No offense, but I think I'll pass on being in that.
It's for the lulz.

"whoever it is" could still be ??g?b?.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Got a point there,
but Gabe is gonna be one of the antagonists, so I don't think he would be in the party.
And about the lulz,
I don't mind what you do.
Just don't put me in, unless I'm a stud.
Slain087
Well, if you need NPCs, can I be a traveling merchant?

@slain
sounds good.


and ?????? is still no one.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Ah.
And slain,
How about talking like this:
"'ello Strangah, what are ya sellin'?"
A cookie for anyone who can guess that reference.
Two cookies if slain guesses it,
and ten cookies if slain says yes.

Honestly who the fuck doesn't know what that's from? It was a huge success, Game of the Year, and it's on 4 platforms. I'll buy it at a high price.

Also, I used "??????" for the reasons James stated.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Cookie for awp, because I get where he's going.
Yeah, but I said, ???? is whoever it is,
so technically that's right.
Anyway...
I can't think of anything.

I wanna be the guy that teaches you how to fight and you never see him again except for the very beginning.

I think that job belongs to Sinistro.

So yeah.
Seat's filled.
We have a lot of recurring bosses.
Maybe there should be a main one, who's a bit like Mid-Boss? You know, arrogant, stupid, wimpy(Yet still kicks your arse in later stages) and thinks of the main character/s as his/her "Rival".

That's kind of awp's role. He is part of Saturos' army but thinks of himself as a "special case", in that he's an equal, can't be bossed around etc. From awp's perspective, he and the rest of Saturos' army, including Saturos himself, are all in a race to put an end to the heroes, though his motives, - both direct and alterior - are probably going to be subject to ambiguity and also change from time to time.

Running with this idea, awp could join the main party near the end with the following argument: "If I'm going to win this race, I might as well help them (the heroes) out and knock off my competition - we have the same enemies."

I read the whole thread and I've noticed I don't have a role yet.
I think I would be the one of the starting imbalanced, badass characters then suddenly got infected by the virus (gabe?) somewhere in the part of the story. Then obviously leaves the party to stop the main characters (recurring boss too, since I sometimes like to join other people too) then afterwards virus got removed (after getting owned for a few times + blablabla) but decides not to return to the party but to be alone blablabla and I won't finish the role.
Topic Starter
awp
dood James you're totally this badass mercenary-ish character that pretty much has no loyalties to anybody. So your idea would work with it.

James could discover he's been infected, but not say anything about it to anyone else and bugger off on his own as a result to try and stop it by himself.

Skills eh?

Reikin's Skillset:
MAX! - A limit break level attack that charges up based on how long you can play MAX 3000. Exponentially increased damage from 3 to 3000, displayed as '3!', '30!', 'MAX 300!', 'MAX 3000!'.
Sagisu 72 - A special skill that can be learned once buying EiJi's skillbook. Gives you perfect accuracy for a temporary time.
A, AA, AAA, AAAA?! - ...Not sure lol.
Vic
Gravity and Solar Beam are parts of Summon Vic skill, obtained thru Solar Stone. Gravity is slider challenge (sumthing like Psychokinesis pins in TWEWY), and Solar Beam... Well... Notestreams plz.
James
Sinistro is an ancient wise man and I believe the adviser to Kharl.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
OK, what happens when we have more than four maps?
Topic Starter
awp
why does everyone think they have a skillset

furthermore why does everyone think their skills are their own beatmaps? one of burai's attacks is Shotgun Symphony, which happens to be my beatmap, so uhhhhh...

=x

Is Saturos defenseless? He got no beatmaps.

Let's not approach this the wrong way D=
Agent BA8 Rookbie
I assumed the attacks were beatmaps.
Maybe if a character hasn't made beatmaps, they could have beatmaps that they're number 1 for.

I'm one of the guests!
I'm important, cause I pop out of nowhere and help.
But I think some people need a skill list, because it would be helpful. But by the time this gets made, everyone will probably have made more maps, and aced more songs, so it'll probably be different.

I'm bored. That means I must make something. Something lulzy. Something pointless. Something like battle sprites for this game. I say 64*64 as for the resolution, with as many colors as possible, and animations for everything. :3

Screw this, that program is impossible to use. Also, it makes adventure games, and crappy ones at that. You can't even export the game as a .nds. <.<

We need to hold auditions for NPCs - those who just wander around the towns. No attacks, no abilities, just someone to talk to during the game for pointless advice. Anyone interested?

Yeah but there are enough actual members that you could easily name all the npc's after them.

If you make it for the DS, don't use someone else's shitty engine imo

But the DS is effectively alienating a majority of the osu! community, simply because they don't have flash cards (poor Sinistro ;___;) plus a lot of the DS hardware coding would be a bitch. PC imo

OK, got a complaint Loginer.
The instructions for that DS thing are in another language.
Anyway,
We need skins. Maybe skins could like, affect battle or something.

armours
James
Taiko armor set ftw~
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Yeah, Skins would be armour.
Every character would start with the default osu skin, and places would sell skins.
Maybe you get to go to the Hideout of Luigi's Delinquents, and you can buy all kinds of skins there.
James
Hideout of Luigi is like a hidden area not even visible in the world map (just ripped this off from some games, SO2)

and sells every expensive semi-imbalanced stuff.

and yeah everyone in the main party would start in default armors/skins
even their weapons? mouse(flail), pen+tablet(SnS), crappy tablet pc(book for mages?)
and where is the sword? i guess there is none?
Loginer
Does anyone feel like making an engine, or should we use RPG Maker vee-ehx?
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Doesn't a pen and tablet count as a sword and shield?
Well, I wouldn't know about engines, seeing as I haven't ever used RPG Maker, so I don't know how good it is, but it might have to be a custom engine.
James
Yeah, SnS - Sword and Shield
I'm pertaining to 'swords' as long sword, greatsword, bastardsword, duals, etc.

and If I know how to code I'll start doing this. heh

/me reads some codes

Giant freaking mouse cursor.

