World of Chaos Deluxe Extended
by Dominic 'TamerKoh' 'Dlbrooks33' Brooks

Story
The world is living in fear, because demons known as the Chaos Elementals, that each have power with a specific natural element, have begun terrorizing the world and creating mass destruction.  Many warriors from around the world have fallen attempting to fight the threat to peace.

However, Koh's village is home to descendants of a special group of warriors that each have something they naturally excel at during battle, that only they can do.  For Koh, this was the ability to use his sword like a boomerang, and have it return to him like none other, and is able to charge elements into his blade as he acquires those powers.  Normally, before anyone can leave the village, they must undergo the Village Trial at a minimum age of 15, which will determine if they've kept up their training and can handle themselves in the outside world.  However, due to this threat, and how the elders noticed Koh's constantly increasing level of skill with his unique technique, they decided to send him through it early (he's 12 years old in this game).  He flies through the test with ease, and they deem him strong enough to use his technique to stop the Chaos Elementals.

Instead of traveling all over the world by foot, since that would take a long time, the elders have decided to allow Koh to use the Teleporters to navigate to the lairs of all the Chaos Elementals directly.  However, due to the chaos Elementals' power, the teleporter is only able to send Koh to either just inside the front door, or in the general vicinity of the areas.  From there on out, Koh is on his own, and has the world resting on his shoulders.  A heavy burden for a 12 year old, but he'll be alright!  And so, his journey starts in the lair of the nearest Chaos Elemental, King Fritz, Lord of the Slimes, who controls the element of Water.

Info
Anyone who's played World of Chaos or World of Chaos DX, both my first games I completed, this will be right up your alley!  I've been working on this for the past week now, and I'm basically updating my old game to be much more playable and full of new content.  I won't say much more other than all of the maps are being redone, the engine is being heavily updated, and all of the enemy AI are being improved.  For now, have a preview.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5QTl9CiIis" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5QTl9CiIis</a>

And also have a small demo you can try out!  The demo is over when you defeat the first boss, as the next content is still being developed.  Make sure you put the game in it's own folder.
World of Chaos Deluxe:  Extended - Demo Download
The following download is for those who wish to hear higher quality music in-game.  After downloading it, extract it into the game's folder and the mp3s will be loaded in as soon as you start the game.

Below is a video showing changes, updates and additions based on feedback received and my own plans.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20zsyhJtVYc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20zsyhJtVYc</a>

And with that, have a new video, which shows the boss fight at the Sand Tower.  Of course I made him a bit stronger since the video, since this was my "underachiever" test file, meaning I completely ignored all the optional routes in favor of the lowest stats to try and balance enemies.

Below is a video showcasing the elemental charging system, with the element of Water.  Also a couple of other changes and updates~
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gml4QJyDF6g" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gml4QJyDF6g</a>

Here is a new video to showcase the Wind Element.  As you can see, not every elemental charge will be a pure-offensive based charge attack.
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51TtrGQtrXk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51TtrGQtrXk</a>

Another elemental showoff...you'll be starting with this element.  As you can see, Fire is pretty random with it's projectiles, so it's not super reliable.  But as with all the other charges, damage is boosted higher than the slash attack, so it could be useful just a bit, but not as much as the later elements.

Well although many things are still incomplete and are being worked on, I decided to go ahead and make a new video to show what's happening, to keep you all updated.  It's pretty much self-explanatory :).

Dang. Why hasn't anyone commented on this?! This looks pretty good, honestly. The game plays very nicely, with fluid controls and the animations make for a good response to whatever it is you're doing. I think the collision between the player and the enemies should be tweaked a little, though.. I always felt like the character should be thrown back a little bit when they got hit(not all of the time, but during some events like when an enemy jumps at the player).

This is a good start though!

Thanks for the feedback!  Actually the reason why I didn't add knockback for either side is for the points of extreme platforming; I didn't want anyone getting knocked all the way down or smacked around, so the shaking effect was added, and Koh's invincibility timer afterwards was increased :).

Here's a preview of the upcoming Zone, the Sand Tower.

Looks great, though it seems that the new area is harder than the sewers(Correct me if I'm wrong namewise)
The song seems familiar to me.

Well it's verbatim called the Water Works, but it's about the same :).  All music and sounds are from RPG Maker RTP (various versions) because I have no idea how to compose music XD.  Also, the enhanced music are the MIDI's passed through soundfonts.

How about the full story?  I've typed this all up a couple of days ago, and didn't want to post it until I had another video to show, which I do!  But story first....

Story
The world is living in fear, because demons known as the Chaos Elementals, that each have power with a specific natural element, have begun terrorizing the world and creating mass destruction.  Many warriors from around the world have fallen attempting to fight the threat to peace.

However, Koh's village is home to descendants of a special group of warriors that each have something they naturally excel at during battle, that only they can do.  For Koh, this was the ability to use his sword like a boomerang, and have it return to him like none other, and is able to charge elements into his blade as he acquires those powers.  Normally, before anyone can leave the village, they must undergo the Village Trial at a minimum age of 15, which will determine if they've kept up their training and can handle themselves in the outside world.  However, due to this threat, and how the elders noticed Koh's constantly increasing level of skill with his unique technique, they decided to send him through it early (he's 12 years old in this game).  He flies through the test with ease, and they deem him strong enough to use his technique to stop the Chaos Elementals.

That's what happens when you get a surge of motivation :).

I was thinking about giving the graphics a res-lift.  I haven't completed all the sprites, naturally, as I haven't fully decided yet, but here's a sample:



What do you guys think.  For better or for worse?

Much better, in my opinion! You can actually see some sort of facial expression on your character. I like this upgrade!

Thanks a lot!  I've decided to go ahead and make it an option that's either set to High or Low (High by default) in the options menu, so that way people can have it either way.  I'm in the middle of redoing all the maps, and updating all of the code.  And I've tried fixing up the sprites a bit.  Old on the left, new on the right:

This is now cancelled.  Due to the harddrive failure, the files got corrupted, including the backup files I tried to copy over from it (I could still access it, but am unable to boot from it), so onto another project with me...

I'll basically be working on its sequel next, World of Chaos 2:  Kenta's Journey.  The one involving Kentarou and his journey across the world, 3 years after the events of the first game.  I'll make it so you won't have to have played the first one to get the story of the second one, by including details of course, but the first one will now come at a later time, since I pretty much have to start from scratch.

This... is unfortunate. Dude, I'll be happy to give you hosting here if you need a place to back stuff up. Just send me a PM and I can arrange that. That way it doesn't happen again

I really appreciate the offer, but the problem was my own fault.  I do keep backups on my Box on Box.com, but the thought of backing up the game often slipped my mind, and now I'm paying the price.  I'll remember to make frequent backups every time I update the games from now on.
