Rising Legends – Update
Well, it’s been quite a while since the last update to Rising Legends and I know that it seems like we are behind schedule. However, I’ve actually decided that we are right ON schedule, considering how far along the new layout is coming. Last time I posted links to the tentative layout and in the end I decided that it wasn’t the direction that I really wanted to go. Instead, I have decided to post a screenshot of the new improved layout that will hopefully be pushed out sometime this week in “test” mode.
The new layout incorporates a lot of ideas and suggestions put forth by a everyone who tested the game. Things like constantly being able to view your stats, a not so ugly layout, images for items and a much better way of organizing things. Currently only the main page is completed. Next up is the fight page, which I have a few idea’s for already.
Hopefully once that is done I can get to the infirmary/tavern pages and then I will be pushing the new layout for testing. All your old characters will be accessible in the new layout, but we way of a slight hack-around. You will need to log in to boba.feethavebeen.com before navigating to the new layout. Once there, anything you do will also be reflected in the current alpha.
Update: Currently you are able to access the main page (equip/unequip/use) as well as the fight and tavern pages. The database did get a slight overhaul, although it will not affect current users. The alterations made to the database is what is actually slowing down this update. The shop will hopefully be added tonight allowing players to do everything they could in the current version.
Great work mate. Also useful might be a ‘sleep’ option in the Tavern. For a price, you can heal 100% of your wounds. Otherwise I have to spend a fortune on potions. You could also implement something like what wordpress has (and other sites/software) where you can drag HTML elements around (I think its javascript? that does it)…. In this way, you can drag your dagger to your hand, drag boots to feet, etc. This is more aesthetics than anything else, and would probably involve more coding such as ensuring boots don’t go on heads or hands, etc. I’d really like to try the test version. And you should release it under GPLv3 =)
have fun
I like it. I especially like that you’re doing a MUCH better job melding the functionality and aesthetics of a site. Because I’m not beyond admitting I get a little superficial around sites
