cyberpunk rpg video game in creation
« on: August 09, 2005, 10:30:24 PM »

I'm working on making a cyberpunk rpg video game because I hate how rare cyberpunk video games are. The one's that do exist either suck or are too linear. Anyways the site and forums are very ghetto because I'm doing everything by myself and I have no income but I should very soon and will be able to pay for a real host and domain.

Anyways it currently has no population but I'm hoping to change that and get some help. My main ideas from the game have been inspired by the genesis version of Shadowrun (my favorite game of all time) but with original story, art, etc. The gameplay will be somewhat similar is the main thing.

Also I'm not an expert cyberpunk guy so maybe some people to help out with some ideas of things to put in the game. I already have quite a bit of progress into it and I don't plan for it to turn into another dead internet project (like all the free mmos and FPS mods).

Well if you guys have any interest come check out the ghettoness at www.bigbagofthings.bravehost.com

'ghettoness' is a great word to use when you want someone to check out your site!!!

Hehehe, jk.  I checked it out and it does remind me of the SNES Shadowrun game like you say.  More kinda top view than 3/4 view but hey I'm not complaining ;)

Keep us posted!

Cyberpunk was my first real role play experience. I'd try your game.

Of course, post-apocalyptic is much better.

*ahem*

In any case, I applaud your efforts at freelance game design.  We'll help in any way that we can, of course.  If you need some... inexpensive... cyberpunk resources, just drop me a line.

OH!  And as long as we're listing things, we need plot devices for:

  • Kidnapping.
  • Drug and alcohol abuse.
  • Prostitutes.
  • Random acts of violence.
  • Flamethrowers.
  • Aliens.
  • Plenty of gratuitous cursing.
  • Slavery.
  • Porn films.
  • Little kids you can shoot and steal from.

Oh, ah... wait.  We already have that one; it's called Fallout.

Well, just fit in as much of the list as possible...

Yeah, too bad Black Isle is deader than an abat (Phillipino Vampire) on the back of a humpback whale.

I imagine it burns them and does a light wound.

I made a "Salt Spray" elemental salt water effect that added +1 pain modifier to characters with Physical wounds. I imagine in this case, the spell would do extra damage. The spell itself was considered two elementals and thus had a higher drain code.

Made a paranormal hunter that used a modified Metal elemental effect to make a Silver elemental effect for hunting shapeshifters. Boy was he surprised when he encountered a Warek.
