Welcome to Twilight Dreams! The website before you is home to the Twilight Project, namely for the first game developed here, Twilight Dreams. It is a free 2D MORPG, originally based on the Elysium Diamond game engine that uses themes and elements from the .hack series. Be sure to stop by the forums and chat with some of our community's members in addition to playing the game. We hope you enjoy your stay here in the Twilight, and find everything as you need it.
First, the Eclipse engine (which we're trying to use as our base) is working on an update - one that will fix a ton of the problems we're dealing with now. So instead of working on these problems and never getting anywhere, we're just going to wait and let them fix it for us. The only downfall to this is that we don't have any idea when they'll get the update available and stable.
Second, my desktop (the host PC) has a problem with its power source, and will therefore not turn on. We're trying to get it sent to someone to fix, but let's just say we're having a problem getting it to the guy. So we can't work on mapping or developing either right now... yay us.
Let's all hope that Eclipse gets their updates out and stable very soon.
- Implement and test the gate
- Code in a minor (but necessary) change
- Map Mac Anu's interior (shops, etc.)
- Finish Field 1 (DrunkenNinja's area - he's been having trouble with his net)
- Finish setting up the first tier of items and Spells
After that's done, we will let players come in and start helping us test in the Open Beta. An account wipe may not be needed, but is possible, once the first full version is released. Also, the first tier of Arts (physical skills) will be added in if there is time. Otherwise, they will be added during the Open Beta period.
Also, just as a note, we have about three fields and almost four dungeons finished, and the town's outside is about 2/3rds done.
Here's a quick overview of what the recent news posts were (from newest to oldest):
- Development on the new engine has begun
- A new game engine was chosen
- New Website Design
- Data Server Crash > all of the old game data was lost, and we are re-creating it
