alright, I am thinking of postponing the works on pokemon war and dw1 to start a new trilogy(if I can come up with three parts of the story)

The new game is going to be named, Angel. I will have to see the subtitle as I have no clue on what its going to be now

anyway, the basic outline of the story

A girl discovers man lying in the field. The man has lost all of his memory, he cannot remember his own name. So the girl names him, Angel.

Now the planet that this girl lives on was overrun by monsters, the moment she found this mysterious man. the whole land split up into 5 continents. Each continent is controlled by a very powerful monster.

Somehow, the girl figured out that this all has to do with this mysterious stranger. But what secret could this man has? He is definately not like any ordinary man. In order to bring peace to the land, the girl has to take upon the quest to defeat all the Controllers, for this is the names that people gave to the beast; and yet another difficult task is to try to restore this man's memory. with his help and her best friend's. this girl decides to take upon herself the uneasy task.... will she succeed? you have to find out when the full version of the game comes up.

so any suggestions?

Not to sound harsh, but if you keep beginning new projects and not finishing old ones, you'll end up like Eggie, Fyrewulff, or myself.

Or any member of the community for that matter.


My suggestion is to focus on the gameplay, always the gameplay. Try out some fresh ideas.

Or me, dang it all. I just thought up another great short story, but I must resist dropping Stop to do it. No, no, no...

As for your story, the fact he is called "Angel" intrigues me. With proper development, this could be made into a great story.

Anyway....uh...finish it. Don't be lazy like me. No, no, no...

That list should be a lot longer. I imagine this problem comes to most people who work in game design.

Heh, this is why I never post an announcement about something until I'm ready to release it. If I didn't, you'd be seeing a new announcements thread from me every day.

Angel is going to be the first series(hopefully not the last) in the Pyramid of Power saga.

Just as an FYI for everyone, don't use "myself" simply to sound intelligent; there is a certain time and place to use "myself." Yes, "myself" is longer and looks more pedantic (scholarly) than "I" or "me," but it doesn't make one sound any more intelligent.

Only use "myself" as a noun putting emphasis on the noun "I" or as a reflexive noun (when you do something to yourself).

For example: I myself (putting emphasis on "I") love OHRRPGCE; I watch myself (reflexive) to make sure I don't gain weight.

DON'T use "myself" for the subject or, as Fenrir did, as a direct object. Fenrir should have used "me," not "myself."

This was probably one of the most pointless posts on CP, but I get tired of seeing people type "myself" in a futile endeavor to sound intelligent.

~Worthy

BTW, I'm not attacking you personally Fenrir. Many people use "myself," and I simply chose to pick on you.

I was wonderring what happened to "pyramid of power" and was thinking about that while I read through this. Heh.

Bravo. Intriguing. Although not entirely origninal (what is?) it is intriguing. Like the MC said, work on the gameplay. More broadly, work on your presentation. Minnek and I have problems with presentation, as many OHRers do. If your presentation isn't just right (Dialog is a biggie) then the idea is ruined, and I am sure we can relate to this as we all started out. Nuff said. Good luck. Happy

PS: Minnek is actually much better with presentation now. Happy

Don't tell me you didn't think this one wasn't overused as it is. It's all good though. And I am only here to help. Don't take it personally.

A world overrun with monsters was in the legend of Zelda every single time. I am sure it is else where, but what are ya' gunna' do? It's almost necessary.

Now this part I actually found to be the intriguing part that was farely original.

Why are the controllers bad? Enslaving the people? Eating the people as sacrifices? Either one has been done, but that's ok. I should use my imagination, huh?

Make it a good presentation is what I said. And it is all you have to worry about.

I like how you use the word pedantic in a post about not using words just to sound smart, especially when you so helpfully define it afterwards for those of us not smart enough to know it.

Also, "I myself love the OHRRPGCE" is horribly wrong.

(Not trying to be a jerk, just amused)

phc, pyramid of power was my long forgotten projects, thats why I am going to resume work on it.

and wasn't you the one against Pokemon:War? well anyway, the community didn't like it, so I drop it for now.

and leroy, I have much better idea of the girl finding wierd guy, then square did with oracle of seasons/ages. trus me, when I release the demo, zelda will be pancake compared to my creation(hopefully)

well as for the controllers, they are the ones controlling the island, they let loose the monsters that killed many innocent people.

well hopefully this answers your guy's questions regarding my new project.

I might occasionally work on DW, just to release the next demo, but I will try to focus mainly on Pyramid of Power:Angel.
