Hello! So I’ve been thinking of working on a sense8 game, but considering its core, I’m wondering how hard it’d be.
For those of you that don’t know, sense8 is a show about a different species of humans that can visit each other by being but not being there, kind of like telepathy except you can see the person, homosapiens and other sensates outside a cluster can’t see the person unless sensates outside a cluster have made eye contact. There’s also sharing which is basically using another cluster members skill if you don’t have it. So i’m good at fighting but not at hacking and another member is good at hacking, they sort of but not really take over my body and hack for me. Also has to do with feeling each others pain and can hear what they’re saying and stuff.
The plan would be a bit complicated but I’ve written stuff down to try and connect things together:
EDIT:// Forgot to mention this, there could also be a third tool called archipelago where if you make eye contact with other sensates, you can visit them by clicking archipelago and then their name. Their name disappears if they’re not in the server. Also maybe there should be an option to pick which city you’re from but that won’t depend on which server you can join?
Apart from being unsure of the success of such a game, the possibility of the script and how in gods’ names I’ll be able to fund the scripting, I’m not even sure what type of genre the game would be like. Would it be a roleplaying game? Will there be NPCs to give tasks to people? Will I allow for 3 teams: homosapiens, homosensates, homosapien hunters (people who target sensates)? Maybe all together: PVP, PVE, RP?
Hope to hear your thoughts!
