I'm here to introduce my "experimental project". I work as a writer in the videogame field with indie companies, though I must say that my first love is Rpgmaker, the first gamedev tool I learnt to deal with, and in two weeks I started using a trial version of Ace and created a brand new project. The provisional title is Urban Fantasy.
Urban Fantasy is an experimental JRPG featuring an urban environment, social problems, thrill and fantasy. In order to melt these two different aspects (Urban and Magic) the game focuses on the commonly excluded social cathegories you never heard something about when played traditional JRPGs like students, salarymen, policemen, poors etc... the same for the representation of an environment which has a strong narrative potential as our cities are. Subsequently such a setting gives us room to portray an URBAN kind of magic, dealing mainly with the popular kinds of arts we usually witness everyday on walls, tv etc.. as Psychic abilities, Graffiti, Cyber abilities, Rapping etc... can be but those are just an example of what I have in mind.
The story of the game will unfold among different cities/nations/MNCs (resembling many from the world we live in) and various characters striving to seek a greater power able to change the whole balance of power, creating new threats and erasing the old ones.
For now the game is passing through an evaluation phase, SO each single like or comment will be decisive to decide its possibility of being created and launched through a kickstarter action.
I focused myself on battling and on the artistic side. I replaced the simple though effective galv's battlers with the battle symphony system trying to improve the proj with new huds.
