In Progress

[Abronsyth]

Disregard the three first pages of posts, as those are in reference to a previous idea.

I've been working for several years now on learning how to manipulate the Mysidia script to make it do what I want. The project I am working on now is to be the end result of this learning and experimenting. My script has been heavily modified, but I will not be releasing the website until after the release of Mysidia 1.4.0 in anticipation of the new features that will be included, that I myself am incapable at this point of creating myself.

However, I am still working on modifying the script, making art, etc. So I will be able to show off some things and talk about my struggles and successes here.

For now, here is a screen shot of my current site theme, which I've worked hard to make functional, visually appealing, and not too crowded or overwhelming:

Ooh, looks nice! :3 I look forward to seeing it develop.

[IntoRain]

Looks interesting! Good luck with your project!

[Abronsyth]

I'll be keeping the three starting levels the same, possibly the fourth as well, but for adolescents and adults I'm going with a simplified style for the sake of making clean and easy to decipher designs. I'll post some adult examples when I can :)

[IntoRain]

Will the creatures be grown in a lab? The design is so good, it has me sooo curious :o

[Abronsyth]

I'm working on redesigning the myadopts page right now to reflect the setting more accurately. To answer your question, IntoRain, in short yes!

I love my little pixel babies, but I've found an easier to work with style, here's a little spoiler;

Ooooh, really nice! I'm excited to see its progression!
I get the feeling this is going to be similar to Jurassic Park? (maybe I'm completely wrong lol) If so count me in, I'd love to be a tester or something if you decide to have any! *o*

[Abronsyth]

Inspired a lot by Jurassic Park, haha. I grew up with the films and love them despite the inaccuracies. However, it's going to be only Theropods, among other things ;)

All of the pets will be based on the most recent accurate depictions of the species, though.

Ooh that's exciting! That style is adorable, loving the little fella xD

[Abronsyth]

I've updated the first post with as much, but here are the new growth-chamber levels for all pets! The fetal stage is significantly more vague, so it actually looks like it could develop into anything from a microraptor to a t-rex.

man, i love that idea of growing things in test tubes. Art is great too!

[Abronsyth]

Alrighty, after playing with the style a lot I've come up with something I rather like. It took me ages on this one base, but I think she's lovely!

I'm leaving the three test-tube phases as-is because I love them, but the next three stages will all be in this style.

Another change; I've decided to go with my original plan of just doing raptors and will focus on variety in designs rather than species. With each of the last three stages there will be alternate male and female bases, each in different poses.

OMG I am in love with them. :usedusedused:

[Abronsyth]

You can see some massive updates made to the first page. Yeah, I know, inconsistent as usual...but I have an actual plot...I'm hoping I convince myself to stick with it. Anyways, I'm working on item art, it'll all be in an 80x80 frame with the background shown (except for special events). Here is an example of a small (Apprentice) potion!

Ooh, I really like that arcane circle concept. It's really cool! :3

[Abronsyth]

Thank you, Pear!

I've made some major breakthroughs!

1. Fusion is Fully Functioning
Once a user has two Arcane Stones fully energized, each of the same type, and one being solar and the other lunar, they can combine the two stones. They select the type of stone they're choosing from in a drop-down list (it only shows stones :D). Then they can choose from any of the stones they have that are the selected type. They select the solar, and the lunar. Once they confirm the action each stone is removed, and they receive the dragon egg!

2. Stone vs Dragon Discrimination
There are specific stats that show for dragons which are absent for stones such as name, personality, and speed/stamina/strength/sense. This is whether you click it to see the profile, or are managing it. I've also made it so that users can only select a dragon to be their familiar, not any stones.

And of course I've been working on more artwork :eye:

For dragon artwork so far I just have the egg and hatchling done, I'm taking my time to make sure it turns out how I want it to.

If you don't mind can i also contribute to it as coder :jay: and i am sure this will be best game ^^

[Abronsyth]

Thank you, and I appreciate the offer but I've got it covered :happycbig:

[Silver_Brick]

Can i get early access to it (: please... if you can pm me the site link it will be great ^^ i will test the site and find if there is any bug or errors

[Abronsyth]

Sorry, there won't be any early access release, but I greatly appreciate your interest!

[Abronsyth]

Here is a screen shot of the World page! From here users can explore the world of Arcane. Most of the locations offer some sort of activity or places to get uncommon varieties of stones, however there are three locations (the woods, lake, and mountain range) that can be explored in depth! All locations will be needed to complete a variety of quests.
