Murder Madness is asking questions!

I need help on my up-coming game that will go in beta testing on the 25th of may. The name is Murder Madness
It’s a different theme to any other murder game…

Basic info: Every Match there is a Murder, Innocent and a detective. The job for the murder is to kill each and everybody. The role of the innocents is to survive and expose the murder and tell the detective. The role of him/her is to shoot the murder without dying. If innocents would like to help there are 10 gun parts around the map and if 1 finds all 10 gun parts the player will have to find a crafting table to make the 2nd weapon.

question: is it iconic for players to love? and why?

Gamemodes: Boss fight,musical chairs,murders vs sheriffs, Double the trouble, infection
boss fight: Battle with the boss of the month! you can buy packs from the shop to help you win!

musical chairs: everybody is blinded there will be 1 murder hidden. The murder will pick someone to kill and when they pick a person the innocents will pick who to choose.

Murder vs sheriffs: Murders will fight the sheriffs it’s a team battle.

Double the trouble: 2 murders.no gun parts only 1 sheriff.

infection: it’s basically zombie mode but the zombie is the murder and survivors and sheriffs

question: is it good/bad tell me.

Question:will this game be on the front page? Will it be pop? and would you like to attend? the beta testing? please tell me.

Hope to see your answers!

If the game is goodly made + you advertise it with an advertisement of good quality, it should bring up around 3k players, the game itself has many cool features, i suggest for e.g, adding an mode with an super slow chance of “appearing”, and would be called “Triple The Double”, which would have 4 teams, the infectors, sherrifs, and the murderers, without the innocents, and the teams should battle for they lives, if you win, you could get an exclusive knife of your team, e.g, the Infector Knife, which has an special ability(Also other feature that you could add, such as abilities to exclusive/special knifes), that can make the player that has been stabbed, become an infector for at least 5 seconds, and whoever they touch will get killed.
(Sorry for the “long” reply, this idea is very cool.)

This is not very specific. I felt there was a game called murder madness at one point no? The game sounds unfair as the murder has the advantage and can camp parts of the gun or just straight up kill everyone at the start before they can even get to part 5. It sounds like a murder mystery ripoff with aspects of wink murder. The rounds would be very quick. This sounds like a cool concept but I’d probably need to see the game before I can comment more because your post wasnt super specific. Cant wait to see it on the 25th.

The murder cannot see the crafting table or gun parts…Also i can add paragraphs but people are stealing every single idea they see…But if this wasn’t enough info very sorry and thanks!

theres also a room that has the table and murder cannot camp it.

Also how would I get players while we are testing?

Alright but, there would need to be a handful of players. I feel you should reduce the gun part amount as, at the start of your games’ success, there will be 1 murderer among lets say 5 players. 5 players need to know exactly what to do and where to go or they’re gonna get killed. It’s still an advantage to the murderer and even if your game has like 1 murderer among 10 survivors who may be new or don’t know what to do. There are a few flaws but it does sound cool

Try closed beta testing? (30charrrr)

Thanks but we have a tutorial in the description but won’t be handy…We should add a tutorial as the starting gui to newer players

hmm How would I announce it? there’ll be 10 people beta testing…Or 90 idk but thanks

I’ve seen people do this through the recruitment section. Perhaps advertise it as “Beta testers get XYZ” or allow your friends to test.

Thats seems kinda low but it’s in beta testing so…!

The gun building part sounds pretty unique. It’s not something I’ve heard of in a murder game yet. If it’s executed well, it could be a difference from other murder games. You should definitely look into camping issues though. An issue I see with murder games today is that murderers can easily guard a dropped gun, giving innocents little chance to retrieve it. You should definitely keep that in mind.

I like the idea of monthly boss battles, but could you elaborate on how they’ll work? If you keep a constant stream of updates, you can definitely have players engaged.

I’m excited to see what you’ll present on the 25th. I’ll give you feedback once the beta is out.

Seems to me like murder mystery except there are more gamemodes and you can collect some gun parts as an innocent, I think it would be much better if when all the gun parts were collected it spawns in a gun somewhere on the map, I think it is a bit hard to get all 10 parts while other innocents are taking some, this might be a purely client side event but I feel like it might be better if collecting enough parts spawns in a gun that way the innocents can work together.

The boss gamemode sounds really cool and if implemented the right way could attract you tons of players, I can see this getting a lot of visits but if it doesn’t have enough diversity from standard murder mystery it might not end up good, make sure there are enough unique aspects though and it could eventually be a front page game!

I have a few concerns with the game that may be helpful to you.

Every Match there is a Murder, Innocent and a detective. The job for the murder is to kill each and everybody.

This is the core gameplay that every Murder Mystery game has.
However, you may have different game modes, games like MM2, which is very established, will be able add game modes pretty easily if it’s something the players want, otherwise you are just taking a huge gamble on hoping these are things players enjoy.

MM2 also has a huge fan base and commitment around their in-game skins/items, getting players to give that all up (Robux, levels, time, etc.) for slight changes is a big gamble.

Personally, I believe you are creating the same game with different game modes, and I think it needs a bit more to be able to be successful on the platform.
I think a major game play twist has to be added to it to make it successful. This is something that Survive the Killer did really well. They took core game play that people love, however they added something completely different that other well established games couldn’t simply just “add”.

yeah that’ll still be 2 guns if a innocents gets all parts we are reducing to 5
thanks!

we are just making a modern revamp and adding a whole new theme to it

This is the info…Since it’s your point i’ll respect that..Murder games are all the same so why not make it better? We have that gamble thing you’ve said also thanks! for the info

Thats what im scared about not hitting the front page…But thanks for the info!

Alright i’ll edit the topic to show our game. thanks!

Even if it doesn’t hit the front page, if you work hard on it I am sure it will still become popular.
