Path to Mastery
Practice Work
Fox Dive
2017 Global Game Jam
This is my first time attending a game jam. The topic is "wave", and we are only given two days to finish the work. To guarantee that we can finish it, I decided to use my “old friend” RPG Maker as the development tool. We barely finish it and I was too tired to make more improvements in two days. This is a simple mini-game, but making even a simple mini-game could be really challenging.
Market of Three Little Pigs
Level Design Practice
Three Little Pigs is a well-known fable. In the story, three little pigs get their material from human. However, the story didn't cover the details of the human world. Suppose it is a world where human and pigs can live peacefully with each other, human has no reason to give the building materials to the pigs for free. So, the pigs must have trade the building materials with human at a market! With several iterations, I have this final version of the human market in the world of Three Little Pigs.
Pokémon Adventure
Platformer Prototype
Pokémon is well-known as a RPG. However, Pokémon TCG and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon have achieved huge success. So how about a Pokémon Platformer? This is a basic platformer system with enemies, characters, jumps, pits, projectiles and gravity controls.
Summoner's War: Heart for Freedom
Strategy Game Prototype
RPG are enjoyable, but it requires relatively long time to finish. Since people are being less and less patient, quick game are becoming more popular, especially on mobile platforms. This game is similar to Paladog. Different battlegrounds have different enemies and skills. Due to the limitation of RPG Maker, the game speed cannot be accelerated. Rebuilding it on a better engine could possibly be a reborn.
Pokémon Dungeon System
PCG/UI Simulation
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon is a popular series of game on NDS. It drains me more than 100 hours of time, which is much longer than the time I spend on other games. With enough understanding of the game system, I decided to make a copied version of it with my custom modifications. It was definitely not easy. The game was very indulging because the dungeon are always randomly generated. It costs me months to build up a random level generator and basic UI of the game. Now understanding the key elements of this game series, maybe I would make a better one sometime later.
Warriors of Magic Dragons
JRPG, first game ever made
I am a fun of JRPGs, and I always want to write an epic story and make a game for it. With the help of RPG Maker, I start to make games. With 1 month prototyping and 4 months of iteration, I proudly release my first JRPG! The battle system and story may be naive from most players' perspectives, but 2D RPG Map design still looks excellent. This is my first game. Reviewing it always reminds me my enthusiasm. This is where my dream begins.
