BILLWILLIAMS'S PROFILE

I'm going to make tardis look like a mean ol grouch and say that the writing could use a lot of work. I'm not sure where you are going with the whole "you are not allowed to swear! el oh el!" maybe you should expand on the dark humor thing where innocent people and heroic characters are completely disregarded kinda like in Dungeon Keeper.

Trying to make the Imp sound like a know-it-all douchebag. Keep in mind that everything is still up in the air here and that I've done more work on this thread than on the actual game at this point.

Actually I don't see anyway to have game starring really Evil characters that doesn't have a significant amount of humor in it to soften the blow. A serious game about murdering, stealing and burning might be gritty, realistic and innovative but it wouldn't be terribly fun.

Fun is the whole point of making a game so I'll have put a great deal of thought as to how everything fits together and exactly what lines I can't cross.

Recently I've been trying to come up a short newbish project that could be completed in a month or two.

This is what I've come up with...

Working Title: Skelepimp's Revenge. or The Tables Turn.

Platform: R2k3 (I have vx but I'm still not comfortable with it.)

Basic concept: Sort of a reverse dungeon crawl; Instead of having a group of heroes invade a monster lair and start killing and looting. A group of evil adventurers march into a city full of 'level one adventurers just waiting around to get their ass kicked' and start the mayham. They're after a specific treasure which I'll come up with a name for later.

Playing time: 1-2 hours most of which will be in battles. Trying to keep everything as short and simple as possible.

Characters:
Skelepimp: The undead knight from RTP, with as much attitude and sarcasm as I can cram into him.
Impy: A frost imp that seems to way too cheerful, questions everything.
Roan: A drow rogue up to even less good than usual.
Krog: A Half-Ogre goon. Big stupid, likes to smash things. Other characters refer to him as Meatshield.on multiple occasions.

Enemies:
Most of noncombatants have fled form the town and the townsfolk are ready for trouble, just not this kind of trouble. There are also a lot of adventurers and would be heroes who will put up a real fight.

Opening cut scene: Just to give you an idea of what sort of game this would be.

Alex shows up center screen.
Alex: Hi I'm Alex and this is my RTP adventure.
Skelepimp walks up to Alex and strikes him down.
Skelepimp: Wrong!!! I'm Skelepimp and this is MY RTP adventure. Mutherf*ckers!!!
Impy: Was that really necessary?
Skelepimp: Yes I found him annoying so I killed him. That's all the excuse I need.
Impy: No I mean the swear at the end. It wasn't really that necessary.
Skelepimp: Oh come on what is the point in being evil if you can't say f*ck every five seconds.
Roan: Swearing like that doesn't make you more evil. It just makes you sound like a sixteen year old anime fan.
Skelepimp: Hey most of the people who would play this game are sixteen year old anime fans.
Krog: Krog like the part where you smash in face.
Skelepimp: Ah finally some moral support.
