Organization Misfits VI

Well though sometimes the plot is a bit lacking, that can be fixed with a little planning. The overall idea sometimes needs revision but there are little details that can be put to use. Such as one dream that never really explained the purpose of the key, but my character had found two keys, to keep trust with their overseer and, you know, not be killed by them, they gave one key up. The other however they kept secret and hidden.
The key itself wasn't revisited which I think can be put to use at least in that aspect. A game where there are a lot of minor things that either have no use or are a key for somewhere far ahead. usually games give you a key, you use it, get anther two, use them, go a while, fidn another key to use right away. brainstorming on the use of the key itself is the start of possible plot.
I have many little things like that that can be twisted and beaten into submission for easy use in a game.

More so though are the characters and areas visited in the dreams. Even the bleakest of places are very vivid, they're too good to be true but they seem almost more real than reality. I don't really have any way to describe it, just the colours used, the detail in everything.... it's beautiful. Somehow even a large city is able to be made grand.
Though it's the places that don't even resemble reality that I love to go to most.
I'm not a very good scenery artist so I only have one and a half examples, but I plan to draw more.

Not the utmost best skill when comapred to other works people have done, but as good as I could muster for these two:

Echos of dripping water, rushing water, and the simple sound of water splashing on rock. The path is lit by glowing crystals. As beautiful as it is it gives off the feeling of loneliness and sadness.
This one actually wasn't in a dream itself but it's a good example.

Half done, this was in a dream though it's incredibly hard to represent. Very brown feeling, tan coloured rock was used on the pathway by ancient people. Below is a pit so deep you can't tell if there is a bottom or not, above is similar. The pit is cylinder shaped.
Despite that, and the cracked condition of the path, it doesn't feel unsafe. Below two rings of more ancient writing is swirling about. In the center of this pit is a circular platform, connected to tunnels to various places via three pathways including the one you're standing on.
The platform itself holds a throne on which the bones of an old king sit, guarded by a family or raccoons.
I think I'm gonna scrap my pencil drawign and do another digital art for it. I don't liek the pencil one anymore.

 

Hmm, thats rather interesting. I like your first drawing btw.

 

Omg Kika <3 That's a huge imagination you have. It's beautiful.

 

Took the words right out of my mouth.

 

Well it's partly my dreams, not just me, even though it kinda still is... well if that makes any sense anyway. Thank you though.

If I get time to do scenery again, next I'll probably draw something pretty green and floral-ish.

 

That will be interesting. I would love to see it.

 

Actually I drew it out partly, though it's missing a few things.

A bit messy, but that's cause it's a sketch.
It's also shrunk down in size.

We went under a walking bridge type thing made out of brick and cobblestone. There was a hole in the roof lettign sun in, and a bigger hole in the floor. Plants with large heart shaped leaves covered the upper part of the hole, and a foot deeper there where colourful flower peeking out. Moss clung to the cracks in the walls, and in some parts more flowers grew out of it.
There's supposed to be giant blue fist-sized ants.... but, you know, it looks better without those hiding under the leaves.
They almost bit one of my party members because they where stupid enough to poke around the hole without looking.

 

It looks good so far.

I'm sorry, I know that stuff was important but... fist-sized blue ants?

 

Yes, as in rather large ants that happen to be blue.
If you're questioning that you don't even wanna know some of the other far crazier stuff that's just chilling in my dreams.

 

I'm curious, tell me more.

 

I-I'm sorry. I have no excuse, I haven't been on the internet in forever.

Ah well it's hard to say what exactly, because it obviously differs each dream. The monster concepts are rather odd at times, or the characters themselves.

Actually just recently I had an amazing dream, that I really wish could have been real~
A MMO, similar to Drakengard because of the aerial combat, Spyro due to limited time power ups (Spyro 2 and up, the two pillars you go through), Shin Megami Tensei for lovely spells and monster concepts, an in game mic system to talk with friends, the combat was simply amazing and gets you more involved than spamming x all day e'rry day. The way the monsters react to your attacks and spells is also really cool.
Say you send off a AOE level 5 spell, yes? If there is a weak monster, even a starter area monster, that is caught in it but hit at the very edge and survives? It will send another level 5 spell back at you differing in element based on the monster itself.
The combat itself consists of cueing up attacks/spells, and as the character animation goes into preforming what you told it to, QTEs pop up that you must do.
As an example, I had a dragon pact partner, for one of the aerial to ground skills to start off the move I had to hold L and R then tap triangle. To safely execute to after it hits, I had to tap L and R.
I kinda like this because if you are doing high level skill or attack, you can't just hit and expect there not to be possible ways of hurting yourself, so the second stage is that idea and you having to pull out of it.

The game itself seemed pretty cult-hit-ish. so no death of the game due to, quite frankly, morons.

 

Oh wow, this is still alive?

 

This thread is a bit older than I've been on kh-vids for, we don't die, we just get slow times.

 

It's okay. I understand that you had things to do.

That game sounds actually rather fun. Kika, have you ever consider getting to the video game business? Seriously, you have quite the imagination.

It will live as long as I still breath!

 

Well I am but I'm not even the writier or idea/concept brewer.
I basically do everything BUT writing and programming, it's sort of sad.

Quoted for truth, and I second this statement.

 

Would you care for a hug?


Truthiness!

 

Well I'm not particularly heart broken, it's just the writer can't do **** besides write but she wants the game out ASAP when I really don't feel like working all that much. Her constant badgering is actually a turnoff for working on it.
Still, I would like to see it done, it's a good game for our first.

I would like to kidnap our programmer for a few side projects of my own though...

 

Hmm, tell me when its out. I'd like to play it.

... *sigh* ...I'm sorry for this but... BOW-CHICKA-BOW-WOW!

 

We have a demo, I may have linked it here already.

No, just no. Ralph plz go.

 

Okay. What are you guys gonna do once its finished?

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
