Not done yet, preview video
Posted by DanielSo we’ve been working hard for this last week getting Lilly and Sasha ready for beta testing. As expected, the game is taking longer than expected. 
We’re getting closer every day but in the meantime I’ve made a quick preview video. Click on the video to watch it on youtube in higher resolution.
The colored light puzzles are my favorite. I’ve always wanted to do a puzzle like that but I wasn’t sure if it would work. The one in the video is the first one so it’s pretty easy.
I never ended up doing a preview of the new text system but you can see it in the video. It’s got a cool glowing effect behind the text that you might be able to see but it’s a lot clearer in the game. It also has the big text for yelling. The text system was inspired by Twilight Princess. It has really great text.
You’ll also notice the bottom bar that I stole from Aveyond. When I first played Lord of Twilight I knew I wanted to have that in my next game so thanks for that one Amanda. It also completes my goal of making the whole game playable with only one mouse button.
So I should get back to work now. I hope you enjoy the video.
Looks great! I really can’t wait
I especially liked, that it can be seen even from this short preview, how many things have been improved. And things we have asked for, like changing the leader. The menu looks cool, too! And the journal seems to be nice and detailed… and did I mention it already, that I can’t wait to play it?!
(I was keeping my fingers crossed, so that they will open the green chest, and I got to know what’s inside… but they didn’t and I was a bit disappointed, ’cause I’m so curious… how silly is that?
)
game looks great can hardly wait for it to come out love the new puzzles hope i will be able to do them
Counting down the days for this! This is my most sought after game for the year….
It might just be my cold medicine speaking, but OH MY GOD, I could cry. Not because it’s that bad, but the music!!! And the puzzles!!! And the adorable Grammy-Quest !!! And the fighting menu!!! And the journal!!! Sorry if someone is annoyed by my enthusiasm but that’s how I feel when I see something spectacular and simply brilliant.
Guys, you are really something… Seeing that even Elder from Blossomsoft and Amanda seem to recognise your work, you are at the top of indie-RPG developer. Bravissimo!
I just hope that you don’t lose your creativity and your spirit so that we can hope for more in the future! Love, Muesli.
PS: The music is wow. I hope to hear more of it in Lily and Sasha.
LOL very nice to see the bridge/vase sliding puzzle in reality… Didn’t someone in the Christmas Game suggest it as an option?
Looking really good guys! I can’t wait to see the whole thing!
only one word: amazing!
The atmosphere and mapping reminds me of retro RPGs such Lufia 2 and Final Fantasy V.
I especially love the battle system, it offers something fresh unlike current VX games.
Muesli is right, keep your creativity. I love the efforts with the features in L&S. You truly deserve your moment of glory.
Thanks for the great preview! The music is awesome and the graphics are really cool. I’m trying to be real patient,but it is getting harder and harder each day. Keep up the great work.( Muesli, your enthusiams isn’t annoying, it is catching!)
Love it! Really a big jump forward!! Love the menus and more specifically the detail involved in it, including the journal. And, if that’s the music that we can expect in the game, then wow will this be good! Keep up the good work and don’t worry…take your time and make it GREAT!!!!
Looks great, Daniel – can’t wait!
Excellent!
Best looking/sounding VX game I’ve seen. Graphics look great, looks like you did some nice custom work in there. (I kinda hate seeing the same basic worlds and characters in various games) Menus look fantastic, and the different battle system is refreshing. Looking forward for it!
I can see, though, that you are going to kill me with the new puzzles…
OMG!This looks great.I cannot belive it.It must be very hard to make this game.I can not wait for this game….EVERTHING THE BEST!
Amazing i am so excited for this game. oh i hope it doesn’t come out when final fantasy 13 does cause i won’t know which to play! eek!
Wowowowow, can’t wait to play
It looks so proffessional, and must be real fun 
But it’s just personal preference, it will not affect my attitude towards the game 
However, I don’t really like the new character looks… I prefer chibi style, or the RMXP ones, but these Mack-like big VX characters don’t tickle my fancy
As far as I’m concerned those sprites in L&S grabbed my attention in a positive way. Most other developers simply use the default sprites provided in the RM package. I think L&S is the product of real and solid efforts.
I have very good vibes about L&S.
