Legacy of the Wizard Remix Introduction

Legacy of the Wizard Remix

What is this?

This is a fanmade freeware game based on the MSX game "Dragon Slayer IV: Drasle Family" which was later ported to the NES in America under the name "Legacy of the Wizard". The game remake has been demanded from the fans and some fans are getting together to recreate the game in high definition. This blog is here so that fans can see the game creation's progression. Nothing is hidden, nothing is kept secret, everything is out in the open.

What kind of game is it?

The original was classified as a RPG platformer, and the Remix is going to be just that. You have a choice between five characters, each with varying degrees of abilities, and each able to only use certain objects, whom collectively have to work together to beat the game. The playing field is a massive labyrinth of a dungeon that is mostly open-world, although, due to the certain abilities of each character, certain puzzles can only be completed by one character or another. The game is a classic side-scroll platformer, puzzle, and shoot-em-up type game.

How will this blog work?

Everything Wizard's Legacy (formerly Kira Games) does towards the creation of this game will be posted in the blog. This helps the team stay coordinated and the fans updated. It is also a way for fans to actually see how a game is created from start to finish. Please note that future releases of Wizard's Legacy games will not be blogged like this.

What programming language will this game be written?

Currently we are using Game Maker Language Godot to program with. This is so the game can be programmed to run on other computer platforms other than windows.

If you ever have any questions about anything involving the game, please don't hesitate to ask.
