About “Monster World RPG”

Monster World RPG is a fan game inspired by the Monster World (Wonder Boy in the US) series, made by SEGA and Westone for Arcade, Sega Master System and Genesis.
It’s no a sequel, prequel or remake, but a brand new game in rpg style instead of platform.

Along with Max, the main hero, there’s other five characters, wich can be inserted or removed from the team as you wish,
Alsto there’s many sidequests, all are kept in a special book menu, so you won’t forget them.
The main hero also can be customized with different spells, magic weapons, and more.

There may be some english errors in the game, please forgive this as the game creator and programmer both don’t speak english as their native language.
Actually some people may not care so much, since this will remind many people of their youth, when thay used to play old videogames poorly translated from japanese.

This is a complete version of the game. Other sequels will be added.

STORY

The place is Aqua Kingdom.
The hero of this story, Max, lives in the Valley of Peace near Purapril, the capital.
Since his friend Shion left for Purapril to do his knight duties, Max life got boring.
A morning while hunting in the woods he found a strange creature he never seen before.
Unsure about the creature's "taste" he decided to avoid making it his meal, but keep it as his pet.
Now that he has a "party member" he decide that's time for him to leave the valley for a more exciting life.
He decide to go to Purapril to meet again his friend Shion but while attemping to enter into the city two guards block his way forcing him to travel somewhere else.
Where will Max go now? Will Max be able to enter in town? And what is happening there?
Unbeknowst to him his "adventurous life" has already begun . . .


CHARACTERS

MAX
The hero of the game. He’s a fighter, so he won’t learn new skills by leveling up. Instead, he gets new skills by learning them from other people, by equipping certain equipment or getting special items.

PEPE
Pepe is a strange animal that no one knows its species or place of origin. He can only say “pepe”, so Max gave him this name. His species is unknown so he’s considered an “odd er”. Pepe starts with some skills and learn more as his level increases. He can’t use any equipment, but only attacking with his claws.

PRISCILLA
Priscilla is a small fairy from Alsedo, the fairy village. She lives with Eleanora, the fairy queen. Being a fairy she mainly knows healing and assist spells.

SHABO
Shabo is a death god, wich is actually a species, not a deity. Shabo knows many spells, mainly attack spells but also some assist spells. If used wisely he can be a great ally.

HOTTA
Hotta is a dwarf from Lilypad, the dwarf village. He can’t use spells but istead uses special skills. He’s a very strong character and can greatly damage the enemies. His only weakness is that he’s the slowest character.

JUNIOR
Junior is a baby dragon from Begonia. He may be just a baby, but due to his dragon lineage his power is great. He’s almost as strong as Hotta and is faster, but has lower resistances and less skills.

One thing that I hate of rpgmaker games are the charasets: thery are to small and so the characters looks too much unexpressive.
So I used the characters slots at their limits and sometimes for bigger characters I used more than a slot. Look this image and compare to the left a common rtp from rpgmaker and the ones I create for my game.


In rpg usually you got experience point or buy equipement in order to increase your party stats. This can be entertaining at the beginning, but later it becomes repetitive.
For this reaseon, even if I kept the experience and equipment system, I decided to put in the game a way to customize your hero to give him different skills and map abilities in order to reach different zones (like castlevania or metroid).


Another weak points of rpgmaker videogames is that being them "free games" there's no manual or other things. Plus they lacks menu that usually are present in professional games. MWRPG has an online guide.


Last, a common rpg game engine will become rapidly repetitive and unappealing.
Due to this MWRPG has many platform elements and minigames.


Last:
- I preferred to create small maps and dungeons in order for the players to not have to travel hours and hours to reach the boss rooms;
- in order to advance in the game is more important to find secrets and upgrade items more than levelling up: in this way you have not to waste an entire day in fighting monsters.
