Wow. Sounds like fun.

By the time you release the demo, I should finally have my Max Drive. So, I'm looking forward to it.

[realitybites]

Yeah, it really does sound like fun Nash, lol Neo, did you make sure it isn't European this time?

[Neo Samurai]

I didn't get it yet, but the whole European thing was their fault.

Hopefully, they give me the right one.

[Deleted]

Yep, sounds cool!

[Bigfoot]

Sounds good so far. Except for the title, I hope thats temporary.

And if you need help with the Mario graphic... Holla back atchya homie!

Mana Warrior work a little better BF?
~~~~~~

Spells will cover all your basic areas and not as common ones:
Elemental- fire,water,ice,electric,earth/rock
Physics- Float, Haste, Teleport, Shell, Gravity(?)
Curative- cure, regen, protect, power-up, mana-up,
Special- Holy, Ultima, Meteor

Then like for fire there will be multiple fire spells and levels, along with most the elemental and some curative.

Spells will be either unlocked by exploring/shop/enemy defeat
~~~~~~~
Weapons will be similar in how you obtain to spells.

Weapons will vary in range, combos, and attack power.

In a battle against many enemies you may want something that you swing around with a lot. While in one-on-one battles you may want something more straight forward melee type.

Enemies far away may require more magic to beat while or ranged weapons like guns/boomerang/whip. Enemies close will mostly be better with melee and close but strong weapons.

Knowing the type of battle your going into is important. I plan to give a description while your cursor is over every enemy spot.
~~~~~
Enhancers are currently only so that they are used instantly when you buy them. Spells will have to be used in order to do enhancements during a battle.

As for enemies from other games being bosses, your welcome to throw other ideas out there. Not saying it will be taken but it'll at least be considered.

So what ya guys think?

[Neo Samurai]

Sounds good. My only complaint is that you're using FF names. Not that it will hinder the gameplay in any manner, but maybe the names could be a little more original. It's all up to you, of course.

If you want to keep the FF names, just tune me out.

thesaurus.reference.com/thesaurus/ makes it super-easy. Two seconds and fire magic becomes blaze/inferno/flare/volcano/etc. instead of fire1/fire2/fire3/etc. It certainly sounds cool though.

Yeah those are the types of names I was planning to use anyways, I just used fire and stuff to reference the types of elemental magic.

My spells will represent their name more.

They'll be like "sky thunder" where you'll shoot lighting bolts up to hit high enemies for example. In fact some enemies will be impossible to beat unless you have the proper ranged weapons.

There will also be different types of damage for spells. Some will have a set amount of damage. While others will take a % of your max mp, and do damage accordingly to the # of mp it takes out. Other may take out % of remaining mp and also do dmg accordingly.

This sounds very interesting. Keep up the good work!
