Title: The charas game
Post by: X_marks_the_ed on April 15, 2005, 07:58:54 PM
I have decided to make a game where the characters are from actually Charas members. Wanna be in it? Reply the following form about that kind of character you want to be. (Only the first 9 repliers will be put in!!!!!) [Hint: copy and paste the following form to your reply and fill it out.]

Name: (Must match your Charas name!!)
Age: (Any age between 14 and 28.)
Gender: (Male or female.)
Manner: (Cool, dark, offensive, nice, lazy, crazy, theiving, silly, gentle)
Cursing: (Yes or No)
Special:( Describe your characters special ability.)
Other info:( Any extra info about your character.)
History: (Come up a story for your character.)

-----Example form-----

Name:Merry
Age: 17 1/2
Gender:Female
Manner: Gentle
Cursing:No
Special: Heals herself by 69 HP.
Other info: Merry is one with nature. She has a weak offense, but a strong defense.
History: Merry was lonely elf until several of her friends explore the other reaches of Clover, fights Satan, and frees her brother, Nrman. She then married the king's son, Gregory. She broke up with him, and nows works for X_marks_the_ed by ripping off heads and feeding them to his Llama.

Just that easy. Long, but easy and fun.

Yeah. These kind of games usually fizzle out quickly.

Post by: X_marks_the_ed on April 15, 2005, 08:28:28 PM
No, it's just that I think your character is really creative. Not strong.
Title:
Post by: Sqoad on April 15, 2005, 08:34:04 PM
Looks interesting... is there any story line?
or is it a do quests and become strong game?
Title:
Post by: X_marks_the_ed on April 15, 2005, 08:36:45 PM
Basically, all of the characters live in a place called... guess what. Charas. At the beginning, you choose a character. That character goes a quest according to the story part of the form. Some quests meet. Some members fight each other. It's going to be really big.
Title:
Post by: Dragonium on April 15, 2005, 08:37:38 PM
I should think there'll be a storyline here...

Though it should be Charas related, I think.

EDIT: Fight eachother, eh? Shweet.
Title:
Post by: Sqoad on April 15, 2005, 08:39:54 PM
So everyone has their own special quest... Sounds fun. I might just want to join but I'm not sure...

Title:
Post by: X_marks_the_ed on April 15, 2005, 08:43:07 PM
Yeah, didn't you read that part?
Title:
Post by: Dragonium on April 15, 2005, 08:44:34 PM

Post by: DragonBlaze on April 16, 2005, 12:50:35 AM
Well my chars a dragon, so you can make him just an enemy, a npc somewhere, or if you really wanted to, I guess you could add him as a char or something :D

Name: Zesher
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Manner: Outgoing
Cursing:Mild
Special: Breath attacks such as fire breath
Other info: Zesher thinks of humans as very curious creatures, and often has conflicts with them because his outlook on life is much differant then humans since he's a dragon. He always voices his opinions when he has one, but he only shares his feelings with those he is very close to. Although he doesn't mind traveling with others, he doesn't easily trust them, and he always keeps his guard up.
History: Zesher had a rough childhood. For the first years of his life he had to raise himself, but somehow he managed to survive. As a child he was easly manipulated to do stuff that he would later regret, this leads him to have a feeling of remorse, and tries to make it up by helping others if its a life threatening problem. He wanders the wild, searching for his purpose on the planet.

His partner, the bologna sandwich named Oscar, helps him to maintain the insanity that grows inside him with each passing blow. In battle though, all his seriousness is directed towards the battle, he will not give up, even if his leg is broken... which has happened.

If you need a better history just tell me. I can make it a bit more serious, though it's all 100% accurate, *evil laugh*

Hi! My username is the current name of my project!

