I'm making a game, and ill sneak in some of their actual language, but not aggressive clicking.

WHY SIR WHY

[Megggas]

I'm thinking about making a relatively short prison break themed RTD.  The game would revolve around a sudden power shutdown in a high-security prison that contains 1 extremely valuable prisoner.  Players could either choose to be a guard focused on keeping the prisoner contained, or a criminal infiltrator tasked with getting the prisoner out. The power shutdown would only last an hour of ingame time, after which all security settings are restored and the prison becomes inescapable.  There would only be 30 turns before the game ends, and each turn would be 2 minutes of ingame time.  I'd probably try to update once a day, so that the RTD ends after about a month.  Any player who doesn't post by the time I update with the next turn would probably just be auto'ed for that turn.

Anyone think this kind of RTD might work?  I'm considering having the guard-players post in the main thread, while the criminal-players would play via PM.  Then after the game ends, I'd edit every "turn" post to include the PMed actions and results.

I'd play it.

[heydude6]

Same, my interest is piqued.

[Megggas]

Hmm, ok.  I'll start making plans and start it up in the next few days then.  It will be my first RTD, so I wanted to start with something fairly straightforward.

[Yoink]

Sounds cool, good luck.

Interpretation is the most fun part of Fniff's generators. I intend to run a Random-Generated Scifi Rampage for Guns, Cash and Glory (RGSRGCG for short - it rolls of the tongue) RTD at some point, built around the lovely things. The players will be would-be heroes shanghaied by a morally-shady organization of SPACE JUSTICE and HEROISM into making a mess of hotspots around the galaxy and causing enough collateral damage during their exploits to bankrupt several small empires.

There will be randomized guns, drugs, vehicles, even enemies, and it will be glorious (main inspirations being various light-hearted adventure/space opera scifi and Ratchet & Clank for that 'get guns, explode everything' feel).

I've gone ahead and made this game, hurray! You can find it here.

So, idea:

There is a floating castle filled with monsters, and a guild of adventurers hell-bent on getting to the top. That is the extent of the story, from there it is just climbing to the top of the castle in a never-ending zerg rush of adventurers getting higher with each group. A d6 is used for most things with classes affecting bonuses and maluses. No HP, just a Chunky Salsa Rule. Somewhat inspired by Rogue: Legacy, in that you start with a single class available and get more and more as adventurers die and their money is used to update the base.

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

What if we had two teams, with one team playing as a strong (but limited) set of monsters and another team playing as the adventurers?

[Twinwolf]

While that's a good idea for a game on it's own, it doesn't seem to quite work for the one I have in mind.

But seriously, that would be cool, someone should do it.

Sounds good, as long as there's some sort of limit on how many players are in the dungeon at once.

[Twinwolf]

I'm thinking starting with 4, with the ability to upgrade the base to allow more to be in at once, ala XCOM: Enemy Within.

Also, should a new group show up when all of the previous group is dead, whenever someone dies, or when a floor is completed?

[Twinwolf]

Started it.
