Recruitment Note: I am NOT looking to recruit a Writer, this will not change at any point. This game is non-commercial. RequiredPurpose:Set in the universe known as Farlisan the player takes on the role of universally-known, bloodthirsty and murderous raider Galiseir as he attempts to shape the universe around his vision.Players must solve puzzles and successfully complete choice-based fight scenarios among other things to advance to the next Fear Level, the fear level is basically the representation of Reputation - The higher it is the more feared the Protagonist becomes across the universe, players will be taken to various locations such as: Spaceships, City-Scapes, Asteroids, Alternate Dimensions, Forest Worlds and Sea Worlds to name some.As the Protagonist becomes more feared the missions available become more demanding, some missions are dependent on Fear Level while others require Story Items - Some Story Items can only be acquired through secret missions and locations, some missions require both or certain other conditions to be met first.Some missions can only be unlocked by acquiring a certain amount of 'UC', the game currency.The ending the player will get is dependent upon what choices the player made, what Fear Level they ended with or how much 'UC' they collected - Secret endings are an exception to this.Further information will be provided when required.

magic2345 252 Posted April 14, 2013 Wow this seems really interesting, fighting by text, huh....Do you employ the save anywhere feature? Like in visual novels? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Dark Influence 251 Posted April 14, 2013 Seeing how there are no actual battles I'm going to put down events which tell the players when it's a good time to save, usually before a text event or while it's happening - Various choices in this game can cause a game over as you've no doubt seen in many visual novels.

Cruxis_Angel 4 Posted April 14, 2013 (edited) Sounds promising.=3 I like the idea you have different endings depending on your choices. I also love the visual novel/Select your adventure genre. XD Does this have a stat system where certain stats increase or decrease depending on your choices? Edited April 14, 2013 by Cruxis_Angel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+ Dark Influence 251 Posted April 14, 2013 No stats, already too much work to deal with in this project - Gonna be quite a large number of locations to map and tons of text and choices to add, not to mention all the variables, switches and conditional branches to put in.
