MALADROITHIM'S PROFILE

So I listened to this and holy shit man you have gone soo Hollywood it isn't even funny. Good job overall I guess but I liked your catchy, jazz, RPG music a lot more. Really this is good music though. I'm surprised that you stayed within one key area all the time because usually you are all about HEY GUYS WE NEED JAZZ CHORDS (which is fine by me). But don't take this the wrong way because we're splitting hairs between I like this and I really liked your other music a lot.

Sounds like you got a decent sampler too. What are you using in this? I remember a year or two ago you were pretty down about not having a decent sampler.

So A+ will buy again.

ALSO I AM STEALING IT AND PUTTING IT INTO MY GAME

That's okay because Enker plans on using Rm2k :)

Rm2k is even MORE stupid :-*

I really like the idea of making camp in certain areas across longer dungeons - though saving may be tricky as any saved games within a dungeon would not be carried across to the next release (the home hub was going to be the only official save area in the game, and fixed location in all releases in order to provide consistancy in the 'save here and simply move the file across between releases' tack.) Perhaps we could look at some dungeon-only items that crop up and are dropped at the end of each dungeon, such as a dungeon map, compass, special keys, a ring (such as seen in the Tales Of series to solve puzzles, etc) that are recurring and add some consistancy to levels.

I'm quite taken plot-wise with the suggestion of a world covered in darkness and there only being one point where the sun shines - and now it is unexpectedly pulling back to reveal new areas. It's more original than the mist version and adds some interesting questions to the overall state of the world. Especially since the hero is given a choice between light and dark at the start of the game to decide which areas he is stronger/weaker in depending on the mode of the dungeon (and certain puzzles).

If we give it until monday morning for game plot premise and name suggestions to be made in this thread and then start settling ideas, we'll be able to push ahead after that point. So come on people, give us what you've got ;)

I hate everything about this project because it is made in an outmoded and illegal game design environment but:

I have an idea to flavor your premise.

The planet the game takes place on was previously tidally locked to the sun. This causes the sun to shine only on one half of the planet with only a small portion of it habitable due to the dark part being ridiculously cold and also you know dark (on bodies like our moon, for example, shadows can be thousands of degrees colder than areas that the light touches). Mysteriously one day the planet starts rotating again so now exploration of the dark side of the planet is possible. You start on the warm pole of the planet where people have always lived. The journey starts on the fringes of what was previously the dark area (the "dusk" area) and make your way to the other side of the planet. On the exact opposite pole lies the climax of the game.

This premise gives you perfect license to make all sorts of alien, exotic environments. It is provides a unique, scientific explanation for a premise that is otherwise fairly impractical.

But do whatever you want guys Rm2k3 is stupid :(

THIS MUSIC IS NOT STUPID AND IT DOES NOT SUCK









Actually I haven't listened to it because I am at work! However I will 100% check it out later because your music is pretty rad (friends plz).

THE ONLY DOWNSIDE TO THIS RECIPE IS THAT DEMONDESTINY IS INVOLVED






Anyway, that recipe seems like it would be extremely sweet. Like 1/3 of the volume of raw ingredients is sugar? I just can't handle sweets on that scale anymore man but it's way cool that you have a genuine interest in cooking.
