The small things in lif...graal.
 

I always wanted a smallish RPG server like some other games (I'll never get around to making it x3...)

Not advertising them but I used to always play games like tibia and darkages longggggg ago besides graal, and each of them were very good games in thier own right with 2d, isometric-ish style.

I R DEMAND SMALL GFX FROM YOU....nostalgic :3

Thing I've worked on
that's my next Server concept, will work on it more when I got some more time

(note: lights are animated images, really nice ambience)

Ooh, reminds me of the Mana series. Looks really nice Elk, could you post the gif for us to look at?

there :p
found another room built by angelu

Get a server going already

Oh, that is nice.

Also, this.

Nice, I like the shield the best! What's the third thing though?

so hot, i want to help :(

Why would you create a 16bit server? Seems more like laziness than a stylistic choice.

its look pretty cool actualy

Yeah it does, but I'm on my PC not my SNES nor an emulator. I guess there's still people out there that like that SNES 'classic RPG feel' to their games, but something like that over Crystia? I wonder what would be more popular.

why is it such low res o_O the pixels are twice as big versus the character - it'll stick out like a sore thumb

I never got to see any screens of Crystia I think :(
This is making me miss V$:Conflict

a lil' flower vase for the lil' people

How come?

I disagree. I like the style. I could get into defending it, but if you see no charm in a clearly pixelated look... well... I guess there's nothing I can do other than try and convince you that "some of us do"

Also...
There is nothing lazy about that tile set. I especially like the chairs and flower :)

I'm interested to know what your idea for the characters are... I'm assuming if the concept was taken further new sprites would be made with the same pixelated look? How would the animation go? Would everything be made, and then a portion of the screen permanently zoomed in to keep the size of the pixelation you have now? The characters edge would look odd otherwise.



Aaand on a side note I've never heard of Crystia before.
You talk about it like we already know the measure of each projects worth
(though crystia does look interesting)

because it was hot :cool:

If Elk and Angelu were to design a server.....it would be.......beyond compare.

Or it would be called crystia and would have stopped development :p

gimme real working staff and i finish a server >_<
after a month iam the last one working and thats really unfunny
that was the prob on esteria and also on crystia
i cant finish a server alone
but what happened to your projects ? :p

What projects? :P Name one and I'll give you a reason.

dev clockwork
its not like you finished a server yet like 99% of the devs

No, I havent, have I ? :P

Dev Clockwork was renamed Wartime, though that stopped when my main nat created half of every essential script, and then ran out of gold and wouldn't buy it for himself. After that, and attempting to hire new nats, (I had plenty...) no other nat seemed up to the job of working on the larger scripts that were half there, and thus Dev_Clockwork became Testbed rather than just sit and die.

I still have wartime on backup, and might bring it back sometime, it was already well into the making, lacking a few scripts/gfx and a few battleground levels.

little foot! Attachment 47684

Anyone remember playing 2d Zel*a :D
That was so much fun xD
Has similar graphics to graal :)

Your daily education:
Graal started out as Zelda Online, but due to copyright issues Stefan (yes, he can actually do some half decent graphical work) had to redo almost the entire tileset. I'm sure you've noticed that the castle tiles are basically the same, as well as some other (small) resemblances that seem too eerie.
Anyway, then the name changed to Graalonline.
