I’m working on a psychological survival game with a heavy theme of identity fraud. The game Idea is that you and X amount of player’s who joined you are each in they own separate room filled with fake people who also joined you.
The game would go like this: You complete experiment’s with the “Fake people” (which you still think are real people who joined you). Each experiment you do another more deranged one would start with the “Fake people” around you becoming more deranged and robot-like.
The ending would most likely be some sort of choosing who is real and who is not to win.
Seams like a pretty cool idea for a game, one question tho. Would the “fake people” have the same avatars as the real ones that joined? For example 6 people joined one lobby they got split up 3 and 3 would each side of 3 real people have 3 fake people but with the skins of the other real people who got separated from? If that makes sense…
I really like this idea and would probably play with my friends. Just one question though, would you be disabling chat so that overhead chat messages don’t point out who is the real player? Also similarly, how would you combat the VC icon not showing up above the players’ heads?
The NPC’s already have a way to communicate in chat / bubble chat. The chats only appear client sided so only you can read what they say and all the player’s will be separated from each other.
VC would be a pretty big problem. If they is a way to make the player’s VC be anywhere then I would make it so the VC positions to one of the assigned “Fake Players”. But if that is currently not capable then I will just be forced to disable VC. Either way I’m going to look into that now because that’s pretty important.
I appreciate that the Idea is good enough to be stolen. But the whole idea of Identity fraud in ROBLOX is pretty barren so I should be good.
Come to think of it I can only name one game that incorporates fake players into their game. Which is “Identity fraud”. And even if they are more like that, I’m going for something a bit more advanced with the whole “Fake Players”. Because the whole Idea is to fool you into thinking they are real.
