STEEL KNIGHTS - FREE RPG GAME!posted Mar 19th 2012, 1:40PM
Mood: Confident
As some of you will no doubt remember, last year I partnered with Wombat RPGs to produce artwork, scenario, sprites and story for a dungeon crawl role playing game (or RogueLike) set within the setting of my successful fantasy radio show - the game for which can be found for free at the link below:
http://rpgmaker.net/games/3043/
HOWEVER as part of a massive seven-day contest being held to create a whole RogueLike from scratch, myself and Wombat RPGs have returned to the genre to deliver a huge sci-fi entry entitled STEEL KNIGHTS that can be downloaded free in beta form at the link below:

Eventually it will be released onto Facebook just like Golden Age: Endless Dungeon - but first there's a few things to tweak for the format. This new game offers three linked scenarios with MASSIVE dungeons and epic boss encounters that you can tackle in any order, ranged and close combat and a full-on sci-fi story. What are you waiting for? Download it NOW!
An OCT (Original Character Tournament)/ OCL (Original Character League) is when people make a character(s) and have them battle or interact with other peoples characters, in any form of artistic medium, so that could be a comic or a story.
An OCT is often quite competitive, with a tournament/ladder structure.
An OCL is a more freeform way of doing this where an artist asks another artist if they would like to have their OC's interact or battle. (Kind of like a pokemon battle c:)
It is real - however currently the OLD Knave cardgame artwork is still up at www.knavecomic.com the new art will be launched with the new site under different hosting (same address). The rules however are unchanged and the cards are complete redraws of the existing 500 made.
Sure - It's quite simple really, lots of people take away the resources and all put together maps of their own varying in size and scale, etc depending on what they enjoy or feel like doing. These then get pieced together as they come back to me into a huge map (I may have to fill in empty spaces to better connect areas, but the grid structure makes it pretty simple). The final map will be a huge worldmap as if it were a game like Zelda or Pokemon and I'll hold later comps for people to turn that map into a game, etc.
