My Game Creations

You know how sometimes there’s a game that you really like … and the developer hasn’t made a sequel for it? Or if there’s a huge flaw in a game that you think you can fix up?

Well, I’ve gotten those feelings a lot in the past, and so I came up with a couple of my own ideas for a game. But back then, they were more of a lingering thought, than something I’d bother to record down on paper.

So now, I’ve decided to share it with the Internet – here’s a list of some of my ideas:

·         A sequel to an old RPG called Sudeki – a game called Sudeki II (obvious much)

·         A minigame collection – and I haven’t found a name for it.

·         A fantasy/sci-fi shooter - and I’m thinking up of names

·         A spin-off for Dead or Alive; more specifically the character Kasumi

Granted, it’s not much of a list, but these are growing ideas. I’ve spent most time on Sudeki II, mostly because it was my first idea. Here’s a little introduction:

Sudeki II

Now, the first Sudeki was pretty mediocre– it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t mind-blowing either. Somehow, I took a weird liking to it, and I really wanted to know more about it. And one day, an idea hit me; I could just make up Sudeki II myself! And back then, I didn’t have much of a life either.

Might I add that the cover girl seems to have a fear of clothing...

Basically, Sudeki II is an action adventure RPG, like Zelda, and while it’s not as open-ended as the likes of Skyrim, it’s going to have some of the open-world traits of the latter. I’m still working on the plot, but it’ll continue soon after the original, and I’m starting to get a good image of the combat system – it’s going to be like an action game, and after playing a bit of Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, it’s probably going to resemble it. The art direction will follow the first game, and I’ve taken some inspiration from Fable as well.

Minigame Collection

After playing minigame collections like Wii Sport and its sequel, Wario SmoothMoves, Go Vacation, and others, I felt a bit inspired by them. And I also noted the huge list of terrible minigame collections. So I wanted to create a good minigame collection. And that was it.

Something like this ... Except maybe minus the awesomeness of the MotionPlus

I was thinking I’d take a Wii Sport Resort-like take on the game, except with a few touches of Go Vacation, like an explorable island. I was thinking I might take it even further, to even a Sims type game.

Don't ever judge a game by it's cover ... even if it looks absolutely gorgeous.

Fantasy/sci-fi Shooter

I came up with this not too long ago – I was watching a friend play Halo, and after that, I watched Excalibur Brothers do a review on a game called Undying, and those two games gave me some inspiration.

I haven’t really thought the game through – just a few floating ideas that don’t really mesh together. Maybe guns and hands for sci-fi magic?

Dead or Alive spin-off (Kasumi Gaiden?)

After watching one of the Dead or Alive 5 gameplay footages I found on YouTube, I was pretty excited. And Kasumi, one of my favourites, was looking pretty awesome

And after the “bloody disaster” (as quoted by IGN) that was Ninja Gaiden III, I wanted a ninja game that would satisfy my need for action, and a good storyline, as opposed to the confusing betrayal after betrayal in Ninja Gaiden III.

Just imagine this in Ninja Gaiden style...

So I put Kasumi and Ninja Gaiden together which = Kasumi Gaiden!

It’s still a working process, but I’ve had several ideas, like manipulating past and present together for storyline, and exploring in more detail about ninjas, and Kasumi’s clan – the Dead or Alive games didn’t give too many details about the actual ninjas.

You might be hearing about these games later, in my blog, so keep an eye out! It’d also be great if I had opinions too, so if you think something is wrong, or you’d like to suggest something, comment on the article!
