Grand Opening.

Although "Grand" may be a bit kind in describing the opening of this humble blog, it will serve for now. Here, at KytoSoft Studios I shall share with you bits and pieces of my project: a homebrew 2D RPG for the PC. Screenshots, videos (maybe), artwork, music, and eventually links to download and play this culmination of free time and imagination.

At present I am working on a demo that covers the first of 35 chapters in this somewhat lengthy tale of swords, demons, and other fanciful creatures that shall (when this project is completed) be the likes of which you haven't seen before, or at least not in a very long time. The demo will offer at least an hour (maybe two) of game play as well as a sizable area to explore and enjoy.

In this story I'm attempting to achieve a level of detail that would stomp around in the shadow of Tolkien's level of detail for his own universe. I'd even dare to say rival that level of dedication and imagination, but only time will tell on that. And I'd hate to wave the flag of arrogance so early on in your visit. Of anything, I can only assure you that it will be fun, it will be an homage to the old school 2D RPG's of old, and you will enjoy it.

At present the only one working on this project is I, Paul Walker. Although with time, hopefully there are those who would lend a helping hand with art, music, or other aesthetic and artistic ventures. I only admit to an affinity with writing and designing games. But enough of that! You're likely wishing I'd shut up and get to the point about the game, aren't you?

Very well, the game will take place over 35 chapters as I've said before. And, I will either release the game in "Episodes" of a handful of chapters, or I shall release the entire project as one large lump of RPG goodness. I shall include a large array of features and locations to visit and explore, as well as tasks that either pertain to the main storyline or just let you dive a bit deeper into the universe I've created.

Until then, please comment with any questions or comments. I shall brew up some screenshots and a premise to share with you, as well as some info and art about my characters.

Thank you for reading.
