i want a huge desert wasteland that is a total pain in the neck,
that everyone knows not to wander through...

if they are foolish enough to try,
they bring thousands of bonemeal potions...
and save ten times, and back up twice.

[so they have something to fall back on when they are forever lost in the desert]
(out of supplies, frustrated by mirages blocked by enemies you shouldn't even challege)
but you have to attack, because your supplies are exhausted and you thought you could make it in one trip!

Code: Select all

you barely fight through multiple enemies to get to a "bed*" that you cant rest in
*not a bed, but something of an oasis that you'd expect to possibly heal you

Code: Select all

maybe some of them are real, and DO replenish your HP...
so you are surprised when the mirage oasis doesn't react to you standing on it
Yes! GET CRAZY!!!

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

If you're serious, bring it up in the meeting. I have some coding shortcut suggestions to easily achieve this effect without effecting any set map size. The "40 years" quest. :)

mummies guarding an undead dragon & it's treasure in a tomb similar to a pyramid - but not quite...

we need more puzzles like...
throdna's teleporter - isn't that the one with the mystery color sequence?
much more of that!
people getting stuck when they cant figure out the riddle...

:twisted:

I can see this in my head:

A huge expansive barren land littered with cacti and giant reptiles, maybe the occasional ruin that you can go in and explore (if you can manage to find it in the huge dessert) maybe some of the ruins would be short dead ends due to cave ins and some might be huge labyrinths of passageways with huge mythological beasts guarding long forgotten treasures which used to be worshiped by tribes long lost to the dessert sands.

LOVE THIS! Expecially for high level players to explore. Let's get the ball rolling on this one in the next meeting! I really love this idea!

about the meeting...

:shock:

check out the google+ Doc & feel free to add to it - it's pretty empty.
[i wrote it in there - we'll see what Oskar says...]

:lol:

trying to fill in some gaps so we can focus on getting this Beta out first.

:twisted:

that gets the priority,
i was just brainstorming here...
randomly.

eventually i'll make a Doc for this one too
[stephen has some great ideas on this one, endless possibilities!]

but, BETA BETA BETA!

:D

Just reading what you had put in earlier got the Brainstorms started!

I'll start writing down more ideas as they come to me. I wish i could hop on my laptop while at work so i could add more to the google page.

update your G+ app,
you can access documents now...

unless i'm mistaken?


i though they enabled that in the last update?
(or the one before that even)

i could be wrong...

wait, do you even have the G+ app on your cell?
they even enable you do Hangouts on your cell too!

(our meeting format)
i can confirm this much!

:D

Wow, that G+ is HUGE! 10+ MB. (I'm assuming no SD being Google )

Anyway, idea on the desert thing...
Would be cool to have 2x3 and 3x3 creatures. It would be easy to have them if the area was mostly desert and dunes. ;) You could even have 4x3 giant scorpion bosses or skeletal dragons!

Just a nutty idea. :D

There are Tiles for monsters that take up 2-4 spaces. I'm looking forward to seeing them in game eventually. Gonna get scary! :o :D :o
