Hmm... safe zones... great idea! Of course, that would apply to most of the Space Station. Speaking of which, I spent all of yesterday working on the tileset for said station. I have almost everything except for the station's hull.


That reminds me. I thought of an idea for a "special event" aboard the station. It can happen a few days or even a week after the game goes up. The Station will be invaded by a swarm of funguslike alien creatures from another planet (aka Goombas!) It will be a little hectic since they will be in almost every single room. What do you think?


Edit: Here's a little demo for the space station's tileset:



The hallways are a goldish color and the outside is a very grayish green.


Edit2: Another peek at the tileset. Look at my new avatar.
Edit3: Oh, right. I added the stars in the background for a dramatic touch.

Things are looking good so far. But, you didn't change your avatar. Think you can put a pic in the thread?

Also, read my other post in page 5.

EDIT: Goombas? Great idea! (technically, the goomba's name in Japenese is kuribo, meaning "acorn")

Okay, for future reference, here is what my avatar is now...



As for the playable characters... let's see...

Character list
*Note that the Dragon and Squeept won't be playable and Kraid/Ridley/Metroid will require a high rank to use.

Someone could go into the game and get the exact HP and attack power or each creature, but that would take to long.

Zoomer can walk on walls, ceilings, and doors, however it can't jump. It shoots spikes up, down, left, or right for 1 weak point of damage. To kill it, it takes 7 weak hits, 4 medium hits, and 2 strong hits. Great speed.

Skree can fly and latch onto ceilings. However, when on the ceiling, one hit will kill it. (it'll explode and do 3 weak points of damage to anyone in range) It can dig into the ground and when it comes back up, it'll do 1 medium point of damage to anyone on that spot.

Rio can fly and latch onto Rippers. (doesn't hurt them) Rio can shoot pellets at enemies for 2 medium points of damage. Takes 9 weak hits, 6 medium hits, and 3 strong hits to kill. Kinda slow though.

Rippers can fly horizontally. (when it is attached to a wall, however, it can move vertically) It's attack is to rocket into enemies, doing 4 weak points of damage (2 weak points to itself) Takes 20 weak hits, 10 medium hits, and 1 strong hit of damage to kill it. Really fast.
---------------------------------------------
I'll do the rest later. Will you be able to switch between characters during gameplay?

Not really. Once you choose a creature, you stay that until you recreate your file or find a DNA altering lab.


Also, I've started developing the layout for a space fighting arena, shaped like a giant Geruta. I like Gerutas.

I have a suggestion.

At the beginning, how about your character starts out in the main lobby. All the entrances are closed except for the Space Station training center, information desk (a.k.a help file), DNA center (you need to find creature disks to become a different character. each disk contains 1 creature. you bring it to the DNA center to become it. you start out as Samus.), and the Paint Shoppe (you get one free paint job at the start. you need 30 bounty points after that. you can choose from a load of templates or create your own for 40 points). At the information desk, there is a robot that, when spoken to, displays the help file.

How does that sound?

Hmm... that sounds good, but I think many people will want to stay as Samus. I don't know anyone who'd give up a power suit to be a bug.


...'kay, maybe one.

Erm...how about you start out as Suitless Samus? She only has a small pellet gun and that's it. If you find a power suit disk, you take it to the DNA lab and they will give you the suit. (only Samus) If you're a bug, you must find the human disk first. They're hidden in spots and stuff.

I could see using the alien bodies as a means to get to places where Samus cannot. Maybe Zoomer could climb a wall into a crevace and get a sweet item, or something

Where in the world is Clockwork JB...


Well, today I finished (for the most part) the interior of the giant Geruta-shaped space arena. Also I've decided that wall jumping will be earned by collecting the Wall Jump Boots from outside the Space Station.


Also, I've developed a new upgrade: the Rival Radar (). Whenever another person enters a room, it emits a little ping. If someone with a bounty enters the room, a siren sounds. Also, if anybody you've added to a friend/rival list enters the room, it will emit a different sound. It could be found somewhere in one of the new locations, but a downgraded version could be purchased from a store.

After a review of the idea behind this, it seems like it's going to be Maple Story with a Metroid facelift. Am I right? If so, will monsters drop exp. to level up and Credits to buy stuff?

Good idea... except for one thing...

I really wouldnt want it to ping for EVERY person that enters the room... maybe only for bounty-ridden people, and friends/rivals, but not for every-day people

Hmm... I guess Game Creation went pop...


Good point, KATW. It would get pretty annoying in lobbies.


To Clockworkz, this is really not an RPG. There is no "leveling up", just collecting Missile Expansions and Energy Tanks. The only thing creatures drop will be ammo, health, and maybe money. I'm still thinking on whether or not money should come strictly from bounty hunting or not...

To 133... Ace, no.

This may be a weird suggestion... But I don't think Zebs and Garnets would be the best playable characters, seeing how they're basically just infinite container-dropper things in the real games, and Zebs are especially weak.

You're right, they are pretty useless, but there might be some people dissappointed if we take them out.


Any progress, guys?

I can try some more of that cave, but I wasn't sure if you wanted me to go ahead with it or not, or if it was needed bigger or not. =/

I was seeing if I could get Clockwork JB to post again. He seems to have vanished. I was hoping Squash Monster could help him make that engine thing...

Uh, guys.

They're already MAKING a metroid online. It's Halo, modded to play like Metroid Prime.

Huh? *Google's* Oh. Darn. And I already made the button...


Well, I guess we can always call it Zebes online, but it covers more than just Zebes.

NES Metroid Online, maybe?
