About

Making Haven, I wanted to capture that feeling I had when I first played a final fantasy game or Lufia II for the first time, A strong story, likable characters (some un-likable ones), challenging puzzles and the excitement of finding a new area, a new item or a clue to drive the story further. I hope I can do that for all of you too. In addition I now get my own chance to add all those things I wanted from a game when i was growing up. I'm super excited for this project its something for me I've wanted to do since I was a kid.

Another big week for Haven

This week so much has been done, here's a quick list

    The town of Silver Thorn is 90% complete

    Day night cycles are fixed - NPC's will say different things depending on the day
    20 NPC's fleshed out each with at least 2 "game" weeks of dialog
    The Firite Mines maps are complete
    New character portraits for 'Elora' and 'Vincent' are done

    20 new character portraits for the NPC's of Silver Thorn are complete and in place
    all Cut scenes and 'cut images' are finished for the first chapter of the game

I'm still on target for a late October release.

I'm still really enjoying the whole process of creating the world and the lore surrounding it. On release of the game there will also be a Digital E-Book for the Lore of Haven, I think I'm as excited to get that out there as I am about the game itself.

Here are some of the latest screens for Silver Thorn and the surrounding areas

Looks like you're making a lot of progress.

Could I make one suggestion? I think you need to get a proofreader. There are a couple of screenshots (e.g. the very last one) where you have "your" instead of "you're". It is very hard to proofread your own work, and you will miss at least some of your mistakes. The players will spot them, however.

Hey Littlebro,

Yes it is hard to pickup your own mistakes. Since these screens were taken I've gone back over more times then I care to count fixed all those errors. I've also got a few people doing play testing its about to get it's first round of QA testing this week. Still hoping to have it finished by the end of October but the game keeps getting bigger and bigger :D

Also Briony if you're interested in play testing Haven, I'll send you a Dropbox link to the first run of the game if your keen.

Thanks guys

Oh! and EgyLynx, sorry to say Haven isn't ready for download just yet. But it will be very soon so hang in there.

Mike.

Thanks EgyLynx! I wanted to try and do something different with the mapping using photoshop rather then making tilesets. Takes a bit more time but I think its fitting a more realistic style over the cartoon/anime style that's popular with these games.

I noticed on some of the maps you have a door between rooms - but there is a huge gap between one side of the door and the wall.

Hey Littlebro,

Yes, I have noticed that, its due to using the door sprites that came in RMVX, I may go back and redraw the sprites myself to make the doors more substantial in appearance, but it depends if I get enough time since im still aiming to have this game ready by November.

Thanks for the feedback.
