STORMCROW'S PROFILE

>look StormCrow

You see not a bird but an American lady who likes other ladies. Oscillates between shy as a mouse and babbling violently, seemingly at random.

I like badasses. I like babes. I like badass babes the best. Okay...actually I like doggoes the very best, but I aspire to make games about badass babes is my point.

I use music from bands and artists in the free games I make: the frustrated filmmaker in me is very enamored of scoring scenes with rock'n'roll soundtracks Scorcese or Tarantino style. In addition to being a time honored tradition in cinema, this has a history in AAA videoogames as well (for a really great use of it, see Bioshock: Infinite). If I was a millionaire, I'd totally license these songs so I could actually use them legally.

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?

My PS3 has, it would seem, bricked itself. One moment it was fine, the next moment it started to incessantly freeze every time I tried to log in.

My sixty hour FF8 save and the 60 hours of my life it represents are gone, and I am pretty sure I will never find out how that game ends, at least by playing it, because no way do I have the patience to go through that experience a third time (don't get me wrong, it's not a bad game at all). Guess that's what I deserve for saying "oh, I'll beat this later". The 12 hours into FFVI (PS1 Final Fantasy anthology disc, if you were curious) save I had is less of an issue. If I look around online, someone should probably have a save-state around the point where I left off so I should be able to pick the game back up in an emulator. I hope.

I might try to take my PS3 to a local shop and see if anything is recoverable when I get a chance, but I'm less hopeful about that.

Killing Nazis

Warhammer Orcs/Orks

Also I'm moving this to Welp because I'm not seeing how any non-welpy discussion can come out of this.

lol I literally thought I put this in Welp in the first place, thanks.

A crab with a butter knife.

Like, this is a very silly thread granted, and I expect and invite ridiculous replies, but I'm just going to specify exactly one rule, which is that whatever you pick has to be, by some stretch of the imagination, CAPABLE of slaughtering scores of armed Nazis. So while it's a funny answer, "Kentona" probably wouldn't qualify.

i'm very disappointed that none of you have said the only correct answer

which is danny devito

See this answer on the other hand while still stupendously ridiculous qualifies because we have no idea what kind of loadout Danny DeVito is packing, maybe he's got an M16 with an underbarrel launcher and a bandoleer of frag grenades. Also open ended as to which if any character Danny DeVito played in a movie we're talking about. Personally, I'd like to see a match-up of The Penguin vs. Nazi Germany, and while it's a sitcom...I definitely wouldn't want to underestimate or get on the wrong side of Frank from Always Sunny.

Can we combine some? Because Sailor Moon riding an adult T-Rex who has the power to defeat goes in one punch, sounds amazing.

You can combine as many as you want but not One Punch Man. He is too OP and can't stack with anything else (I am totally making up the rules as I go along). But Sailor Moon riding an adult T-Rex through the crimson swathes and broken bodies of Nazi hordes is totally cool.

Kung Fury: The Movie: The Game?

That should totally be your next project.

Jackie Chan

I initially somehow read this as "Jesus Christ" (which would also have been a good answer if we assume as we reasonably might that he's a 20th level Favored Soul), I wonder what that says about me. For anyone who is a D&D nerd but not enough to know wtf I'm talking about, Favored Soul was a spontaneous divine caster in 3.5.

Jackie Chan is also a good answer. (I'd probably rather design a game where you massacre Nazis as Jet Li but I loves me some gun fu.)

Here are my top choices:

- The Blues Brothers (gameplay would resemble the Elite Beat Agents)
- Colonel Sanders
- Fonzie
- SSJ3 Dumbledore
- Mr. Magoo (bullet hell game)
- Batman riding on Godzilla
- Robocop Teamed Up with Dracula (2-player coop)
- Giant Gundam versions of the Ghostbusters
- Inspector Gadget
- Xena: Warrior Princess
- Six hundred kindergarteners
- Monty Python's Black Knight (gameplay would resemble QWOP)

Blues Brothers is a fucking GREAT answer. I feel like Batman can't do much of his Batman shtick if he's riding Godzilla. Do the six hundred kindergardeners have knives?

Best of Liberty:

- a baby slime who grows bigger as they absorb the Nazis and then slowly morphs into Nazi slime because you are what you eat. A game with a message! :O

Okay, this is definitely the game I most want to see made so far.

author=Liberty
- Artist!Hitler who came from an alternate dimension where he became a famous artist and is horrified by what his alternate self has done

Honestly I think that would make a better novel or movie than a game. But it's a great idea.

author=Liberty
- a ratking made up of kindergardeners

Okay, UNFORTUNATELY for me I have a vivid imagination and HOLY SHIT is that pure concentrated nightmare fuel. Like that is more horrifying than any monster in any Silent Hill game.

author=Liberty
- a mouse. It'd play like a goldberg machine where you have to set elaborate traps to kill them off one by one.

So...basically the movie Mouse Hunt but R-rated and with Nazis?

author=Liberty
- Magneto. yup

...goddamn I would so play the shit out of this game if it were real.

Best of Pianotm:

-Luke Skywalker, Mara Jade Skywalker, and Ahsoka Tano.

-Wolverine, X-23, and Deadpool.
-The main characters of Final Fantasy VII, VIII, or X. Or all three together, but that might wreck the character dynamic.
-Ash, Misty, and Brock have to team up with Team Rocket.
-The Terminator goes back in time to Nazi Germany to kill an ancestor of John Connor, but the Predator is also hunting in Normandy.
-Alita (Battle Angel Alita/Gunnm)
-Voltron Force.
-My player character from Fallout: New Vegas. WITH her ranger armor and full control of all of Mr. House's resources.

