The Beta is Here!!!!

Okay a couple of instructions:

1. Approved beta testers have an obligation to complete at least one BETA TEST form. Visit http://www.absolute-support.webs.com/ and click on Beta Test. Fill out that form once you're done one storyline.

2. As I've said, psychokind's storyline REVENGE is not yet available. You can play the intro, but that's about all you can do.

3. Some dungeons are only half-formed. The Land of Mu in particular is awful. Just head north from the entrance to get to the Seaside Palace.

4. Music cues aren't final.

5. Your primary job is to determine if you like the gameplay styles, combat system and storyline.

6. By the way, Captain Morgan (an enemy in Rainichan's SAVE THE WORLD) storyline has like 10 HP. I'ma fix that.

7. Everyone can also visit http://www.absolute-support.webs.com/, which is the Absolute Support page. It's still under development but has a LOT of information about the game. Also email any questions about the game to absolute-support@hotmail.com.

Without further ado, enjoy the beta. And remember: The Final Release Date is August 11, 2009.

Heheh... there's a reason I didn't let you play psychokind's story just yet.

And don't worry Flamez. You will most def. be a playable in the sequel.

For the release perhaps you could bundle RPG Maker VX RTP. Because not everybody will understand that you require additional software.

Also: I forgot about it and had to download it.

[Manibrandr System]

I am already playing through part of it, I will let you know what needs to be fix/tweaked/improved.

I've put in a couple of hours, and hope to get about that much time each day (when the weekend comes around, I'll have plenty of spare time to devote to it).

From what I've seen in the first little bit, it's very addictive. Definitely old-school RPG goodness in its presentation and combat, which is always a good thing for me.

I'm taking notes as I go along. I'll probably just send it along as a massive PM when I'm finished.

Oh and if anyone wants to discuss the game in real time with other testers, the IRC chat room is always around.

Which one are you going through, just curious? I finished the Save the World scenario last night, so now I'm curious which one you're playing through.

[Freedan]

I'm doing the 'Save the World' too. I didn't have too much time tonight to get in to it, but I've gotten through the first couple of areas.

[inferiare]

Hot. You might catch things that I didn't, then.

[Jason Tandro]

Hey, just so you know, rather than go with the PM please fill out that Beta Test Form on the support site. It'll be easier for me to skim through.

Also is anyone playing "Prove Your Worth"? So far it's actually my personal favorite storyline (even moreso than my own) because of the Flashback sequences that play through in the storyline.

Also, those of you who are playing with the Integral Soundtrack, you should know that Grecliff Theme, Great Pyramid Theme and Huball Forest Themes are Valeries, and if you're playing on the Ultimate Treasure storyline you'll get to hear a lot more of her work.

Happy Hunting. Keep in mind, this is just the beta. The Final Version will have MUCH MUCH MORE CONTENT! More quests, more mini-games, more dungeons... it's gonna be awesome.

[Edit: Oh yeah and the final version will have the built-in RTP. Thanks for the heads up eFlare].
