I haven't finished the other Lp yet (will I ever finish it?) but I decided to do a short LP on another game.
Widenyo (or something like that)
I already mentioned the game Widenyo in another thread.
A NON-PORN game by Alicesoft. It recently got translated.
To play it you need the Alicesoft 2010 pack, which includes Rance 02.
I decided to make a short LP to show you the gameplay.
The plot is almost nonexistant, according to the intro, in this nation there are several walking castle's that are used for war. The king of one of the smaller castles, castle Mamatoto, has always tried to avoid fighting by running away. But after so many wars he has decided to find a certain something in a mysterious cave (in order to bring world peace). And there is where we start.
The game has only one autosave (so you are playing Ironman), I delete the previous data and start again.
Let's start....
…...
This is prince Nanus, a genious tactician.
And this is the king.
(I will be skipping some chatter)
Now the princess appears, Nanus's twin sister.
We inform her that the Hero summoning machine is complete.
Other characters appear...
I'm not sure who this guy is supposed to be. In the Rance series there is a guy called like him, Rick Addison. They use the same sword, look similar..., but this one seems to be native to this world, and you can summon another Rick Addison, so I guess this is an alternate version of him. He is one of our best fighters.
(I will talk about the others later).
But let's start with the summoning...
We activate the machine ''Ideyon'' ...
After the blue flash of light disipates...
A small girl appears... (this first summon is a fixed one).
(I will skip irrelevant chatter)
Her name is Arietta, and apparently she was in an adventure with her friends or something.
We explain her that we have summoned her because we need heroes to get an item to bring world peace (true story), and that when she is unsummoned she will go back to the same point in space and time. She agrees to help us (like everyone else).
Let's start playing!
This is the dungeon map.
Enemies come from the right, when they reached the casltle we lose 1 of 5 HP, we reach 0: Game Over.
We counter them with our heroes. We click on UNITS.
We deploy our bros.
The guy on the top has ranged attacks (Stolin).
The first girl with read hair (Myra) attacks with a sword, the next is Rick, our best fighter.
Next one is princess Avui, a caster. Then we have a couple of old guys (the fat one is awfull) and finally Arietta who has very high DEF.
(The only character I knew was Rick).
Here you can see what each atribute does...
….
We start advancing.
When attacking we get a 2D animation (we can turn it off)
Every turn we can move and attack. Sometimes we trigger a special move: Critical strike, a second attack, AoE or we can relocate the enemy.
Enemies respawn constantly.
After dealing some pain we get XP.
Experience goes to a common pool and we can assign it from the LVL screen (we can do that with deployed units).
With Exp we can also buy ''KIDS''. These kids advance 3 tiles every turn and by expending more points in stamina they can last 1-4 attacks.
We buy a treasure collecting kid and we send him to get the pile of gems (summon ore).
We make sure to keep enemies away from him.
When the kid gets the ore we go to the summon screen...
This time we get a completly random character.
Who will we get??
USED GOODS!!
...err I mean Kouhime. (Is nice to get a known character in the first attempt in this LP).
After some killer dango jokes we recruit her. (Her dango is treated as a weapon in Rance Quest LOL).
Here she has a short range attack...with her dango.
We level her to Lvl 5 (everyone starts at 1)
We deploy her and another kid to pick the treasure...
So far our enemies have been the galmonsters Kyankyan and some kind of robots (they have a chance to drop summon ore).
….
The kid gets us a resistance potion...
This is the item screen. We can aply the potion to a undeployed character to permanently boost their RES (after this the potion dissapears). Other items are put into each chacters inventory. Inventory space is limited, but some items can be shrunk for a fee.
Now I will advance a level. The castle can move by pressing advance. We advance 1 tile.
New and more powerfull enemies appear. We also get a Mercenary.
Her name is Raisen and has a decently powerfull melee attack.
This is a new area, that hole can open a portal to special levels.
But first we have to deal with some problems. We have overall low health.
Some strong wind in the cave drops everyone's health each turn, that couple to enemies mean that our bros will be defeated. When defeated or when you make them retreat they go back to the castle. After this they start a KOOL-down until you can deploy them again. Considering that enemies respawn all the time you have to be clever and keep a group of bros around to stop the enemies.
We make everyone retreat and use Raisen and the fat guy to block the enemies.
The rest of our bros return in time.
We also desice to open the portal...
We will need to drop 4 bros inside.
But that can put us in danger since whatever happens on the other side, when our bros return they
will enter another kooldown, so our castle will be in danger. First we will level a bit.
….
Once we level a bit and equip items we prepare a group to get into the portal...
We have reached our maximum Character Cost.
Each character has a set cost, wich increases with their level. For every map level we advance we have a MAX of 25 CC (the amount of CC we can field). Right now it's 50. Wich means we can grind much. The higher level bros you field the fewer they will be. (And you usually need numbers to keep the enmies to reach the castle).
After we send 4 bros to the portal we appear in this battle. We have to defeat them all.
3 Hanniwa (weak but inmune to magic), 2 PixieFOX (fast), 2 ranged ''Magisco'' girls and a Yankee.
Yes, the Alicesoft analogue of Goblins are a caricature of KWAs.
We easily win. Our reward is a prisoner.
Some kind of lizard guy who joins our ranks. His name is Hiro, and even if he is slow he is strong and usefull.
We level him and field him with some bros. And we advance to level 3.
Another portal and more Summon ore!
(The red thing is an enemy, the ''piston machine'', quite strong)
When our planewalker team is back on duty we will send another kid.
…..
Even if you plan things well you can still be screwed.
The kid we sent was ambushed by undead, they can attack in the same turn they spawn.
If your kid is defeated you will have to send another one ASAP, since ores, treasures, etc. have a counter.
But at last we get the ore and we summon another hero!
Uesugi Kenshin!!
We explain her the situation.
My first 2 random summons in this LP are Rance characters. I like where this is going
