Release | Adventures Of The Lost Fighter
Hack and slash your way through over two dozen handcrafted areas in this single-player browser ARPG.
One day you find yourself lost in a strange land with little to your name. Thanks to a helpful wonderer you are given some direction on where to find a weapon, a piece of armor, and vague direction to take to find a town. Other than that, you are mostly on your own.
The main storyline is entirely vague and could even be overlooked if you are not paying attention. It leaves more questions if at all anything. As if this is just the beginning of something greater to come one day? Leaving the adventure more focused on exploring and going about it their way.
Instead of forcing the main adventure down a questline. The game is filled with several different types of side quests. Many different characters are in different stages of their lives and their underlying professions. While other characters you find have been struck by unfortunate situations.
Not everyone requires help or has fallen misfortune. Merchants can be extremely mischievous in the fact that they are already ripping you off in buying and selling. They might even decide that deal was not good enough for them and give you even less of a deal than you were expecting with no recourse on your part and no hint by them. It’s best to hope they don’t downright rob you.
Like many ARPGs you can choose to play casually clearing every single monster in a zone, every cave, and dungeon you find. Just don’t spend too much time as monsters will respawn after sitting in a zone for a while. Alternatively, you could try to kill the bare minimum and hope that luck is on your side to drop weapons and gear you need to further progress along as quickly as possible.
While death is not a permanent thing in this realm. It will set you back even more so if you are a bit forgetful.
While in some areas you will find there are several different paths to take forward. Some will be deadly to an unprepared adventure. Others will only be slightly harder without it being exactly clear which one should have been taken first. As either path had its pros and cons for taking it first but you can travel both.
While some monsters you will be fighting alone and with ease. Others if not approached tactfully will trigger many from the surrounding area to gang up to take down the adventure. While not all mishaps are a death sentence they can become quite resource intense depleting important supplies needed for much later into the game.
Sharing My Experience About Creating The Game
This game was created as a side project that first started as a weekend exploration into a game engine that I had never used before called 001 Game Creator. I shared my struggles and triumphs in a series of posts.
These posts range from the early stages of getting started in a new to me game engine up to release. Along with developing the different zones, setting up quests, dealing with 2D elements that as a 3D game developer I have not encountered. Finally, balancing, bug fixes, and a few patch notes as well.
Game Features:
- 9 main zones
- 1 Town zone
- 17 caves and dungeons
- Over 50 items to loot
- Over 20 quests
- Dishonest merchants
- Monsters respawn after sitting in the zone for a short
Final Thoughts
If this game does well I’ll consider expanding on it by creating further content for it. Such an update will more than likely be a downloadable game over continuing to use HTML5 as that has presented some interesting bugs that are out of my control. Along with challenges for the size of the game I’ve created so far.
