Is the maintenance still going on ? I see on the forms that server status is online, but i get a connection lost message when trying to access the game.

omg this is too good to be true ! that sand village building... big pokeball !

Maybe making it in teams (of 3 for example) ? The first team to get the number of frog legs wins. This way different element jutsus may be put to work together. An idea would be : Battle Royal. The last surviving wins. Meaning that short term alliances would have to be made and as easily ended. Also you would need to play it strategically. Basically it's like the ninja world, but much much more faster. Another idea : make mini-movies in game (2min or 3min max length) It would boost people into RP and would be funny as hell. I'd like to see a pie eating contest, but I have no real idea how to implement that one (other than "the one to click the fastest on his keyboard wins"...). Soccer game : on the field players are immune to dammage, but if they touch the ball or if it gets hit by a jutsu, it goes in the direction it was hit. Basic. Olympic games - The Spring of Youth !!! 1. Make a tour of the village by touching the checkpoints in the different maps around the village. Anything is allowed : fighting, teleportation or simply running. 2. First to kill 50 specific mobs (turtles i suggest). 3. Tap the moderator : the moderator/game master runs around and everyone has to try to get a hit. The first hit wins. 4. JANKEN !!! 5. Best outfit or best joke. And everything ends with a cup of sake of course.

I never roleplayed before, but I'm eager to see if I can get a real sensei in this new world!

Nice work Just one thing I noticed concerning the 3 gif animations for the different perspectives of the taijutsu punch : in the first one, the paperdoll keeps the stance a lot time less than the other two, after the impact Keep up the good work guys!

OK Seth, I'll try next time the game's up. But honestly, i tried all the keys, even tried Shift+All Keys and even changing from French (yes, it's a French keyboard) to English... Must be doing something wrong. Don't really worry about it, if I still have trouble when the game is back up, I'll let the staff know! Thanks for your time anyway and good luck

something like this : and it doesn't work when auto-targeting players

The only problem I have is the "player-target" key. I don't really have that Key on my laptop so basically, during all last Alpha, I couldn't target any player which always put me at a disadvantage in pvp. I basically tried every Key on my laptop but it didn't work. The only way to target a player was to hit him first or to try and click on him with the mouse.

In this devlog Rory shows the heaven and earth scrolls for the Chunnin exam : still, maybe in this first chunin exam there won't be a forest of death, who knows

Seeing as the Chunnin exams will be the first big role-play event held on NinOnline, i think they'll stick to "realism"... thus like in the series, not even half will pass. Correct me if I'm wrong. That's just what I was lead to believe upon browsing the forums for months now.

@Fernando OK, will there be many of these "rocks" in the game ? And yeah, i know about the body flicker, just thought it was something else since there's usually the name appearing in blue when using a jutsu and didn't see one here Anyway, nice work, once again!

Great job, Fer! The cloaks look neat. The animation for the jutsu is cool, too bad you can't see too well the head of the dragon. Partly because of the speed, so not your fault. Also, there's a moment when you pass near the rock, we can't see your head, which doesn't feel right since the rock should be behind you... And is it me or are you using a teleportation tehnique? >< Edit : smooth edits, Rory and Seth! 3 whole days on aniations, wow!

Looking good Rory! Small question : what happens if you're charging chakra during combat and someone hits you ? does the technique stop ? See ya soon in-game!

Nice! Good work, they really get you in a playing mode. And good work for the team too! Taking in a composer just shows how much you've thought about this and that this project is going full speed ahead!

was just testing the pvp mode btw, you should start an organization now that it's possible TPKO : The Player Killers Organization (not sure Rory would agree though smh)

trying to save your pride, i see keep on telling them lies and we shall continue the "hunt the artist" game

shoulda screened when you got your ass wooped -_-

Yes please let me have it, Rory!

smh this is more than we deserve ^_^ on a side note : Atrox is right about the light in the hokage building, weird love the anbu mask Kimi's wearing! doesn't it hide the id of the player yet? on the map "near the valley" - the big tree on the right - light's coming from above yet we see shadows from the leaves even though it's the biggest tree around, but it still gives a nice feeling to the surrounding the first pic - the building on the left - you can see through the left window and we see the grass (continuing from the bottom), like there's nothing in it >< but maybe that's the whole idea, my bad anyway, thx for the preview Rory, i'm even more eager to stay level 1 Academy Student and to just roam the land now!

as i said in the shoutbox, very nice! i'm no expert, but maybe the shadow's too... black? in the second one... anyway, hope you'll continue on the path of non-naruto-show overalls

and will he be able to just attack anyone within that village even if they have pvp off?

@Rory thank you x'D and, tell me if i'm wrong, but "Safe Zone" in village = you're safe in your own village from other players from the same village, right? >> if i see a sneaking iwa-spy, i can still kill him even if in the village, right? >> if i'm a iwa-spy walking in konoha, i can still kill villagers, right?
