I was making a Painterly Pack a while ago, and thought "Hm, there are a lot of RPG-esque options here..." Combine this with a discussion about Zelda dungeons on a server I visit and I end up with an idea-"Hm, maybe I could build my own dungeon?" This was quickly followed by "Hm, I fail at Redstone... and exterior design... and several other things..." This follow-up was followed up by "Hm, maybe the Bay12ers would like to aid me in this project?" Which kind of brewed over a while until this idea came to fruition. The long and short of it is-we're going to make our own Dungeon Crawl, in whatever form we want. Because we can.
We'll need a number of people working on this project, who should be good at doing different things. I've come up with a list which would encompass most of the things we'd need for a dungeon, but my guess is that I've missed a few things.
- Magagers: People who will oversee the project and dabble into the majority of fields. Only one or two of these will be needed.
- Designers: People who will design and dig out the dungeons themselves. Would need to co-operate with other jobs to make their intentions clear.
- Redstoners: People who will create all the circuitry and traps in the dungeons. Would need good knowledge of Redstone to ensure a good job is done.
- Artists: People who will make the dungeons aesthetically pleasing. Also responsible for above-ground buildings. Could also make a texture pack?
- Server Host: While they may not seem like an important job, having a server would be the best way of doing things. If someone could host a whitelisted server, that would be amazing.
I also have a somewhat vague idea of what the plot would be! Ahem;
A thousand years ago, a great evil terrorized the land. A great, foul beast known as Armok came from the depths of the Nether to send his minions to wreak havoc upon the population of the Bay. However, in times of darkness, 12 heroes from across the Bay stood up and defeated Armok, imprisoning his powers in 12 Diamonds. To keep these diamonds safe, they each dug their own dungeon, to which only the bravest heroes could traverse, and hid their diamonds in the bottom of their dungeons. Armok was sent back to his own realm, waiting for his chance to seek vengence. His chance is now. He has come back to this realm, and is seeking the Diamonds of the Bay to regain his powers. You, the hero, must find all of the diamonds before Armok, lest the world fall into chaos.So I suppose it all boils down to this: would anyone be willing to help me create this project? And if so, how?
