You need to add a little bit more info. Perhaps elaborate on the backstory?

I'm still writing the storyline.
So the story begin (as always) with a trivial event.
But i didn't make a main quest for now.

Looks very intresting ; )

I've updated screenshot.
As you can see on screenshot i use Nasrudin and xXmorpheusXx's doodads

Thumbs up!

I've added charac info with background story and even some useless things as their height and weight...
there is more character than that but i didn't finished yet

Edit:Ouch!It was really late when i've made those description.My english teacher would kill herself if she see my grammar mistake.

Demo released look at first post link,feedback needed
And a bunsh of screenshot

I'll post a comment if my modem will decide that 6 mb aren't too much... -_-'


Judging from the screenshots:

- Can I suggest you some doodads scaling? Because maybe it won't be noticed during the missions, but in the cutscenes it's weird to see candles\bottles\closets almost as tall as a child.
- It seems like you cut the villagers' heads and put the animal heads on them via attachments... but then the portraits look headless. For a singleplayer map you can afford those those 60-100 kb for geomerge.
- The adult panda is nice, I don't like too much the use of the mountain king for the child. Not for the animations, it's the body shape that is too sharp. Why don't you just use the fire panda instead?

Your right i'll fix some of them but proportion isn't always right in a game,A peasant is almost as big as a farm in war3.

I's more than 100 kb,I want a large diversity so i'll just fix that issue by making a black portrait as the female villager.[/quote]

The adult panda is just a slight edit of the evilwart dragon's model (added the pony tail and modified face shape).
About the child i didn't use the Fire panda because he's too big and the mk shape look more like a child than the pandaren shape.

I have played the demo, and it is totally awesome O.o

I went as far as the first boss encounter now. It's been fun so far, there's much room for improvements, but I can see it's getting a nice campaign.

The terrain overall is good enough, a little flat, but I guess that's for gameplay reasons.

- Some little errors in the doodads placement on the houses, but nothing big.
- The trees are far too close to each other. I see you're using them for blocking mostly, but rocks, "hills" with pathing blockers and other doodads would work just as fine. If you really want to mass trees, the standard elveswood model would look much better I think.
- I can teach you how to apply that "animated" effect to other plants, so you can avoid having the crop stand perfectly still while all around the vegetation is waving at the wind.


The combat system, instead, it's the only thing that need some serious retinking imo; I mean having the creeps popping up from nowere right next to you. It wouldn't be too bad either if they didn't keep spawning constantly. I run into the first boss by accident, simply running away from a horde of spiders and rats. Apart from causing obvious balance issues, that also makes the exploration of the world quite tedious.
As a suggestion, you could maybe randomly place the enemies every time you enter the zone, and let them chase you if you get near; that would leave more room for sneaking past them, or running away if necessary.

thx for the comment
The doodads have been slightly moved when i resized the map bound and some have been moved to the nonplayable area but it isn't in the real map.
And your cambat system sound good i 'll use it.

May I test it?

Well, you were right I guess, the MK animations are fine for the child. I also forgot to say that the pet summoning only works once.
