Hey guys, Just a small announcement! Programming is well on it's way for alpha. However, content creation wise, we're still lacking any combat Jutsus, much variations in clothings, maps, mobs and missions. But we're still going ahead with the release on the same day. To make up for the lack of content, I'll be volunteering as a tour guide and clown to entertain everyone who logs into the server personally! Hopefully this will keep everyone entertained The client and server will be up at 12:00AM Midnight EST. Regards, Rory

The History of Nin Online More images coming soon.. Introduction Nin Online's history dates back to 2006. This was the year which I decided I wanted to make a Naruto online game. What made me want to do it? During one long holiday back in 2006, I started watching the early episodes of Naruto and I was really obsessed with it. I was sure that there must have had been an MMO based on this world. I knew that It was too good a concept to not have one based on it and sure enough, I was right. At the time, there were two projects attempting what I would soon find myself doing. They were NarutoQuest and NarutoRealm. The latter being the game project created by Robin, who I'll talk more about later on. After realizing that none of these were released, I decided why not make my own! So I googled "MMORPG Maker" and found a Visual Basic 6 engine called "Konfuze" to use, I started learning to do my own graphics badly, opened a forum and which became the rise of.. 2006: Naruto Project Back then, I gave the game a working title. It was called "Naruto Project". The graphics the game was based on was mostly edited from other sources, graphics released into the public domain, and even rips from another Naruto game project back then known as NarutoQuest. The game was based on a really crappy engine, which back then I was modifying and programming on. I was really bad at pixel art or any form of graphics for that matter. Suprisingly, the game gained a large amount of attention. Though the Internet was a much different place back then, and there wasn't any good Naruto BYOND games released at the time. Early 2007: Hidden Villages Online I renamed the game to "Hidden Villages Online" abbreviated as HVO. The game was still really bad, based on the same horrible engine. The graphics slowly improved as people pointed out the faults with the game's graphics and I started working on them. The game was starting to shape up, it saw a release at one point, the server was hosted "24/7" by a guy who volunteered to do it on his VPS. It saw constant downtime due to the server files being unstable and buggy. I eventually decided to close the server and rework the game entirely. I was a dumb kid, and after receiving a few fake C&Ds, I decided it would be best to throw aside the Naruto theme and make it a purely "Ninja" online game. Mid 2007: Hidden Villages Online: Inochi Yes, I did a sequel to a game which was barely ever released or known to anyone. Inochi means "Life" and the reason I added that into the title, which seemed to make sense at the time, was because I was going to focus the game on the living aspects of the game, like being a civilian. I'm not sure how I expected this to work out, and so the idea never lasted. Late 2007 Nin Online This eventually came to be the title i stuck with for the next 6 years. it grew onto me, it was my game - the game I just had to make - from that point on. I continued using the graphics from Hidden Villages Online: Inochi. The game was going to be less about civilian life, and more about Ninjas. The game also lost a huge part of its fan base when it became a ninja online game and I almost entirely left out anything related to Naruto. Because of this, my motivation to create Nin Online literally vanished one day. I hated everything I did in terms of planning and graphics that point. Early 2008: A Short break I took a long break from working on Nin Online, I started working on a few other projects and because of one of them I met Robin the creator of NarutoRealm, one of the games that inspired me to start making games and what was back then known as Naruto Project. One day, I pitched to Robin, to bring Nin Online and Naruto Project back as one project. He agreed, and we started working on an amazing project. We had a large, active community with thousands of members. Late 2008-2009: Nin Online remake 1 Nin Online started off with whole new graphics. They were good at the time, and I was finally grasping how to make really good, solid graphics, thanks to working with Robin who had an eye for these things. The game project's development dragged on for over a year without seeing a released. This was due to both Robin and I having really busy schedules. Initially, because I was studying at the time, I was working on the game a few days a week, which soon became just the weekends, and slowly.. progress just stopped there. The game's graphics was constantly being reiterated by myself, and I spent so much time redoing the graphics just as Robin had spent a lot of the time rewriting the game engine (for the better). But because of this, the development never made substantial progress. The community was large, active and filled with enthusiastic members. But eventually, my graphics skills improved too far that I despised all the work I had done up until that point. The game died in 2009 with a long apology to all our followers. But I promised that Nin Online would be back, better one day. June 2013 to Today: Nin Online Yes, it took 4 years. But I improved a hell lot since then. I'm determined this time to create a game fast, to get a release early, and work our way up from there. Nin Online has always been on my mind since that day in 2009. I missed the project, wanted to work on it again, but every time the idea of bringing Nin back came to mind, I felt it wasn't the right time. I was waiting on a good game engine to be released, one which Nin would be perfect on. But then I realized, there is not going to be a better time to make Nin online than now. I started making graphics for the new Nin online. Day after day, I just kept making these graphics with one goal in mind - release a game. I was determined that I would learn to code the game myself as well.. But that's when I met Whack/Eddie. At first, when I posted around forums for any interested programmers, I was looking for just anybody to take on the role. But this guy came in and blew me away. He is talented, hardworking and fun to work with. That's when we started getting online everyday to work together on. Lets see where we can take Nin Online from here

