World on the Scales Development of a JRPG Game and a narrative game

Abstract

World on the Scales is a JRPG that tells the story of Livia, a historian who, during one of her excavations, discovers a letter that could change the course of her country and the entire island by altering the concepts they had about their founding history. The work consist to create a deep and developed narrative with extensive and evolving world building, while also providing depth to the characters so they do not feel hollow. Additionally, we will attempt to provide unique mechanics to the JRPG, such as an investigation system in various locations, as if the player were a historian recreating history. Academically, this document consists of the final degree project report of the Video game Design and Development bachelor’s degree at the Jaume I University.
