Yeah sorry to make things more clear for everybody the ROs will be the youngest member of the hero team (I still haven’t found the right name for), the leader of the villain team (I really need to find a name for these teams), your best friend (who if you become a hero they’re become a hero same if you become a villain) and a fangirl/boy (you can romance this one no matter if you’re a superhero or villain)

I was thinking of making everyone on both teams as ROs but since I’m new to this I decided to take it slow and only have four

62

For villain how about Death Hunters and for heroes Light Bringers?

63

I don’t know enough about the heroes/villians to give an example name for each group, but if you don’t have a list of available powers, I have an idea for one if you like

64

Villains

  • The Titanium Ten?
  • The Red League?
  • The Annihilists?
  • The Peace Breakers?

Heroes

  • The Emerald Warriors?
  • The Bane of Evil?
  • The Justice Bringers?

@Dark_Stalker, Light Bringers was an old scifi pc game where you had to insert a different disk for each area.

65

Really? That sounds horrible and unneeded.

66

when I say old, I mean OLD. the graphics were okay for it’s day, but I couldn’t push myself to get into it

67

Hmmm I really like The Peace Breakers and The Light Bringers thanks guys! :smiley:

68

@fox_vixen, no thanks necessary, just doing my job, miss… oh wait, no I’m not. *checks watch* back to gutting fish on my TPS reports, then.

Hey guys these are the powers MC can choose from:

Technology Manipulation: The ability to manipulate electronics and machinery.

Aerokinesis: manipulate the air, wind, and gas. This also allows me to fly

Geokinesis: control, manipulate, and reshape the earth at will.

Pyrokinesis: create, control and manipulate fire, flame and heat.

I can manipulate and control water, breathe underwater and can absorb water. And have healing properties

Quintessence Force meaning I can generate whitish-blue lighting

Cryokinesis I can control ice, snow and other forms of frozen water. I can also freeze things in solid ice.

I have traditional powers like super strength and flying

I don’t have any powers

70

Is lightning going to have super speed?

71

No lighting does not have super speed

72

Also would our power be able to hurt us?

73

Well yes…if you have a low control percentage and you push it

74

Also are we going to have to worry about secret identity?

75

Hmmmmm only if your parents are villains

76

You said we can pick what happened to our parents if we say there the opposite allignment can we fight/kill them?

77

This seems interesting. If I could offer any advice at all it would be to be careful with the list of powers the MC can choose from. Too many and you will have to make it so that they do nothing but provide flavor text. Otherwise you will risk burning yourself out writing unique scenarios and choices for each and every power.

I can’t speak for the others, but I would always prefer 3 unique and well implemented powers to choose from as opposed to a slew of powers that might as well be literary reskins of one another.

If you are wondering what I mean by the reskins part, just take a look at how similar the elements in Fatehaven ended up being.

78

There is 8 powers.

79

Trust me, @From_Beginnings speaks the truth. Too many powers = coding nightmare for combat scenes.

80

Yes, a couple days ago to help perfect my coding abilities, I attempted to make a game (one that I wasn’t really planning on going anywhere, which it didn’t, but with my diversity of powers, I discovered that it was easier to just easier to make separate games for each power under one file. I didn’t get to far and I was working on my Castaway game at the same time anyway
