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!

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...

I will look at this map and think it's the bestest thing ever.

I will also attempt to recreate it one day and suffer as much programming it as the player will mapping it.

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)
November 27, 2025 at 1:50 AM
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!)

I'd also include Etrian Odyssey HD even if it doesn't exactly count as a remake. It fixed nearly every issue the original had, from bugs to QoL improvements, and it's to the point it effectively replaces the DS original for me (and this is coming from someone who *loves* DS EO1).
November 24, 2025 at 6:43 PM
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.

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!

(OOC Facts)

-Ziarre's name is pronounced "She-Ah-Rhee"

-Her last name, Llywalyn is based of Wizardry's Llylgamyn setting.

-Similarly, her Fire Skill treeline also includes a Sleep spell as a nod to said series.

-Compared to Soleil and Runa, her design was never altered from the concept art...

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.

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.
November 18, 2025 at 9:23 PM
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...

A few enemies/spirits for The Nian-Xi Chronicles: Prelude, including a few for the upcoming third and fourth floors!

The third floor itself should be coming in a few weeks if not in December.

Among other things:

1) New title screen!
2) New Enemies (ft. Palraiyuk)
3) New Floor!

Progress through the third floor is going very smoothly. Gameplay-wise it's nearly complete. Cutscenes are still a WIP...

I managed to finish the first two floors rather quickly, which means the demo can come out sooner than expected! I'll be playtesting, meaning the demo should come out either tomorrow or the day after...

As a small update for Nian-Xi: I finished developing the second floor's gameplay! This includes the map itself, encounters and quests.

The only thing left is writing and polishing a few remaining scenes.

The Nian-Xi Chronicles: Prelude is a First Person Dungeon Crawler with five massive floors to explore, of which the first has been fully completed.

The demo for it shall include it and the second floor. Expected release in November...

"Trapped within an anomalous domain, a group of novice adventurers must fight their way through hordes of spirits to survive."
