Memoirs of Magic: Full Game is Now Avaliable!

[TheStrawberryOctopus]

Great work as always, can't wait for the next teaser! also i have a question, is auto crossbow fires LARGE amounts of arrows are intentional? and the scope thing going to be able to use in next update?

Actually, the Auto Arrow does not have any zoom function, despite having a spy glass on top. Its just a design choice!

The Auto Arrow now, instead of poisoning enemies and the poison getting stronger per level, now shoots 1, 3 and 5 arrows in a spread formation per level; so the 5 Way spread is on purpose!

i think i can understand how it fires so many arrows, it's shoot 'em up plus beat 'em up action mod after all!

I was thinking the arenas would be themed as place, where would you be right now on world map (like forest n' stuff), also, when the game would be fully completed, i could try to make a footage of it, send it to ya, you would edit it and put it on internet (this game needs official website ).

Oh, watched video, so f***ing neat.

Noticed the glove in almost all of First-Person HUD sprites still white ones, just not matching the color on player characters' glove in their sprites/art designs except the undead mage, well that's not serious problem, just inconsistency when looks closely and compares, sorry I just can't resist and unsee that.

I have mentioned before the game will have an open world with numerous areas and dungeons. Also, I will be fine with compiling my own videos, but thanks for the offer!

I think I mentioned as well, that I currently have a tumblr where I post all of this stuff; the stuff I post however is no different to what I post here!

That's an aesthetic choice. The reason why the Mages signature weapon has purple gloves is due to the fact that exclusive weapon to the mage uses his hands as a weapon, hence why its colored to suit as much. it should be noted, I don't have any plans on changing the gloves; I think they are pretty iconic!

Fair enough. But I'm fine with that, can't wait your next update!

I can't help but feel the mage having different gloves from everyone else, not to mention different gloves from the rest of the weapons he'd use period, is a really weird inconsistency. I dunno, if you do want to stick to that I'd actually suggest making the purple gloves more ornate, so that it doesn't seem so arbitrary for that one weapon to have them.

Hello Again; its been awhile since I posted something; Roughly a month, in fact, so I thought I will share some sprites in the mean time!

The first 3 Npcs we have here are from the Kingdom of Magic; the main hub area of the game. Specifically, they are from the Palace of Magic, which serves as the HQ of sorts for the heroes of this game. From left to right, we have King Essay, the Main ruler of the World of Magic; whilst he is not the only king in this world, he is one who tends to help guide the other kingdoms in politics.

The Lady next to him is his Daughter, Princess Essay, who is the next heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Magic.

The King and Princess are heavily inspired by the royal families that appear throughout the shining series, which features countless King and Princesses, usually together. Some times they throw in a queen in there, too, but in the case of SHining Force 2, its King and his Princess Daughter!

On the farthest right we have Lore Master Thesis; a Oracle who generally gives insight and helpful tips on what is going on in the world of Magic. Not only this, but she herself serves as the Story Teller of this Story, in vein of the Shining Series Multiple Story Tellers!

Lore Master Thesis is inspired by a combination of Yubaba/Zeniba from spirited awat, and Twinrova Sisters from the Legend of Zelda Series. The Item in her hand is he Crystal Ball, which she uses to give her insight into the situation and channel her clairvoyant abilities, as well as tell stories from.

Its worth noting that The Memoirs of Magic, the book depicting the story in this game, is in fact written by her, as her title implies, a good chunk of her job is document the events of the World of Magic. While being Lore Master is not her only job, as she is also an oracle and advisory, her clairvoyant skills and able to get the information with extreme level of accuracy means she has been tasked with the job of Documenting the story of the Land!

It should be noted, all of their names are synonyms for Memoirs; due to the play being the central hub area, I think its appropiate the main NPC’s there are named after such things!

Also, expect me to post NPC sprites every day or 2 over the course of the next 1-2 weeks!

See you all Soon!

King Essay, Princess Essay, Lore Master Thesis; all of their names are synonyms for Memoirs

Tell me there is a Count Account. (Who might or might not be a vampire.)

Also, the King and the Princess have the same name? Why not King Record?

Hello Again for Another NPC showcase!

Previous post, I showed off the king of the Main Hub Area; here, we have the Kings of the Mountain, Forest, Seaside and Skyland areas. All the kings here are color coded by the element they represent!

The first King we have is King McKrieg, The Mountain King of the Snowy Mountain Area. While he may look like a dwarf, he is not; but shares many characteristics with a dwarf king. His name himself is an inside joke between me and Psy, which is a reference to a Character called McKrieg in the game Cardinal Syn. He’s the WORST.

The Second king we have is the King Bee Honeydew, who is the king of the bee people of the Misty Forest. He’s a sheepish King, who is currently looking for aid in the help of finding his beloved Queen Bee, who has gone missing. His Sceptre is inspired by a Bee Hive!

The Third king we have is King Lair, the Lizard King of the Dock City area located in the Rainy Beachside area. As mentioned previously, Phazar Bluetail being blue is a rare occurrence with lizardmen; King Lair is more akin to your average lizardman with green skin, the major difference however being his longer neck, thus making him slightly taller. His Sceptre is basically a green lizard eye!

The Last king here is King Baradus, the Father of Prince Baradus, the Hawkman Knight and the King of the Windy Vallery Mountain area; He resides in a sky town area where the other hawkmen of the land hang about. And yes, that is a live parrot on his sceptre!

They are only 2 more kings to show off, I will Be showing them off in the course of the next few days; see you soon!

i hope they can have good-to-bad or royal-to-rude tendencies to each one of them! i mean not so evil or hostile, i love them all and that would be real bummer!
