Older development thread (The Aegis Saga - Blood)

You have weird idea of cuteness mara :cold_sweat:

(That is actually quite cool) I’ll see what I can do

Why is it that when the question is about coding fascinating variables - zilch, but when my life is being threatened by a horrific flying vampire fox thing, you guys and girls are all over describing and trying to get me to immortalise it. sigh

We are helping you. If you don’t include Flox (Flying Hummingbird fox) it would curse you to become A Were fly foxie!!

Holy jeez I’m awesome :wink:

I finally have a job ! See mom I told you gaming would pay off ! (In one minstrely way or another) :smile:

Also I feel the need to apologise for being away from le forum , causing the lack of feedback , the IRL nation attacked :disappointed_relieved:

As for feedback , assuming noone mentioned this before :

  1. When name picking , the name you’re gonna get should be alongside the “reason” you got it , for example : “the boy was named in the starsign of the wolf , Rand”
  2. Also when name picking , alongside the “default” options , you should be able to put in your own name , to engage to the characther that’s supposed to be you.
  3. Polish the choice aspect : put more of then , and make then more meaningful !

That’s it for now , further luck with the game ! :grin:

ehem, yes. ‘pay off’ :sob:

Thanks for coming back. . . we was lonely.

So on 1) I like this comment, for that you get a gold star *
(it’s kind of tiny, so don’t go wearing it into any gun-fights)

  1. Done!

  2. Have started on @trinnie’s advice - but that was mainly some stuff on the prologue. I see your point in pushing further and looking for those deeper choices.

I think that cos there are some large ones later I may have neglected the a) feeling choices, but the hard one is going to be b) the script changing ones.

One biggie coming up is ‘glyf’ in chapter 5 - man I wish I hadn’t coded 12 different magic specialities. . phew. .

My MC: “Why am I a stupid dormouse?” XD

@nightcap, have you considered adding more animals, or is 4 the limit?

Okay, I just did a bit of research because I had to know what that is.

It’s a Bee Fly, I think specifically it’s Bombylius major, aka The Large Bee-Fly. They drink nectar from flowers and trick burrowing wasps, and bees to look after their eggs. So you might have burrowing wasps/bees around where you live. Hope that helps.

Hi @Silhuetta how u been

GAME SAID MARA IS A STUPID PANDA!!! I AM NOT A BEAR NOO. POOR MARA :sob: :dizzy_face: :bear:

Hey, you do get a consolation prize - you managed to find a panda/bear emoji.

Not everybody can say that now, can they?

@poison_mara, I think, the game might be rigged. I was trying the Scylla path and got Panda too. Hahaha. I promise I did not do that on purpose. Will try to fix this evening.

You know that’s not something I’d thought of :expressionless:

I might add more later, but I’ve got a lot of proofing to do so I can try to get a beta out in a week and a half. Maybs when I’m happy its closer and I’m able to focus on some more lovely fluff.

So yes. I will add several variations of mouse

@poison_mara My MC: "Well isn’t that just convenient! Would you be interested in a dormouse? No?..But I heard that they’re really aggressive during mating season! And look, they’re pocket-sized, for your convenience!

@nightcap, Sorry, it seems I’ve gotten ahead of myself. Real question time now: Are Mara’s animals spiritual representations, or will me actually get to interact with them in the physical world?

@Zilla that is actually real useful information that I can use in my real life. Thanks!

Please stick around. Sometimes I think @trinnie is the only one of us with a brain cell to rub together. . .

I hope so, My own personal scylla spy on the court couls be so cool… Not the panda… :wink: I would love meeting the spirit.

spoilers


Well @Silhuetta, they will remain spirit animals. . until your character enters the Barrens in part three: ‘The Aegis Saga - Grace’

The Barrens is like a thick fringe of wilderness no one returns from (without becoming monstrous), but inside the barren fringe. . Think avatar - but the luminous fungus on the trees are the trees. I’m gonna leave it at that - because if I talk too much about the ‘Glyf’ element, then I’ll spoil it for people. :innocent:
