a great peace. Many ways of the past were forgotten. Magic was now the means of everything, solving the worlds greed and poverty. Though some prejudice may still exist, this peace has been long lasting. It is the year 1522. Raethol is divided into three nations; Brathea, Theocia, and Protia. These three nations were born from three very diverse races. Bratheans, stuborn in their ways, are known for their strength and hardiness and are typically frontline warriors. Though Daryl is of Brathean decent he does not fit this typical mold.His parents moved to Friasia, a small city located in Theocia, two years prior to his birth. Daryl's mother had passed away shortly after giving birth to him. Much like the Theocians he lives among Daryl took to magic at a very young age and developed skills faster than most of his peers. He is one of few Bratheans in the world to possess such abilities and has grown up with the grief of his father wishing he was more like him. Character: Spoiler Daryl - 18 year old mage that attends the school of magic in Friasia, a small town in the nation of Theocia. Born and raised among Theocians, this Brathean boy has taken more quickly to magic than his peers. A rare gift that many Bratheans lack. Corran - The Captain of the 9th regiment of the Brathean army has come to Friasia to recruit Daryl on a secret mission across Raethol. Knowing Daryl's father from long ago, Corran feels that he can trust Daryl with the task while not arousing too much suspicion. Little is known about the mission and what Corran's goal is. Naomi - A cast away from her nation of Protia (Cat-Like Nation of Monks) has traveled to Vincia (a rural town in Theocia) to study as a nun. Her boisterous and rude demeanor provides the party with some frustration while her abilities as a cleric are well needed.

A realistic expectation would probably be about 10hrs. For the completionist... Maybe 15. We are about a 3rd through the story and our current demo for a new player can take up to 2-3hrs. It won't be too long but most would say it's pretty long for a first project. If it were any longer than that I feel we'd be taking on a little more than we can chew. I'm hoping to have a final version in about a year unless I magically find some extra time. Thanks for the great question!

I love the game it is pretty neat and cool but

the only thing's I less like is the fact to not have boss music ...I love when we can have some cool boss song when you fight them

I notice the fact of the ''turn'' method not work correctly because the yanfly scrolling between actor destroy the magics of the battle system xD!

like It is not suppose to be the turn of darryl and bamm if I touch q or e ...I scroll to him ;w;!

you should fix this little thing's

but continue the game is pretty cool!

I've had some down time at work so I have been working on the project a little more than normal so here are some quick updates:

Spoiler
Characters with be added to the party at the same EXP as Daryl. This will help balance characters so they stay the same level as you progress the game. Special thanks to Palladinthug for the suggestion!

All dungeons after completing them will ask you if you want to return to the entrance.

Temple of Ondine = Complete [finally!]

We started making that a million years ago (or a few months) and I've been needing to finish the story up. And I did!

I'm almost done with the nifty side dungeon that I think everyone would like... especially fans of puzzles!

I've made a faceset for Vain (Captain of the Airship)

I'm also working on the castle for Amiresh

In the following weeks we will most likely finish up Amiresh and have a demo for you to play to that point. And most likely will have some more facesets done as well.

Let's make some researches first, shall we?
If I google image search "Arimesh", one of the first images I get is this:

Spoiler
And for "Amiresh" this:

Spoiler
This is so hard, I don't personally like or use Imesh tbh...nor do I know about that egyptian mummy-boss from Guild Wars.

But I think I'll quote what danko said, so Arimesh (because the second one fits for a pharaon more). :D

Arimesh is a style of women's clothing, and fabric. So if it is a country ruled only by women, Arimesh. http://goo.gl/kJEGRN

@Dalph That is a mob in Guild Wars 2. They are the Amiresh.

You could have it that the people inside the country call themselves one, but foreigners call them the other out of confusion.

Will my previous save function with the new build in the current temple, or have some of the switches been over ridden?

EDIT: Oh no- Just Asking. I don't require them to work, I was just wondering =D I am happy to play through again, no need to accommodate outdated saves if something needs refining.

Old saves seem to be working. Not sure when I'll have a new demo out though, but it will for sure have the side dungeon in it as well. I'll make sure old saves work with it as well. :)

So exciting, this is more engrossing than the FIFA World's Cup, it's 4 vs 4 atm (I'm serious not sarcastic)

And I'm still for Arimesh.

Edit:
6-4, I still have faith in humanity, let's go with Arimesh guys.

So, just a short update but if you haven't seen my status lately I've been in a bit of a music creative streak with the help of an awesome Father's Day gift.

Anyway, the newest 5 songs on our sound cloud are from today and yesterday.

https://soundcloud.com/jacob-mann

Go check 'em out if you'd like!

Also, I've been considering selling some music on the side. What do you all think? Would any of you buy the music I make?

I know it's not the best out there so prices would be reasonable!

Magi festival was good, but it gets a bit repetitive at the end of the loop. Boss battle three is extreme, and fits well for a huge battle with the rising tonality. Battle in the Desert has some nice elements to it, and the strings really give it a regional feel. Vicini forest is one of the best constructed pieces of the bunch, here you have wood winds and a slow peaceful pace that loops well. The Port town is gives a nice feel for atmosphere, and will really add to a market place/dock setting.

EDIT: I am tone deaf, so please ask one of the existing musicians(Scythuz\Quigon may be the best bet). I will always favor something that sparks imagination and creativity over something that has genuine structure and soul.

In a decisive victory Arimesh beat Amiresh in the votes 7 to 3. The Capital of Brathea (The Human race) is now Arimesh! Thanks to all who voted. If Jacob and I have any other decisions to makes like this there may be more polls on the way. Keep an eye out, keep playing and letting us know your feedback! Thanks!
