Post by: tenniskid493 on April 22, 2006, 04:37:00 am
Yay for the first news article and there sure is a lot of progress to get posting about.

Erktheorc from Maxcoderz has made progress on his RPG, Dragon Song.  Although he doesn't have much time to code it anymore, he still manages to make some progress.  Here is the latest screenie he released.

He hopes to release a demo version of the game very soon.  The latest progress for this project can be seen http://kvince83.tengun.net/maxboard/viewtopic.php?t=1097.

CDI has also made a completly new version of FFR, Flash Flash Revolution: Calc Remix 3.  Unlike his previous versions, this one uses 8x8 tiles instead of 16x16.  He currently has the main engine done as well as random arrow game play, and plans on adding such features as downloadable song packs, a 2-player battle option, and custom songs.  Here is a screenie

JFISH, a new Omnimaga member, has made lots of progress on his new project, FATE RPG.  This project uses 16x16 tiles but still uses 8x8 tilemapper to allow for smoother scrolling.  The game is loosely based off of Norse Mythology.  Here are some screenies.

This project looks really promising..and we hope to see even more progress on it soon.  Check out the forum http://omnimaga.dyndns.org/index.php?showforum=32.

It has finally arrived.  Rivereye has released a demo of his game, Rivereye RPG.  The demo features the battle and walking engines completed, although the battle engine doesn't have animations *yet*.  It can be downloaded http://www.rivereye.net/magic2.zip.

Spengo has also made progress on his game, GTAvocado.  The game starts out slow, and gradually speeds up.  It has many obstacle cars as well as police cars.  Here is the latest screenie:

I think all those projects are equally as important as others...but I guess you guys decide which are important to you...  

 kalan I think tenniskid is doing great job on news article, there was so many projects lately its easy to forget about some, and he said he would post about other projects later, maybe a news about Necro puzzle game?
