Turnabout Labyrinth - An Ace Attorney... RPG?!

Turnabout Labyrinth is... another fan game project I'm working on. It
is being developed on RPG Maker XP (Yes the legal one). Basically what
I am doing is, "What if all of the original Ace Attorney plots were in
an RPG game rather than a court game?"

So yes, this fan game will contain spoilers from AA games 1 to 3, all cases

Many of the 'dungeons' in this game will be maze-like, or at least having
various puzzles hence the title. That and the island of Labyrinthos, is
the main setting of the fan game.

Spoiler: Story / Plot
Far off in some distant ocean, is the island of Labyrinthos. Centuries
ago it was nothing but forest and mountains, creating an eerie, maze-like
realm. But then humans discovered the land and chopped away most of the
forests which allowed them to build settlements and pathways. What they
didn't know was that countless monsters also inhabited the island. The
police forces were soon forced to deal not only with criminals, but
protecting the citizens from these blood-thirsty creatures as well.

But then soon it changed. The court of Caomh (a town), known as The Court
of Miracles, (I couldn't think of anything else) had completely changed.
People were trained to become "Monster Hunters" whose job was to defend
everyone from the creatures. The Court of Miracles now no longer held trials,
but became an agency where these hunters gathered. And it was all run
by none other than Miles Edgeworth.

These hunters became specialists, and at last the police forces could go
back to their roots. Even then, they still sometimes aided the hunters
in their mission to forever protect the island of Labyrinthos.

That was only the beginning. A rookie hunter, Phoenix Wright, has just
graduated from another island's university and is ready to take on the
challenges that Labyrinthos has to offer. But it only starts from there,
some pretty weird and unexpected things will happen along the way.....


Some Planned Features:
*There will be various party members featuring the main cast of the AA series,
plus some extras.

*There will be Shoe, and he kinda plays a bigger role than what you may
think. Besides, everyone loves Shoe. :D

Spoiler: Planned Party Members. I'm not listing all of them.
Phoenix Wright:
Class: Swordsman
The rookie Monster Hunter, and he aims to please. Still not many people
believe in his hidden skills, can he turn the tables and prove them otherwise?

Mia Fey (Temporary party member)
Class: Archer
Mia is said to be the greatest Monster Hunter around, of this time. She's
even better than Edgeworth! She will be Phoenix's mentor in the game.

Jake Marshall:
Class: Gunner
An investigator that serves for the Labyrinthos Police Force, he also
occasionally works as an security guard. He will join you several times
during your adventure.

Maya Fey:
Class: Summoner (Also a user of black magic)
The Master in training, even then her powers are sorta weak at the beginning.
She first joins to seek revenge against somebody, and then decides to
stay with Phoenix later.

Pearl Fey:
Class: Geomancer, she summons power from her surroundings in battle.
She is also a user of white magic, a healer, etc.

Pearl joins the party later after she worries about Mystic Maya's
safety. As a child, she doesn't have the best of stats. But her healing
powers may prove to be very helpful.

That's all for the party previews.


Spoiler: Screenshots
Most of the current screenshots you see are 'prototypes'. The next time
you see newer screenshots, things may look very different. Eventually
older screenshots will be replaced.

Phoenix talking to Larry in the S.S. CR, yes I fail at making ship
cabins. I hadn't made Larry's sprite yet, but eventually I will.


Image

Phoenix talking to Mia Fey in Brych Port, the town you start in.
Their armored sprites are mostly finished, I just have to recolor their
armor. Also I used a custom tileset for Brych Port but now I don't
really like it, so the port's appearance is likely to change.


Image

World map being worked on, and I still have much to add. The town you
see is Brych Port.


Image

Gourdy Forest being worked on, this is the entrance. I hope to make
this forest maze-like without any special puzzles, but it may be
a bit too easy to navigate. Oh well.


Image

The battle screen. Things are planned to change in this. For example
I hope to add bars and will eventually get to adjusting the stats.


Image


OC Cameos and References:
I am willing to put some OC cameos, references or references of
anything else in this game. Just PM me with details.

