This is a storyline, its still a work in progress. I'm not the best at this, so any criticism is welcome, as this is what this topic is for. I need to polish this up, and make it better. So if you have any ideas, please just let me know!
By the way, my game name is now Afterlife, not Crisis.
**~ Storyline ~**
In the ages of darkness, when the Great Monarch Lexima had the whole land of Seydin open to him, he was everywhere across the world. He tried to unleash the Mythic Power, but it was hidden deep inside the temple of the Mythic Legion. The light was meant to protect the vast lands, but if it fell into the wrong hands, destruction would occur. To protect the Mythic Power was the Mythic Legion's only objective. For centuries it was kept safe and secure, untill one day Lexima almost had possession of this great power, fortunately the Mythic Legion was powerful enough to vanquish him. Lexima's dark power was so strong only his physical form was destroyed, and his spirit was carried on into an afterlife. He was trapped for years and the land was safe, but Lexima had found a way to try to get the Mythic Power… through his minions... He was able to summon minions, but only in the unholy sanctuary. He used his minions to get this power so his spirit could take control of it and he could walk the lands once again, and rule the world forever.
If there is any problems or flaws just please post, I want to make it a good storyline :) -
Any ideas for what you want? That would help.

How does it look? -

Yeah I was going to say it needs round shaped things before the head. I was looking at pics of real ones and they all had a round part, and then a long dull pin. I am going to try the heads thing again and if it won't work I'll make real looking ones. (long pin instead of head) -

I posted "If your bobbing your head right now, then give this comment a green thumb!"
It is the highest rated comment now haha!
Awesome song though, I just bob my head everytime I listen to it. -
@Ghost:
> just a quick edit. My idea of how to make the bird heads fit in more, and how you should handle the dialogue on menus instead of drawing buttons.

Yeah that looks good, but the heads don't quite fit it. I need to do something with those.
When you put your mouse over the buttons I make them turn gold. -
Have you not seen Tenacious D? There is nothing gay about a power hug.

I'd much rather give him a power hug. -
MMOFPS!
FPS = First Person Shooter.
Actually make a sidescrolling shooter, with gametypes and stuff, when your not playing a "game" (eg: team deathmatch, free for all, capture the flag etc.) you just stroll around town and you can buy upgrades. Use money earned from playing games.
There was a game like that being made, not sure if it still is. -
If you did end up actually hitting the edge of the universe, you explode and create your own universe.
That's my theory. :renzo: -
I could make one, if you want. Check my Scroll Menu topic, it would be that kind of texture.

His arms are a bit odd?
Right now he looks like a genie without legs haha!
So far it looks good though.
EDIT: The colors are making it look better. -
Well I skipped two classes today already, I gotta go to my last one because I know a guy who is pro with flash and I need his help on some scripting.
I'll try to fix it after school. Also, the heads have a good shape and what not? -
@Martin:
> Shackles… wtf?
Who hasn't seen the original one? Its kinda funny, I just found this randomly and thought it was awesome! ;D -
Alright.
I made a kind of raven head, but its a bit too much like pixel art, the scroll part is too realistic for it.
Here is what it looks like so far:
It's not quite right. I'm not too sure on how to get it to blend with the scroll better. -

Thanks for the input, I'm actually working on the pins, I'm trying eagle heads ;)
I have a small shadow on the top roll, do I need to make that one bigger and make a small shadow on the bottom roll? -
@Azure:
> Then pd all the stuff for it yourself.
What is "pd"? -
Not bad, maybe its a wee bit too thick? I don't know.

I'll see if I can make some dragon heads.
I do want this game to have 100% custom graphics. So far it is except for the sprite :P
It is free to use so it is all good ;) -
Anybody have an idea to replace those scroll pin things in the corners? Like dragon heads, or something. Also, how should I make buttons on the scroll?
