Turn-based 2D JRPG using Unity 5

JRPG

Summary

The purpose of this project is the development of a 2D, JRPG-style game. Planned features include classic elements of JRPG games such as turn-based combat, map exploration and NPC interaction. This project was not begun to make a profit or to innovate the RPG genre. Rather, it was created just for fun and also as a way to practice software development.

Current Status

A release has recently been finished! This takes the form of a short playable demo meant to show core features implemented so far, including player movement, ability to talk to NPCs, basic turn-based combat, basic enemy AI and some special moves for combat. More information, as well as an executable file to play the game, can be found at the following link. https://github.com/seanlazaro/JRPG/releases/tag/1.0.0

Development and Documentation

In order to view the game to play it or experiment with the code for it, Unity software must be used. It can be downloaded from unity3d.com (the Personal Edition is free). In Unity, the folder 'JRPGUnityProject' must be opened as a Unity Project.

Documentation for the code can be viewed at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ccAKMaFjKPZXAVrcS6KL1YWx5OrgFkFmKw90K4Itdk0/edit?usp=sharing

Development notes, including records of our sources of art/music and backlog of desired features, can be viewed at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UueLm11xJHFotF6kcw-de0FaKnjqWYPhsRwJvKE1JvE/edit?usp=sharing

jrpg's Issues

Prototype Town bugs

1. Player can walk on top of trees and roofs
2. Get rid of the cactus in the forest clearing
3. There should be a bit of land that allows the player to walk around the lake
4. There's a half-tree beside the library
5. There should be some mushrooms in town
6. Make collision boxes of stumps, bushes and piles of wood smaller (more similar to the actual shape of the game object)
7. When the player tries to exit the town, this should start a dialogue where the player is the speaker and says to himself that he shouldn't leave until his mission is finished
8. There are no collision boxes in the table and chairs at the top right part of the first floor of the inn
9. There are invisible collision boxes in the central hallway of the library

Warrior Town maps need to be revised

Work with Tien to revise Warrior Town maps including placement of map objects, gui skins, warp tile placements, etc.

For example:

Go to bottom left corner of Warrior House Training Room. Then, try going to bottom right corner of room. On your way, you'll surprisingly be warped out of the room.

Exit tiles should be moved one tile down into the black space.

Combat UI appears before Battle scene has finished fading in

The Combat UI should gradually fade in along with the rest of the scene.

Enemy Prefabs don't have stats assigned.

The prefabs for all three shape shifters have the incorrect stats.
