Furry Islanders Games
8 years ago
Before I start, let Me add that I wrote this on Furry Amino, and copied it here. For my new watchers, I thank You all for adding Me to Your list, and I apologize for my uploads not being very frequent due to life reasons, plus scanner being broken and phone cam being a lazy way to do things, and my cam may also have issues of it's own.
Thought I'd write about hypothetical furry islanders games. As You may not yet be aware of, I love imagining my own videogames to associate with my world. I create (non textured) low-polygon 3D models as a passtime, which might be a symptom of a desire to play said games. I can't make games per say, and I'm afraid I do require assistance with them if, and when I begin. Sad, but I may overcome these obstacles.
I notice there are a few games made for, by, or with the furry fandom in mind. It's good, except I seldom find an interesting one (that's not a naughty game). The good ones are usually made by non-fandom actors (Dust: An Elysian Tail, Jazz Jackrabbit 2, Soratorobo, Sly Cooper) and games by people admitably from the fandon usually make those... Well... Bunch of reading in what appears to be a point and click adventure game, with charactera being static pictures without a voice. That, or really small flash games that may be unable to be played after flash comppetely disappears. Of course, I do find rare examples of something else. I have seen amazing jrpg games which let Me explore their world and properly battle monsters, unlike the static point and click nature of aforementioned meh games. There is also a fighting game for furries in the making, which is amazing. Overgrowth, a 3D adventure fighting game also promises much, if it gets finished and released at all.
But there's a game I don't see much in the fandom: first person shooters. Correct Me if I'm wrong.
A Furry Islanders game would essentially be one of such, with old monsters from bionicle and new monsters, as well as more hukanoid baddies on a lookout to eliminate the player. Since Furry Islanders is essentially a "Bionicle FanFic" world, the presence of Bionicles is of course a given (free game, anyone? Since I dont own bionicle, at all). And magic/supernatural elements saturate Furry Islanders to the brim. There are Three or Four possible points of the storyline I believe that the game(s) can take place in. As You may or may not already read on any of my ramblings (anywhere) then You may know a few scenarios.
1- The 22nd century Earth is in the middle of a Cold War. The planet is mostly in a state of anarchy, and the more civilized regions are controlled by the Crusader Empire, Union of Communist Eurasia, And the Collective of Oceania (names may change), all dystopian by nature. However, some sovereign states do exist independently, with Visper-Nui, a large island in the Atlantic Ocean having the reputation of the most heavily guarded kingdom. In this world, a strange meteorite falls unto a populated urban area, causing the place to be locked down in quarantine. The meteorite was recovered and brought in, but they pay a price. You are Mylo B. Dakota, known by Your friends by Your nickname "Dr. Beat". A medical student who came here for field practice, to aid a dangerous experiment which could result in injury, or worse. Then, everything went down into chaos, as You struggle Your way out of the facility, uncovering the horrible truth lying beneath Your "Employers" laboratories. (Basically, Half-Life)
2: After said story, things get hot, and Visper Nui's people struggle against a dark, alien enemy. With the big bad revived and back in action, You, Vuk Tempest are a gunslinger-adventure junkie travelling around the island. Between making friends, You discover the source of the invasion, facing foes more powerful than You imagined, while aiding the islanders. Your destiny unknown, and nowhere to call home, you fight on aimlessly, until something sticks.
3: This one would take place in a more familiar earth, as this is the past way before Furry Islanders. (Hence the title: Furry Islanders Origins). The world is at peace after a century of political struggle (Cold War) that ended in 1991. The peace is disrupted by terrorism, however. And crime would be a big problem. But otherwise, almost everything is, or seems normal, until a Matoran, called Nuka, appears to John, an aspiring student in a nearby school of the humble town. With John's aid and Nuka's desperation, the Toa Extreme is formed for a seemingly important job, and they venture into the wild, and somehow, at different points in the world. The Toa Extreme did not get along at all, however, and they pretty much terrorized any unsuspecting person they met in order to finish their goal. Their journey leads them to a world very reminiscent if the underworld, and they do what they were supposed to... Betraying each other and triggering a chain of events that would change the world around You. That's where You, in the Role of John, truly begin Your adventure. With Your life changed and society not welcoming your "kind", you are forced to wander around the world, searching for Your true purpose and Your destiny. All that while you discover that more mutants, like You, began to appear, while a secret conspiracy plagues your journey, and terrorists turning into darker versions of themselves out of nowhere, everything goes horrible.
4: The events of 3 cause Earth to spiral into World War 3. Countries fall apart and new powers emerge, pushing out the old governments. A new island appears in the Atlantic Ocean, after what appears to be a giant fireball falls from the sky into the water. With everyone wanting to get their hands on the new land and it's resources, the future of society is at stake. This "story" takes place between Origins (the prequel) and Furry Islanders (as a whole), and serves as a transition into the latter.
Each scenario would require a different approach.
1 and 3 would have a classic Shooter approach. Dr. Beat (1) would be more like Half-Life mixed with SCP Containment Breach, while John Fox would be given some extras, like a system for elemental powers, interaction with NPCs, vehicles, airboards, etc.
2 would be an fps game with features from Halo and Skyrim (and Fallout, I guess) with weapons and magic attacks available from an equip menu, with 2 weapons equipable at one time. This one would be open world at its core, with many many "dungeons, caves, and all that jazz" to explore. So, this might be the most developed, i guess?
4 remains as a military shooter taking place in the timeline. Enough said.
For Furry FPS, these all sound like cool ideas, what do You guys think? Should fps games be made with furries in mind? Is Vivisector: Beast within even worth mentioning? And are these ideas (blending furry themes with Bionicle) worth making into a game (each)?
