Doom chronicles

[bluereaper75 0]

My first big project (just started yesterday) is going to be a spinoff of the game "Doom 2" acting as a prequel. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the plot of Doom 2, it concerns a demonic invasion of earth after a teleportation experiment on mars goes horribly horribly wrong. Its set during the events of Episode 4 from The unlitmate Doom (an expansion of the original doom) and will end were the main game of Doom 2 begins.

 

Basic storyline wise, It concerns the early days of the demonic invasion from a civilian point of view. The main character is a construction worker who wakes up one day to find the city being overrun by demons. He sets out to protect his girlfriend and other survivors and ultimately escape from the city.

 

I have the story pretty much planned out with bullet points now, and i have a general idea on the level design. Im working on fleshing out the characters and story while i gather resources (sprites, backgrounds, tilesets, ect.)

 

I will have more information as I develop it. I appreciate any questions/critique

Is it gonna be scripted to play in 1st person like the other Doom games? That'd be cool.

Well it is being done in RMXP so shouldn't it be an RPG? xD

For some strange reason i've seen people create non-rpg's in the RMXP system. Why i have no clue. <_<

I once had an idea like this. Make an RPG with Doom contents. However, I lost interest, which was a shame, because I spent quite a deal of time fixing some of the textures and monsters to work inside an RPG format. If you'd like, I could perhaps, post up the tilesets I rigged. They aren't the greatest in the world, but they're directly taken from Doom, so they're content-specific for this type of project.

Haha,yeah. I was actually making a semi-sarcastic joke, considering so many people complain that RMXP can't do this or that when its supposed to make RPGs, not FPSs.

It would be cool to see a FPS scripted game on RPG Maker, don't you think? It would be something fresh and unique to bring to the table. Granted, most people would make an RPG with an RPG Maker. That only makes sense. But then again some people (like me) who want to make something different but don't know how to use other makers will use RPG Maker just because of its simplicity. But either way, FPS Doom or RPG Doom, I'm still gonna play it!

I've seen one before, I cant remember what it was called, it was pretty amazing though.. it had mouse controls and everything, the only problem was that the gun-angle wasnt entirely free and would only snap to certain positions and it was in German, I think, so I could barely make out what it was.

 

I think that a Doom-RPG would be great. Leerox4eva1 tried making one about a year back and I made him a few charactersets. Next time I see him I'll get him to log on and maybe send them to you? Im not sure if they're from Doom or Doom 2, I think the normal Doom.. Anyway, I'd look forwards to a demo.
