So, I'm making an RPG and was just wondering if anyone might be interested in helping me with a story line or ideas for development!

Please note that pictures 3 and 4 are still WIP's

This looks interesting! Maybe for a main plot (an idea i had when I would always think about videogame ideas in my head), people who use magic and other people who use technology. And they are at war. Just an idea, though.

I'd love to help however I can.

Destroyer message me and we can talk alright?

I've had several... "unique" ideas for games. They're usually a bit strange and require some intelligence to work out, though.

Good artists steal

Find an epic narrative and re-imagine it in an interactive game form.

Studying some basic stuff up front helps too.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dramatic_structure

Then get help by crowdsourcing some content perhaps.

Pretty awesome, I am also working on a game in RPG Maker VX Ace. I am working on a storyline as well. I write on my offtime and know a few authors that write storylines as well. What are you looking for in a story? I may be able to drag something out of one of em.

So basically what I have now... Main character we will call him Edward for now.. Walks into the Kingdom of Ashfield into the shop, the strange guy in black robes pulls him to the side... He is evil but "Edward" is too dumb to realize, edward is told to meet king William at the Ashfield Cave ( where evil guy set a trape ) thats as far as I have gotten...

But the guy in black robes belongs to a evil cult called the "Black Mages"

So, would anyone be interested in seeing an update maybe tomorrow evening?

What's it coded in?

[7499275]

I do not know. Using RPG maker VX ACE to make it if that tells ya anything

I don't know jack about coding/scripting, so this takes most of that out of it.

So if anyone wants to keep up with my game making please refer to my blog a link in my signature!

I suggest something more creative than "Black Mages." Something like... nevermind, I can't storyline.

I used to do some stuff with RPGMaker XP. I liked it a lot better than VX, which felt limiting in many ways.

Anyway, if you want your RPG to be appealing, it's got to stand out in some way. Be it the conversations you can have, the storyline, the world, the characters, features of gameplay or whatever. Of course I know you're just starting but there doesn't seem anything too interesting so far. I don't know about VX but for XP you could get loads of tilesets with which you could make really complex interiors and exteriors. I never got far into my projects, but I tried to make them interesting by putting a lot of detail into the world and having people with a lot to say and important roles in the world.

Well Kerbface, I'll take suggestions... I'm posting all future updates in my blog on here, (link in sig) and just comment your suggestions of pm me anytime!
