Title: 10 Days
Post by: (Hexamin) on March 10, 2010, 02:04:23 pm
Okay, whether it's been done before or not...  Who wants to see a game using ATES that lasts a period of 10 in game days, with huge storyline diverseness and many many many multiple outcomes?

'Cause I may just do it.

Sounds cool. Why ten days? Not that it's a problem, just wondering.

Some games have had time period limitations though I've never played any personally...

I might be wrong, so don't be too harsh if I am... :^_^':
Majora's Mask
Valkyrie Profile

Well just briefly going over it in my mind... say there are 5 potential outcomes for a day, then 5 potential outcomes for each of those outcomes the next day.  Then 5 potential outcomes for the previous day's outcomes.  That's 5x5x5x5... 5^10 if you will.  That's nearly 10 million possible outcomes for 10 days.

Haha, not saying that I'm going that in depth, but I think 10 days could be enough time to have some fun and have some sort of storyline between whatever characters the player comes across.

Edit 1:  And yeah, Majora's Mask is a great game, despite how annoying it was to live 1 day 24931289 times.

And I'm thinking that if a player really wanted to, he could just sit there for 10 days picking flowers, if he really wanted to.

Pikmin had a time limitation, too, and it was awesome. Kept setting me under time pressure and all that stuff.
Go for it, i'd say.

It works best for visual novel-type games. Every dating sim ever pretty much did it.

Uh, go for it. Any RMXP game that's decent is worth making, really.
