I spent about 5 hours to get an good idea for the theme.<\/p>\n <p>The name of the game will be &#8220;Land of Discovery&#8221;, and the concept is:<\/p>\n <ul>\n <li>You(Maybe a knight good at sword and magic) are trapped in a strange land.<\/li>\n <li>Here, you will constantly discover something(e.g. a new discovery for every 10s).<\/li>\n <li>The discovery will be totally random: a stone platform to stand on, a monster to fight, a recovery potion&#8230;<\/li>\n <li>When LV up, you will get a chance to increase your forecasting skill or battle skill. Forecasting skill will give you a chance to forecast the discovery in the near future(e.g. you forecast you will encounter a monster in 10s, however you don&#8217;t know the type of the monster.)<\/li>\n <li>You need to combine the discoveries to achieve the goal of current game level, e.g. kill a dragon or arrived at some place.<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <p>I&#8217;ll use unity as my game engine, but my 3d modeling skill is almost ZERO&#8230; So I think the game world will end up with plenty of primitives.<\/p>","time":"December 18th, 2010 12:24 am","title":"My 1st LD, Land of Discovery"}