Name: Hadion (a.k.a "Hour of Crisis")
Class: Dark Knight
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Manner: Quiet, negative, and somewhat humorous.
Cursing: Yes
Waepon: Sword of Souls(Eventually gets the AA and the DD)
Special:  Being able to snap his fingers to create a lightning bolt.
Other info: Rarely speaks his opinion, mostly the facts.
History: Originally named Spyke, Hadion always wondered about world peace. After he matured, he had realized that humanity had no morals and no intelligence. Seeing things as a negative way, he left his home town to find something that will hopefully show the human race what life is all about. During his journey, he comes across many incidents that leads him to believe that there is simply no hope, and that the human race is done for. One incident is that a war had raged out in the world. His home town against the empire. As he watched on, the empire destroyed his home town and neighboring towns and villages for any that escaped. His soul became enraged with fury that he chose to hide for a year. After coming out of hiding he went by the name Hadion, a combination of Hyperion(god of Light) and Hades(god of the Underworld). Continuing his journey, he comes across a hooded man telling him of how humanity can be saved by means of two sacred weapons, the Angel Axe and the Demon Dagger. His path then became clear to find the Angel Axe and the Demon Dagger to balance the good and evil in the world. Along his path he is very quiet and keeps to himself. He still ponders why the empire attacked his home town in the first place, but never wants to ask for a strange hidden reason locked within him. Thus why he tends to keep to himeslf and is a quiet fellow.

MT11, although the weakest, was still quite powerful. He carried a hatred (Understandably) for all Llamas, and so tried to kill X_Marks the Ed's Llama when they first meet.

His soul became enraged with fury that he chose to hide for a year. After coming out of hiding he went by the name Hadion, a combination of Hyperion(god of Light) and Hades(god of the Underworld). Continuing his journey, he comes across a hooded man telling him of how humanity can be saved by means of two sacred weapons, the Angel Axe and the Demon Dagger. His path then became clear to find the Angel Axe and the Demon Dagger to balance the good and evil in the world. Along his path he is very quiet and keeps to himself. He still ponders why the empire attacked his home town in the first place, but never wants to ask for a strange hidden reason locked within him. Thus why he tends to keep to himeslf and is a quiet fellow.


Siorry, you have beenb REJECTED. Too much history. I don't think I can mold that into my game without it being about 25mb.

Mmm, What's the difference between Unlocked lv. 1-2, Locked and Secret? I can tell they surpase each other but, with Unlocked, does the lv. mean how far you have to be in the game?

History: MT11 was created by the Demi-God James, as part of the 'Moose Troop'. MT1 to MT10 were the most powerful, carying out James's plans on Charas, since James himself must stay in Heaven. MT11 was the 'messenger', able to go to heaven to tell James of the goings on of Charas. Unfortunately, the other Moosetroop are dead- killed by the evil Llamas. MT11, although the weakest, was still quite powerful. He carried a hatred (Understandably) for all Llamas, and so tried to kill X_Marks the Ed's Llama when they first meet.

Unlocked Char. lv.1- Not very powerful, but a pretty easy quest.

Unlocked Char. lv.2- More powerful, but a harder quest.

Locked Char.- A character you will have access to either by a code, or beating other characters' quests. They are usually better than the unlocked characters. In duel mode, they're pretty good.

Secret char.- Characters only accessable through others' quests by doing something special. Like abonus mission, a game, or a puzzle.

So I'm a locked character, huh? Cool.

And although people are saying that Charas games don't work out, I think we can do pretty well with this. Provided we pull together.

BTW, I take it the quests for locked characters are harder than Lvl. 2, but not as hard as secret, right.

Post by: WarxePB on April 16, 2005, 01:51:49 PM
All of your characters are newbs. If you want to make a true Charas game, you'll need more senior members. But very few of them will join, because they know that this won't turn out.

Faceset

 http://1.forumer.com/uploads/xeterous/post-27-1113668940.png


Charset

I attached it to this post, you can use either the winged version, or the unwinged version, doesn't matter to me. I'm guessing most hand to hand compat characters use swords, so you can have my guy use a spear or his claws to add a bit of variety if you like  :) Whatever works best for your game  ;)

I just wanted to let you know that everything is going according to plan. I will be asking for testers every time I have finished a quest. I also plan on giving all characters in the game and all who wanted to be in the game the cheats to it. I have already developed a system for unlocking the characters, so no problems here. I'm even thinking of adding DarkClown (If he wants to.)

By the way, due to my lack of ideas to loop the adventures together, I have decided to add som stories from the forum game, The Big Emerald 2. A lot happens which ties many of the characters together. And also events that occured in a game I never released to the public called Clover and Clover 2.

