A downloadable game

Emblem Craft is a strategy RPG created in SRPG Studio that blends elements of Minecraft and strategy role-playing. In this game you'll explore a map filled with enemies to fight and resources to gather, and with those resources, you will build houses and shops that increase the size of your army and the quality of items you can work with. There are plenty of surprises on the map, if you can find them and take advantage of them. Can you build enough houses to earn a castle for your kingdom? Explore, Exploit, Excavate and Exterminate in this experiment in strategy game design!

UPDATE: I have uploaded version 1.1. In this new version, some actions would cause you to lose your turn even though nothing happened; this has been fixed and you will be refunded your turn if nothing happens. Also, houses can be used to change the class of an existing unit; however, this costs the unit's levels. Also, learning skills now costs levels instead of gold.

UPDATE: Added version 1.2. This version adds difficulty levels. Basically the higher the level, the more buildings required to be built, meaning you'll have to explore more of the map to finish.

Created for the "Don't make Fire Emblem" contest by Markyjoe1990.

Your project looks mighty interesting, dude! Going to try it just now, but it already seems super cool. Could I get the plugin list, out of curiosity, or nah? Because some of that stuff seems super cool to do on other projects

Commenting back, after I tried it. Game seems pretty good, tried about 20-30 minutes of it, while I was doing other things. More than reminiscent of Minecraft, it seems more like Age of Empires to me, or civ, but still, pretty fun! Maybe you could go for a more minecraft feel, if you added some of the Roguelike plugins to randomize maps, and changed the FOW to totally black. 

Still, if you wanna keep on this route, this game could make a actually pretty good standalone game, if you add more maps, and give all of them a small objective. It can be pretty good, as it's already amazing!

Not a judge, but in my heart it won the "Don't make fire emblem" jam

Thanks for your interest. I'll list off the plugins used as there weren't a huge number of them. They are:

  • Global Unit Events by Markyjoe1990
  • List Selection Event Commands by Markyjoe1990
  • Name Entry by Markyjoe1990
  • Held Weapon Guard by Lady Rena
  • Fog of War by Goinza and Lady Rena
  • GBA Battle Formula by Goinza
  • RNG Settings by Goinza (I think)
  • Diseases by piketrcechillas
  • Stacked Status by piketrcechillas
  • GBA Animation Style by Fluffy
  • 2 Line Skill Display by Fluffy
  • Durability Display by Fluffy

And I made a few plugins myself to mess with stuff that I needed messing with.
