Chaos Uprising is the latest project that I have undertaken. It is still in its early development stages with only the layout planned.
What is Chaos Uprising?
Chaos Uprising is a team-based RPG, hoping to instill teamwork as well as a balanced diversity of heroes. The style will be more or less like Tomb of Jarahcon, where you tackle creeps dungeon by dungeon, or instance by instance. It also features a unique spell learning system and also customisation, which I will explain more later in this thread.
Features
- 8 Classes of Heroes
- Stat sysyem
- Unique Skill Learning System
-Mastery Rates
- Mastery Dependancy
- Hero Customisation
- Polished Tooltip
Aside from all that, the story and everything else isn't planned yet.

What I've Done So Far
Created the spell learning system, and a few spells for the Cleric Class. I haven't done the terrain or anything yet because I wanted to get the core of the map done first, and whether it was possible for me to do it. But rest assured the system is working fine.
What you can do
Well, It would be much appreciated if you could post your comments or thoughts on this project.
Also, you can post ideas or suggestions that you have for me. Something like storyline, possible improvements, stats suggestions, or better yet, spell ideas.
All of the spells only have one level, require a certain exp to master, require a certain item, and usually have effects based on stats. See polished tooltips for example.
Thank you for reading through this. I apologise for the lack of screenshots but this is no screenshots worth posting.

Features
- 8 Classes of Heroes
Players will be able to choose between 8 hero classes, each with their own stats and Mastery Rates.
The classes are:
Knight, Blademaster, Berserker, Swordsmage, Archer, Cleric, Sage, Necromancer.
The classes are:
Knight, Blademaster, Berserker, Swordsmage, Archer, Cleric, Sage, Necromancer.
Instead of the normal stats like Strength, Agility or Intelligence, Chaos Uprising will have its own stats which will affect the heroes in different ways. A few examples are Wisdom, Speed, Fortitude.
Features the learning of abilities through items. Very similiar to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance for the Game Boy Advance. If you haven't played it before, here's how it works. Players already have abilities in spellbooks that are disabled. To be able to use them, players have to have a certain item equipped. The only condition that the hero can use the ability without the item is when he has already mastered the ability. To master it, you simply have to gain exp by killing enemies while the item is equipped.
Every hero has their own Mastery Rates, which will affect how fast they learn a skill. An example:
Cleric
Melee Skill - 20%
Ranged Skill - 30%
Life Force - 50%
Magic - 60%
Imbue - 60%
Clerical - 90%
Necromastery - 0%
Cleric
Melee Skill - 20%
Ranged Skill - 30%
Life Force - 50%
Magic - 60%
Imbue - 60%
Clerical - 90%
Necromastery - 0%
Each and every skill has a mastery dependancy, which decides which mastery rate affects the skill. Meaning if a skill's Mastery Dependancy is Clerical, the hero's Clerical Mastery Rate will be taken to determine how fast the skill masters.
As seen above, this allows the hero to master any ability which the other classes would have, though at a much slower rate. This allows for endless possiblities of hero combinations.
Chaos Uprising will feature polished tooltips for spells, allowing players to see what item is required for an ability, a mastery meter and loads more.