Post by: X_marks_the_ed on April 26, 2005, 09:29:59 PM
I some developed some of the plot. Here it goes.


Charas is somehow sperated from cyber earth and lifted into the sky. This causes mass panic and terror. Meanwhile, a band of theives called stealth, see the panic as a great time to kidnap all of the rich and the royal.Because of being lifted into the sky, X_marks_the_ed's plants are dying due to lack of soil. His house falls off of the huge chunck of land known as Charas. He remembers Merry, who is in Lakeshire forest. He asks Slash, who is at the time looking for a job, to find Merry and protect her from the theives. Slash gets help hostage by the thieves in the Lake house.

Merry gets lost in Lakeshire forest looking for mushrooms for a spell. She finds Grandy, who is holding the Big emerald. Both are chased, along with Cuss Master, by 3 thieves.

Meanwhile, CoolZidane is hunting for Hadias, the leader of the band of theives. He gets the aid of NeonLare, but has no luck finding Hadias. He comes across X, who is passed out on the ground in Lakeshire forest, so he joins, hoping to find Merry and Cuss Master. CoolZidane wants to go without X, but Neonlare makes him stay.

That's pretty much all I've got. My fingers are cramped now. (Z)
Title:
Post by: X_marks_the_ed on April 26, 2005, 09:38:57 PM
Here are the rivals of the game. A rival fight is when the character faces his most hated enemy gained in the game.

Alexander vs. DragonBlaze (At some point, I plan to have these two meet. During that time, they are arguing about what is better, Ice or Flame.)

Draven vs. GhostClown (I won't tell you. It'll spoil the ending.)

Dragonium vs. Cuss Master (Dragonium broke Cuss Master's Gameboy advance SP and Cuss Master was being really annoying.)

Asakura Hao vs. the prison guard (Three guesses, stupid.)

I will update this as soon as I assign more rivals.

I'm sorry, but your plot makes no sense at all and, as far as I can, doesn't actually include the main people at Charas such as Alex, Darkfox, Kijuki,  myself, and the other mods at all. It doesn't sound like much of a Charas game... more of a "hey, post if you want to be in my game" game.

I'm tired of everyone insulting my game. Besides, I didn't say there weren't going to be NPCs of those guys. This post is for people who are in the game!!! It's not for insulting my idea. I just want a game with members of charas in it. :yell:  :yell:  :yell: Just cut it out!!!! I know this idea was tried many times before, but I don't care!!! I was running low on ideas for new games. It's supposed to be fun, not perfect!!!

If you don't want feedback, then why are you posting about your game on a public forum?

Post by: Dragonium on April 27, 2005, 07:49:54 PM
Is it me, or is my character's story freakin' stupid?

Sorry dude, but that kinda doesn't keep in with the character. It just seems really naff.

And what the hell is the point of my character breaking some guy's SP, and making an entire freaking quest out of it?
Title:
Post by: X_marks_the_ed on April 27, 2005, 07:58:19 PM
Well, I'm not a very good story teller. How would you do it?

The SP is a small part, although Cuss Master makes a big deal out of it. You accidentaly drop it, and he hates you for that. The main part is that you, him, Merry, and Grandy are lost in the woods. That's all that matters.

Sorry, it's just that I had a loooooooooong day at school, and the last thing I want is another person insulting my game just because hardly any moderators or admins are in it. They aren't thev only ones on charas. We exist, too.

Hey, recruiting is over. What, do you read only the first few posts and then reply? Wait, that's what I do.

Oh well, point is, the recruiting is over. WAY over. And is half of your keyboard broken or something? Some of us don't speak and write instant messenger.

Do you mind if I give a few ideas for my story?

Before I start, I'm attaching Stranger on a Hill, aka Dragonium's Theme. Give credit to Bjorn Lynne.

==============================================

"Why must my life be so full of sadness?"

An orphan, cast out by his family and everyone he ever loved, Draa, later to change his name to Dragonium, was raised by another orphan, Sino. Sino was older than Draa, and he was adept with his sword. Ever since they were young, Sino taught Draa to fight using a heavy, single-handed broadsword. When he was about 7, Draa came to realise that as he fought with the sword, it would get hotter, eventually bursting into flames and making him almost unstoppable. He grew up, as a Fire Warrior.

