Current work is being dedicated to ironing out problematic bugs in several events. Death has been acting erratic, main character graphic issues being present focus.

Most likely going to resume map and story development once fixed.

The project continues, slowly. I've finished the battle tutorial, and I hope to get to work on more parts of the introduction of the game as time goes on. The most recent concept art me and Brooke have worked on is the Red Knight battler, the person who introduces you to combat.

I've also made a new song for the game, called Whispering Realm. I'm going to try my hand at composing the area themes of the game later on as well.

The most important thing of note is I'm planning on making a playable preview of the game sometime soon, which will likely be just the Intro as a sort of teaser to what the full game will be like later. I've not yet made this an official thing, but once I've made my mind up, I'll let you all know. Playtest Register is currently down and will not likely be brought back up, as the amount of spam was rather insulting.

To Do List:

• Create Four Horsemen Encounter
• Create unique monsters for Death's Realm
• Develop the rest of the Tutorial and Introduction
• Revamp Death Boss Battle
• Redesign Hanaru Village
• Redesign South Ancient Hills
• Redesign Ancient Forest

I will be working on my game Shattered Realms: Mortal Tale over at Twitch.tv, and I'm hoping to get a lot done today. Hope to see you there!

• Fix path finding for Iskar in North Ancient Hills 1
• Make Town Shops and NPCs for Pito Village

Hello, I am AoDLegacy, the head and arguably only developer of Shattered Realms: Mortal Tale, as well as the developer of AwaKen: Descent Into Slumber, though at the moment it is suspended. I'm also the original writer for a game concept called Far East, and once upon a time I made the first game I ever made, Demi Dawn, which needless to say was garbage looking back. The sheer thrill of creation probably prevented me from realizing how bad it was. But MAN have I gone a long way since then.

I figured it was about time I spent more time here and made a blog, talking about my experiences as a game dev. Let's start with the basics I guess. I started AoD Entertainment, which is more properly referred to as Axis of Destruction, but ignoring that, I started Axis of Destruction back around 2011, as near as I can tell. Aug. 19, 2011, the Axis of Destruction channel was launched, back then when you actually had cool YouTube backgrounds instead of... bleeh, white. I mainly made Neverwinter Nights videos, and later when I found a free screencapture demo, started recording Minecraft. A few summers back, I found the RPG Maker XP engine, and I began making worlds, just like I used to when I started the channel.

Now, I'm working on Shattered Realms: Mortal Tale, probably my best game I have built yet, and still nowhere near done. Working alongside my collaborator and girlfriend BrookeKohaku21 on DeviantArt, I'm aiming to make my first game as best as I can, and I'm glad you stopped by to check my project out.

Since the start of AoD, I have constantly aimed to expand my horizons, and since 2011, I have gained 21 subscribers. ...Which is honestly sad, considering last August was my channel's fifth birthday... but, in a more heartwarming light, I have 67 followers on Twitter, 29 followers for my G+ page, 74 followers on AwaKen: DiS's page, and 11 followers on the current project's page, and 46 followers on DeviantArt. I've expanded from writing novels, to making music and art, to now a fantasy RPG named Shattered Realms: Mortal Tale. It's been an awesome road, and I hope you will join me as I continue working toward the completion of Shattered Realms: Mortal Tale, and all of my future games to come.
