Welcome to Taiga Voyage, AKA the Mori Story Reboot Demo.

Foreword

This is the Newgrounds version of my game demo. The Itch.io version is the original intended version of the demo, but this one is virtually the same, aside from some bonus Newgrounds exclusive items and stuff. This demo is not being updated anywhere, sorry! It's really meant to be a "I made something and I might as well post it somewhere instead of let it sit within my hard drive forever" like most game projects.

This is all there is for this project, and I'm not currently planning to expand this specific game into a full game, but might make something similar in the future.

Introduction

This is a bit of a project I've been working on as sort of a remake of my original Mori Story demo from a little while back. The original demo (as seen on my itch.io) used "GB Studio" as it's main engine, but I wanted to see what I could do with RPG Maker as the main engine in the reboot project, and see how far I could take it. I went from a Gameboy inspired style to a sort of Gameboy color/NES inspired style by giving the world more color and form.

This demo is similar to the original in content, as it recreates the original first quest, but there's also quite a bit of new content during and after the first quest too, as well as another playable character.

Please bear in mind that this demo is sort of a prototype of a fuller game I plan to make, which will likely be much different from beginning to end, so there's going to be a couple default RPG Maker assets present here (like the title screen for example). All of the overworld, character, monster, and cutscene graphics are original, however. Same goes for the music of the game.

About the Game

You are Moridachi Taiga, a cat boy who decided to help his old friend Frank find his necklace. The story brings you through the first island of the world, as you search for this necklace, fight different monsters, meet new friends, and more.

Uncover the mysteries of the past, and discover the strange group trying to obtain the necklace for themselves.

A note

Like the previous gameboy demo, this is a sort of prototype for a larger idea. This specific piece of software is probably not going to be getting any updates, unless someone points out something game breaking (Since I've never exported an RPG Maker MV project as a web file before, I don't know if there's anything I missed in particular).
