Month: May 2020

The Accursed Crown of the Giant King is an old school role-playing game, single player, party based. It will be released in 2020 for Windows, Mac, and iOS. ACotGK is by Merry Prankster Games, and you can get more information at https://prankster.com/acotgk.

I’ve just finished up the content for Chapter 2. Yay! One of the last things I put together was the map. Here is the un-adorned map (no locations):

Next up I’m going to work on restoring iOS and Mac builds, which haven’t been working for awhile. I’ll do the testing of Chapter 2 on the phone.

One of the new features of Accursed Crown of the Giant King, vs. its predecessor Temple of the Abyssal Winds, is the “People Journal”. Here you can view everyone you’ve talked to, with all of their dialogue and their last location.

Honestly it’s a little primitive at this point, but definitely helpful. Feature improvements could include associating people with a related quest, grouping people by chapter and location. Perhaps even work it in with the world map. It will probably live as-is until release, and maybe then I’ll work on improvements. Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good, as they say!

The party hunts for a missing ranger. In this video, they defeat the ogre who has slain the ranger, and find the corpse of the unfortunate scout.

Look for another video in two weeks. Perhaps I will be done with chapter 2 and on to chapter 3 at that point!

Not much to report this week; just working on filling in random quests for chapter 2. Here’s a screenshot of my test party battling an ogre:
