Aryllia [WIP... Kinda?]

Looks good so far :smiley:
But could you let us pick our hair?.. I don’t like long hair lol xD

Thanks to everyone that’s shown an interest in my piddly little WIP!

@Bloodhawkereaper Yeah, I’ll do that. I don’t think it’ll be too detailed though; just short, medium and long for both guys and girls… because I’m lazy? :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ve basically started from scratch now - the intro is a little more cohesive with the story, although I’ve kept the Narrator and squeezed some more lemon on him/her/it… although I wonder if I made him/her/it a bit too sour. Maybe add some sugar. I’m still trying to think of a good plot really. It doesn’t have to be epic just… something. xD

Oh, I haven’t updated the initial link yet though. I’ll do that when this new version has some more meat on its bones. I’ll give it a week or two, maybe.

Hey I heard you say that you had more fun coding than writing, which I think is freaking amazing. Your perfect for me because I’m the exact opposite, but anyway what I’m getting at is I’m kinda like you and I want to make a game too; but I suck in more than one way at coding, and you learned all you basically needed to create a demo in just a couple of hours of spare time. I however can come up with numerous stories based on character or setting and find writing stories to be one of my strong points.

So as you can see You could help me greatly increase my coding skills while I could give you some very helpful advice for your story whenever and wherever you needed it to create the perfect COG storm! Are you with me?!?!!?!

(sorry I got a little excited therein the end)

@Antonio_Tiger *Head tilt* I suppose so… Actually, I’ll be honest, I don’t exactly know what you have in mind. Specifically the part about increasing your coding skills.

I went at choicescript like a lone wolf; with all the grace of a bull in a china shop… The hell is a lone-wolf-bull doing in a china shop you ask? Trying to write a story and knocking over precious china… and potentially scaring away prospective customers. Who goes out to buy china in stores nowadays anyway? Buying online is both easier and cheaper… most of the time.

… Where was I? Oh. I rambled everywhere. Sorry.

If you have ideas and advice for the story do feel free to message me and whatnot… It all seemed grand and new to me a week ago but it’s quickly lost most of it’s allure and steam at this point after finding out I enjoying reading more than writing (coupled with the fact I’m incredibly uncreative) - so progress is slowing. :-"

If you have trouble coding I’m sure others much smarter and better informed than myself can help if you post in the right section. It’s not all too difficult once you get the hang of it, and you can learn and write at your own pace. :stuck_out_tongue:

Lol thanks anyway, but yeah I took yours and most peoples advice and just started working on choice-script on my own.
Good luck on your story btw:
I hope you finish it :slight_smile:

@MaraJade hate you? When did I say that?

Hey. What’s goin’ on?

So smooth…so fitting @Nao keep up the good work and simply don’t stop. Your creative mind *sniff* It’s beautiful 0.0. More chocolate will set you on the right path =p

@Martin_Brody, you’ve been an active forum member long enough to have no excuse for strewing the WiP threads with Rule 2 violations. Out of curiosity, are you aiming to be the first person to get a reprimand rather than a reminder? /:slight_smile:

This seems interesting enough, perhaps with some more content you can go far with it. You should try to make the character creation more natural, than straight up asking them.

@Havenstone I’ve never gotten in any trouble before about it. I didn’t know there was anything wrong with that.

@Martin_Brody If you only do it once or even twice, it’s no big deal. Everybody does it once usually, so you’re hardly going to get in trouble for it. But once they have asked you not to, it’s best to cease asking.

@Martin, I thought you’d been around long enough to see plenty of other people get Rule 2 reminders – but my mistake, clearly. Sorry for sounding harsher than average in my reminder; I must have missed my coffee this morning. Anyway, now you know: if your comments have some content besides asking whether anything’s new on a WiP, they’re great; if not, they’re clutter.

@Nao, I think you should just keep rambling and writing random stuff. See where it takes you. What you’ve written has a fun “voice” – keep running with that voice, and if a plot bubbles up, great… if not, hey, just keep it random.

Haven did you have to close the Dark Matter one? ;C

If @oColourz is still around and would like it reopened, any mod would be happy to help.

Otherwise: let’s keep this thread focused on @Nao’s game.

;a

I also really like the intro

I heard someone say hate marajade… >.>" Didn’t say that I agreed. I’m just saying I heard it… I SUPPOSE SINCE I CAN’T PEE STANDING UP I MUST BE A WOMAN??? ;-;

@Talon5506, I think @Nao would be willing to add an option for “mentally/physically confused” if you asked.

I actually intended to start over with something completely new so, um, this ‘project’ is basically dead in the water with lots of tiny fish nibbling at it’s corpse… and it’s all bloated and gross and…
*Twiddles thumbs*

So uh, instead of making a whole new thread I figured I’d just post this on the corpse one. About starting a new game… Until I actually *start* the game and have a nice sized demo up and running, then I’ll probably make a new thread. This one was really just me getting my hands on choicescript and messing around so it’s not too unexpected, I think.

I want to make one starring a villainous character… or someone seen as villainous at least, but you don’t have to be evil… but you can be horribly evil if you like. I’ve always been partial to Bad Powers, Good People and the Punch-Clock villain tropes so I was kind of milling that around in my brain juices. It was one of the main reasons I liked playing a light-sided Sith Inquisitor in SWTOR…

Of course, I really need to work out how evil I should make the choices (I always choose the good options so writing evil might be a challenge) and how seriously it should take itself (I’m leaning towards parody-ish). I’m pretty certain it’ll be taking place in a high/low-fantasy setting.

So yeah, that’s what’s up!

TL;DR: Aryllia is dead and I’m starting something new! Also, I need to get my walls of text under control…