Someone should use the osu! cross-hair as a Frisbee weapon.
Slain087
I wonder what the "ultimate weapons/armor" would look like? Maybe we can have that katamari cursor be an ultimate weapon, and the more you kill, the more sticks to the weapon, increasing damage output. Although there has to be an upper limit for that.

Speaking of armor, will the skins change the appearance of the player character, or are they just for show?
Topic Starter
awp
Probably the latter, though the former could be done.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
I think it would be awesome if skins changed the appearance, but it might get confusing to code and stuff.
Topic Starter
awp
It's easy as hell to code. It's just a matter of adding additional sprites to the game - if everyone is the same size and has the same animations you can get away with one spriteset per armour, otherwise you've gotta refit it to each character. Easy to program, though.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Well, everyone being the same size might be weird, seeing as I'm a Prinny, and they're known to be small.
Topic Starter
awp
Guests would be an exception.

Probably with fixed equipment.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Yeah.
Would weapons and stuff show as well?
Topic Starter
awp
Of course.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
This is starting to sound most righteous dude.
Slain087
Are we just going to do the standard six-slot system (weapon, shield, head, armor, legs, accessory) for equips?
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Well, head and legs might be left out, and just combined into the skin slot.
Topic Starter
awp
Probably just weapon, armour, and 2 "mods" (accessories).
Agent BA8 Rookbie
Yeah, that'd be least confusing.
What about stats?
HP
MP
Spd
Atk
Def
etc.
Sinistro
Speed should so be BPM or something analogous. HP (or possibly MP instead) could be something like Rhythm/Tempo/Beat/Groove.

awp said he might make a custom engine. That's a good enough reason for me not to look.

Based on how we cannot interact with them in the chat or the forums, they sound pretty good for faceless, nondescript grunts. The numbers bring to mind automation, mass production...they could be like brainwashed clones, or robots or something.

I want a role.

I say the dorky NPC kid with glasses who everyone makes fun of. Maybe, I'll like, accidentally screw something up, and it has to be fixed, and that's like a side-quest type thing.
Fraeon
Chiming in on the whole engine issue, I really would suggest something like RPGMaker. Might not be the best engine, but you can get things quickly done with it, and you don't have to wait for awp to finish his stuff to begin working on it.

Most game assets are transferrable stuff anyways: if you have the plot, a bunch graphics and a general idea of how you're going to implement things, engines can be switched during development. Just my 2 cents here...

Should read the first post, but it's a long ass irc log, so I'll post my suggestions here like the lazy bastard I am.

Anyhow...since everything's going to be themed after osu!, I suggest that attacks would be called beats and magic would be called beatmaps. Then we could have magic spells/beatmaps like "agony", which...say...does X amount of damage and a poison effect on the enemy to boot. I already saw suggestions that armors would be called "skins" and instead of necklaces/rings, there'd be "mods".

I also suggest that the bad guys would be called The Army of Osutardation or something and would mostly be mods that have been too lazy to mod things, lately. Gabe is an otherwise awesome idea for an antagonist, but do we really need to give him extra fame and credit for anything? ;)
James

Something screwed up? = your glasses.
After fixing it, you will give your glasses to the protagonist which adds +points to accuracy. (accessory)
you gave the glasses because you can see clearly now whatever the reason.
Agent BA8 Rookbie
You can see clearly because the rain has gone?
Anyway, that sounds awesome.
wiicademan
Someone needs to write up an actual text story thing for this, with paragraphs and stuff, outlining how the story is presented in the game and the various things the player has to do to beat the game in order. It's confusing reading multiple pages of unordered IRC logs.

Also, about the luigihann selling skins as armor thing, maybe luigihann's skin shop appears to be just a regular item shop from the outside, and you can go there and buy items of average-below average value. But as part of a side-quest thing, someone lets you in on the secret that the shop actually sells illegal skins as well(perhaps as a reward for fixing my glasses?), and they tell the player a "password", which you can tell to the person working at the shop and he'll let you go behind the shop where you can meet luigihann and buy his skins. So the item shop itself is just like cover for the fact that luigihann sells illegal skins.

Reason for the skins being illegal would be that they give the wearer power, which is why whoever it is that enslaved the place banned them, because he doesn't want to risk being overthrown by someone in power.

I don't really play RPGs too much, so...
Agent BA8 Rookbie
I just thought of something.
Someone tells the player the password, they go to the shop, say the password, and get it wrong, but get it close enough.

The thing I'd like to keep in mind when developing events is that they're A - reminiscent of osu!, and B - they make sense. Some ideas can be used as they are, some will need revision (possibly to the point where they're nearly unrecognizable from what we see here) and some will unfortunately have to be pitched if they simply don't work.
