Jesus Christ:Monster killer
Posted: Sun Apr 01, 2018 4:26 am
you play Jesus Christ, back from the dead, in 2090, charged with the ushering in the rapture, armed with a holy minigun with infinite ammo, hunting down bigger and bigger demons. they at first are small but soon get bigger and bigger, requiring quite a lot of processing power from the 128k (the 48k version, if i decided to do so, would crash the moment you type attack as the game will go through a whole list of variables all at once, and that's just the first screen)
it's just a thought experiment for now, but the general idea is that of a text adventure but attacking details the damage you do, with an accurate list of modifiers if any (you are allowed 3 upgrades at the start plus one level 6 defense buff). i thought of incorporating a D&D type system where bullet damage is up to chance but will scrap it, too much of a headache.
if possible, if this gets done, i may think of a 48k version.
the game will be in BASIC. Machine code is not a priority.
To do:
Layout of the city (building in the 48k's case)
enemy description
damage modifiers
bullet power (upgrades affect bullet power)
current:
city: detroit
Factions: Leatherhead (allied) and Boneyard (evil)
cheese:likely (remember perfect dark?)
gratuitous gore and blood:Hell yes
am i going to hell:depends, does the devil have reserves?
