Scarline v0.1 Prototype


Devlog #1 — The First Steps Into Memory

Hey everyone, Ethyrya here.

Just wanted to drop a quick update as I begin shaping the world of Scarline.

This project is deeply personal, a narrative RPG based on real events from my life, starting from age six and spanning into the present. It's raw, emotional, and reflective. Right now, I’m laying down the groundwork to make sure the story unfolds in a way that feels both meaningful and immersive.

✅ What’s done so far:

  • 🗺️ World SF Map: I’ve set up the main “memory world” map using RPG Maker MZ’s SF tileset. This space represents the fragmented landscape of memory, it’s inaccessible for now but will be central to how the game flows.

  • 🏠 Present-Day Home Map: The player’s starting point, a cozy, imagined future where the protagonist lives with their fiancée. It’s a moment of peace before the journey begins.

  • 🚪 Intro Area: Created a placeholder map for the game’s intro sequence. Still planning what happens here, but it’ll help set the tone.

  • ⚔️ Custom Class & Actor Setup: I’ve defined the protagonist’s stats, class traits, and a progression curve based on age (level 6 to 23). Keeping things grounded in reality.

  • 🎒 Custom Items & Skills: Built emotional support items and inner strength skills that reflect real mental health themes like therapy, breakdowns, and healing moments.

This is only the beginning, but every piece added is a piece of me. Thanks for joining me on this.

Keep in mind this game is currently a PROTOTYPE, there is no gameplay or story at this time. All you can do is wander around the starting house as a proof of concept.

Love, Ethyrya~ 💜
