Sharkasia: Legend of the Wolfram Emerald (Revisited! [Again])

The text game will be a cult hit right off the bat. It'll be the next biggest cult game since Earthbound

new phadel palah personality traits: terrified of death; wants to live forever; carries burden of understanding the tragedy of existing.

"all my cognitive feelings and everything that makes up me, is me. I don't want it to be nothing at some point. I don't want to be nothing. I want it to all be worth something in the end."

"If you could.. would you live forever?"

"Everything that we are made of is simply matter and energy, our feelings, our thoughts. Everything."

Axus will also be scared of death, scared about how he will remain after he is gone.

Zyvor and Konas will also be one with death and accepting of it, not fearing the unknown.

Ignorance is bliss.

I kind of like the thought of using classic rock in some moments of sharkasia. its so funky fresh. these songs would be rape:
stairway to heaven
the great gig in the sky
wish you were here
dream on

Not going to lie, I think it would be kind of kife if we threw in other artists songs. We should just make up songs that sound classic rock,

obviously lol, these bands never let people use there music for commercial use anyway. I'm just using them as example of what type of music sounds like good sharkasiasticism

Ahh yes of course. that would be siiiick!

yeah its so chill. lets get writin for some sharkasi

lol pipey

saux man put up dat results thread lol

FINE

yay~ dunde esta!

--Sharkasia game intro--

*Leaves sit on the ground in the shade of a tree. It's a bright, summer day. Leaves blows in the wind a little and fly off of what is a cliff revealing a large landscape of rolling green hills. (**Sharkasia theme starts to play) In the distance sits the Kingdom of Sordom. The sun shines brightly while mystical birds fly off into the distance. The view follows the leaves as they fly through the fields over flowers showing caravans,travelers and merchants of all the different races of Sharkasia. It continues to follow as they fly through the busy city and through the streets going past shops and many people. They reach their final destination as they slowly descend into the property of an orphanage. Two young boys can be heard fighting and clashing swords together. It is now a close up of the two (**Jesu and Axus) who are still clashing swords together. Jesu is wearing a red tablecloth around his neck like a cape. Sparks fly off of their swords which make the view go dark so only the sparks are visible. In the darkness the hand of Beradini is slightly visible. It happens once more but a barely visible view of Beradini's face is there as well. Jesu takes a big swing at Axus which causes Axus' sword to fly from his hands into the air. The view is on the sword which glistens in the sun and sparks fly from it. The view goes dark with the sword and sparks in darkness with the sparks forming the words Sharkasia in fire with the sword becoming part of the title.*

would it be generic if i said i got a little tingly at that?

Nope I'm planning on working on the script now too to get this started

good shit! post everything you write, we'll save this its some solid shit.
I also picture before that, the lore of the land is explained along with the story of the emerald and a brief story of berardini animated with hieroglyphs and shit. or actually, maybe that should be after the title, and then the hieroglyph images fold into each other and its revealed its a book and ms. kadin was reading the orphan children a story. merely a story.....

Yes , that sounds good I didn't realize the storybook thing until after I wrote that lol.

remember that picture i posted of the layout for the textbased game?

This one!

thank you very much mogo. someone wanna whip me up a prototype image? It doesn't have to look good or anything, i just dont have photoshop and i need to be sure the exact pixel size of the picture.

vyzor, think you can?

did a little bit of work on the gui today for the text based game, also working on sketching up a little text logo, similar to the one I spent sooo long in grade 12 english lol.

I'll make a buffered version of the text box you posted

you have a beautiful, beatiful soul vy. i'll whip up this prototype real soon (working on a sharkasia logo still, coming along deass) and then maybe I'll start the database for commands. LETS FUCKIN MAKE A GAME

Also, do you know the exact pixel dimensions of that picture?

how do you guys feel about Rho being a great historian of sharkasia?