Cloud, Tifa, Barrett et al. vs. Nazi Germany yes please. Primarily because BARRETT. He could teach them the lesson about the "inferior negro race" they failed to learn at the Olympics. Possibly with a giant fuck-off satellite laser (best Limit Break ever).

-The Terminator goes back in time to Nazi Germany to kill an ancestor of John Connor, but the Predator is also hunting in Normandy.

This might be the first recorded instance of someone going back in time to Nazi Germany to kill anyone but Adolf Hitler!

Dracula/Simon Belmont/Buffy/Any other vamp are a good choice.

I happen to be rewatching the Castlevania anime on Netflix...based purely on that I'd go with Dracula over Belmont just because while he is a BAMF, I don't think Simon Belmont really has an efficient means of dealing with eight stormtroopers opening up on him with MP40s. Dracula on the other hand...is fucking Dracula. Also must mention that Alucard from Hellsing (who is also obviously Dracula lol) is the most OP vampire of all time.

Anyway, I've got three more of my own to throw into the mix:
* Katamarii Damashii (sp?) or whatever the fuck you control in Katamarii Damashii. Just roll up the Nazis and their tanks and artillery into a big Nazi ball.
* Tetsuo from Akira.
* Rick and Morty

Liberty is winning the thread so far because I would throw down $59.99 USD to buy either Blob Eats Nazis or Magneto Avenges The Holocaust if they were real games I could buy.

Help me design a rappelling minigame!

So...it's worth mentioning they're rappelling down the side of a dragon wizard's castle (man-made, in good repair), not a rock wall or crumbling ruins. There could totally be windows and balconies, though. (This is for Road To Paradise: The Staircase Episode 2 which will be commercial and will only exist if the first episodes of Staircase and/or Dragon sell enough copies.)

Also probably worth mentioning that them shooting guards with silenced firearms or whatever as they make their way down the building is totally a thing that could go in the minigame. (They are from Earth, RTP-land has taken one of their friends prisoner, and so they are outfitted and inclined to savagely punch RTP land right in the dick to get him back.)

I'd suggest that you don't have a failure condition, rather a positive reward condition; ie they miss treasure if they are too slow, miss too many presses, etc. If you go with piano's idea, perhaps each character gets their own piece of equipment if you get them down fast enough, and miss out if you don't.

Since it's a forced scene at the start of a chapter, having a game over condition for a minigame doesn't seem very nice.

Yeah, you are most probably right, but I'm of two minds about this.

Like, when I think about video game minigames ending in game overs, it's kind of hit and miss. Just two random off the top of my head examples. The car minigame in ABL...I actually don't recall for sure if there was an option to retry or bypass it, but I do remember trying it until I finally didn't fail it and enjoying the challenge.

Like I think...generally...easy minigame + game over if you lose is probably okay. But on the other end of the spectrum like that bullshit sword-fight with the Ruby Dragon in FF8...gah, FUCK that shit completely. (First time around I chose the vaguely worded "give in" option, mistakenly thinking they were sane and that would bypass the minigame, instead of it leading to a fucking game over and me losing at least an hour of progress.)

Super beautiful. I also desperately want to know how to get that chest underwater.

Guess I will. I wish this place weren't so quiet. I don't mind the quiet in and of itself at all, just when it forces me to crawl out of my comfort hole to buy teh arts...

Playtesters Needed!

pointless flusterment
Boy am I bad at basic human communication. When I said "a couple" I was assuming that Kumada AND JustAShyDoge would each be on board (please excuse my presumption, actually). But anyway, I meant to say, I wanted two in addition to them (again, sorry) that is to say four, the magic number is four playtesters. I mean, I'll get the game out with less sure but it won't be as polished.

Cate Quest

The Story
In short, this game is all about a Cat trying to go home, back to his safe, comfortable home. Yes, that's all, I kid you not.

You play as Cate, a typical, normal, average, easily seen cat living in a safe house with a dog that constantly tease and bully you. However, everything changed the day when Cate decided to be brave and head out to venture to the outside world for the first time.

-Classes! Jobs! Total of 10.
-Party members, friends. 10 of them, each with their own classes.
-7 dungeon each with their own unique annoyances features.

this site now has, at the minimum:
* LOBSTER SAGA COLLECTION (containing within it Lobster Quest)
* 2018: A DOGE ODYSSEY i.e. DOGE SAGA
* CATE QUEST

I wonder how many more "gemes" are on site.

Faxanadog/Lobster Quest Deluxe: the Lobster Saga Collection!

i just stumbled upon Lobster Saga Collection > Lobster Questat 6:10AM while stoned out of my mind. it is rare but sometimes works in this medium, RPG Maker, can truly achieve the status of high art. Bravissimo!

Help me design a rappelling minigame!

Okay, yes, that's good....I can work with that....Galv's Variable Instance Guages and there was a timed button press script I had somewhere....

Part of what was stumping me was that I wasn't sure if I wanted there to be a failure condition (game over or otherwise). I'm still not completely sure but I'm leaning towards no.

Killing Nazis

Excuse plot requires/allows you to kill Nazis in great quantity and without a shred of mercy, but instead of one of the traditional Nazi-killers of video game history (i,e, BJ Blazkowicz, WWII Soldiers, WWII Spies, or I don't know, BloodRayne?) the premise is that you are going on a Nazi-killing spree as x.

Where x is the game you most want to design, what is x?
