Crimson Shift

[h1]In Short: Interesting game with multiple endings and achievements. Playing the first, [i]Crimson Light[/i], helps, but is not necessary. More than worth the price.[/h1] https://youtu.be/FuximLPl7HQ https://youtu.be/ANbMmAPrQ_0 [i]Crimson Shift[/i] is the sequel to [i]Crimson Light[/i], although [i]Crimson Light[/i] came out [i]after[/i] this one did (at least one steam). You play the character Naokee as she tries to remember who she was, how she can escape her assassin lifestyle, and just who the mysterious person in red who chases after her is. What a mouthful. Anway, the game plays very nicely, with minimal errors (there is a nasty crash error that can happen during some boss fights, so save often!) and a very interesting combat system. In fact, it is one of the more unique I’ve seen for RPG Maker, and flows very nicely. Now if only I could understand what I was doing half the time ;P I really liked the guard system, but to get the most out of it, you need to watch for ‘...

This game is definitely worth the price. You get a game with multiple endings. The story is well written, I actually cared about the characters, the combat is interesting, the music used in the game was well chosen. There's no proper controller support would be my only gripe, but you can use one, it's just the buttons are mapped wierd and may take some time to get used to. If your worried about getting just another crap RPG Maker game, this is not one of those. There's a prequel to this game as well that's free that is worth playing as well since it introduces a lot of lore.

This game manages to keep its grip on me the whole time through. I almost instantly connected with all of the characters and they all are written in a way that they're each unique individuals and they have their own personalities. I also felt something extra for some of them because I played another game called Crimson Light that tells a story that's tied to this game. The story was really interesting and engaging. The city has it's own feeling and it works nicely with how the story revolves. The people of the city felt like they belonged there and weren't just random npcs that are there just so it wouldn't feel empty. There are some choices in the game that really feel like you're making a difference in how the main character reacts to everything. The choices are pointed out to the player in a way that it really matters what you chose. The battle mechanics are done very well, I usually don't like the basic fighting system in rpg maker games but in this one it's more active, with al...

This looks good to me. I only played a little but want to play more. I really like the clicking sounds in the text and feel of this game so far. Style is great and the combat is really fun. Will edit later

First of all, I would like to say that I am proud to say that this game got its start in one of the greatest (IMHO) online RPGMaker communities in existence: [url=https://rpgmaker.net/] RMN [/url]. I used to be very active a few years ago, and the people there have helped me move forward in my life during some tough times. There are MANY very good free games over there, a few of which led to the development of this one. Please check them out! Now, onto the review! As you could probably guess by the blurb above, I really enjoy RPGMaker games, even the ones that tend to feel a bit samey. Although this one is definitely a cut above, it still falls into that category a little bit. Many of the sprites are stock with RPGMaker VX (or VX Ace; I'm a bit out of touch with the community...), and a lot of the tiling assets are as well. But, aside from that, there has been a lot of custom work done to make this game a gem! The music is great, if only a tiny bit repetitive. The in battl...
