S U R V I V O R --------------- What is Survivor? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Survivor is an idea for a simple 2D-Shootgame. It should be realiseable with less expense - that means not a big production like big games with complex operations. Easy screen construction: Background graphic - down in the screen stands right the Survivor with weapons - enemies attacking who must be destroyed. (The same game-play like the game WALKER) The Story (causal) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------------------------------------------------------ The story is needed for the introsequence - raytraced or animated. To show a good introduction for motivating. ------------------------------------------------------------------ It's the future: There is a planet in a far solar system with peaceful life. The technical development of this creatures lives on this planet are more less than the humen on earth of the 20th century. They don't know about wars and hatred. The prophets of this planet have made a prophecy: After 30 years, their planet will be destroyed by a comet. Those 30 years are over and the planet of this creatures is in danger now. That time, the humanoids from the earth suddenly appear with big starships to this planet. They came in peace, they say. So, the friendly humen build a shield to the creatures planet to protect them from that comet. However the humen take possession of the planet and get a superiority. One by one many creatures disappear, many other were persecuted and were killed from the once friendly humen. One creature recognizes that injustice comes from the humen. He makes proclamation and calls up to a boycott. So, one day all creatures go to the streets and demonstrate friedfully against this injustice who was brought to their planet by humen. But at this night the creatures go through the biggest genocide in their live. The human kills innumerable creatures. One creature who make all this boycott possible sees his friends and family dying at that night. The peaceful demonstration ends in a big massacre, almost every creature on this planet is dead. Only one creature survives - it's the SURVIVOR. He loses his mind and his personage and become an unscrupulous warrior. He just wants to do one: To destroy the shield, that the planet can be destroyed by the planet as it has been prophecied. The Game ~~~~~~~~ Kill humen all the time and destroy the shield at the last level. Game Ending ~~~~~~~~~~~ The planet will be destroyed. Features: ~~~~~~~~~ It's possible to make good and sadly game-over sequences: The last survivor is dead! The game should bring fun - you're going to kill soldiers all the time. Bloody, brutal but even fair! The humen are assholes - you have the permission to KILL THEM ALL! Note: ~~~~~ Idea for this Story: Merlin-M! of Nuance and Pennywise. Merlin had the idea. But we had one problem: We are not coders, just musicians. So the game was just an unrealisable idea. If you want to use that story for your game, just credit us - we tried, but we couldn't do it. Also take a look for some modules found in the aminet from Merlin-M! eVRIMSSON Merlin-M Pennywise - People out - everywhere!
