Chapter 3 - Testing STAR FALL

"Choose your class".

-weak mage-

-Basic knight-

-Commoner-

Ash chose weak mage, already knowing what the VFX for the spell looks like he wanted to see them in person.

"Transporting Data module (0.0.01)"

*Complete.

"Teleporting to Central Odin.

.. Close your eyes".

Ash listens to the voice.

Closing his eyes

Opening his eyes, he sees Central Odin from the eyes of a man, not any man a mage, he can now see a blue aura that coats the world around him,

"Open stats". He speaks

Fuzz sounds linger for a few seconds and a purple screen appears in front of him;

[Player name: test_player 1

Level: 1

Health: (20/20)

Combat power (250)

Overall power (375)

Engraved branch(equip),

Skill Attributes: 0

Stats:]

"Seems to be some minor bugs but that's okay, I assume it's related to the crafting system since that's the only obvious answer".

After looking at the stats only a few errors he noticed, but they were an easy fix so he ignored them.

He looked around and finally found his first NPC.

"Hello, warrior please help me".

An old man begs seemingly missing something an Oldman should always have.

"Okay, what do you need help with?"

Ash questions even though he already knows the simple answer.

"Help me find my cane, I'm struggling to walk here".

"Of course"!

A yellow screen pops up in front of Ash;

Quest:

Level: beginner

Threat level: none

Goal: find the old man's cane!

Reward: 10exp, 5 gold and 10+ favour(not yet implemented)

Failure: old man dislikes you and no quest reward

Time limit: infinite.

"Time to go".

Since the cane spawned randomly within a 25-meter radius of the Oldman, Ash sprinted around looking for it.

He found some floating houses which were mistakes.

After a whole 10 minutes, he found the cane.

Out of breath, he hands the old man his cane.

"Thanks, young man, there's your reward".

Rewards received: gold and exp.

-Level 1 10/0-

"Everything seems right, just need to make sure spells aren't broken"

He equips his branch and shoots a fireball at a tree

-20 mana

A fireball equal to the size of a baseball conjured in front of his wand.

The engraved wand glowed blue.

After whipping his hand the fire hurled towards the tree.

"Perfect thank the lord!"

He tested healing on a young girl who was injured, which was another side quest.

After going around and helping the villagers out he chose it was time to test the return spell.

It worked perfectly, once he adds inns for players, they'll return to the inn instead of the centre.

"Looking good I just need to test crafting;

Crafting level (1)

Resources: 0

Craftable items: wizard hat(Basic), wizard robe(Basic), wizard staff(Basic)

Crafted items: 0

[Craft item]

It was working splendidly.

He chooses to logout.

Deciding to go downstairs, he grabs his bottles.

"Hey, mom". He says to an older women.

"Heyy Ashy, you doing alright you've been locked up in your room all week, is everything good?"

His mother worrying for her child asks if he's alright, she looks at him with slight guilt but quickly hides it.

"I'm good mom, just focusing on stuff".

He answers.

He opens the backdoor and puts the plastic bottles in the recycling bin.

After going toilet and cleaning some dishes he goes to eat something,

While doing this he's thinking about plans.

After eating he goes for a short walk around his local park.

He returned home, his mother had gone work.

Returning to his room, he gets back to work.

"Okay time to get the developers working!" he spoke with enthusiasm.

Going to the development tab, he quickly writes to the developers about what Inn system he wants.

Currently they'll only need to hold 10-100 people since he wants to have a closed beta before a full release.

"Id prefer them to be smaller for now, I got make sure its got a good blueprint for future improvements."

-3000 money

Ash purchased the modules for the Inns, he made sure he could renovate and design the inside and outside of them.

Inns will be the first intractable building everything he had placed down so far had been decoration.

Some of the Inns looked like Tudor housing some more medieval fantasy, like Skyrim.

"It's fun"!

Ash moves his fingers dotting around the screen, finishing the last Inn.

He completed the task.

Placing them in there designated areas, he glances through the region spotting anything odd, all the things he found odd he fixed.

Once that was done, he discussed with the developers on how his item and level system should work.

Head developer: 'So you want the monsters to give exp plus quests?'

Ash: 'yep!, I understand there needs to be a balance so why don't we have quest give major exp while the monsters exp is based upon level,

so if a low level, lets say a level 10 kills a level 20 mob they'll be given 20,000,

But if they defeat that monster with a group it'll be divided equally.

So a multiplier of 1000x every 10 levels,

Tracking of damage and

Group creation.

For items I'll let you discus.'

Developer 2: 'seems doable, for items, only boss monsters should drop.

We could create a resource gathering system, we have most the things implanted thanks to the Inn package.'

Head developer: 'True we don't like being lazy or doing half job.

Do you agree with this ash'?

"Yes!"

Ash Has agreed with them it took them around 4 days to make.

Days

1-2

During this they added an item drop feature to basic mobs so they can give gold and exp based on the monsters level.

Having completed this they created some magical items based on Ash's request.

Days

2.5-3

Having tested and bug fixed the resource system was completed.

"Time to test, Hopefully it's working correctly".

Ash presses test game once more.

He joins the game slightly quicker.

Booting…

"Loading,,, (data module: 0.0.01)

*Complete.

"Teleporting to Central Odin.."

Now in a more lively environment Ash sprints to the closest Inn.

He saw a signpost, Spooky Inn.

It was built from wood and outlined with some stone.

To the left, there is a working Well where players can collect water.

The right seemed empty for now.

Seeing it at eye view he is struck with awe for a second.

Shaking his head he knocks;

After he knocked a middle-aged man answered.

"Welcome young warrior, come relax."

He followed the man in.

What he saw;

A layout of small rectangular tables with equally assorted amounts of chairs.

There were some NPCs, but they seemed robotic.

Some small plants on the windowsill

He gave a wary smile, but he knows in the future there'd be more life-like NPCs.

Going to the counter where the man was he says;

"Can I have a room please".

"Certainly, young warrior!, that'll be 50 gold coins for a month, 30 for the week and 5 for the day"

"After this I need to set the actual cost for Inns". Ash mutters

"The month, please"! Ash requests.

"Certainly, just pass me the Coin and I shall give you the key".

"Stats". Ash commands.

Fzzz* zz*

A fuzzy sound rings and a purple menu pops up.

Gold: 300

He pressed the gold coin icon and a small brown menu popped up;

[ Give/drop ]

He chose give and he selected his amount.

Ding*

(Gold transfer complete)

"Thank you, there's your key". The man passes Ash the key.

Ash walked up a small staircase and reached his room.

It was simple Like he intended.

"Good, the beds in a good place the chest for player storage too, nice and spacious".

He lays on the bed to test its comfort, he setted the comfort level to 3/10 since this was a town of beginnings.

He slept.
