Welcome to the start of one of the greatest collaborations in MakeCode history…
(Or one of the greatest failures)
That’s it for this post so… Celestial begins!
I voted to be a main coder! How should I start?
I joined to be the ideas guy, so, I shall spit out ideas:
A sorta classic story of redemption, You are a fallen angel trying to climb back up to heaven. The enemies could just be demons trying to drag you back down to hell, “Where you belong”.2. 2.
A twist to the first one, You are an angel fighting your way down to hell to either find or kill someone (either could be interesting). The enemies could be a mix of angels and demons trying to stop you for it and at the end (succeeding or not) you become a fallen angel for disobeying the rules of life or something like that
Basically Kratos, You play as a mortal who crawled out of purgatory and wants to tear away the concepts of heaven and hell as you see them as unjust and corrupt (whether this is true or not doesn’t really matter to the Mc). Same enemies as 2 but could also have Npc’s along the way that could paint the truth of these concepts (either proving the Mc right or wrong, again either would be interesting)
Each one is just a base outline and could have variations with the twists and gameplay
I wanna join and i will do anything you say! or just need help with!
Before we decide on a story, we should make gameplay and then fit it to a story.
Action/Adventure is not quite a genre of game. We thinking Legend of Zelda? Or possibly a text-based story game with player-controlled action interludes?
I’m not sure what to pick…
I like story 2 the most.
I was thinking of that…
As you might know I really like making Legend of Zelda games. (I just never finish them)
Also @Ima.notarobot you can start by coding some features you think should be in the game. (I’ll do the art, just use default sprites for now)
I can compose some music for hell or purgatory
Jw is this a side-view platformer or a top-view legend of Zelda like game?
Can I join? I’m pretty good at art and coding
From what you said about the game, I’m sure it’s going to be a sidescroller platformer. How are you going to add a fighting aspect in the game?
maybe he could have a bow and shoot projectiles left right up down etc.
lol you just like me fr
Anyways, if it’s a legend of Zelda like game story 1 or 2 would work great.
Roger that. What are some important features of celestial? Also does this work:
Arrow keys to move or A,D You can wall jump with up.
It would be cool if you had a sorta floating mechanic, like clicking the jump button in the air stops you in place allowing you to hover over the ground for a while to jump again or maybe attack
Wow that’s cool. Could I help somehow, Copy Sprite?
Game Idea: When the Angel dies, There could be an Animation of a demon hand (reaching out towards the screen) grabbing the halo and breaking it then the Game over screen will have shards of the Halo in the game over.
Added affects.
Sliding on a wall creates smoke, jumping from a wall creates smoke and your character leaves a cloud trail, falling at a certain speed creates a cloud trail.
are there gonna be angles/demons from the bible and stuff? if so I have some suggestions
I meant what you think would be cool features.
Also that’s good but I’m pretty sure we just decided the game’s going to be top down.
