Idea: Tentacle Dominion
« on: February 27, 2010, 11:21:36 PM »
Sometimes you get an idea so strong you have to write it down.
 
This is mine, made after several topics that boiled down to:
Why don't people enjoy tentacles or monsters?
Why don't such things 'win' often?
Why, in Slave Maker, must we be submissive to Beasts?  There is little option to command or even lightly control them.

It reads more like a design document.  I have no means to turn it into reality, but maybe I can find someone.

It's an interesting idea.  If you are sufficiently motivated, there are resources out there to help you learn programming skills so you can develop it yourself.
Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my uncle Jack off a horse" and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse."

I did a bit of rough work for a flash game based on this sort of idea, just before I started working on WM. The idea was that you played a sort of sentient germ, expelled from an alien dimension for Crimes Against Almost Everything and unwittingly rescued by a physics experiment. The idea was to infect, control and mutate your hosts, and then start breeding and accumulating biomass. And yeah, I wanted to do it house by house and street by street.

This was going to be my "hero" :)

That's some awesome concept of a new kind of hero  :D
Looking forward to playing this great game.

I think zodiac44 will like this game very much. Since hero looks a lot like Cthulhu ,Lord of the city of R'lyeh.

well... i don't know about bloodly, but I'm not going to be doing any work on it for the foreseeable future. I start my new job tomorrow, and if I do find any coding time, I still want to add Lua integration to WM.

But someday ... :)

If bloody or someone would make this game I would totally follow its development like Im a crack head