Were you drunk when typing this? I do agree, when other villages are in im pretty sure a raiding system will be added in Leither @ Cool avatar btw

I think I'd be cool if special groups are implemented at some point. It will show who is "The best of the Best" in each Village. Sannin: Leaf Sound Five: Sound Swordsman: Mist Ect Maybe make the bounties for people in these groups slightly higher than someone that would normally be of their rank? Sannin would obviously get the biggest bonus since there are only 3 traditionally followed by Sound 5 then the swordsman. But there is no rush in my mind. Something to think about later @ you can't have Kubikiribocho and the three sided scythe AND a golden headband. Hax status bro.

Anyways.. Enjoy!

Never had it! I heard many things about it but I never tried it, my friends think I'm weird ??? >?<

What about gangnam pizza?^^ Sometimes I eat it, it is delicious~ hehe ;3

Hello my good sir, welcome. Just a quicktip, if you write like this its really annoying to read. -The Pizza Master Of Destiny and The Orchestra-tor of the Great Attack That Will Come In Heavy Jackets.

@JustDeathBones Furuichi first place killed me xD And +1 for Shizuo on-topic : Shizuo (Durarara) Sanji (One Piece) Nicholas D. Woolfwood (Trigun) Hachiken (Silver Spoon) Byakuya (Bleach)

welcome to the gold club where the shit gets real Shizuo

done

I agree with these two. Also : You can't start a debate on weed and end up make it general to all drugs... Btw, alcohol is also a drug. Caffeine is also sometimes considered to be a drug. My opinion, if you like it - good for you, if your friend doesn't - don't pressure him. Anyway, you just gotta know to control yourself. Personally, I have no issues with it, but I never smoke alone, no fun ; also haven't touched that sh*t for 2 months already and i'm still as "crazy" as before ever smoking it.

@ It'll be easier to chat than the forums and we can visit the surroundings on-topic : nice 6AM for me, asleep, gotta get to work at 9AM, till 6PM... OMG that day will be like "never ending", waiting/wanting/panting to get home *_*

omfg... finally a countdown timer sooooo... midnight EST is gonna be about 7AM here hmm... looks like I'll have to get up earlier than usual and then be late for work )

Welcome to ninonline! yay!

Decided to just update this single thread with new sprites rather than create a new one every time. Throughout these sprites, i've been experimenting with various styles, to see what I like the most. *Disclaimer - None of these sprites are meant to be exact replicas, as with a small sprite base it can be hard to get all the details in and correct, therefore some things are compromised.

No drugs are good for you. There's no way to look at it as positively effecting you. Also, it DOES make you less intelligent. My brother became a pothead and, combined with his evil girlfriend, ruined his entire life and future.

It's a beautiful experience and path everyone ninja must one day walk. Else, ye'aint ninja.

Some of my favorites are... Family Guy, The Simpsons, Big Bang Theory, and The Walking Dead. I can't say much, however, since I rarely watch television.

641: A Bigger Black Ball of Chakra!! 642: Rasenshuriken has no Effect?? 643: A Bigger Black Ball of Chakra!!(!) 644: God Trapped: Madara's Wooden Prison 645: Clash of Overpowered Zombies

Got one! Is a player's nature affinity randomly decided, or can players choose which ones they want?

I've used this a few times but: @Rory
