lonequeso 1,921 Posted August 31, 2015 When I was kid, there was this really cool SNES game I played. So cool that I cannot remember the name :/ The game itself was fun, but there's one aspect in particular that was really unique. It's probably been done again since, but I've never seen it. Monster races! Pretty much what it sounds like. Like a horse race, but with monsters! It was super simple, and really cool. The track was just a straight line divided into five (I think) sections. Five different monsters participated, all with different odds. You'd get gold on the monster of your choosing, and you watch them go! A couple games have done similar things. The dog races in Legend of Zelda, chocobo races in Final Fantasy. I don't remember one quite like this. I'm thinking of using that in my game. I'm actually thinking of putting in a full-fledged casino, but that may be a pipe dream. Monster Races. Good idea or stupid one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Vectra 414 Posted August 31, 2015 I like it. Gives the player the choice of making a decision dat is somewhat unique. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HumanNinja 144 Posted August 31, 2015 How do you plan on implementing this idea of monster races? Script? Or event system? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lonequeso 1,921 Posted August 31, 2015 Assuming I do, mostly events. A script will be needed to make custom movement speeds. Normal, 2x, 4x, aren't going to cut it. Right now it's a thought experiment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
