This project took way longer than what was
expected really. It was originally expected to
take maybe a week, but it seems I started this
game about a month ago :) I got really apathetic
during the development. It's actually quite a
simple project. I probably spent about a weeks
time on it over the course of that month ;)
The purpose of this game is to demonstrate some
of the basic RPG features of Sphere and the 2D
'particle' system I created for the battle
system in Caelstis Crepsculum.*
Some of the code may have been copied from other
sources... basically crap that I didn't want to
waste my time doing myself.
Currently there are only four special moves,
making the game quite dull.** I'll add more when I
feel like it, but this project is due today at
2:00 for my gifted class, so this does it for
now. Everyone gets sick of a project after a
while :)
How to play:
- Space activates NPCs and signs.***
- Enter accepts messages, continues when waiting
for a key press, etc.
- Arrow keys are used for inserting special
moves. Learn special moves yourself by fucking
around or viewing the code like a cheating
asshole :)**** Maybe later I'll add a thing where
you can learn the special moves your opponent
used when I add more moves.
- Arrow keys also move your character around.
- Escape or Alt-F4 quits the game ;)
- Save your games from the "SAVE" point in the
dorm room. Load your games from the "Sign In"
option on the start screen.
That's it :) Thanks.
Feel free to rip any of this code. I don't really
care about you recognizing that it's mine :) If
it is useful, turn it inside out, rip it to
shreds, whatever.
Thanks for playing!

***For some reason you can only talk to NPCs
from the sides (?)
