Erasers fantasy visual novel RPG [BXG]

#1 Post by zankizuna »

:lol:
first of all, I'm Zan Kizuna, not my real name
actually, You can call me Raseru, from my true name, Russel.
AND
This is Erasers, and it's a project made by just me ugh,
Could Use Some Help...!

Anyway,
It's About seeing Magic in a scientific perspective.
Basically, Magic is composed of the usage of Mana,
the ultimate resource to do the impossible.

Mana

here, belongs to another dimension. let's say, you, have mana, but I can't see it,
because it is in another dimension. this Dimension is called the Mana world

Mana World
A dimension containing mana, Normally linked to the Physical world, which is here.
once upon a time, Magic flourished to the world, everybody had it, until
it caused people to wreak havoc chaos and dislike, Humanity decided to break the link
between the mana and Physical world
. That way, no one can use Magic.
This resulted to The loss of power for many, something Humans don't like.
People waited for it to return, but in the mean time, They made Technology.

Magic hasn't come back, until the timeline of this story.
lots of adventures will unfold as this happens,
What do you think will happen? Shall Humanity Recover the link or Destroy it?


The protagonist, Breeze, is gifted with magic, Along with Flair, Aera, Wattson Geo, Marina ...


UPDATE--
The Gameplay is easy, Everybody Knows it! Rock, Paper Scissors!!
after choosing 3 cards, you will compare yours with the opponents, then a bottom battle animation will appear...
The animation is according to the result of the cards you chose, matched up with your opponent, in a definite sequence.
There are hints in the story about what card(s) the enemy will use, so It won't be so hard and frustrating,
Except The fact that I will have to disable rollback... meaning that there must be a frequent saving..

:D

There's a lot of stories about magic returning to a world where it had been forgotten or forsaken. You might benefit by learning about them, so that your VN does not end up too similar. But even if you use the exact same premise as some other game or book or movie, you can still do something creative with it. So don't worry about that.

Please let us know who your main characters are, what their goals are, and what obstacles they will face. It will help to know what sort of world they live in, and if their magical abilities will let them change it. Also, let us know how much you are focusing on plot, and if you intend to create gameplay or romance options.

Thanks for that info.. very educational..
btw my story is mainly about the protagonist, Breeze,
He didn't remember anything at first, he was Addressed by a
mysterious woman on his dream, and discovers he has
the power to use mana. He uses this to solve a few problems he encounters in Life.
Certain Beings called Vibrants, Created by a corrupt Mana force are attacking around the place,
causing bad stuff to happen.
Continuing with the story, he Meets a few people like him that also don't know about themselves.
This Group of people have devoted their lives to "erasing" these Vibrants,
thus they have been called 'Erasers"

Thank you for providing more information. A few more questions, if I may ask...

* What would it take for mana to be corrupted?
* Are the Vibrants intelligent beings with free will?
* It sounds like someone is informing the Erasers about their abilities. Who is this woman, and why is she acting at this time in their lives?
* Where will the group meet?
* Is this story more about their adventures, their ordinary lives, or somewhere in between?

I'm sorry but i think i have to explain this in detail, There are many theories that have been formulated.
Okay, let's look back, well, in the past, People were living with Magic peacefully
with, let's say, a little struggle.
this wasn't enough for humanity to decide about disconnecting the Mana world.
A certain enemy placed a curse on our dimension, that corrupted the
Mana Cores of people around the world.

Mana Cores
there are 3 basic types:
Blue Core-- The core of the normal magic user, his power is over the magic.
Red Core-- The core that has been corrupt and would NOT follow the magic user,
gains a mind of its own and eventually uses the person's body to transform into a Vibrant.
Mentality: Consume other cores, grow to be the best core in the world.
as a result of the curse, the requirements to have a red core is Influence, that Corrupts the atmosphere of Mana and causes red core transformation, more effective on people with white cores.
White Core-- Core of a person that cannot use mana or make magic. contains the standard amount of mana but has undescribable potential.

Vibrants? intelligent? well i guess they are, or could be, it depends on the body they're using, i guess. but If they can, wouldn't they use the mana they've consumed to become smarter?

The Identity of the woman will be revealed in the game, and it is a very important spoiler.
but I'll place it here anyway.
Her name is Eve, looking for her romance partner Adam.
Adam is the Disconnector of the Mana world and the Physical world,
he was sealed in another dimension and was divided into a number of people.
Ever since then, Eve had also left this world and lived until now, by magic.
Adam revived by some time around in this world as Breeze, Flair, Wattson, Aera, etc. AKA Erasers.
this group of people emitted the same Aura as had Adam, and that's what lead Eve to finding the Erasers and eventually assembled them. Their main goal now is to either lift the curse, or disconnect the Mana world once again.
The setting would be in an Island in the middle of the sea, Xarasa.
does it exist? no, I just made it up, my own creative magic.

Yeah, Actually it's pretty much all about them, and the lessons you can learn, i guess.

Sorry for the long post :|

Ohhh I'm very sorry, I guess It's gonna be different by one letter.
but wouldn't that be nice? if my VN gets famous, they might accidentally see your VN as well :)
and vice versa. but it might be a little confusing...
I guess it's my fault for choosing such a simple name...
I guess it will be a challenge to make our VNs stand out!

You can see my VN if it's plot is different from yours.
from my perspective, I do think they're very different.

The progress is fully in my blog, It's developing quite well.
I'll try to see yours.. Seeing your completed projects, it looks like the job will be easy for you.

Wow, this game looks pretty nice! I like the art, and the system is cute (If that's not an offense). I also really like these kinds of themes so I'm really looking forward to this!

By the way, I wonder what is the meaning of the title? Not that I don't like it (I actually like the word eraser for some reason XD) I was just wondering.

Oh, Thanks a lot!! I'm glad you like it!
Oh I guess I haven't explained that one yet...!
the Characters in the story that have Elemental abilities
(Breeze, Flair, Aera, Geo, Wattson, Marina)
Will end up forming a team Called the Erasers.
They will Erase(Eliminate) the Vibrants(the Enemies) that threaten the lives of the people and save the day...
this kind of story is getting common, but who cares!! I'm glad you like it!

I see you've made a lot of progress, unlike me, well, due to my own reason IRL, I guess I have to pending my progress at least until the next semester :? ...(I guess until October/November 2013).
Your art is getting better ! Keep it up ! And I think the game system is interesting as well.
Nah, although I've finished some VNs, doesn't mean that "ERASER" will be easy...in fact, maybe this is "the first real VN" I want to make it happen...because my finished project is closer to an educational game than a pure VN XD

I always liked games and books mixing magic and technology, both of them fighting each other, so tech guys vs magic guys (or girls).

So, I would be interested in how this project is going on!!!

But what I don't understand is: is this only a rock-paper-scissors game or it is a Visual Novel that we can read?

またね!
