I got the idea from that new movie called um 30 days of night? Or something, anyways you live in a town called nevermorn/evernight (can't decide which one to choose). People keep dissapearing and the clues point to the next victim and the main character (Matthew Benson-you). Trys to find out whats happening, but his quest takes a turn when it seems hes being targeted. I wont give anymore away, but the game isn't that much fighting and its only 3hours long. Help me with it because I want to make it good!!!

Re: New game idea!
Let me guess the bad guys his father? His son? Secretely the love of his life? Something predicitible and lame?
It's " 30 Days of Night " Not "ummmm 30 days of night " -
Re: New game idea!
So you say the clues point to his next victim and "you." Are you saying "you" are supposed to be the next victim, or are you saying the clues point towards your being responsible for all the disappearances?
The only way I can really help you is by suggesting that you name the main character Matthew Broderick instead, and have a scene with him singing, "I recall, Central Park in fall, how you tore your dress, what a mess, I confess" in the shower.
And somewhere in the game, insert the phrase, "When Cameron was in Egypt's land, let my Cameron go."
And then make a hidden "easter egg" NPC of John Bender.
But to really throw people off, make the game be set in 1997.
Anyway, sounds interesting, actually. And if you do have a cliche'd "he is your father" thing, you could always do what I did in Series 1, and....
*** SPOILERS ***
draw attention to the cliche by making the ending, or in my case, ONE of the hidden endings paraphrase the famous, "Luke, I am your father." "That's not true. That's impossible!" "Search your feelings, boy. You KNOW it to be true," scene.
*** END SPOILERS ***
I can't believe I just put spoiler tags around information contained in a game I made.
Also, it's the hardest ending in the game to obtain, but there's also a lesbian "love" ending.
So, yeah. Sounds like it holds promise. Piece of advice, though. Type EVERYTHING you want in the game into a spell checker, taking proper care with punctuation and grammar, and then transcribe it into your game. Also, if you want people here to be interested in your game, it might also be worth putting your post through the selfsame spell check/grammar/punctuation review. If your "official" "Here's my game idea" thread looks like yours does, it'll most likely turn a bunch of people off from even caring about it, because they (we) will be under the impression that the entire game will read like that, and to most people here, that's not their idea of a good time.
Unless you're Tjoris. Then you can get away with it.Comment

Re: New game idea!
Whaddya mean?! As long as there's no explicit content or swearing, I'm happy. But considering what you've done in the playground, I'm guessing there just might be.Comment

Re: New game idea!
By inspired you mean you changed a few names and stole the idea completely, right?Comment

Re: New game idea!
I prefer to think of it as an homage. I only used that scene from Star Wars, not the plot of the entire movie.
Unless you're talking to GRIMS.
Also, Raven, no, the game is not crude in the slightest bit. I think I swear a bit, but basically damn and hell. And even the lesbian thing would be Free Forum material. For the most part, my "persona" at the Pav is not really reflected in the games I make, except for some hidden material in A Series Aside that gets a bit raunchy.Comment

Re: New game idea!
Don't let people's criticism stop you from doing it. I think it's a bad idea myself, but I'm not the be all and end all of what's good and what's not. If the criticism isn't constructive, don't listen to it.Comment

Re: New game idea!
You haven't really said enough about the game for me to give any suggestions. Sounds like a mystery adventure game more than a traditional RPG.I want that Mulan McNugget sauce, Morty!Comment
