What if....

I made a TLOK game? What kind of game would it be?

Currently I'm playing "Link to the Past" again, and I was kinda thinking that TLOK what fit that style pretty good. It would have more attacks and won't have the items, though. I'd also probably give you the option to have up to four people out in the field at once, kind of like Four Sword Adventures. It would also be the easiest game to program because I wouldn't need to programing any real jumping, and jumping is always hard to program.

What do you guys think it would be? How does that idea even work?

Subject: Re: What if.... Tue Apr 21, 2009 11:04 pm

No.

1º I'm this forum's coder.... I don't do sprite animations, you don't do make games. Got'it?

2º I dislike the idea because it's too soon a game... the story is still too.. virgin.. to be enough for a game...
If you wished, you could make one... but it will be like those crappy konamie's game of different animes.

3º The good thing about the legend of zelda is it's restricted gameplay... if you add a lot of stuff, it'll get bigger and bigger, and easier and easier... therefore, crappy.

If you create a game of TLOK, you should rethink the whole engine...

Nac's advice: don't make it NOW.

Subject: Re: What if.... Tue Apr 21, 2009 11:07 pm

If I were to make it NOW, I'd just get the basics of the engine done. I wouldn't release the game till the series was over.

Then why doi you create this topic now? Sweat Drop

...

Yeah, I like the idea of a game... but not until we've a solid story...
Besides, I don't really like the zelda-ish engine idea...

Subject: Re: What if.... Tue Apr 21, 2009 11:19 pm

Then what kind of game would you suggest?

Subject: Re: What if.... Wed Apr 22, 2009 12:44 am

You need more than just one, you need multiple brands:

TLOK RPG

TLOK Fighting Game

TLOK Shooter(Korah and them Blizzard Balls eh)

You know...The multiple ones.

...TLOK Platformer.

Never said it had to use all of the characters.

Perhaps you could release the RPG in chapter-based installments, make sequels to the fighting game that include a few more characters at a time(start small, you may be able to get away with using just 6 people in the first and going from there.)

...TLOK Platformer.

So... you are kind of saying that we should make a "Hack" like phenom? scratch

...

I like it... but it's just TOO soon for that...
first, let's finish this serie, then let's get on other stuff.

Subject: Re: What if.... Wed Apr 22, 2009 5:29 pm

What? No. I'm saying just start small, but make sure to get as many genres as possible.

I have to agree with Nac on this.

Lets do this later.

and I have a cool engine we (could) try using.

Hack started as a nobel. It was a book, and ti was such a sucess that they made a serie.

Afterwards, it started to be a phenom, and a lot of stuff starting to come out... but before that, it was a pretty small project... just a nobel.

This is the same, with the difference that our "nobel" is an "sprite animation" ...

Wait a second...

You mean like .hack? Oh. They don't have tons of game styles. They're just one big RPG series. But yeah, it could work like theirs, multiple volumes with the ability to carry over data from the last one.

The style is a static screen beat them all... basically, you stay on a single place, and enemies come to you...
it's very simple, but some people love it for that.

It's a big problem though, and that's it that the game gets old very soon after playing it.
I bet there is no game that you can play more than half an hour before it becomes old.

On the other hand, some little "variation" of the system can make those games 1000 times funnier.... a good example is Odin Sphere.
The game is an "static-screen beat them all", but it allows exploration... I know it sounds contradictory, but it's not... The battle system is very limited (which is bad), but in general, it's a good game.
You should really check it out.

Are you kidding me? "Suck" is a kind word. That game deserves a lot worst than that.

Well, if they can put Star Wars into Soul Calibur without harm, they can obviously do it with .hack.
