WHAT HAPPENED TO LUFIA FOUR?!
Sorry depsite popular believe, the game IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION and has been taking a lot longer time than I could have ever predicted. So far, I can’t get in touch it seems with the main artist of the game because of her busy life. The composer, my sister’s computer broke down, the one that she makes the music on (She’s still writing composition for the game BTW). And as for me, I decided that I best rewrite the script and characters because I wasn’t ‘feeling’ the story anymore. Not to mention that I had to find the time to find out what my password was again- fun stuff.
So as you can see the project has been going… ’smoothly’.
This has been more hastle than I could have ever imagine, but rest assured I AM STILL WORKING ON THE GAME AND IT IS NOT CANCELED.
The point of me making a game in the first place was to show that it CAN be done, and WILL be done.
Look foward to the next screen capture happening ’soon’. Also thanks to ’sinirevi’ for being that Lufia Goddess, whenever I need some info or content. She’s been there a few times.

First Screen Of Lufia IV
Beta Ingame Screen
All the super polish will be put at the end of the project.
As you can see, the graphics are worse than Lufia II, yes. But since this my project and Lufia IV being a sequel I wanted a new look. It would have been easy to throw over the art from Lufia: Ruiins of Lore or Lufia II for that matter, but I want this to be the original Lufia IV look.
Rest assured things are moving along. I intend to keep it going.

An Update Out of Nowhere: Music
Right when you thought the fate of the title would end up in the world of ‘wouldashouldcoulda’, here comes another update to hopefully restore a bit of faith in my slow progresss.
I’m happy to remind the world of Lufia that ‘Dekar the Great’ has announced that his project (Lufia 5: Fourth War) is continuing to be developed. Which is great. I know I know, this post isn’t about that, please read on…
I’m very happy to announce today that Lufia 4, will have it’s own original soundtrack. As much as I love the original music of the Lufia games, there has to be SOME difference right? This IS Lufia FOUR after all.
Now I can already feel the mix reaction, but please understand that I have the opertunity to place original music in the game and I need to use it as a game developer. The composer of the music is Stephanie Bradshaw, my sister. I am working very closly with her to make sure that the style of Lufia is maintained. Stephanie has won a couple of awards and has a letter of recommendation from her school’s music department.
Here is taste of the Music… enjoy
That’s not to say that some classic songs can’t be used from the other games, I mean, how can I make a Lufia without the Doom Island tune, RUINS OF LORE?

Tannis Pen Sketch
Tannis is the main character of the game. Most of the decisions and direction of the title actually happen very fast. Well, once apon a time I drew this quick QUICK sketch of what the main character of the game might look like.
I hope to show you more in the future.
A Lufia IV Blog?!
Do we really need something like this? Probably not. But it’s still a good idea to check out if you want the latest and greatest of what is to come from the Lufia 4 game.
The Blog is basically going to drizzle pieces of what’s to come from Lufia, I’m not sure at this point what will come from this whole thing. But I’ll say this, I’m looking foward to releasing this.
Feel free to bash the hell out of me and the title.
