Lucien Academy! [dead]
Update: Art 7/21/2008
Astera, The City of Stars.
This is my birthplace, my home.
But… I will never see it again.
My life here has been wasted on waiting for something that will never come.
No Talent…
All around me, children are wielding their elements with ease.
Their parents are so proud.
I can only shame my family, as a boy without power.
In "Lucien Academy", you play a young boy named Bastien who lives in a world balanced by the Elements. While every creature is born with Talent, the power to weild an element, Bastien has none. This brings great shame to his family, and so he travels from his home to a far-away city called Lucien. It is there that a prestigious academy stands, and somewhere within, hopefully, is his Talent.
This game has 4 'capturable' characters with 2 endings each for a total of 8 endings. To appease the masses, there are both Boy/Girl and Boy/Boy endings. It is recommended that individuals under the age of 16 do not play due to moderate sexual content.
Members of the team include:

Members still needed:

Bastien Niveus - Male - 17 - 3rd year - ??? Click for Image
The Protagonist. Bastien was born in Astera, the City of Stars, where he waited for the day his Talent would come. His parents, ashamed and desperate, sent him to Lucien Academy, where he would hopefully find his Element.
Bo Magnus - Male - 15 - 1st year - Fire Click for Image
Bo is an energetic and mischievous boy from the Fervosa clan. He has a fiery disposition and is a true entertainer. However, his antics get him into trouble often, and he also has a very short temper.
Cecile Moreau - Female - 17 - 3rd year - Water Click for Image
Cecile is a beautiful girl from the Piscios clan, well known by everybody in school. She is very passionate and believes that emotions are the power behinds everyone's soul. Despite her beauty and intuition, Cecile often misjudges her peers and is quick to jump to conclusions.
Marietta Faust - Female - 19 - 4th year - Earth Click for Image
Marietta is a shy girl from the Soluman tribe. She is always there for a friend in need, and doesn't ever forget important dates. Her shy nature, though, keeps her from introducing herself too much. Many students make fun of Marietta for her intellect.
Noah Amar - Male - 28 - Teacher - Air Click for Image
Professor Amar is a very quiet teacher. He is from the Caelos tribe, but speaks nothing of it. Actually, he doesn't say much of anything. Though respected as an intelligent man, his secrecy makes him a bit creepy.

The art isn't mine, but it still is really good, yeah? Router-Jax did it.
He's awesome. You should give him presents.

Re: Lucien Academy! [in need of staff]
In reality, I'm no where near done. However, I've got a ton of ideas for various areas of the game written down which need to be redone properly. In all honesty, I'm a quick writer when I get going, so I'm not all that worried about it.Guest wrote:How much of the script you got written?

Re: Lucien Academy! [in need of staff]
Thanks so much! It's coming along OK. There's still tons of writing to do, and then even more when the actual scripting comes around. It'll still be a while before a demo comes out.

Re: Lucien Academy! [in need of staff]
The premise reminds be vaguely of Zero no Tsukaima. I really like the characters and the artwork, and this looks like it will be quite good.

Re: Lucien Academy! [in need of staff]
Whoot! Sprites are now complete!
Worship the artist! [bows in submission]
They're so beautiful.
@sake-bento: I have never heard of Zero no Tsukaima, so I cannot have possibly copied. (: But, I do think the genre is used enough that I can't really 'steal' any ideas or copied anything. Out of any previously made works, this most reminds me of Kyou Kara Maoh. I suppose that's the setting I based it off of in my mind, but I didn't quite notice the similarities until I thought of it.
I still need a background artist and a scripter, so if anyone is interested or might be able to help, please send me a message!

Re: Lucien Academy! [in need of staff]
Due to a lack of brainpower, Lucien Academy is now put on hiatus.
Lately, I have not been able to write a single thing on this project. It has, for the lack of a better term, depressed me into thinking that I may not ever continue it. If it does make an appearance in the future, it may not have the same title or the same art or even anything.
I apologize to my artist, Router-Jax, for all the effort you have put into this project, which may or may not have been wasted.

Re: Lucien Academy! [dead]
If you're reasonably certain you won't be continuing the game in its current format, it might be a boon to the community to offer up the sprites for other people to use. That way they won't be wasted.
Assuming, of course, that the artist agrees.

Re: Lucien Academy! [dead]
The fact of the matter is my lack of muse. When/If I happen to get it back, I will be resuming this project, and I know that the overall concept of this will be similar. I suppose I didn't explain that properly in my other post. I also don't know if people would want to use character art that is being used by someone else. It's my original idea, though technically Router-Jax's design, and personally I wouldn't want someone to use something that I made up like that. I suppose that's just me being selfish, but if the artist wants to give it away, I'd be getting a new artist for when/if I start up again.
I think I kinda sound rude in this post.
>m< I'm in a bad mood, so in the very least take it as blunt, and not insulting.
