Title: (Challenge) Contamination (Concept Idea not an actual level)
Post by: Strange Darkness on March 21, 2009, 08:28:11
Yes, yes i know im working on the scavenger series but this just poped into my mind and i thought, well i might as well start a little bit and put my idea on the forum. (So i wont just forget when im making the SS  XD)

This is my idea:

In the future a virus breaks out
It can kill within  24 hours
It has symptons such as coughing, headaches and
seeing things that are not there
and then... eventually you start to bleed from the mouth or your eyes
and then fall over dead (just a bit horrific)
doctors dont know what it is and cant create a cure
so what will the public do...?
panic and live in fear or riots and crime will break out
but unfortunately you have the virus
you have 24 hours
what would you do?

It is gonna be set out as if you reading a book about a knytt (eg there will be sign a outside a door [she goes up to the door and wonders if she should enter])

I might put up teaser pictures later  :P2

So tell me your thoughts  :D

*SPECIAL NOTE* This is a note to these people Budja (Tileset Warzone), Elder ( Town), AlmightyZenTaco (That city tileset) The Community (The dumpyard), Didriking (Sakura) due to the fact that the tileset editor can only allow two tileset at a time, i want to take the things i need out of your tilesets and put them in a super tileset(i will credit you and i will not say that i made the super tileset) so im asking for your permission.

Sounds like a very interesting idea. Reminds me a bit of The Stand.

No more polls huh?  :huh: well thats new

here i will describe each story line to help people  C)p

Conspiracy:
This virus seemed to come out of now. It all seemed to start when those strange helicopters petrolled over the city. And when all those people mysterteriously dissapered. All those protestors say that the goverment has done this, but did they...

Get out of tha city:
Maybe if i can get out the virus will stop. Maybe i can find a doctor to help us. Maybe i can find the source. Maybe not...

Roam around and find stuff:
Well this is your average knytt story. Find powerups and keys to allow you to a certain place to finish the game

In this case: Get out of tha city It redmins me to "Im a legend" somehow  X).

I'll cast a vote for a conspiracy, love that kinda stories  X)

All three! Depending on the choices you make and the people you talk to!  :D

What you could do is give the player the choice provide them with a clue to the conspiracy that allows them to explore and find more details etc. etc. (maybe a parking lot meeting but thats cliche :P2) give the player a hint about a bunker thats safe from the virus (maybe?) and give the player a map outta the city XD

I think this would be an epic level :P2

I'm leaning 4/7 get outta the city and 3/7 conspiracy

Multiple Choice level... i like the sound of that. at the very start you could choose..... Makes everyone happy.
Well just saying this now, i really want to continue to make this level but i will need people to be patient with me, because this might take a while  C)p
Title: Re: (Challenge) Contamination (Concept Idea)
Post by: Purple Pineapple on March 25, 2009, 16:22:44
Would said multiple choice level have the same map for 'conspiracy' and 'roam around and find stuff?'
Title: Re: (Challenge) Contamination (Concept Idea)
Post by: Emeraldfire7 on March 25, 2009, 21:13:46
what i meant was to not give the player a choice but give them three all on the same map so the player could either explore find the way out or fix the infection with the ability to switch at any time :P2
Title: Re: (Challenge) Contamination (Concept Idea)
Post by: Purple Pineapple on March 26, 2009, 01:52:46
Same ending, three win tiles?

Just one thing: which ending would be default. KS 1.2.1 doesn't like extra endings for me.
Title: Re: (Challenge) Contamination (Concept Idea)
Post by: Strange Darkness on March 26, 2009, 09:44:21
Well Emeraldfire that makes more sense  XD

The defult win will probably get out of the city because that might be the easyest  :/

Ill think about it  C)p

Oh as i do have tilesets for this level, if anyone has made a city/town tileset or knows where i can get one could you please tell me? Because i might need more  :P2
Thanks

Haesnic town or whatever?

Haesnic town or whatever?

Hanesatic Town, by Rickard Andersson. (Don't mind the image name, it's just that the only copy I had was already in a level.)
