Title: Kingdom Hearts Fan Video Game
Post by: voltage on August 21, 2015, 07:11:44 am
Hey everyone,

I'm new here. Pleased to be among all of you. I absolutely love Zelda too, but a few days ago I already embarked on a KH inspired project. I hope you guys will really love it and perhaps I will move on to Zelda someday.

Hey, welcome! Kingdom hearts is a phenomenal game, I recently replayed it and got the ultima weapon for the first time, felt like such a badass.

There's some pretty brilliant coders here who I bet would help you. I am not one if them, sadly :/
But best of luck with your game. I'm eager to see it progress.

@Donotfeedthemax

Thank you so much for stopping by! It's great to be welcomed in a community to share. Kingdom Hearts is a wonderful series, I think some of its plot lines have stretched far enough and I'd like to create new ones. It's been years since I've played. I picked up Kh 1.5 Remix just last week to remind myself of the gameplay.

Great programmers you say? I'd love to talk to all of you, I've got quite a few years myself. XD (What engines are common here)?

Unlike other fan games, I won't be ripping a single 3d model for this. I'm not as good as the pros, but I think I'm good enough. I want to make sure all the content melds together nicely.

It's been awhile and this time around, I've got for you a few bits of news. First off, say hello to our first heartless Requiem. He comes in all sorts of variants, some big/small/fire/ice/thunder/etc. From this screenshot here, you can see not only is the Requiem model finished and in need of a skin, but he's also playable for the time being as programming the game mechanics are underway.

Along with our new baddie, we've also got a shot at our new gummi. A first in any fandom, the Valkyrie. This ship will serve you well as you travel the deep space missions.

In addition to this small news, it's also worth noting that 3 worlds are currently written up and hopefully more along the way. I think you'll find them quite nostalgic.

I'm taking suggestions for in-game content btw. If you're a fan of this series and want to incorporate some kind of influence. Here's your chance!

There's a couple of huge Youtubers out there that I know would cover my content further down the road. I intend on emailing them when a playable demo is attainable.

(Image links aren't working because of dropbox?)

Till next time.

For me, the image links aren't working (yeah, probably because of dropbox), probably because following the link, I have to download the image to see it on the page. Probably just posting the image somewhere other than dropbox would be better for showing the images on forums. Also, if you hit the reply button here you can attach the image right to your post and don't have to upload it anywhere else, I assume that hosts the image on the ZFGC servers or something. I actually have no idea how it works :p

It's nice to hear from you again Max! The views are climbing up there, so I know some people are interested!  XD

I figured out the dropbox issue and all of the spoilers should work just fine without the links.

Yikes! I won't rest until you have a quality game!

The Unknown character model was severely unfinished. I imported him to the engine and he had plenty of graphical errors. Now he's more refined and there'll be at least two variants! What could this mean for the story?

Sorry, at least on my end, I'm still just getting tinly boxes with "?" in them.

Hi voltage -- those dropbox links are not publically viewable, so we cannot see them since we are not logged in as you :(

Hey guys. Thanks for continuing the feedback. How strange this has turned out. I switched to Imgur and updated the posts. Can you see them now?  :huh:
Title: Re: Kingdom Hearts Fan Video Game
Post by: Max. on September 16, 2015, 08:28:49 am
Works perfectly now : )

I don't know if it's just me or the perspective or something, but it looks kinda like the Nobody has pretty short legs and/or a long torso. Reminiscent of Wind Waker's style, which I love. It'd be interesting to see Kingdom Hearts done in wind waker style, haha.

The model definitely seems to have a bit of a giraffe neck going on there though.
Title: Re: Kingdom Hearts Fan Video Game

The torso is an illusion, because he's wearing the coat. More of his legs are actually tucked underneath the tasset portion of the outfit. I've been wondering the same about his neck. Someone else pointed this out to me too, so I think it shall be dealt with.

As a side note, I'm happy to report I've got a dubstep mixer on the team. He goes by Termina Valley and you can hear one of his great songs below;

Hello Everyone! I am back. Newer content is continually on the horizon and for this update I have a four part segment;

I am so excited to keep pumping out content for you guys! Gameplay is just around the corner, perhaps within the next 5 updates? Maybe longer as I will want to refine animation as beautiful as I can, as well as create a youtube channel. I'm hoping my content will reach the X-Keepers on youtube. If you've been following this, please put in a good word to them for yours truly. I'm always looking for more inspiration and you guys are my motivation.

I know there've been gaps between the usual Update time spans and I took this liberty in-order to keep behind the scenes content hidden. You can expect random drops for updates from now on, but rest assured hard work is always underway.

You can find my Imgur channel here for up-to-date images;

Till next time.

Haha, is Hyrule one of the worlds Sora can visit in your game? That would be sweet, especially if you got a master sword inspired keyblade for completing the level :D

Yeah, Nintendo is replacing Disney. I would've left some plot, but it seems like not many are interested here.
Title: Re: Kingdom Hearts Fan Video Game
Post by: Max. on November 11, 2015, 11:29:49 pm
Whaaaat? So Sora's traveling to like, the Mushroom Kingdom and Hyrule and Brinstar and stuff? That is SO cool.

And yeah, in general it is a little dead around here. Lol, I'm like the only one who's replied to you, but good for you for continuing on posting updates here in the face of overwhelming apathy! You have a strong game developing spirit :p

Even if I am the only one, I am pretty psyched to see Sora wandering around Nintendo's worlds. Keep it up, man!

It's possible people are silently lurking, like myself. I haven't played the KH games but I think your fan game concept is fascinating. Don't fret about lack of activity ;)

We're a bit of a slow forum, but we're definitely paying attention :P

Thanks for the boost in Morale everyone! I've got double the views and posts in a KH specific forum and none of them have commented on the Nintendo reveal yet lol. So it's good to hear it from some Nintendo fans that this is sick. ;)

I can promise you a duel with the Great Desert King himself. (Spoilers?) He's too much to handle without the Hero of Time!

Ganondorf sounds like a SWEET boss battle, that's too bad that Kingdom Hearts fans aren't excited about Nintendo being pushed into the world, but that's kind of the creative advantage of fan games, you don't have to limit yourself in ways official developers have to. Fan game creators are already just ignoring copyright and intellectual property laws, you get to ignore them in creative, original ways!

The protagonist looks pretty cool, he's got a much less complicated costume than Sora so that'll be good for modeling him, huh? I like his hair. I cut my hair kinda like that yesterday.
