The Proposal (15)

1 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2011-12-19 22:33 ID:Ud19Ppvp [Del]

I am creating a game, through (res) RPG Maker. It is just the quickest thing to obtain, and can do very professional games. Well, back on-to the topic, now.

The game is called 'The Proposal'. It mixes bits of comedy, with a Fantasy RPG. The game takes a Criminal, and places him right smack-dab in the middle of a conflict, and he becomes an unsuspected Hero. He is a criminal, because he pushed his fiance off of a cliff.

People are after him; a Military-like group of very dangerous, highly trained people. They are after him, because they mistook him for someone else, and basically the police were never after him in the first place. This game is built manly on one giant plot twist, which section the twists off.

I wanted your opinions on this, and what you'd like to see in this type of game.

Sounds interesting, but not exactly something I would get into myself.

One thing I love in plot-twist type games however, are alternate endings or branching story lines. IE: Ones where he gets caught by the military people, or ones where he turns himself in, etc.

It would be interesting to see different aspects of the protagonist come to light through different possible routes, but that's essentially like creating three games in one - with the exception of possibly reusing some old maps.

Well he does get captured. But the story goes that after he kills off most of the people after him, he confronts their leader, who you have to fight, and once you win you find out who they are truly after, and then you take over as the leader of that group. Because you killed everyone off other than the leader, you have to get more members to join you. Basically that is how it goes.

So in a way it's like Suikoden then? Those games (at least the first 2) have you build up a massive army with a truly massive group of support characters to do whatever goal the plot sets you. Bunch of people are originally after you for trumped-up charges, you run, join the piss small rebel army and become the leader, become a massive force to be reckoned with.

Oh, and I hope the twist isn't ripped from Planetscape Torment.

I know it may sound like it, but you only get 7 characters. Whereas in Suikoden it's like 107 Stars of Destiny or some number close to that.

You don't really get many people, and you do get a few temporary members, but it only allows that in sections that calls for more power in fights. Like the first character you can use other than your own, is a 3 Headed Wolf. It's in a Forest in which you can only obtain it there, only use it there, and once you're done, it's done. Also in order to win you have to capture it in battle. That part too a tad bit too long to fix so it wouldn't glitch.

(res) was meant to say (yes), by the way.

Anyway. I'm also trying to move away from a general experience earning system, while still having it for the nostalgic feeling.

I'm thinking about having it where it does work, and once level 100 it resets to level 1 with all stats added over.

Tell me what you think.

New idea for my game. Instead of FINDING Ultimate Weapons, every person on your team gets a 'Crystal' Weapon. Forged from the 'Giant Crystal'. It's a main Plot point in the story, and this Crystal weapon can change into any weapon style you want, and each style has a max level, in which gives a special weapon style based on the one you used. This will be the 'Ultimate Weapon' type of style. What do you think?

You're going to make this game? O.o Genius

Hah, you really mass multitask.

Let's see what I remember..

Hellfire, your story and manga

Your Forum RP game, (I forgot the name.)

The chatroom (which is now complete)

And now, a game.

15 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-01-16 22:17 ID:D9mneSs6 [Del]

Chatroom is far from complete. We just got a basic chat made.
So we got 5-10 percent done.
The game, on the other-hand, has been something I do on my spare time.

But year. I multi-task. It keeps the juices flowing.
