I was actually imagining it as a mix between Megaman and Castlevania.

There are drawbacks when developing it, but the multiple worlds allows there to be completely different art styles as well as other things, not just the gameplay. Its like creating minigames, except the minigames actually have some effort put into them. And this way, people of all walks of gaming genres can still find a part that will fit into their niche.

I like the idea, but I can understand why it shouldn't be done. What does everybody else think about it?

The way I see it is that we're going for quantity over quality. Like are we actually shooting to make a great game here? Or are we just screwing around?

ALSO, I read everything and if people are going to make different types of levels (that's what we planed), we need to know the choices. here is what we noted so far:

But that's alright. The story that Nicknclank put out (which is what I'm going with until/if we get something better) would still work either way.

So what would everyone want the gameplay to be? I'm still a fan of a Megaman/Castlevania/Metroid-esque action/adventure/platforming thingy. Plus, 2d is (in my limited experience), much easier to do than 3d, but doesn't necessarily make any major sacrifices.

It starts with a dialogue that doesn't go any faster just so it follows the build up of the music, at around 1:10 he starts transforming and then at around 1:30 the dialogue ends, the boss who is now in it's true form (something that looks like pure evil) start to fly a few feet from the ground and at 1:35 the battle really begins.

It would be epic

Many thanks
I'll note down what everyone says about the pieces to make sure we don't forget

I'll look into it

Thanks it's just I have a level idea and I want the music to have a kind of ambience yet be rock infused, I'm almost certain that whatever you create I will be impressed with regardless!

We do need to figure out specifically who is doing what, but we also need to decide on some kind of over-arching idea of the entire game. That way we we at least have an idea of what each person's goal is.

(Regardless, dibs on ninja-steampunk level if there is one)