But when Draa was 19, his friend Sino was killed when a Dragon attacked the farms where he was working. Blinded by his anger, Draa went out, and with his blade, slew the Dragon without being hurt. As luck would have it, a scout from a secret band of DragonSlayers, the Slayers' Circle, was there fighting alongside Draa. A few weeks later, Draa was taken in to the Slayers' Circle. He was given the initiation ceremony, and infused with the Seed of Ages, which is implanted under the skin of the sword-arm and grants the bearer immensely long, unnatural life, and great strength.

He has fought many Dragons over the ages, as have the other members of the Circle. However, they have been killed off slowly over time, and Dragonium is one of the only Slayers left. He bears a grudge against Dragonkind for the loss of his friend, and he speaks the secret language of the DragonSlayers as well as standard english. With everyone he has ever loved, he has been forced to watch as they aged and passed away, as he will not do for many centuries to come. His quest is uncertain, but he knows in his heart that he must find a way to gain vengeance for his sorrow.

==============================================

That's just a rough story - you don't have to stick to it exactly. And what happens after that is completely up to you.

Sweet idea you got there, X. Please accept at least 2 more characters (Solid and me). Here's me:

Name: Weerd Thing
Class: Dimensional Drifter (just a thought)
Age: None; he is a part of existence itself.
Gender: Male
Manner: ½ time he is dark, ½ time he is friendly
Cursing: Does a part of existence itself curse? I think not...
Special: Dimensional travel
Other info: He cannot be destroyed, but can be pacified if he is threatening (for example, frozen in ice).
History: Solitude was with Reality, so it created a friend. Weerd Thing has a known tact for eavesdropping and spying, and he is an invaluable asset to the War of Machinoids (see the Diamond Soul Official Website for more details.). He can be found in dark places, though does not hate the light. He has 1000 years experience from his life, and is a great teacher.

Hey X_marks_the_ed, as I said before, please accept these two entries. Believe me, your game will be different with them (even slightly, I couldn't care less). I hope you will add them. Solid's entry is interesting. I hope the game will be good!

Alright guys, if you're going to tell him that his maps are bad, at least give reasons why besides use of rtp, and give advice on how to make them better. Saying something "bad" is hardly constructive, and it isn't that helpful.

RTP is just a bad idea, its not just because it has the name "RTP" that makes it bad, its because its highly overused. There are thousands of resources avalible on the web, if you just look a bit, you can find a ton of stuff that looks better than the RTP, and ultimatly, it will make your game stand out and be more original, and thus more enjoyable. Second off, the rtp is just designed bad. They don't have nearly as good of quality as other stuff you can find on the web.

Your map design could use a little work as well. All in all, they're too empty. In a map, you need a great variety of tiles to make the map interesting. Part of the reason they seem empty, is because the rtp tilesets do not have a great variety of stuff to use. With any tileset though, you can try this to give the map a greaty variety: instead of using one type of grass for a map, use a couple, for example, add sploches of longer grass, add splotches of darker grass, add sploches of dirt, and use whatever other floor type tiles come in the tileset. Position the tiles wisely as well, basically, add the darker and longer grasses near water, add dirt away from the water. Also add longer grass in areas that would be less traveled or harder to get at, for example, if you have a house one tile away from a brick wall, have normal grass around the front of the house, but add longer grass in between the house and the wall. Another example is having shorter grass next to a dirt path, and then having longer grass a few tiles away from it.

Besides adding a variety of ground tiles, make sure you add a variety of "little stuff". Bushes, rocks, flowers, small trees, ect, can add a lot to a map. Be sure to also take in consideration that nothing in nature is really semetricle (sp?). Basically, don't have any streight lines when it comes to trees, dirt paths, rocks, or rivers.

And finally, always use more than one tile for any given element. If you have a forest, use more than one kind of tree, if your making a lake, use darker water in places, ect.

Well thats all the advice I can give you, good luck!

The prophecy has been accomplished. It was foreseen that the project wouldn't last.
