Monster Tamer Sim/RPG (0/6)
« on: March 18, 2017, 07:56:32 pm »

In the Second Age, the Goddess created Pandemonium, the world of monsters, and forever separated her world from the human world. She erected a great barrier around the human world, and carried Pandemonium far into the void, leaving only a tiny trail between the two. In time the human world, cut off from magic and monsters, forgot of their existence...

You find yourself laying on a cold stone floor. A soft blue glow illuminates the room around you. It looks as though you're in some sort of church. There is a heavy stone door right behind you. There is another at the opposite end of the room.  Identical statues of an angel line the sides of the room. In the center of the room there is a small well, the source of the blue light.A disembodied voice says: A great adventure lays before you. Take this Gate Key. A silver key floats up from deep within the well and floats several inches above the water. If you want to embark on this journey, take this key and enter Pandemonium, the world of monsters. If you do not want to pursue your destiny, use the key to return home...

You take the key and unlock the Pandemonium door. The door leads to a similar stone room lined with angel statues. A raised platform with a keyhole in the floor stands in the center of the room. The implication is obvious and you place your key into the hole and turn. A blinding beam of light shoots up, encircling you in bright blue light. A portal opens beneath you, and the world becomes a mix of blue lights...

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

Is there a list of monsters or can we just make stuff up?

Seems like "make stuff up". He DID say "keep it simple-ish".

For the starter monsters they're basically whatever you want. They're going to come out of eggs here in a bit.

websim.ai is coming dangerously close to being able to run Gridhood. Maybe I'll live to see the day if I exercise, eat right, and somehow convince the world's governments not to nuke everyone.

Hey I'm going to cancel this. I think I may put together one of those arms race games based on my system I was going to use for this.
