So I've had this RPG Maker software on my computer for some time and I thought it'd be great to pump out a game while I had some time inbetween animation projects:

It's called Tangerine and when it's all done, it'll probably be around 1 or 2 hours long.
This is actually based on a short little comic I was planning to do a while back, but when I was trying to think of a story idea I figured it was the best fit because it already had a bunch of references to classic RPG's and stuff. All the in game art will be hand drawn because I'm not a big fan of the pixelated tile system.
I like difficult RPG's though, so don't expect this to be a cake walk...
Even though this is just a measely little RPG Maker game, working on it has given me a new found appreciation for the overall design of modern RPG's. Seeing stuff like Grand Kingdom UI design after spending so much time designing the look of my battle system is mind blowing.
I have a bunch of other game engines just laying around on my pc, so who knows; maybe I'll dedicate some time to cranking out a bunch of different games and we'll finally get to see that Kerslash fighting game I've been fantisizing about...
When I get close to being finished I'm going to be needing some voice actors that can say ridiculous things like "INFERNO SLASH!" and have it sound cool. I'm also debating on whether or not to add some animated cutscenes later on, but for now I'm just focused on finishing this thing.
I'll drop a link when I have a playable demo ready...
