New Rozen Maiden game

[Suiseitou]

Starting a topic on new RM themed games. Most realistic options are either a bullet hell or a visual novel/era like trainer. Post your ideas and stuff you made below!

RPG or tower defense may work, the game play is simple enough in most cases.

Tower defense is a great idea for a small game to sharpen some game making skills. I will look into it.

Even a simple RPG requires a lot of effort both in coding and in making of assets, but we can use something similar to RPG maker(but a bit more modern) to not code everything from the ground up.

The best part. We can write it from scratch or just use a game engine. Or any option in the middle.

There are many tools and frameworks for Godot(fun fact: they come as Godot games!) that allow you to make RPGs or VNs very easily. Of course this being a legitimate engine also gives some flexibility to change those templates.

I do not fine lots of game that utilize Maiden's spirit powers :/

Well don't forget that Shinku and BOKU can shoot their spirits right in their opponents FACE in ALiBAT!

I think the tricky part, is integrating them into game play. Hinaichigo's strawberry vines, Kirakishou's white roses and rose vines, Kanaria's violin, Suiseiseki's watering can, don't exactly lead to really intuitive game play set-ups. (In most game types.)

RPG can work well if you make it where you need the Maidens to make it past the many obstacles, where 1 or 2 of them can pass it with no ill effect, another 1-2 can perhaps bypass it with an effect and the rest is uncrossable, unless with special items.

You've arrived at the Castle Walls.
You're given 5 options:
1. Ask Suiseiseki to use her watering can on the plant near the wall.
2. Have Hinaichigo use her strawberry vines to make a ladder.
3. Have Kanaria attempt to bring the walls down. (You might go deaf.)
4. Ask Suigintou to try to fly you across the walls. (You might leave the rest of the party behind or she may drop you.)
5. Ask Shinku to use her rose petals to lift you across the walls. (You might get slapped and you will get dizzy.)

It's a nice idea but first we have to think if we should make it 2d(lots of work making addons, unless we steal from the old spitesheets) or text based. For text based we can use any MUD engine, this way it can even be multiplayer. I have no idea how it would work for more players than there are waifus to choose though

[Suiseiseki-Desu]

We can start with text based game. This way we can use a MUD engine or even a bot. We can work on the core game play first and worry about assets later. Multiplayer would be very nice.

I believe we should first figure or work out some mini-games, since they are easy. We could either extend those games or add them into other works later.

EPIC GAME MAKING WILL BEGIN!!!!!!!
