Harumi and her design team are preparing to release the first map for the TW RPG system and are offering a special promotion! The first map features a large walled city in which players may submit their own houses and shop designs much like 'twcity' or 'twtown'.

The Memoria Project will be bringing more maps and special events to us over the coming months as part of a role-playing game that is being built for use in TW. During this initial phase of the project they will be making a campaigning system and several different maps for extended use.

By the end of the project the game will be automated to the point that owners of houses will be able to reap ingame benefits such as recovered health and gold pieces for selling wares. If you would like to get in on this special deal, then please visit: http://harumi.twzone.net for further information.

Is this just TWCity, but more technical? (I don't like reading news)

[Harumi <ER>]

not really, go check out http://harumi.twzone.net for info on the availabilities.

this is pretty much a chance at a free house or shop in the rpg world before you have to pay with them using ingame gold. (and trust me, they'll be expensive)

This is the first map of a couple dozen. So early investment will definitely pay off in the long run =)

and.... people doubted me some people view this game as a rpg.

Little weird SubSpace is becoming RPG in there, I mean it wasnt ment to be RPG and so I think the controls and screen isnt fit for RPG's, but ill make a house and see wat happns. Maybe its nice, maybe not

[Ara]

Plint, there are several zones that try to copy an RPG system.

I don't know... the specifics of the game engine, physics and what have you, don't necessarily lend themselves well to an RPG environment. Then again, I've played quite a few top-down RPGs, and with the size of the map, you can put together quite an expansive space for people to check out. And you can simulate the effect of many different worlds simply by linking various arenas under the heading of a single event.

I think it's a cool idea, and I'm interested to see how it turns out.

[NaiLed]

Yeah, I think it's a cool idea too. Not sure about the land names though; they seem a little... cheesy

[Kyace]

What would you suggest for names, Nailed?

[NaiLed]

Knew you were going to ask me that

I've been trying to think of a good name for the last 5 mins. I guess it's harder to come up with good names than I thought.

RPGs will make this addicting game even more addicting.

I Like.

[duel pasta]

sounds cool

This is really cool, i already sended my house to harumi and it got approved I'm cool, i think this will be fun and that we will enjoy it, but I have a question. Is this an arena that has to be hosted or is it an automated event like ?go riot in extreme games and ?go elim Trench Wars

[Kyace]

jappeuuuh, the final plan is an arena that will run by itself with hosted events to add flavor. The hosted events will be totally different kind of thing than most of the hosting events seen now. Instead of playing in a generic ship just like everyone else, you will be able to use your personal char in the events. While your the way you custimize your char will affect how you play the hosted events, somethings in your char will be affected by the special hosted events (among other things). Such as the spells a wizard has going into an event may be a diciding factor in a game, or the only way to get a certain spell is to win it in an event.
