Game
Project Fantasy X - Elythia



5 years ago

A couple days ago I got Aeon Timeline, and it's been such a helpful little tool. I finally organized my pages and pages of OneNote content into a manageable, easily digested timeline. Here's all of the story leading up to the start of the game!

The only way I've been able to keep this project intact is via the massive amount of notes and details I've kept totally organized in spreadsheets & sprawling OneNote docs. There's a lot of ideas to juggle, and these tools help keep me from dropping them.

This is Rina, one of the two main characters. She lives with her grandmother in Amolna Village, and hopes to one day meet her mother, who disappeared when she was a little girl. Stubborn, and a little bossy, Rina is headstrong and responsible.

Elemental matchup chart v2.0. It's a lot more well organized, pretty consistent mechanically, has some interesting balance ideas, and a lot of them can even be backed up with lore. Excited to try these out in game, which is next!

Great progress today. Knocked out a ton of the variants for different points in the story. The last main things to do are reverse engineer Henry's design, interpret my create-a-character as a sprite in my style, and... Kael. Ugh. We'll see about him... :P

Picked a bad time to stop posting, to be honest. This gif is a year old! just a snippet of how things have evolved.

Lately I've been setting up a lot of new characters, so I'm filling out my portrait project chart to make sure I don't forget anyone. These spreadsheets are so invaluable to my ability to organize my thoughts. Y'all have no idea.

From Demo 2 in #Godot. Finally got Kael's design to a point where I didn't mind spending some time animating him. And the movement is starting to feel really snappy. Really happy with where it's going.

Simon Losallion, the 53rd Sun King of Losallia. He grew up alongside Viona and Garrett Dawson. He became an incredible tactician and leader through his service in the Mystic Lions, and led his kingdom as High Commander during the Arcane Rebellions.

Here are some snippets of Rina in action from Demo 1, which was built in #Unity. I've got UI, cheat codes, and the whole backend system of the Magic Loadouts. I have since moved onto Demo 2 with Kael, built in #Godot.

just doin some concept art. waterfall jungle level in the second act of the game. I think I want to do as many of these as I can with every level in the game. it's just been sitting in my head for ages--'bout time I finally open the can and pour it out!
