Some of you may remember me from previous iterations of the game.dev forums. Well I'm back, but not quite for good. I have too much on my plate atm to do heavy game dev, but my creative brain still works, so i have a game idea to share with you today.
I have only written out a summary, feel free to elaborate as you see fit. I thought of this design for a platformer, but any game genre goes. I'm basically releasing this under public domain, but there are a few minor restrictions. Firstly I would like to know what your progress is. Secondly I must be able to play this game. Notice the "must" ;) Here goes:
You are a time consumer. They were ancient artifacts created to serve the <> lord of <>. The <> lord feared the power of the time consumers and ordered them to be destroyed. You are the only time consumer. At you core is a time crystal. To react your revenge on <> lord, you set out to gather all the time crystals and become the most powerful being in all of <>.
A time crystal enables you to freeze time for a while. The more time crystals you have the faster they recharge and the longer you can use them.
To do damage to enemies: you can punch them horizontally or kick them up. You can also attack objects in the levels. Enemies can shoot you with large missiles or try cut you with swords. Touching a missile or sword normally will cause you major damage, but when time is frozen, you can touch or even jump on them.
My only worry about this idea is that it may be a tad limiting. Enjoy! :)
