Okay people I am a fairly new in the game building area so yea don't go to rough on my building skills or my presenting skills but I do want your opinions on the game improvements and maybe a few new players might be nice.

Game Description:
Arcania is based on the Medieval Ages when legends and magic existed. The land of Arcania is split into fractions of many different races none as that of men who eagerly fight for land and power until one day a darkness spread over the land threatening all of the races right to live. Men wielding there swords and shields stand along side their once enemy's and fight against this darkness to preserve their right to exist in the land of Arcania. The races fight to no end pushing the darkness back and back again but it continues to return until it cripples the races to the point were all hope seems lost until a Prophet came before the kings of the races and told of a legend that heroes will arise to banish the darkness from the lands of Arcania. The kings believing the Prophet to be speaking nonsense imprison him and sentence him to execution. Three years later a mysterious group of Warriors sits in a forest before the Alliance camp.......

Why did you take the site down?
The thing is, I don't see whats new in your game, something thats going to be different from anything else.

yeah I have to agree on that one, indie games only make a splash if they're completly ground breaking. They just can't compete with the finish of the multi million pound blockbuster games but they can outsmart them... and so far i'm sorry to say you haven't.

Also could we have some more info on story/graphic style/play style

I didn't take the site down myself they suspended my account because I forgot to put up a link to their site I am fixing it now. Sure Swift the Graphic style is a 2D MMORPG. The play style is basically freestyle at the moment you do what you are capable of doing in the game based on your class, level, and race. As for the story line it basically says that you are a hero from the group in the "Game Description" and you have come to rid the land of Arcania of the Darkness that threatens to destroy the four races.


The Darkness is only called "The Darkness" for now because I have not decided what I want to call it yet I am waiting for opinions and suggestions.

As for something Arcania can offer that the "multimillion pound blockbuster games" can not.... well at the moment I can not really say it can offer much they cant other then good staff to work on it and people willing to improve the game in any way possible. After I finish building the Alypse Engine I mentioned it will be able to offer a lot more then what the game engine I use now can. *EX: Pets, Scrolling maps, Bigger Sprites, more Refined Chat system PTP Trading and many other things.*

Most of the stuff you just listed is in most mmorpgs.All Im going to say is, it must be pretty big, to compete.

Sprites and Tiles are a bit Iffy right now you could say. I intend on making my own yes but until I get the game to a point were it is available to the public at all times and I can find a good Graphics Designer most of it will be what I can get. At the moment we have about 750 sprites and about 3000 tiles .... and thanks I hope it does good myself .
