TSS Re-design – Have your say!

TSS will be undergoing a radical change in the next month, and you have a chance to add your input.

“Seeing as it’s a site for developers to showcase what they’re doing, I thought it best to ask the people who know.

Would you like project managers? Task list/To Do list things? A worklog to show people what you’ve been doing? The ability to upload screenshots to the main TSS site? Possibly your own area of storage?”

Either post in This YoB Topic, or send me an email at ty@shining-online.co.uk and send me some ideas.

Shining Odyssey screenshots!

I thought this might be worth posting about :).

Coming directly from Zylokh:

Battle 1 is finally bug free (or so it seems…)
In addition, I’ve been working on graphics, lately.
2 sceenshots are available on the web site at www.geocities.com/zylokh/ (dead)

Left before next release:
– items (weapons, …, money, shops), (long and tough)
– Friendship, (long, easy)
– Experience points and levels, (easy)
– Ennemies’ AI (could take a while)
– Show text letters one by one… (easy?)
– Saving/loading (???)
– paralyze (easy)
– Show accessible tiles during battle, (should be easy)
– battle 2 (already started)
– music (should also be easy)

Maybe I won’t add all these before next release…

Interviews III

Finally, I’ll be interviewing DevelinTales and Grom, programmer and “creative person” respectively of the “Shining Force: The Awakening” development team, about what they hope to achieve with their hugely ambitious project.

I’m afraid this won’t be as good a post as the previous two, because I’m hugely tired, but I can recommend you check out the Shining Force: The Awakening website here, and read up on the game here. Although little has been seen of this project, the team seem talented and dedicated, so this is definitely one to keep an eye on.

Submit your questions here.

I’ll be around in about two weeks, so hopefully you’ll all have sent me lots of lovely questions to ask to all these lovely people about their lovely games. Lovely.

Keep the faith!
