Hello, I am jUn (stylized as such for reasons unknown)

I am a developer/artist/composer who is in the middle of making his own First Person Dungeon Crawler in RPG Maker, inspired by Shin Megami Tensei, 7th Dragon and Wizardry.

👍+♻!
Give me a few minutes--

Everything about the Third Floor is complete, from its cutscenes to its quests, so all that's left is playtesting. The new demo for The Nian-Xi Chronicles: Prelude will be released tomorrow as a result!

Good news! There's only one quest left to finish!

Once that's done, the Third Floor will finally be completed, and I will release a new demo including it. Expect it to arrive on Sunday at best!

Making bosses is so much fun, by the way--

It's probably early for this yet, but I opened a Ko-Fi! I can currently do small drawings (OC and fanart alike) as well as music (original and covers). More info in my comm pages!

It'd be so funny if my games had Level Drain enemies for no reason other than that I find that mechanic to be funny in a morbid way.

It'd also be funny if the only reason I didn't do that was because of an apparent "bug" in RPG Maker that confuses who the last actor is...

In contrast to this post: DRPGs that I'd love to finish again

The Dark Spire (One of the best soundtracks and map designs I've experienced)

SMT: Devil Summoner (Favorite MegaTen Spin-off due to this one)

Wizardry IV (I am 100% serious about this one. It's just so fast and with cool map designs)

And suddenly one of the main quests disappeared off the quest list and I have to write it again.

It's not a big issue since I can just use the demo and copy the quest script from there. But it's still very annoying...

Early Access demo contains Quick Play, which is a standard Roguelike option.

A Story Mode is 2/3rd through development, which has more of a Roguelite structure, as you do runs to build a team to fight bosses outside of the dungeon!

On today's unrelated note: DRPGs that I should really finish by now:

Kowloon Highschool Chronicle (Love the soundtrack, very unique VN/DRPG!)

Labyrinth of Zangetsu (Gorgeous art!)

Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land (Love the Spell Crafting mechanic)

Class of Heroes 2G (Playing this one RN!)

The Wizardry 1 remake is a perfect introduction to DRPGs, but without sidelining veterans with its customization options.

Basically, every new feature and QoL improvement can be turned on or off, allowing you to either play in a modern setting or with all the challenge the original had. It's great.

Among the many lessons learned while working on Nian-Xi Prelude, using the right plugins is 100% one of them.

Which is to say I'm 100% not using any menu-related plugins next time (lol). I'm kinda stuck with them for Prelude, but for everything after I'm just making my own menus...

Hope I'm not too late for #screenshotsaturday .

So here's a closer look at The Nian-Xi Chronicles: Prelude's upcoming Third Floor!

Cutscenes are mostly done, so all that's left are the quests! Demo soon!

A few facts of Nian-Xi Prelude's Main Cast: Ziarre Llywalyn!

-She comes from a family of medics, but she's too squeamish.

-When not acting as a leader, she can be airheaded.

-She can be quite easy to make sad, but hard to make angry.

I'm probably not going to do it for Prelude, but now that I figured out how walls work (amazing sentence), I realized I could make for more interesting 3D maps via textures. Like adding flat windows, paintings and furniture to houses, statues to temples, and so on.

MZ3D is a godsend...
#nian-xi #rpgmaker #rmmz #promosky #indiedev #indiegame #dungeoncrawler #crpg #solodev #oc

Doing some graphical overhaul-ing. AKA removing more of the RTP.

Since I am using MZ3D for Nian-Xi, it's less like creating tilesets and more so textures for the walls and floor. It's honestly fun to do.

Posted a new update for A Fiend's Crusade!
It fixes some bugs regarding Passive Skills and adds more dialogue for NPCs for guiding the player more, to make the game less cryptic.

I fixed a tileset bug and some typos, and balanced the Heavy/Sharp infusion.

If we're talking inspirations for our games I'd probably include

Wizardry, Class of Heroes, MegaTen and 7th Dragon

When it comes to setting, worldbuilding and design

Nian-Xi Prelude shows only a small part of its world as an introduction, so I'd like to expand more on it in my following games...
