Moldy's Step1: G.A.M.E.S

Well, looks like a few other projects will keep this one in the "casually worked on" mode. Oh well, that's not new to any of us :)


The general overview of my game, codenamed Moldy's:

(G)oals: What is the overall goal of the player?

The player must survive, earn money, gain Prestige, and make it thru all the Missions.


(A)dvancement: How does the player get rewarded?

There are no skills, so a Player does not need to worry about XP. Simply completing a Mission will suffice. Prestige will be rewarded (kinda like the score) and Money is given in the form of payment for services rendered.


(M)odel: How should this world be modelled?

Simple, 2d world using X/Y axis movement. Z axis rotation. Top down view.


(E)conomics: How are resources generated/traded/spent?

Money is used to trade goods/services. It is earned by completing Missions. It is spent at Vendor stores.


(S)tory: How much of the story is integrated into the game?

Fixed Linear plot. Story only progresses between missions.

Me too. Surely you can find some time to keep them coming, Jody!
