Title: [Idea] A Journey Through Death
Post by: StaticRomantic on April 10, 2009, 09:07:10
So I'm having this idea...
The plotline of this would involve Juni (or some character of the like) at her deathbed, and upon her death, her life flashes before her eyes. The level would progress through Juni's memories (a la Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), depicting her ever progressing and maturing thoughts from a child to a grown being. Her life's ups and down, her best friends, worst enemies, and acquaintances all clearly (or vaguely?) represented.
I believe this could be very poetic, emotional, and full of potential. KS begs for deep storytelling.  :^^: Not that I'm saying that hasn't been the case previously.
But this is currently just an idea... any thoughts, tileset recommendations, tips, etc would be much appreciated.
Will post ideas and changes as they come along.

I like the sound of this.
Sounds quite tricky to perform too. But it would be really cool.
Reminds me slighly of scarlet tears.
Maybe playing that level will give you ideas for this one?

But other than that, no ideas. Though, sounds cool.
I like.

Hasn't goog once made some kind of "flashback"-ish level?
..that wouldn't mean you couldn't, I just thought I remembered a vaguely similar idea. :)

Yes he has, it was called "A Flash". I think the only real difference between this and goog's level is that in AF she was already dead.
