Title: A Few Game Ideas I've thrown around.
Post by: GloopMaster on November 16, 2011, 09:05:10 PM
Alright, I've given some though to this, and came up with a few ideas.

This one in particular is the only one I have enough stuff to do it. RPGMkr2003.

There is no playability to it yet, but I've already gotten the story together.

Story:
[spoiler]
Sorry, but I'm doing this off the top of my head, so it might not be the exact words that will be in the readme. It is the same meaning though.

"When all light is blackened, a hidden warrior will bring pure light once more..." Such were the words of the Oracle, and so it shall be.

One day, scientists in the Drakaar empire found out how to make robots to do almost everything. Everyone already feared the Drakaar, as well as the Emperor. He has been known to start wars on whims.

However, nothing could compare to the fear caused by the necromantic (please excuse me, I don't remember the name... will edit asap). They have made golems from the bodies of great warriors and ghosts of their souls. All of the resurrected people were stripped of free will, and became the ultimate slave labor force.

Right around here is where the game starts. I don't wanna spoil this part.
[/spoiler]

There will be a logbook that will record your quests, bestiary info, etc. The bestiary was actually the easiest part, contrary to popular belief. The battle system will be the default one.

Hmmmm! You've not really given us much to work with here :P

Not really sure what the game's about. You might wanna try revising the story line
a little bit to create something a little more original. It can suck a little bit at first when
people are giving you criticism, but it makes you work harder. Try and wow us with
some screenshots or some cool concepts. :D

Reading the story, I summarized it as:

Darkness, light, zombies, slave labor. Correct? Sounds like the old black n' white. I suggest digging a bit deeper than the ol' b&w and oracles foretelling a hero of light.

@Darkfox: No zombies, golems. Zombies are the exact form of the dead person (give or take a few body parts :P), golems are an amalgation of the bodies used, but the rest was actually accurate. The story would have been deep, much more than you made it sound...

EXCEPT MY RM2003 DIED! IT DELETED ALLLLLLL MY GAMES!!!!!!!!

So, i'm gonna make it 2000, and change it up a bit. Male hero, no Oracle (the Oracle had no real meaning, it just made it so that it was known as important stuff.)

@zuhane: Bestiary was cool idea, no? If not, the Logbook (Notebook in the 2000 version) can have plenty other cool features. Just post your ideas!

The story line would have been VERY original, just not at the beginning apparently. Or at least, I might not have noticed i was using other stories that exist...

How do you take screenshots in RPGMkr2000?

So far as I can tell, you've made two threads for one game... Which thread do you want to post all your game info on? Let me know and I'll move the other one to the Junk bin.

Please only post one thread per game.
