Phantom Shadows v0.28.6
(Last updated 23 April 2018)

Introduction

Welcome to the collaboration page of Phantom Shadows, an epic fantasy action RPG currently under development by solvedStudio. The game tells the story of a kingdom under attack by monsters, which overpowered the king's army and the royal knights. You play as a Phantom Shadow, a dark entity that appeared suddenly and posseses powers beyond normal humans. There are three types of character you can play as: a mage, an elf, and a knight. Each class has distinct advantages and disadvantages. The goal of the game is to defeat monsters, get experience, skills, & items, and complete quests.

• Improve summoned creature stats or behavior so they are more useful
  

• Create special attack for the mage
  
• Decide on defensive manoeuvres, script and animate them
  

• Write the storyline for “The Traveller” quest
  
• Script “The Traveller” quest progress and rewards
  
• Add more opportunities to make choices
  
• Have quests slowly reveal the truth behind the monster attacks
  

• Come up with more unique items, with different methods of obtaining them
  

• Script boss spawning and AI
  
• Create more boss animations
  
• Find a way to reduce lag caused by monsters (fewer monsters, more difficult to beat?)

I'll definitely do that in a week or two when we're releasing the game beta
About completing the game… solved suggested adding a boss monster, but other than that, what else do you think we still need?

• Items dropped when killing a monster on the bridge sometimes drop towards the bottom of the screen

Or we could try to prioritise the ground detection. => If we're touching the ground there's no need to go further down
