Re: About this game
The problem is that in Loren, they say the castle was once populated, and then all its inhabitants killed by Death Knights

Re: About this game
That works, although I think those two would enliven the story if you were to give them more than a short cameo. I'm not saying you should make one or the both of them a fully fledged companion, although that could certainly be a lot of fun, but I think Zachary would be looking for agents to take "his" castle back, and would certainly be inclined to assist the MC with information on a secret way in or some-such.

Re: About this game
Will you reuse Karen sprite? would be nice to see a younger Karen and maybe Loren as a child.

Re: About this game
Loren would be very young, since it's 13 years before the events of Loren Amazon Princess. Assuming she is 23-25 years, in this game she would be around 10-12 As for Karen I could have her look younger, but I'll keep her design since I like her outfit.

Will the men (eventually?) show as much skin as the ladies? :D Since some equal fan service would be lovely. <3jack1974 wrote:As promised the intro blog post is up: blog/2015/06/introducing-cursed-lands/
For those interested only in romances this summary will be useful:

Re: About this game
You mean Vaeril/Jasper? Yes in the romance CG they're quite naked too. During the story not, but I could have Jasper show more, for Vaeril is a bit difficult because... druid (and he's not like Myrth the "walking bush" ).

Re: About this game
Got another update today, the Amazons (Leena) recruitment quest. Leena is Loren's trainer
As you can see there's even some specific lines that plays only if your character is human. Having a full-freedom character generation will require many checks (race, gender, etc) but will also make the game more immersive I thinkmc "What's it like, teaching the princess?"
le "Like teaching any other student, but with higher stakes."
mc "Higher stakes? How do you mean?"
le "Not every Amazon trainee passes muster. Some fail to rise to the challenge, and take their own life."
"Trainees taking their lives when they fail to pass muster?"
mc "That sounds barbaric."
le "Call us barbarians if you like. But I hope you'll note that it is not the Amazons who have set about creating an empire which spans the continent. We are quite content to sit on our peninsula in isolation. Now, to conquer, that kind of behavior takes someone with a human's sensibilities."
if prace=="human":
mc "I'm not sure if I should resent that remark."
le "If you call another culture's practices barbaric, you shouldn't take surprise when someone does the same back to you."
le "For an Amazon, choosing to die by one's own blade is a mark of honor."

Re: About this game
Sounds good to me, it can also help with re-playability....just don't go overboard, or else you'll create a bigger game than what was intended

Re: About this game
No there are only some extras sentences during dialogues, like that one
