@Sylvan Rover
Yeah, I know the 'pain'. Good luck with your next projects man!

@miblan: Sadly probably not going to continue on this one anytime soon. Just too many other projects I want to work on. Maybe one day I'll revisit. But since all the engine updates, it's hard to go back to just make sure it's working. It was fun to work on though. I might use the assets for something else in the future.

Any news yet? I love watching the progress grow, and it's sad GM:S 1.4 and it's services are just gone.

@ArKan & @Mikeliosus: Ya sorry, I haven't touched it in years. An update from GM a while back broke it.

Same for me, can not play

can't play :

@╣WW☆J╠ Drudigger: Sorry. Will try and fix sometime soon

Any chance we could get the project file to fix the error?

please fix it if you ever can, I loved this game, hate to not play it again

@izzoice: Thanks for the report. Sadly it's been like that for a little while. I need to jump in and fix it at some point.

Is this supposed to happen?

@VizionoftheFuture: Thanks so much. Maybe one day :P

Wish this could be an actual game

please project fiel that I can learn please.

@AriesWarSpirit: Thanks!

Well thanks any ways. Looked pretty good!

@AriesWarSpirit: Ya I know. I haven't touched the project in a while and not sure if I'll be able to get back in to fix it anytime soon

@froot snek: haha, thank you!

Signed into Steam just to comment on this masterpiece, amazing!

@Ramkey: Thanks! you're too kind.

Cool, it could make it's way to somthing like diablo 3 in 2d

@yishalee: Agreed! Still just a prototype of an idea :P

it's worth adding more fun inside.

@retonorye: Cheers! Thanks for the suggestions.

also when you get to alpha and beta, LET ME KNOW PLEASE. I'd really appreciate it.

Very neat. Maybe a "dash and slash" kind of an attack and a healing spell, or maybe activating one of the statues heals you? The artwork is nice, very atmospheric wtih the lighting and all. Maybe drop a boss on the player if they clear the area. I can see myself playing this game if it were further along. a little flash or screen bump when you get hit, maybe increase your swords hit box and the attack animation by a few frames to make it feel just a wee bit heavier and slower. I know I'm dropping alot on you but i really would like to see where this goes. Keep it up!

@KostayFire: Cheers! I'm glad you like it, even though it's so rough ;)
@chaserfett02: Thanks! Ya, a lot of stuff needs added. Just an early prototype at the moment.

fantastic game

game not idea i dont know why i typed that i guess bacause you said it was still in dev but it feels complete anyway

i love the idea but did you use asprite for the sprites if so how did you enlarge them i want to make a game with some freinds of mine but i dont know how to enlarge them where they look like pixels aka the sample picture you show (I think it has a good style to it)

@woodtowood777 cheers!

i think it would be good if you control the guy with the wasd keys and attack with lmb and block with rmb, is is a very good game

@mdgcreeper: Cheers! Thanks for all the suggestions. Will definitely tackle those things when I crack back into development. Hopefully soon. It's been on hiatus for a little while now

also great lighting!!!

GORGEOUS ART WORK, HOLY COW-AMOLY-EUS!!! I have a few recommandations. The controls, as mentioned by many others, are a little weird, not too bad though, but a little weird. The skeleton's sword swing animation is barely noticable, and getting hit doens't feel like I'm getting hit. Health should be more noticable, and having low health should trigger some sort of screen filter or animation, just some sort of visual or audio cue to tell the player they are low on health. Could use some sound effects. Other than that, great work!

@RescueKnight: Thanks for the feedback. Ya the controls still need a bit of work. I'll try that out. Cheers!

Make right click become atk. It took me a while to figure out how to atk. I quickly learned to move on my own with left click, and right click was my native response to attack. Maybe due to playing starcraft.

@◃si▹Mr. Skeltal: Thanks! indeed!

Great concept, now add in a story!

great man plays like a moba

@Brian3DW of course!

I appreciate it. I'll be watching your stuff too man.

@Brian3DW: I had very minimal experience with C# before I dove in, had just picked it up a few months before and tried Unity first. But my knowledge of code was just too weak, so it was overwhelming. Most of it was just googling the problem I wanted to solve... or just going through step by step tutorials for specifc kind of games. There's a ton out there. I'd recommend getting rid of any large game ideas and just focus and simple ones to start off with. Follow a step by step tutorial and you'll quickly learn how to even approach solving problems, when without knowing how code worked at all it was and endless sea of unknowns.

Thanks. Ive got another question if you don't mind. I see that you are an artists (amazing one btw, congrats to you man!) yet you were able to make this. Did you follow all the built in tutorials to start or did you just have experience from working with other engines?

Do you have a recomended starting point? I've tried Unity, Unreal, and when I boot up the interface, it seems so overwhelming that it's hard to start.

Keep up the great work man,

@Brian3DW Definitely doable from scratch. The only thing I didn't build myself was the lighting engine. Give it a go!

Thanks for posting this.

I have been searching all engines trying to find what could make this isometric 3rd person action set up the best.

Yours is amazing and I am wondering. As far as what is in this build, how much is from "kits" or whatever it would be called and how much is created from scratch by you? Sprites? Movment mapping? Combat (lock-on, block, collision detection)?

Meaning, is it possible for me to find the foundation for my own game?

Thanks again,

@AgentSloth: cheers! It's not ready for beta testing, but if I jump back on it and get more worked on, I'll let you know.

if you need a beta tester add add me as a friend I would love to

i will have to try the controler support....cant wait to see the story mode!
