Here's a new free short game from the developer OriginalWij. It has some interesting gameplay. All lot of attention has been applied to the small details.

SpellBinder:


STORY

Almost a century ago, an ordinary young man was possessed by an evil spirit accidentally let loose. This spirit, the Visigoth, bound himself to this young man's body with powerful magic and spread fear and chaos across the land. He had taken over almost the entire world in a matter of weeks. All that remained was a stronghold held by the most powerful spellbinders. They knew that they could not beat the Visigoth, so they laid a trap for him. The trap worked. The spirit was separated from this unfortunate young man and banished to the ether. Fast forward to several years later. That young man was now an apprentice spellbinder. He had moved on with his life and had even learned to embrace magic. However, the Visigoth, before being banished, made a vow to return. He just had to bide his time and wait for the right opportunity. He would be back. This was disconcerting to the young spellbinder, because once bound to him, the Visigoth could not bind with any other human ...


WORLD

The world known only as Erf has a system of elementally based towers that provide a protective barrier between the human world and the spirit world. Harmless spirits, such as spiritflies, can pass through this barrier, but the barrier blocks any malevolent magic beings. The four main towers each reside on one of the four main continents. This, obviously, is a world filled with magic. The world government is known as the Magistrate and consists of the most powerful wizards, witches, sorcerers, mages, and spellbinders from all over the planet. Each continent is governed by a Proxy. This Proxy also is responsible for the barrier tower on his or her continent. When the barrier is up, the world is generally an eden. No war, no poverty, no illness. If the barrier were to fall ...


CHARACTERS

Seydoth
Class: Spellbinder
Our protagonist. He became a spellbinder when that evil spirit was removed from him, due to the enormous amount of magic energy that passed through him. He is a little impatient and fed up with being an apprentice. While rough on the outside, he has a heart of gold and rarely refuses a request for help. His manners may not be the best, but he dedicates himself completely to whatever endeavor he pursues and never gives up. If you need someone you can count on, this is the guy you call.

Tamsiss
Class: Sorcerine
In a word, serious. She is work first, work second, maybe play tomorrow. She is known mostly for her healing prowess, however do not underestimate her! She is an accomplished sorcerine that can match any sorcerer in battle. She lives with and takes care of her younger sister. She has strong family values and is extremely loyal. A must for any team.

Zheryn
Class: Necromage
Self-proclaimed famous hunter. Master of the darker magics. Comedian, or so he thinks. Loves to joke around, especially during awkward or inappropriate moments. Very well known amongst some of the seedier people and in some very strange places. A man who is always in search of a good time and a better drink. Overconfident almost to a fault, but it suits him well.

Lyithor
Class: Fairy Knight
Sergeant in a classified section of the military. When you want someone or something dead ... this is who you get to do it. Do not ever question her loyalty. Fairy Knights are forged of great honor and pride. She is the only knight ever to receive the Magistrate's Cross, the highest honor achievable for a soldier. She is also an expert in espionage and infiltration.

Please note: When using the keyboard commands to shop, assign skills etc. they correspond with the keys on your computer.

You need to press the F1 key and click on keyboard to see what that particular key is assigned to on your keyboard.

For example:



The X key to go the buy/summary screen on my computer is the A key. So to go to the buy/summary screen I would hit the A key.
To select an item I would hit the Enter key etc.

Thanks, I have spoken to Indinera about it. He said the game will be available to other sites after two weeks from its release.

Hi,

I think you should really include Demon Legacy as Benjetta said in this post. It's really a great game and I recommend it. If you can't find the download link, just tell me and I'll give you the one I uploaded with a patch fix for some minor issues for some equipments.


Also, include Zephyrus and the Kingdom of Heaven. The ending was a cliffhanger, making some space for a sequel, but still one of the best I played, no VX game can ever compare.
Again, if you need a download link, I'll be happy to upload it and give you the version with the removed bugged intro.

Last, the epic 6-episode blockbuster, The Way. The characters are quite well-made and the plot is definitely engrossing, easily one of the best RPGs ever made. Personally, I think this on a way different level than those Aveyond Games and its clones. If those games were king of RPG Maker VX/XP, then this is God in RPG Maker games. You really don't know what you're missing. They have the offical download links from their website, crestfallen studios

An extra list...

The only VX/XP games I really enjoyed:
(This is more like feedback than suggestions since all these games are posted already.)

Vagrant Hearts(I really enjoyed this game, this is one of the best VX/XP game I've played so far)

John Wizard's Games(Lily and Sasha and Dawn's Light)

Arvale(Would've been great if it weren't for the slow walking speed)

Tales of the Drunken Paladin(Would've been on the top of my to-play list if it weren't for the stupid walking speed.)

Laxius Force(My excitement was short-lived, the battles became monotonous and grueling, the game itself made me quit halfway, but maybe I'll replay this someday.)

Alpha Kimori(Absolutely great! I just can't wait for the sequel!)

Ella's Hope(Haven't finished yet but it's quite enjoyable. I will finish the game later after beating the others.)

Maybe I'm missing out a few... I can't seem to rember... Oh well.

Upcoming VX/X games that have some potential:

Valkyrie: Escallon Rising - The artwork is absolutely beatiful! I just hope the game itself would be as great as its artwork. The graphics in this game are comparable to that of PS3 games.

Linus - I want more! More! More! The demo was fantastic, and I can't wait to see what happens to Linus Millhaven!
There were 2 more projects that were also interesting but I forgot the titles.. Just check the RPGMakervx.net forums.

P.S. Will suggest more games after I'm done playing with a few...

Cheers!
