Usuru is getting deluxe...and coming to the Pav!

[1ce]

Not to be confused with Ursus, made by Obright. This is a completely different game.

I realize most people may not know what Usuru is, so if you want a quick, easy explaination, check the wiki site:
http://www.rpgmmag.com/wiki/index.php?title=Usuru

And of course, I'll be glad to explain some of the stuff here.

Usuru: Ultimate Story is a M rated game for RPGM1, and saw it's release on May 12th at the rpgmmag. It was a generally linear game with a big focus on story and characters, and I'm very proud that it has been completed after nearly two years in development (in fact, tomorrow on Aug. 15, the game will hit it's 2-year anniversy of development.) And while not perfect, the game came out the way I wanted it to, with a modest amount of downloads from the site.

And ever since I started making the title, I always played around with the idea that I'd make a better version of it and release it to the Pav. I didn't think I'd get to a point where I could do this, but I'm excited to announce the deluxe version of Usuru being released exclusively to the pav.

Titled Usuru DX: Ultimate Story, it will include everything the original had plus new features, such as:
-RPGMaker Pavilion exclusive
-Extended ending
-Updated graphics
-Fixed bugs and glitches
-New side quests and mini games
-Creator interviews

And that's not including the features already in the title:
--A readme file
--Maps of the world
--Concept artwork from the creators
--Notes taken during the creating process
--Outlines of the entire Ultimate Story
--Two audio clips by two of the creators explaining the entire Ultimate Story.


The commentary can be seperately downloaded at the Quixotic Forums.

Currently I'm shooting for an August 27th release.
Hope you guys are looking forward to it

Progress Report!

I've managed to do a lot with the game in a short time. Since I'm basically editing content, things get done faster.

I've finished updating the graphics. For the most part I thought it looked great, so if you start comparing you'll notice mostly small things. Some areas got big changes, like the 5th area of Boggy Swamp. Before it looked like a collection of pieces from the editor. Now it's much more complete and smooth, rather than crazy.

And extending the ending was rather easy, as well. Since the game was cut to make a release date, areas that continued the story were simply stored in memory. So, proper links, a little editing, and BOOM! Works

I'm still going to need to go through the text and edit much of it. Apparently there are a few speling errors to fix and anything that doesn't sound natural will get fixed. And the interview at the end, I'm trying to make it a bit of a surprise and treat.

And I mentioned mini-games too, didn't I? Well, I'll put some of those in there too.

Well, the title is nearly 100% complete. Some little things here and there and I'll be set to ship it out come Aug 27th. Hope you will be there!

Bad news.

My crappy computer is giving on problems. I'm still shooting for August 27th, but it could be delayed as far as late September.
