Darkforce - Peace Among Nations

Slasher · Tue 05/05/2015 20:09:14

Dark force - Peace among nations

We had a lot of luck on Venus
We always had a ball on Mars
Meeting all the groovey people
We've rocked the Milky Way so far
We danced around with Borealice
We're space truckin' round the the stars
Come on let's go Space Truckin'

Ongoing storyline:

As captain James Dirk you are on a peace mission to the planet Kaliput to represent earth and to hand over earth's 'Peace among nations' policy and to discuss galactic politics with the federation's ambassadors in the hope of reaching amicable agreements.

However, your space craft gets hit by a rogue meteorite just before you land on Kaliput. Your craft crash lands on Kaliput and the crash breaks both your legs and you are unable to attend this vital meeting.

You entrust your faithful droid KP29 to hand over earths 'Peace among nations' policy to the ambassadors.

After KP29 boards the meeting craft on Kaliput to attend the meeting it soon unravels that a coo plans to overthrow the federation with death eggs, break peace treaties and take over as supreme conquerors of the cosmos is in progress.

Can your trusted droid KP29 thwart this evil coo before all hell breaks loose all over the cosmos?

Along the way KP29 meets with all the unusual aliens, makes friends, rouses enemies, gets to do all kinds of things and of course there are plenty of 'goodies' to keep you engrossed

This is slasher: between making AGS games, he makes AGS games.

I like the Predator-chromosome heads-up display. I hope self-detonation becomes an unlockable verb near the final third of the game.

Looks hot!

Keep on truckin'!

And in-between making his in-between games, he finds time to test games and give great advice, in-between. The man is not human but a cyborg himself.

Damn, Slasher. You are the James Patterson of games.

Slasher · Wed 06/05/2015 15:03:05

But i'm all heart

Now to bring on the most vile aliens for this riveting space adventure game

He has found a way to clone himself, at least twice. It's the only rational answer.

A bit slower than actual game play itself in places:

I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with the space exploration sci-fi genre, but when are we going to see another Charles Davenport adventure?

Slasher · Thu 07/05/2015 08:27:17

Hi Gurok,

QuoteI'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with the space exploration sci-fi genre,

You will have to wait to find out what 'goodies' i have in store and i am pulling a few 'stops' out on this game

Quotewhen are we going to see another Charles Davenport adventure?

If previous Charles Davenport games had more feedback on the database page i may consider another epic adventure for Mr Davenport

Meanwhile I am into this 'space' epic as i am not shy to try any genre (DSM for instance).

Game progress: 5% (intro completed)

Darkforce is now completed game wise and now comes the hair tugging, the screaming and the pills: it's testing time and spell/grammar checks... Help calm my nerves, be a tester

Fitz · Wed 15/07/2015 16:59:02

Now that's all fine and dandy -- but when, pray tell, are you going to release that talkie version of JACK, for which I almost tore my vocal cords?

Slasher · Wed 15/07/2015 17:04:24

Hi Fitz,

Quotebut when, pray tell, are you going to release that talkie version of JACK, for which I almost tore my vocal cords?

Almost there. Give it about 4 - 5 weeks....

cheers

So simply you need 1 nano second to complete it?

Looking good slasher

Slasher · Mon 27/07/2015 09:03:19

AnasAbdin

Come on, give me two nano seconds to complete it

The game play is finished. Grammar check in progress and music being composed.

Come on guys, Darkforce needs a play tester or two

AnasAbdin · Mon 27/07/2015 09:16:07

If I test your game this means I'm insulting it

I wanna enjoy it as a 100% player and 0% developer

Slasher · Thu 30/07/2015 10:22:05

DarkForce is now completed with Soundtracks and grammar and spelling checked.

It is now ready for testing.

Help calm my nerves, be a tester
