Reaching For The Stars (and missing!)


The present build of ALEX is probably kind of a hot mess. I'm happy with the level of polish I achieved on the content that is there and the aesthetics and the writing, I think it's a good slice of what I'm going for, but it's no where near finished so I don't expect it to win any prizes (only the very beginning of the tech tree is working and even then only kind of, it's possible and in fact way too easy to run out of Ore if you don't build your starting buildings in the exact right order which you'd need to be either me or psychic to know, stealing doesn't presently work right, under a quarter of the Nova world/planet map is set up, and the second two thirds of the story just aren't there, one you've cleared all five of the bunkers in the first area in Chapter 2 you've basically done all the gameplay there is). 

Note: this throws a one-time missing file error ("Background 01") when you load it but it is playable after that and I haven't noticed any other missing. Generally speaking, this is a hot mess that's barely been playtested in its current iteration so please expect all kinds of non-critical things to be  broken!

I don't own RPG Maker MZ and can't see being able to afford it at any point in the foreseeable future, so if you like this project and it's something you'd like to see finished, tell me now! Your enthusiasm might motivate me to try to finish this game in the week or so I have left with the Jam trial version of RPG Maker MZ! So let me know if you are stoked on this project and you raise the chances of this being finished while I still have access to the MZ Engine from impossible to unlikely!   

P.S. I legally own and have the rights to use commerically all of the audio and graphical assets and plugins included in ALEX: RTP. I need to compile a list of credits and it is a high priority after I actually finish this game, if and when I finish this game, and/or if this gets any attention or traction at all!
