Hello!

Thanks for checking out my game, Paladonia!

I’ve owned RPG Maker VXAce for over two years now and have been working on this game for nearly the same amount of time. I intended to make a small, quick game so I could get to know the capabilities better. However the more I delved into making the game, the bigger the project became until it took on a life of its own.

The game is in the developmental stages. Paladonia is the name of the continent where the adventure takes place and the continent is divided into regions. The only playable area available is called Cardrow Island.

Like most RPGs, I intended to have this first area setup towards learning the storyline, introducing the main character, and having the player get used to battling.

Since I had intended this to be a quickly made game, I had also intended to only use the resources provided with the Game Maker. I looked through the forums and found extra free to use (or for non-commercial use only) resources to expand my database in order to provide a more expansive game play. I also tried dabbling in re-colours but I am far from a pixel artist, so my resources are not original. As such, I do have the credits for the bits and bobs I have used, but have not yet created a credits screen.

I don’t have the logs of all the versions I’ve been through of my game, but rest assured that I’ve worked it over and over until it is as presented to you here. The next region, Alden, is currently being developed and will bring the game’s first castle town. I will post more about Alden in the next DevLog.

For now, here are a few screen shots from the game. Areas included are Lily’s Store, Cardrow Island, the Statuary, and the town of Alaruun. I hope you enjoy Paladonia and look forward to your comments and feedback.
