Hello! I’m in dire need of ideas for my RPG (im having a builders block). It’s a space themed map where you and a few friends are trying to save a space colony (or people who live on a moon base, like Space Case) from a bunch of evil martian alien things. Here is what I need:
Roles:
Leader lead you teammates to battle!
Healer drop heals to your teamnates
Tank have great health but low speed
Scout go ahead of your team to scout!
You can have it as a a build a ship. So your planet is being invaded, and you have to escape. Explore the map and find parts to build a ship, craft parts from nearby resources and fight you way through alien hords on you way to escape. That legit sounds like an ad.
Maybe the space colony has an item that the aliens need to do something powerful for evil needs and the aliens are trying to take it from them. The space colony hid on a certain planet but the aliens found them, and surprised them. The space colony does not have the item with them, but they know where it is, and the aliens are planning to take the location from them somehow soon. On this quest, Gim’s home planet and possibly the universe are at stake once the space colony becomes defeated enough to tell the aliens the location of the item.
After you find the space colony and rescue them, they realize you’re a good guy and thank you for saving them but it is too late. One of their guys had just barely gotten the location of the item forced out of them. They tell you where to find it, and it’s a race for the item. If the aliens find it first, the planet, galaxy, or universe is in danger. If you find it first, your mission is successful.
I can’t decide which option is better, but you can decide between one of the two:
The aliens barely beat you to the item, but they have to get through you before they can get to their evil plans (This could lead to an epic boss battle)
You can beat the aliens to the item, and the aliens fight you for possession of that item.
I’m not sure what the item would be. My ideas are:
Galaxy fish
Gimfish
Gold seed
Gimberry
So that’s my idea on storyline I hope you think it’s good because it took me a long while to type it.
I can’t publish the game, sadly, but I will post the showcase link in my bio or something. The name of the game will probably be something like, “The Great Space Caper”.
These are the roles you could put in, if all the abilities are speed, weapon, and heal rate:
Leader: (Easy mode) Heals quick, maybe 4 per second. Kind of powerful weapon, and a decent speed, faster than default.
All-arounder: Has decent healing, maybe 3 per second, a normal speed, and a normal weapon.
Medic: Heals quick, maybe 5 per second, with a kind of weaker weapon and slower speed.
Sniper: Heals kind of slowly, like 2 per second, with a strong weapon and a slower speed.
Runner: Heals kind of slowly, like 2 per second, with a weak weapon and a super fast speed.
Attacker: Does not heal, but is super fast and has a powerful weapon.
New recruit: (Hard mode) Low speed and weak weapon, slow healing, maybe 1 health per second. If you beat the game as New recruit, maybe you can get a secret ending
