Check my daily/weekly quest system :D *proud*

[JohnDoeNews]

I've been busy figuring this out ever since I started with RPG maker (VX Ace back then) and I finally figured out how to make my very own cooldown system, for spells, items and events.

With my own build cooldown system (which I build in RPG maker MV without plugins) I can make enemies respawn, as well as tresure chests. I can make stacks grow, for example:

If you come back at a woodblock after 15 minutes, you will find 1 log available for chopping.
If you come back after a day, you will find 25.

Also I can make quest available per day, or per week. This triggers my players to come back to play my game some more. Play daily and weekly quests for token, which are currency for epic upgrades.

Other than my own cooldown system, I use some plugins by Yanfly. This offers prettier battles, and other options, like weapon and armor upgrades.

All this combined with a storyline, I have been writing on for the past 10 years, makes Warriors & Witches[games.johndoenews.nl]. (I have been writing on it for many years cause I wanted to write a huge book with too much background. If you have a flashback, in a flashback in a flashback in... well... here you should realize you went too far.)

I am really excited to show off the very first start of my game.

Would you guys want too take a look, and let me know what you think?
You can just play it on my website, no download reuired.

If you try it, please let me know everything you noticed. A bug? Something wrong? Spelling mistake? I want to know it all!! Ofcourse I would love to here all the upsides too.

Edit: This is not the actual story I've been writing on for 10 years, but it is based on it. The characters are new, but the world, and its history, its legends and its religions, they all come from the original story, what was titled: "Lean" and later, when i realized it was too much for 1 story, "Warriors & Witches: The Lean Stories" making it the first of many... (You got to have dreams, right?) The sub title to this game would be: "The Judas Stories"

That's really awesome. 10 years? Wow.

I'm hoping for a similar system to allow me to have a day/night cycle with a clock so I can have things happneing at certain times.

Lol i just got out from the cave and battling bettles even though i dont have weapons.

Is there a reason why you disable escape battle option?
Also I noticed that I always encounter beetle on same spot

[JohnDoeNews]

:) THanks. Yeah, I wanted to write a book, so I wrote and I wrote, and I even dreamed about it for a while. I wrote side stories, and whole chapters that are nothing more than background infor about character. Everything has a history, there is complex religions and so on. I have not been able to put this all in the game yet though, but that is the plan. :)

My wish was to make a world as detailed as Tolkien did with Middle Earth (The hobbit, lord of the rings and more stories) and so I worked on it... a lot.

Now I want to use MV to make my story come alive, and actually create the world I was always writing about.

About the time system, do you want real-life time? Like, do you want it to be daylight at daytime, and visa versa? That would be ideal with the system I made. (Since my system is based on real-life time)

Yeah, it is possible to walk into a wasp before you find your weapon. Avoid the grass! :p There is an axe at the woodblock, which is an uncommon weapon, since you can upgrade it many time :)

If you been battling rats and bats, you should have weapons already, check your inventroy and equip your stuff :p


Wait... You encounter beetle on the same spot? Are you sure you are talking about my game? I don't have a beetle in my game. :p

[ƸӁƷ ButterLux]

Yes, if you walk on the grass you can encounter wasps. But no beetles. :p
Only after you grab the axe, you sould encounter other creatures too.

Whaha, yeah, they aproach you. If you're talking, it has the decency to wait, but as soon is the convo is over, it attacks. Kinda nice it waits tight? (Enemies keep moving while you talk)

[JohnDoeNews]

Some enemies respawn after 5 minutes, other agter half an hour, it depends on the event, not on the enemy type.
Need more enemies? Go back into the cave, where you started. (Make sure you have the healing mark equiped, you will need it)

And maybe you have noticed enemies grow with you? In fact, enemies grow a little faster than you, so the higher level you get, the harder it gets. That is why you need your weapon and armor upgrades.

For now, you can harvest as much as you like, without leveling too far, cause untill next update, max lvl is 5 :p

Weapon upgrades can also unlock spells. There is 3 for each element, and some for poison, blind, sleep, and healing.

Oh I did not see that question before. Did you add it later? :p
Well, no not really. Should I turn it on?
If you die, nothing to bad happens, since I use an autosave command.
I run this command at the end of each event, so there is always a save right before you go game over.
