Title: Selenic Shadow
Post by: RKS on 13 June 2016, 15:22:22
Betcha nobody (who's a forum member here, at least) saw this coming :P

Anyway, this is my second official mod, and the umpteenth work in the Lunar Shadow Project. (I lost track.)

You control Selena Daria van der Merwe, who wakes up in a weird place.

This mod is non-canon. (In fact, this mod doesn't even have a cannon.)

There are many bosses at the time. The demo ends at "Death", according to Ariana.

Any bugs found, post 'em in this thread and I'll fix them as soon as possible. (Assuming I'm able to; one of the screenshots has a bug I can't fix.)

Alright.

By the way, I should thank you for the mod's name. :)

(If you're wondering why… this post (http://lunarshadowcs.createaforum.com/suggestions/adjective%28%29-form-of-'lunar-shadow'/msg2361/#msg2361). Though, I forgot to mention it in the readme file, which will be fixed in the next release.)

Yeah, I figured that just by seeing the name :P

May as well post some future plans:

1. "Grié'dýr: Sound" will have a song-related puzzle. (X-Calibar gave me the idea; he was the first person to know about the mod.)
2. "Grié'dýr: Star" will have two items that can be obtained.
3. Three other playable characters. Who? I'll not say. However, I have yet to work on their sprites.
4. A few familiar faces will appear. Again, I'll not say. However, most of their sprites are finished.
5. "Grié'dýr: Darkness" will have everything (terrain-wise) invisible. Foes will mostly be visible.
6. "Grié'dýr: Thunder" will have three boss fights.

@AuroraDash: might I please add Andrea Yauman as a character within Selenic Shadow? ???

(If so, might I have her sprites please?)

Sure~! She doesn't have a full spritesheet, only normal and walking sprites, I hope that's good enough:

Also apparently there's more songs added to the mod including "Laguna Palace" of SaGa 3 (a.k.a. Final Fantasy Legends III). Medal to the badass dude who made that song in Organya format :)

Alright! I'm taking over this project, until Kim gets her memory back!

… though, the third Thunder boss crashes the game for some reason. So.

I need a lot of help. (After all, this is the first time I'm working on a mod.)

After the Thunder boss, some animation's supposed to happen, which doesn't because the game crashes at that point.
Do I just scrap that boss until Kim can deal with it (one day), or what?

Couldn't you, like… ask the Tribute Site guys for help on that major bug?

Interesting mod…

Loved the Chakram weapon; 21 damage is a lot. (That beats the Blade at the same level, even.)
I had a little trouble with the platforming for some areas, but it's nothing major.

Yeah, the only bug I found is that there's a force field in Grié'dýr: Music if you enter from Grié'dýr: Disaster.

I cannot wait for the next version, though it seems a bug makes it difficult?
What exactly was changed to that boss, Ariana?

I believe I shall have to investigate it myself; from what I saw, Ariana had removed the tiles that would normally hide the boss. Perhaps that is why the mod crashes after defeating the boss?

In the event that I am incorrect… I shall probably ask Noxid on DeviantArt for help on the matter.

[EDIT]
That seems to not be the case. I shall ask Noxid on the matter.
[/EDIT]

That music room bug has been fixed by Kim, before she got amnesia.

Do you like to sing?

That sounds dangerously overpowered.

To be honest, I have no idea if I like to sing. Either I do, or I don't.


That said, I'm likely going to scrap the last Thunder boss. (Heavy Press AI.)
I can't figure out anything as to why it crashes the game on death.

Demo 2 has been placed in the first post; as I lost my memory around 17 June, Ariana took over the mod, until the day I regain my memory.

The same reason why you are not :3

The names are backwards and thus they are naughty evil clones :<

Finally got around to playing the new version! I really enjoyed it :)


Sorry for kind of dropping off the radar lately, I've had a lot of boring grown-up stuff to do.

At least Shinica might've been playable at some point.

Still, that bug with Invidia+Nemesis still remains...

Though this mod's events are not canon, Kim says Grie'dyr's existence is. However, its canon counterpart is vastly different.

So too the Ankh Pendant's existence.

Lilith Io... lengthy name. She is canon, but her last name is Hortyn (sounds like "Horton"). She's an Erinys.

Lexus Rhubynis exists in canon (a lingerie model).

That's just a few stuff, but still something...

I did have a theory that Grie'dyr (Thunder) and Myst Zone: Demise of the Maiden were either two parts of the same area or are one and the same based on how they have the same colours which also connects to the possibility that Selenic Shadow is Selena's dying dream (or her afterlife).


Also wouldn't Hortyn be pronounced Hor-tin/Hor-tine which sounds different to Hor-ton?
Title: Re: Selenic Shadow
Post by: Charlie on 10 October 2020, 18:37:43
Grie'dyr is on the planet Dyznoir, Myst Zone's on Newerth.

And Kim felt the same pronunciation made things interesting - "is it a Valkyrie or an Erinys" interesting.

Ah. Personally it would've been easier to make them connected (or have Grie'dyr: Thunder be Selena's subconcious recreation of Myst Zone). So Kim's leaving that character's backstory open ended? Cool.

Actually, Lilith Hortyn's the Erinys who was alive at the time of the legendary Valkyrie, Lavitka Horton.

They loved each other, but that was frowned upon in those times, so they married guys instead.

They're long dead. But flower dragon.

So they basically married two guys who served as their beards. I take it that these men were bodyguards at some point?
