Shinobi, The alpha phase of Shinobi Story is almost upon us, and I just wanted to give a few words & show everyone our planned development schedule for the duration of the alpha. We want to be as transparent as possible and to offer our community an understanding of what it is we are trying to accomplish. The whole game will not be available at the start- a lot of it is still being heavily worked on by our passionate Developer Team! This is the order of releases we will be developing & subsequently testing in the alpha (the dates are subject to change): Late March ( TBD) This is the base build of the game which offers a great deal of content for players to test & enjoy! This version is far from complete, but our volunteer team has been working very hard to bring you guys an epic ninja experience! TBD Our awesome RPG system which has been in the works from the days of Abyss which will offer a comprehensive way for players to engage in RPG combat, a fool-proof /roll system which prevents spoofing, and an overall positive quality of life improvement to RP! TBD Not your run-of-the-mill gathering/grinding/professions system. We've put a lot of thought into a healthy professions system that will provide very special perks, not feel boggy, and adds another dimension to the depth of the game. We've learned from the mistakes of other games & have seen what works and what does it, and are set out to create a very unique system for professions! We've taken a lot of inspiration from Runescape, WoW, Final Fantasy, and Archeage to bring 4 unique professions for the alpha which all sync organically into eachother! More will be added in future patches TBD We've giving players the ability to spawn Roleplay objects such as campfires, chairs, tents, scrolls, and a hundred other objects to decorate buildings, bring with them on missions, and change the scenery of any situation they find themselves in! We're going unique with this, meaning we are going to give players a lot of control of how they want their experience on Shinobi Story to be! These will not be all of the updates we do, as our alpha will be living & breathing, so there will be near daily updates, constant testing, and an epic Warring Clans roleplay story! If you haven't already, check out our lore guide! We will continue to work to remain transparent, and engaged with the community to respond to what they would like to see in our game. Thank you all for your continued interest & support of Shinobi Story ^^ Till next time, Vlad

We are investigating this, thank you for reporting it! ? Moved to bug reports

Hey guys, Recently there has been an internal conversation in the team chat about a standard of quality for organizations. I personally know many of you are excited to play various antagonistic groups, but every good group has a logical purpose behind it. While we never want to police the content you choose to make (to an extent), we would like to keep the bar for Shinobi Story relatively tasteful. As such, we've released some guidelines for players making organizations to consider & answer while filling out their organization info sheet! You can find the information at the top of every organization page. Can't wait to see what other organizations get made! Vlad

While it is easy to spam (I guess that is what forums are for!), quality content with the most impact will get noticed more! Posting a lot and encouraging forums participation is very on-brand, but helping others and teaching is always the most desirable!

There is a saying in poker: the goal isn’t always to win, but to be invited back to the table. Food for thought when interacting in RP

So, as some of you know, our Discord is home to some.. interesting content sometimes. If a post made you , , or , share it in Discord Highlights!

Hey everyone, Today was a bright day for Shinobi Story, as we finally unveiled the website and forums we have been working on behind-the-scenes for some time now. I want to personally thank the hard work of Cookie Monster, Jimmus, Dan, and Tempest for brining the web scene to life; we couldn't have done it without them! On our website you are able to create an account for the forums, but this username/password combination is also your credentials to log-in to Shinobi Story once our alpha goes live in March, so please remember it & keep it safe! We've experienced a few bugs getting the forums and site up, and about 65 accounts had to be purged for data loss; if your account was one of them, we apologize for this, and ask that you please consider remaking your account as soon as possible! Here is a quick link to the register page! Now that our forums are up, we will be making further official statements, documenting developer progress, and offering as much information as we can to the community! I encourage everyone to familiarize themselves & find a home on the forums, as we will definitely be on here a lot whether it be for news & information, new content, organizations, ninja info cards & journies, and various other helpful tools! I also encourage you to make your profile unique to you & to consider supporting the project by checking out Premium Ninja! We have quite a journey ahead of us, and I could not have asked for a better team to join me in creating Shinobi Story, nor a better community who is so inspiring & welcoming to those who find us. We hope to continue to foster & develop a positive community that values fun and companionship over drama and negativity which plagues so many online communities in our day. If you have any suggestions to help our community grow, please always feel free to reach out to a team member, we are always listening! Until next time, Vlad
