[FE8][YGO] Wizards&Magic: War of Dragons. BETA 0.03

Tittle Screenshot-3

I don’t know how to start
I can’t believe this yet
Well, I’m so nervous to announce that
Wizards and Magic: War of Dragons is now released!!!
We have done just the prologue at the moment but the project it’s planned to have more than 20 chapters.
Through my limitations and country’s difficulties I have finally made this project playable at least.
I know it remains a long path to travel in the development of this project,
But when I look back at what I have made I noticed the enormous amount of stuff we have made. So I can’t give up on this. After all, this is one of my precious dreams.
Thanks for supporting me and for be so patient waiting for every new little progress of WnM.
I hope you like this project.

Concept

This is a FE8 rom hack made using FEBuilder but I changed most of the graphics, sounds, narrative, etc. I used FE8 as a tactical game engine to create a Yu-Gi-Oh! Tactical game with an original story based on first generation.
The name of Wizards and Magic it’s based on the name that Kazuki Takahashi (RIP) gave to the card game in the manga. Magic and Wizards.

Story

The world it’s habited by magic and mundane creatures, but the dragons for unknown reasons started to migrate from the Mountain of Beginnings, destroying everything in their path.
The events of this game are around this uncommon event specifically. That’s why War of Dragons.

I feel threads like this would be incomplete with some screenshots to get us all hyped for your project. Mind adding some, if you can?

This is a really fun and nostalgic project. I am especially impressed by the fantastic UI and new art assets that really gives a lot of personality to the whole thing.

I am not sure if this is intended or just placeholders, but the limited animations with the focus on the attacks themselves are really fun too. Kinda gives me a retro Pokemon vibe. Same thing for the dialogues with the battle sprites, I thought they would bother me but in the end I wouldn’t even mind a whole game with them.

The writing is a bit weak however, and I’m not just talking about grammar and typos. Dialogues are a bit stiff and parts like the initial exposition and internal monologue sound unnatural and forced. And even if that’s the intent, Mana is just insufferable and not fun, I’d advise to scale down her brattiness a notch and/or not make her shout all the time.

But other than that I’m really looking forward to it! I hope to see some Kuriboh in the future. Good luck! :+1:
