I would like to say that it's a tad strange to have a Heads Up Display in that manner during the overworld scenes, if the battles aren't realtime and happening at that instant like Kingdom Hearts.  I'd suggest either moving it into the Battle Screen HUD, or dropping it.

Ya know, if you ditched the Tales content and made this original, I'm quite positive you'd have one hell of an indie game right here. I love this and where it's going. It's fluid, and honestly you're on the right track!

I take it this was made with RPG Maker VX? Your custom graphics are done nicely.

My buddy and I are the only ones currently involved with this project. I will ask him if he is fine with dropping the tales theme, and thanks! I've put 100+ hours in this game.

I went with storyline. When you start a game, of course the first thing you and everyone else is going to want is a trailer; you to show off your goods, them to see what they're waiting for. But you can't have a trailer if you've got nothing to put into it. I'd wait a while and not rush it. Get in a bit of prologue, show what it's like to walk around and fight, and buy from shops and talk to NPCs, and if you're really into it tease a bit of the storyline. Maybe recruiting a party member, or showing the first appearance of the big bad guy.

I didn't see you were 75% done lol

Aesthetic suggestion: Portrait facial expressions. Dalwin looks so serious, especially next to Elsa who has this huge grin on her face. Putting in a few different facial expressions for the portraits, especially during climatic scenes like boss fights, can add a bit of depth to the character. I can tell you just by looking at the screenshots, I already have the opinion that the main character is a general serious sometimes-!@#$%, and Elsa will be my favorite.

I think I will show character bios in the next update just so everyone can see a clear picture of what their personalities and importance in the storyline is. I will also show a couple skits that occur in my game. Elsa has the most facial expressions at the moment as i am still finishing the other 3 characters faces.

If anyone is interested i'm still torn as to putting voice acting into my battle system. Thoughts anyone?

Eh, voice acting really depends on who you choose. I thought Symphonia's VAs were good for the characters they represented, but for a game like this I think I would lean more toward generic battle cries like "Ha!" and "Ooh"...that sort of thing.

Actually, I agree with Jeod. I think this game fits more with brief generic cries rather than full out acting.

That is some excellent mapping!!!! My only peeve is either move the overworld HUD to the left side of the screen, or mirror the face. Looks odd to have the character's face looking right when the HUD is on the right. Normally the characters look towards the center of the screen :P

NEW UPDATE!

CHARACTER BIOS

Through out Tales you will encounter 4 different characters who will join your party.

Darvin Slew

     Darvin is the main character in Tales. He fights like link with a sword and a shield.
Born and raised in Albador, Darvin gets tied up in an unfortunate series of events
that leads him to saving the world. He is the leader of the 4 and will always keep people
focused on the task at hand.

 


Tyrone Bryke

     To say the least, Tyrone is a handful. He is always starting fights at the wrong
time which causes Darvin and crew to become very impatient with him. He was born
in the outskirts of Ifindor (the capitol city) which really rubbed off on him in terms of
his roughness.

 


Elsa Webler

     Elsa is the heart of the 4. She is always willing to give a hand to those that
need one. She is also the white mage in Tales and will come in handy in just about
every fight. She was born in Figaro Docks.

 


Javale McGee

     Javale is the Black Mage. He rarely shows emotion because of his harsh child-
hood. Javale is the last member to join your party. He is also Elsa's brother.

 


Helios

     Not much is known about Helios besides the fact he is the ruler of the Desians
and Lyfe.

 



Opening Scene

The beginning cut scene. Not completely finished but it's close.    (sorry for bad quality)

Stay tuned for more! :)

 XD I like this! Is there a reason Tyrone's face is colorless? To me it doesn't look natural. I mean, I sort of expect to see some color like the rest of the party, and that his gray face is just a faded version for when he isn't talking.

Also, your opening cutscene has a few spelling errors. I caught two: 'primative' is spelled 'primitive', and 'untill today' has two Ls.
