I made this comedy-short in order to announce the up and coming release of my game Dragon Knight - "The Quest Begins". I will be releasing the final version of episode 1 here on NG 02/01/08. It is an "arcade style" RPG with quests, interactive characters, puzzles, mini games...the works! I hope you enjoy this little short and that it will give you something to look forward to, come Feb 1st.
I want to make a quick note of thanks to NG's - animefireball for his composing skills and his artistic tallents. I would also like to mention Joel Carlo for designing the hero character for the game cover.
(edited to add: For those who might not get the humor in this short, I was going for the effect that the dragon and knight make this huge grand entrance with flames and effects, but then a simple spider steals all of the attention by simply walking across. After being here reviewing flashes in the portal, I thought for sure this would at least get a 3.0 rating. But based on the numbers and rating so far, I guess I didn't do something right. For those who took the time to write a review, thanks I will do what I can to improve in the future. )
For a Trailer...
It gives us all no idea as to what the video is going to be about... It just shows a Dragon, a Spider walking across the screen, and some knight. Well... I think you should show some parts of the movie... like a real trailer would!!!
Perhaps the word trailer was not the correct word to use. It is not a trailer of a movie that is going to come out, it is a spoof of the characters in an arcade RPG game. Not movie, game. I am guessing you expected to see some of the game shots or something. Sorry you were disappointed. I was just trying to introduce my upcoming game. I'll keep your review in mind so next time I will be more clear.
OH SNAP!!
I cant wait :D
me neather! lol I will be glad when episode 1 is released so I can begin laying the fround work for episode 2. Thanks for the encouragement and review.
Was that dragon hitting on me??
"I'll be waiting... For you." Well, I'll be heading for the hills baby...
Looks like fun, although the dragon and the spider need a LOT more detail. The guy looks pretty average too, so he too needs some work.
I hope you like it when it comes out and thanks for the review.
I'm not that eager for this to come out.
From the trailer, I'm not that excited for this game. The dragon looked like a moonbounce for kids at a fair, and the animation sucked. I didn't really understand why you called this a "comedy trailer." I hope your final product is a hell of a lot better than this.
Thanks for your opinion. Its a comedy trailer for two reasons, 1 anyone who plays RPG games knows starting out at 1st level there is always going to be spiders....spiders and orcs. It fun to me because here this big entrance with the dragon and the knight, and then some stupid spider walks by and steals all their thunder, but since you didn't like the dragon model I guess the humor was lost. Again thanks for your opinion, I have had play testers playing the game and all of them think its a great game. Maybe not the best in the world, but its still top notch according to them. So I hope you try it out and like it when it does.
good idea
i gave it a five because it appears to be a good idea but im not sure about the cartoon look u gave it
Thanks. The game is going to have a partially cartoonish look to it. I guess we will wait and see what happens when I release it
