Gifted Rings: Records of Jacob Matthias [Chapter 1] (Where it started)

    WHERE IT STARTED                                                        My name is Jacob Matthias. I write this as I sit upon my wooden chair at my porch, looking over my garden and the ocean blue sky, for which the clouds leisurely strolled.                     I write this from records for which I have witnessed around the middle of my life, records I believe are so massive, they would be talked about before I depart this world.                     I know not if this record shall endure to find its place in history, yet I must put it down on paper; that the truth may not fade into legend, nor be stretched by poets into myth.         ...

Dusk: Prologue

 A group of humanoids with rotten flesh clinging to their bones, slowly approaches a Castle surrounded by vast trees at all corners but one.

These clearing leads straight to the castle and stops at a large wooden door.

The humanoids marches from all corners, inching closer to the castle. Unfortunately for them the wooden door burst open with a great force strong enough to sweep the front lines, but strong enough to clear the vast army.

The reason for the unfortunate turn of event wasn't the force, but for whom the force came with.

A light skinned lady in a wind swaying black dress, walks forward confidently. She raises her both hands forming the letter "X", and drops them with force; sending forth two vertical red light beams in the shape of an "X". 

The light beams clears the humanoids in front of her, and kept going.

The lady stops and raises her hands, pointing her index finger to the heavens.

A red glowing translucent ball forms a few inches from her finger tips, the ball appears to be made of great uneasy wind; but yet double the size of a berry.

A few seconds later,the ball erupts engulfing the vast trees in red mist. The humanoids paid no attention to the situation and marched forward unfazed.

The lady exposes her top teeth in a casual smile and whispers "Inflamdio", in an instant as the last vowel sounds all humanoids are engulfed in flames; making the atmosphere fill with eerie cries.

The lady let her hair flow in the wind, as she arch her back slightly backward, and left leg  stretched slightly forward.

She whispers under her breath "I forget how much I love combat.".

After a few seconds the mist clears, revealing ashes where the humanoids stood.

The lady straighten up and dust her dress, arch her waist a little forward to dust her thighs; but was interrupted by a groan a few distance in front of her. She raises her eyes to see a new group of humanoids had appeared.

She smiles with a wide grin from ear to ear, and rushes forward towards the crowd with her palm forward facing and glowing red.

Q1 2025 Story and Priority Update.

 So, it is the 3rd month of 2025..and I have not achieved my goal of publishing ONE Agency to google play store. That was a wake up call, and made me re-prioritise my activities. At core, I am a business man..whom want to retire via the dividend paid from his company that produces games which is loved by 1/10 of the world population (8 billion people), and this people are paying a minimum of 15 USD per year for the company's games (12B USD). I picked games because I do love the development of games, since my experience with rpg maker and the making of Detective Nari game, and the fact I am currently based in a third world country..that is Nigeria. So, the thing with games is that...there are marketplaces that have been built since the 2000s, or closer. This marketplaces already have a large user base, accumulated over the years..and this means distribution of the product is handled as long as you can get it to the marketplace and collect payment. Majority of this marketplaces pay i...

O.N.E AGENCY UPDATE

 Hello Players.  Just wanted to drop off an update on what have been done on the game. I started working on a collection of whodunnit game, but stopped at some point. I had lost motivation, and was too lazy to do anything at some point...I s uspect it was burn-out, or adulthood, or just plain lazy. This state got out of hand for a while, and it affected me all round in different parts of life. Long story short, a few things game me motivation to work on the game once more. The motivations are My Lady, and the play through of a masterpiece of a game called small saga (the youtube video of part 1 is https://youtu.be/6qluZJCBYEg?si=xEDRxNKxKEKVTIXI) The youtuber did a good job at commentary. Gave me back a little spark, and I read the developers interview with construct here https://www.construct.net/en/blogs/construct-official-blog-1/developer-diaries-darya-1869 and his reddit AMA..which made me remember how to finish a game. 1 step at a time. So with the new found motivati...
