RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - Starmage - 02-16-2018
UPDATE!
Hello guys! You may now download the new version of the demo which includes the following changes:
- New battle system: Battle Symphony + CATB by Yami and Battle engine by Yanfly (Good bye, Tankentai SBS :( )
Reasons: While the tankentai sbs of the demo combined the Mog-hunter's atb looked really amazing (to me, at least), it has lots of incompatibility issues that is just too much of a risk in making the game buggy and crash-y. So I had to let it go, even if it hurts. :( But, thankfully, there were talented scripters that I found who have created wonderful battle systems that are able to duplicate the side-view active time battle system that I wanted for the game. They may be simple, but they're very clean and there was a bug fix patch released for the system that is done by DoubleX. So I'll stick with this for now, and hopefully, there won't be any more serious incompatibility issues. :)
- New simpler and cleaner menu as well as some smooth improvements from "Maker Systems".
- Enhanced game camera work from "Maker Systems" for a smoother and immersive experience when exploring the galaxy of Xerxes.
- A few dialogue changes that includes rephrasings and typo fixes.
- Battle system now shows enemy's atb gauge.
- The ATB is no longer real-time, which means that you may now take your time selecting your decisions in battle without the risk of the enemy wrecking havoc on you.
- Intro scroll sequences have been made a lot faster to avoid unnecessary delays.
And that's all of the changes for this version of the demo. (As far as I can remember.)
RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - Starmage - 02-23-2018
Hi everyone! I just updated the texts of the game's title screen and logo! ^_^ credits to: cooltext.com
Here is the new titlescreen for the next update. xD

RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - Starmage - 02-26-2018
Hi guys! I've been pondering a lot about Rave Heart's battle sprites, should I keep the charsets as battlers idea or should I actually flesh out their own original animated battlers? xDD
Anyhow, this was what I came up with so far using Piskels. xD
Klein's Idle Stance:
![[Image: 1CyUaVQ.gif]](https://i.imgur.com/1CyUaVQ.gif)
I have mixed feelings about this decision, mainly because I know that animated battler sprites are going to be very time consuming to make, at the same time, I wish to be more creative with the characters in the game. xD
What do you guys think?
RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - Starmage - 02-28-2018
Hello guys!! Here's some progress on my journey to creating animated battler sprites for Rave Heart. ^_^
I'll have an updated demo soon where characters will no longer be using their walking sprite during battles. :)
Here's what I have so far:

If you wish to give some feedback or discuss the sprites, just leave a comment. ;)
RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - Starmage - 03-02-2018
Hi guys! I am pleased to announce quite a huge update for the demo of Rave Heart, which you may now download and enjoy. :)
Changes:
Version 2.0 Changes:
- Animated battlers for each playable characters are now implemented and ready for use in the demo. (During my journey in learning how to sprite, I have come to a conclusion: It's sooo stressful, but very fun to do.)
![[Image: xuclw7w.png]](https://i.imgur.com/xuclw7w.png)
- Game is now played in High resolution (640x480), this should now remove the dark borders around the screen when playing on larger maps. (See? It is a huge update. xD)
- New and improved High res title screen.
- New game text logo implemented in the game.
- All battle-backgrounds and pictures have been adjusted to run in High res.
I hope you guys enjoy! Feel free to leave some feedback and suggestions. ;)

RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - kyonides - 03-05-2018
I was about to yell at you for updating the demo once again =_= but it was an update concerning a videoclip so no cries are needed here
For personal issues and time consuming errands I haven't tested or played it, but I hope it will be intriguing enough for my taste. 
or is it not? 
RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - Starmage - 03-05-2018
Hi kyonides! Ahaha!! I can see where you're coming from with the constant demo updates!! XDD I promise to be consistent now. ;) And it's okay kyonides, if you're going to play the game, do take your time and I really hope that you'll enjoy!! ^__^
RE: Rave Heart (Demo available) - Starmage - 03-06-2018
Hi guys!! I just wish to share some of my progress for the development of Rave Heart right now. :)
First off, the town of Dorine from Planet Kardel:
![[Image: abnH0Np.png]](https://i.imgur.com/abnH0Np.png)
(Don't mind the door-less buildings, it's still a WIP)
Klein and friends sets foot in this planet where crime is the norm, wish them luck in this dangerous escapade. xD
Manu options by Yanfly!
![[Image: HETmUhd.png]](https://i.imgur.com/HETmUhd.png)
It is an additional feature that I should've used since the very start. xD But here it is! :)
Enemy health bars by Yanfly!
![[Image: bPU2uDx.png]](https://i.imgur.com/bPU2uDx.png)
Another feature that I should've used since the very start. xD This will certainly help players calculate and invest the right damage on specific types of enemnies.
That's all guys! Hope you like it. ^_^
