I would like to introduce you to a upcoming game me and a few friends have been working on together. We are bringing a game to roblox, and it is based off of the popular anime and manga “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure” . Our game will be having a storyline aspect, where you do quests in a certain order to become either a ‘Hamon’ user, or a vampire. Vampires will be very strong, and become weakened in the sunlight. Hamon users have many moves such as extending arms, and barrages of punches, and even sensing the players around you. Our monetization tactics are going to be 2x hamon charging (you have a bar of hamon, charge it and with certain amounts of hamon charged you can use attacks), and purchasing cash, and a random roll of cosmetics (hats and hairs from characters in the franchise) .
THE TEAM:
(Me) - Builder, GFX, Animation, Semi scripter @FullMetalEdward45221 (quit, but we still are on good terms) - Scripter @dragonsamruai360 - On/Off Builder @Jerememez - Helper with me scripting
Game to test progress on Hamon:
Note: Keybinds are E, R, And double press C for hamon life sense (red = vampire, yellow = hamon user, white = none)
So yeah, that is our game so far. Give us feedback on our games builds/gui, and if you have any ideas ranging from quest ideas, to thumbnail ideas, we will consider them all!
Will the game be multiplayer? If so will the quests be single player or be a multi-player quest experience with certain players having the voice dialogue at certain times.
What will get players to come back to play your game time after time? In order to do this you’ll need to make sure the quests are fun and optional, no one likes to be forced into long monotonous storylines, however if it adds to the experience with potential incentives like in-game cash, special items or loot boxes that’ll attract an audience.
Having a mini-games will be crucial. I recommend you have a general combat mode in a range of environments, such as schools, shops or wherever the storyline takes place, you could also try other modes:
Perhaps the vampires need to team up with the Hamon’s in one game mode to defeat another enemy or boss.
Perhaps there is weaknesses to each enemy, so for vampires if the sun is out on the map they lose health so have to remain indoors for the match whilstHamon’s might have a weakness if the vampires activate loud speakers causing their senses to be impaired. This could therefore add some variation to the game mechanics, with each side having weaknesses and strengths that the enemy could try and manipulate.
Overall this sort of game concept would get right to the front of the popular page if done right.
Thanks for your response, I’ll answer some of your questions.
1.Yes, the game will be multiplayer, the storyline is a series of quests to get you started, so that you can have a few levels to start doing other quests / fighting.
2. There will be other unique quests such as someone who gives you a quest making you have to go kill a random player in the server. I was thinking of adding stats (ex. Durability, Power) but I’m not sure on that. I was thinking of the incentive of cash, to get certain sub-abilities, such as a sword (from the show), or knife, baseball bat. Some weaknesses / passives will be Hamon users doing 2x damage to vampires, and vampires being able to disable hamon for a short period of time(via getting 5 consecutive hits or something). There will be general combat, hopefully people will start figuring out “oh, if i use a baseball bat with hamon, thats really good for fighting people with a sword!” etc…
Minigames were going to be a certain NPC, he can send you to the battle arena, where you can fight other players, or maybe even for hamon users, they can team up to fight DIO (Main villian in the show).
Sorry I got a little scrambled whilst answering your questions, but I hope this response helps you understand, I will take your feedback into consideration. (also just noticed you said special in game items, it would be something like cosmetics, from characters in the show, and a NPC can roll you a random one)
Must say, that most of the scripting done by fullmetaledward is, for the most part flawless and the building is almost spot on, we’ll keep up the work to make this a very enjoyable and fun game to play.
