[edit] Hype Line
Who are you? Who are they? Have you discovered yourself, or left the treasure to others? Answer these questions in the Most Anticipated game for the OHRRPGCE (OHR Monthly, OHR Lounge).
[edit] Plot Synopsis
After his fall from grace from the group that calls themselves "Protectors", Dogero questions his role in society. Ready to accept defeat, he is confronted by a long lost friend, who inspires him to keep his dreams alive.
[edit] Source Code and Updates
On March 28, 2006, the game's HamsterSpeak source was released to the public under the RPL license. Shortly after, an SVN repository was set up where one may download a nightly updated version of the game. This nightly version allows brave souls to experience bleeding edge features of the game.
[edit] Notable Features and History
[edit] Realistic Time Synthesis (RTS)
While playing SoJPD, the time of day progesses - up to 4 different phases. The time does affect the story and gameplay.
[edit] Jadestone
Thanks to an afternoon The Mad Cacti spent playing around with the limits of the RPG Format, Sword of Jade cannot be edited in CUSTOM.EXE. Now it can't be played by recent OHR versions either. FyreWulff has dubbed this "Jadestone". Always play with the included copy of GAME.EXE!
[edit] Time spent in Development
Sword of Jade started development in late 1998 and early 1999. It was finally completed 6 years later in 2005.
