Glacia: Completed Chapter One v2.2, Glacia is an old-school JRPG style game with an epic story. Options

[captainregal]

Hey there! Glacia is a project that has been in development for more than 3 years now. We have released the final version of Chapter One, and we are posting this here to draw more attention to it. If you have not previously installed the RPG Maker VX RTP (Or don't know what that is), download the Glacia: Chapter One v2.2 RTP Included version of the game below. If you download the regular version, you will also have to download and install the RPG Maker VX RTP from the RTP Standalone link below.

Glacia is a retro/old-school JRPG style game following an epic tale of kingdoms, magic, and betrayal. This is the first of five chapters.

Glacia was initially conceived and developed by CaptainRegal in September of 2008. Since then, several people have assisted with parts of Glacia's design, and the game is currently being developed by CaptainRegal and DarkBox.

We've estimated Chapter One to provide between 5 and 7 hours of game play, and we'll be keeping it around this same amount of game play for every chapter that we release hereafter.

Rain Garshon, the naive young prince of Glacia, awakens to find his wife strangely absent from their bed. Unbeknownst to him, this marks the beginning of nation-shaking treachery that will turn his once blessed life to utter ruin in a single night.

This perpetrator of this betrayal, none other than his very own wife Lailah Garshon, has made it impossible for Rain to return to his kingdom. Now, Rain must travel the world of Elesca searching for proof of his lineage.

However, what he finds is something sinister waiting in his family tree. Before Rain can take back Glacia's throne, he must first discover if it was ever his to begin with.

Downloading now, I look forward to checking it out!

Edit- I had an issue with saving, it gave me an error something about not being able to find a temp save something, closed out, and didn't save. I will play again tomorrow and screenshot the error if nobody else posts. Otherwise, I enjoyed the little bit I managed to get into tonight.

Ohhhh boy. We knew there would be a massive error after we release. Great catch, thanks. We'll see if we can fix it. Figured it out unfortunately, we forgot to include the "Save" folder in the release. This is causing the error. Adding that folder in will fix the error, and it should be done for you as soon as it errors out.
