So we have been working on a story board and we decided to shorten the story significantly due to the time limit.. We have finally decided on a name for the game though "Revelation" is the games official name!! We decided to make it only two endings based on the players answers upon the "Revelation" the Main character will go through once all of the desired events have played out. We have Character sketches for the Parents and the older brother as well as possible female counter part to Knox. Story is probably one of the hardest things we had to come up with besides figuring out how to work the program. With the story you have to have it COMPLETELY thought out beginning middle end as well as how they characters end up there. Unless you're willing to spend a few years designing the game itself.  Below is my Partner working on a Google document with myself on the story board

So we are working more on the story board aspect at this time trying to find out what choices you are going to make what music will be playing etc. The hard part is we know the endings...but don't quite know how to reach them... we decided to do only one story line because of shrinking time. One of the problems we have with RPG maker 2003 is that it is very limited on graphics everything. If we import a tile set we have to go through and edit what you can walk through or behind or what you cant walk on. As well as having to lower the color scheme. I found a few decent looking tile sets to use they were pretty decent but when I converted it to fit the colors for the program it just looked bad so we are trying to find an alternative to the program by experimenting with what will give us what options. If you know any free program with few limitations let me know :D it would be a great help :3 (above is the uniform inspirations for the main )
