RPG indie game that uses your Avatar

Alright. Time to put that Xbox 360 avatar to work.

The Avatar Legends is an upcoming role-playing game by indie developers Barker's Crest. While not exactly rivalling Oblivion for scale and scope, it looks to be a breezy, cute little RPG, which boasts a ten-hour singleplayer game, co-op, multiplayer (for up to six people!) and a level/quest editor, from which you can create missions and share them with your friends.

What looks so promising about this game is that, unlike a sports or driving title, this will actually let you take control of your avatar and go on a proper adventure with them.
And while the included adventure looks to be fairly limited, that's beside the point. The real game will come when users get their hands on the level editor, which lets people mess with everything from story creation to quest structures to weather to enemy placement. You can even drop people from your friends list into the game as NPCs, and set up "horde-like" multiplayer arenas.

It's due out later this month on the Xbox Live Indie Channel. And if it takes off, the Avatar Marketplace is going to need more gauntlets.

This game actually sounds pretty cool.

There is no Indie game section for Ireland. The cunts, this sounds good and all. :x

I dowloaded a trial of something like this recently. I imagine it's a different thing considering this one is apparently not released yet.

But the one I played, no offense to the creators, wasn't that good. The movement was sluggish and the animation choppy.
The environments were also pretty uninteresting and the combat was very tedious.
I realise it's an indie game and so congrats to them for making this, I wouldn't be able to do anything nearly as good.

FUCK no indie games in my country.

Sounds cool, but customization means nothing if the core game isn't fun.

Sounds like LittleBigPlanet to me, but in RPG form. You're supposed to make your own quest and story line and levels and stuff.

I know. I'm saying that customization means nothing if the game itself has poor controls or just isn't fun. Imagine if LittleBigPlanet was a really lousy game. It doesn't matter how many levels you make, the game is still not going to be fun, and for some people, it's not.
