Not too too long, but if you have prior programming experience, it helps a lot. If you want, I can continue programming since I know what to do, and you can supply with whatever we come up with plot wise / music wise / sound effect wise. I have almost an entire month of free time coming up, so I'll be able to do some major work on this project.
What I really need...
1) sound effects - any and all will work well. Especially if you can either rip it from the game or create it yourself. Menu sounds, battle sounds, magic sounds, etc are all very much needed (using defaults on much of them currently).
2) Music - I've got most of the original midi's to use so far. All remixes are welcomed. As of now, for Alex's story intro, I'm using a Time's Scar remix I found on OCR. It's a piano type piece, and it really can delve into your emotions.
3) Sprites - While thanks to COF, I have many many sprites, I still am going to need some. For instance, I need the slave (can't remember the name we have currently), Vera, the woman we save (did we ever get a name for her), and one or two others we can come up with plot-wise. I made Alex's character set and battle character set, and let me tell you, while it's not A+ work, it's still good for now.
4) We've got enough info for the beginning demo of the game. However, we still need to work on plot's and subquests and the like. Any and all ideas are welcomed as far as I'm concerned.
5) A place to upload this / send it to you all so you can check the progress, as by next week, there will be a very pretty, functional game demo to play.
I'll upload more screens as to the beginning of Crono's story later. But it pretty much starts off at Guardia Castle, with the king talking about uncertainty among the soldiers and how Porre hasn't talked to Guardia much lately. Crono goes off on a quest and Marle joins him as she overheard and insisted to go too. And off they go to Porre to check to see what's going on.
Yet to put in (let me know what you think):
- There's 3 training ground type places in Porre. North, West, and East. I figure info can be acquired there as to a mission going on in the West.
- They go and find a forest (Forbidden Forest / Cursed Woods / whatever).
- Enter the forest quest.
- Eventually they come to a cave... and in the cave they go around and eventually go to find soldiers slaughtered and a near dead Alex.
- They fight a monster and Crono carries Alex to a Porre hospital.
- After I have a question mark.
A continuation of Alex's story (which I did put in last night) is that he wawkes up in the hospital and has slight memory loss (as the receptionist will let on). Her name is Clara (for now) and there may have been something going on between those two. We'll see what people think. Anyways, then Alex is able to leave.. after that, I have another question mark.
Anyways, let me know what you all think.