However I will not make a reference or cameo of every OC. Especially
cameos since spriting DOES take awhile to do. I'll try to please everyone
here, but I simply cannot do everyone. I'm sorry.

Currently these are the people or things that have appeared in some form,

*Court-Records (Shortened as CR) in the form of a reference.
*Apollo and Kristoph are planned to make cameo appearances, but will not
be 'important' characters.
*Percei's OC, Spyse Liqhr, will make a cameo appearance.

Helping:
If you would like to help out with this project, just PM me or post here.
Graphics are one way to help, especially spriting. I can give you the
resources that you may need for graphics or whatever. It may also
help to go to somewhere like RMXP.org. You can also help with other
things too of course. :P

Discuss.

RPG being the most ultimate of genres ever, (after adventure games, especially adventure games starring spiky haird defense attorneys), I of course am very interested in this attempt. I can't say I've seen an rpg about spiky haired defense attorneys, and since it looks like you aren't bunking the tradition of missing S.H.D.A RPGS, I'm sad to say my dream of a S.H.D.A RPG will go as yet unfulfilled. But, RPG's featuring spiky haired characters are quite common, so I think the characters will transition nicely.

Although going for the labyrinth aspect of RPG's seems like an awkward decision. But sometimes awkward decisions can pay off big time. (A game that takes place mostly in a courtroom? Insanity! Who would play such a thing?)

Yes, there will be cutscenes. Most RPGs always have those.

@Saluk: The Labyrinth thing is supposed to give a kind of setting to the continent, I'm trying to make Labyrinthos seem mysterious (especially Caomh), but I think I'm failing at that aspect. So. Anyway, I never heard of a S.H.D.A. RPG, what's that?

Updates:

I have now pretty much finalized the concept of Gourdy Forest, most of it. Now I'm working a bit more on Caomh and its starting events. I haven't tweaked much of the scripting, stats or sprites yet but eventually I'll get back into back, for now I'm working on mapping and events. No new screenshots yet, sorry.

Percei's OC, Spyse Liqhr, will be making a cameo appearance in Caomh.

Also I was thinking. I played a really good RPG XP game yesterday. It had a small stat window in the top of the screen, which would display a party member's health, skill points, EXP and current status. Meaning you can view it anytime without having to constantly go into the menu or enter a battle just to check. Would anyone like to see that in the project? Yes or no.

I reckon this is a good feature. I would personally enjoy it, seems clever as long as it's not too intrusive to the screen.

As for OC cameos, would it be possible for Kitten to make a Cameo ( or maybe even temporarily be a part of the party? ) If need be I could get RPG Maker sprites created for you to use.

Sorry, OCs won't be party members. If you do make the sprites for her, then I guarantee that she will make a cameo appearance. I'll just have to give you the resources. Do you mind showing me what your OC looks like?

It's not mine, it's my sisters. And if you don't mind me shamelessly plugging another topic rather than having to repost a huge image in here.. Then kitten is in this link about half way down the page. and there is a downloadable copy with alot more frames of her if need be.

Otherwise I suppose I will have to point you towards this image

The first link redirects me to the forum index. Anyway I'll see what I can do.

Sorry that I haven't been updating a lot recently, I'm playing a mafia round in Ace Attorney Online and I've kinda gotten busy playing a gazillion Harvest Moon games. :/

But I can assure you that I am working on stuff, such as more events. I'm also starting to get the soundtrack sorted, but that's far from complete. Also most of the music I'll be using will be midis, sorry but they're a much smaller file size than MP3s.

I've added the new message system script. Although it is not very great looking in this game, it works better than the default message system.

Image

Caomh does look very plain. It looked a lot more pretty when I was making this game in RPG Maker 2000, and I was using a special tileset, so. Notice that I still haven't gotten to recoloring Mia and Phoenix's armor. I haven't done much spriting, sorry.

Sound cool and looks cool Super Judge Bro., but I must say that I highly recommend that you use sprites you have made or edited yourself. I've seen many games created with RPG Maker, but many of them trip to the same stone :P

I'd be glad to help with spriting, it'd take me a bit to adjust to the small pixel style, but I could do it.

I know this topic is pretty old, but if the TC sees this, have you abandoned the project?
