History:
Demon’s Revenge comes from our love to create games. We have always created stories and characters as individuals, but this game gave us the opportunity to collaborate, bringing both of our styles and experiences together. We’d been making this game for years before we began the actual development. We have been taking the time to refine our skills and build a team that could see this project to our full vision. Our main goal is to make a game that will be balanced in presentation, gameplay and story. By that I mean we do not want one aspect of the game to overshadow another. We feel too many JRPGs concentrate on one thing or the other and leave the others lacking. We want to avoid that. We want to create a truly memorable experience in the same light as Final Fantasy 7, Chrono Trigger and Suikoden 2.

Here is a basic tutorial area of the game. While it does include story, it takes a back seat to introducing the controls and gameplay. A very simple quest is there, but there is also lore to discover and secrets to uncover! Enjoy!
About White Guardian Studios
White Guardian Studios is currently made up of just two developers. The other members of the team are contract workers. We strive to uphold quality, playability and fun in our games.
Whitney White - Whitney is the writer, developer, coder, and the occasional pixel artist. Whitney has always had a love for games ever since she first picked up a controller and controlled the orange ball of !&*? that is Q-Bert. Whitney has been writing since the days of the dreaded noisy TYPEWRITER and has always wanted to write for games. Now she is finally getting her chance to tell a story to the masses. Whitney has 3 exuberant kids, ages 6, 3, and 1, and manages to balance work, kids, and love every single day. Whitney's favorite games are Tomb Raider (ALL OF THEM (except the black sheep Angel of Darkness... That doesn't count :P) ), Suikoden 2, Final Fantasy 8, and Pharaoh.
Tyrell White - Tyrell is the concept artist, pixel artist, co-writer, and co-developer. Drawing has always been a passion for Tyrell and comics were the cause. Tyrell is persistent and passionate about everything his name goes on. That includes his family, his work, hobbies, etc. Tyrell was always a fan of the Wild Arms series as well as the Legacy Of Kain series and has brought some of those influences into CT: DR. He also fills Whitney's plot holes and comes up with great ideas to make the game better.
CT: DR Team
White Guardian Studios &
Ricky Gunawan - Ricky is the character artist, sequential artist, and environmental artist. He is a talented, hardworking guy. Mainly working on book covers, we got really lucky when we found him and he actually wanted to do work for a game. His art comes in many styles as he is very versatile having done everything from children's books to anime to gritty comic art. He is very supportive of the team and has become a vital part of it. We hope to bring him on for many other games after this!
Zach Betts - Zach does all of the sound effect design for CT: DR. He is into game design and music, playing for an Australian band called Stone Chimp. He brings a unique style of sound to our game and strives to get it right. He has become a good friend and offers great advice and feedback on the game's development.
Michael Correa - Michael is one of the composers and has always been supportive of our project. He better be :P He's Whitney's brother. Michael has taken a step back from working on the game's music, but still contributes melodies and originals for Mark to work with. Michael has always had a passion for music of all styles as well as video game music from the likes of composers such as Nobuo Uematsu (Surprise).
Mark McKeich - Mark is one of the composers for CT: DR. He is also working on a couple of games, one being a horror game called Oneirophrenia. Mark has also been picked to join the staff of the official RPG Maker community for his outstanding composing abilities.
