So this is the result of my first Ludum Dare.

I wanted to make it in time for the competition and now couldn't even finish my game for the jam...but I wanted to submit my progress even though my "game" lacks a lot of gameplay mechanics for an RPG (and music and sounds).

It's more of an interactive storyline you can walk through.

I barely used Game Maker before, I never made a whole game by myself and I never made an RPG (+ I'm more of a designer than programmer). And on top of that I wanted to use my story as the theme which meant that I needed the complete story (which was way to long and complex so the game title is not well represented in it) so people would see the connection (the essence of it is there so hopefully someone will understand it).

Anyways, It's over now and I learned a lot.

I used the free Game Maker Studio so I could only distribute a Windows version. Sorry about that. Maybe I use Unity next time.

Have fun and follow me on Twitter @twintrite.
