I finally got my second copy of PS1 RPG MAKER in the mail today around 2:30, so I've been working on Black Ribbon since. Ever since the game was first released (nearly two years ago), people have complained, and complained, and complained about the difficulty, so I decided to test play the game myself and fix the battles so they'll be a little more balanced.
In addition to that, I'm also fixing up the God-awful grammar in the game. Good lord...I don't even know what I was trying to say or spell half the time...
Anyway, to refresh your minds, here's the basic storyline of the game and the cast of playable characters.
STORY: In the future, the world is in bad shape. The cities are not getting enough money and children are working at an early age. However, that is not the concern people have now; it's the Black Ribbon. The Black Ribbon is a magic spell that creates a Ribbon above the Earth that opens the gates of hell, causing demons to come to Earth. To chant this spell, you need the Sacred One. According to the myths, every 1500 years, a Sacred One is born and has the magic to create the Black Ribbon. Everyone in the world knows about that myth, especially the most dangerous people. The year is 3520, it's the time of year where the Sacred One is born and everyone who believes in that legend, is scared. The Sacred One is hidden, no one can find it or feel it. It is completely unsearchable. However, with the magic of the Holy Child, you can easily find the Sacred One. Because of the Black Ribbon spell, many people are after the Holy Child to find the Sacred One so they can kill it. Groups like SEG (Scared Execution Group), Magnum X and HASS(Holy And Scared Search), Zodiac, a group of demon worshippers who want the Black Ribbon. A beauitful witch named Aekia Celsus, is the only one that knows who REALLY is behind the Black Ribbon. Leon, is sent to protect the Sacred One for unknown reasons. With his ring, Issac. Leon must find the Sacred One to protect it from those who want it.
Leon Saga

Leon wishes he were a normal man with a normal life. Four years ago, Leon found a black ring. This ring is actually a ring you can use to summon a dark magician named Issac. Issac was summoned and commanded Leon to find the Scared One. The Sacred One is the one that can be used to summon the Black Ribbon. This will obviously kill many people. Leon's job is to find the Sacred One and protect it from people who want to kill it. Leon's a nice man. He's very curious and very strong. He uses his Issac Ring as a source of magic. Other then that, he uses no magic. He lacks usage of Techs as well.

I'm going to try to finish this by the end of the week. So in the mean time, if you liked what you read, feel free to drop a comment. And don't...and I mean DON'T download the Black Ribbon already on this site by ANY means! Trust me, you will regret it!
The new and improved verison of Black Ribbon will come with a guide (proofread, unlike the last one) and some added pictures.
Thanks for reading, and God bless.
