Yup, they designate how long it is until someone's turn. :)

Oh, and this project is not dead. ;D  The storyline just takes forever to plan.  I will be coding on this again in about a week, as I will have a ton of time in a car without computer access. :D

DJ, I really like the ROL3 screenie! ;D

I know how you feel.  I thought of the storyline for S.A.D. about 5 years ago (no kidding), wrote the entire script out, and it's STILL going under lots of major revisions.

Ah, I played one game that way. Maybe my first PC RPG ever.
It is harder to see that in ASCII graphics. ;D

That's okay. ;D  I like the ASCII graphics; they're easier to work with. :D

nice, and I thought Illusiat 13 storyline was planned for incredibly long :O

Originally, Illusiat 13 was gonna be an xlIB platformer RPG but I lost interest in the idea eventually. It was gonna use ROL4 storyline, kinda, but with one character. However, afterward I put the idea in ROL4, which died. Afterward I started having thoughts aboutan Illusiat game involving the collision of planet Illusiat with Earth, but then Omnimaga shutted down and I slowly moved toward Casio calcs. Later my interest got renewed and I remembered the idea around late 2008, to eventually start Illusiat 13.

Also glad this is still progressing :)

*Bump*

As most of you know, I'm working on the storyline now.  I figured I'd share the 7 crystals I think will be used in the final version:
Fire
Water
Air
Earth
Hope
Governance
Intuition

Progress is slow, but it's not at a standstill. ;D

Mhmm interesting, it does some change from the usual 5th, 6th and 7th crystals being called darkness, holy and star.

I'm glad this is still progressing. Btw will you provide new map screenshots soon? I loved how the map looked like in the first screenshot, I am curious what you will come up with next

That's actually all I've done with the map. ;D

I will have more, but I want to put actually maps in, and not demo maps. :D

I think I could have a multi-screen map screenie up in a week and a half. :)

It is good to know the project is not frozen. I hope you get inspiration to write a good story. And the coding continues at least at slow rate.

I don't have the same difficulties with stories, they easily form in my head. My only problem is writing them down.
Maybe I should write some stories repository or on request. :P It is just question of writing all I invented in paper and then to the computer.

Thanks guys. ;D
I have a neat screenie that I need to upload.  It shows moving around on multiple maps. ;D

I may have it up by Thursday. :D  (Time is hard for me to get for the next two weeks.)

Yup, there's about 8 rooms, but it looks like you go from a town into another area where there's a temple.  I need to put it on my comp... ;D
