Game Project Preview: Witch Hunt

This is a short introduction to the game I’m currently working on. Its name is Witch Hunt and it is made with RPG Maker MV.

The Story

You are Hugo, a man in his twenties who lives in a village called Greenhill. Hugo leads a peaceful life as a local farmer. However, worrisome incidents started to occur a few days ago. Supplies and even pets of the villagers went missing. No one takes the incidents seriously until the day Hugo is summoned to the mayor of Greenhill. Five villagers vanished without a trace. And you are given the task to investigate their disappearance.

Current Status

The world of Witch Hunt will consist of three main areas: the village, the forest and the dungeon. The dungeon will be separated into several wings, so the player must visit it several times. Above in the screenshot section there is one screenshot of a dungeon, but this will not be the main dungeon of the game. So far I’ve finished the maps for the village and the forest area. Currently I’m working on the battle system. I want to add some more skills that have synergetic effects. Furthermore I try to learn more about action sequences and add them wherever I can. Another upcoming task on my list is designing more enemies. I found developing sophisticated enemies can be quite time consuming. I’ll post an update on this website and on Twitter and Facebook as soon as I made enough progress that is worth sharing. I’d also highly appreciate any feedback.
