Title: Okay so critique mah idea. Long Exposition.
Post by: Sgt.Chilly on September 28, 2007, 05:53:37 AM
A robot maid named Gail is reprogrammed with free will.  One day she's just minding her own business when Monk Melville the Owl tells her the world is in grave danger and since she's only around with any fighting ability she must be the one to save the world (All the other heroes were busy fighting real villains).  Since all the good weapons were already taken Gail is given the Magical Yo-yo of Whimsy.  She is then sent off to battle the evil bison Riker who has stolen the Pendulum of Fate and is using it's power to alter space and objects into his world.

On the way to Riker's gigantic flying Fortress of Villainy, Gail stops to buy an Ice cream cone.  This act of desert purchase inspires an Ex-bodyguard android (Kyro) to once again fight for justice.  Sadly Kyro is also an alcoholic which is why he lost his job in the first place.  Regardless he joins Gail and they both board Riker's impractical flying Castle thing.

While there Gail and Kyro must battle Riker and his deadly employees. There's: Megaton Bubba the Iron Elephant, Hat Trick the Magical Frog, Silent Cry the Ninja rooster, and Bosses 4 5 & 6 who I'm still working on.  As the two (sorta) heroes battle evil Gail will unlock the true abilities of the Magical Yo-yo of Whimsy and Kyro will come out of his hangover and slowly remember how he used to fight.

2-D side scrolling plat former/adventure game. 2 player Co-op available.  rated something due to alcoholic content I'm sure.

Sounds like it will be rated EC nub.

Oh, if you were smart you would know that robots get drunk if they don't drink lol. So since the partner is an alchoholic he is normal. Taking away his alchohol and getting rid of his hangover would make him drunk, one again, nub.

The story kinda sounds... predictable with a side of total nonsense and queerness.  But the gameplay sounds like it has potential.

The story is simply a farce.  An excuse to poke fun at other plot holes in video games.

Like why would you send your weaker minions to kill someone if you're so strong you could probably kill them at the beginning of their quest? 
How does one travel their own castle when it's filled with spike pits and other death traps?
Why would you leave power-ups laying around instead of giving them to your minions?
Why are monsters carrying around 125 gold anyway? And how do they hold money when some of them have no thumbs and others don't even have hands?

Good questions lol.  Yeah, you can make it a great farcical game if it's done right. :P

I like the Story just ridiculous enough to be considerd old school without sounding cleche.
