Dragonball Shadows: Design Document 2

Posted by santosj on January 16, 2005 Comments Off

I’m updating the Design Document since I won’t have enough time to do everything I had in the first document. The primary focus on this version of the game is just for PvP for players and allow them to gain experience and get new powers and skills. The goal is also to defeat other players in the dragonball universe. I’m going to list the features and areas that I want to have for the players.

Market

I want to allow players to buy supplies here. I also want to allow the players to equip weapons and armor. The focus won’t be weapons and armor but it would still be pretty cool to include them for those that want to have it.

Status

The Status page will list what powers the player has, what attacks have happened to the player. The Navigation will also hold status about health, money, and Ki levels. Also lists the alignment the player is on.

Money will be awarded to the sides that have more wins than the other. That means that if the evil side has more wins against the good side than they get the full $100000 for that day and the other side only gets $50000 for that day. Money will also be given in the training modes and for defeating the enemy.

Training Center

The training center will be the same as in the old Design Document.

Groups

Groups provide added protection to its members so this means that if one member is being attacked than the other members will jump in and help out. That is not to say that everyone in the group will be protected all of the time. It just means that if there is a battle, there is a chance that another team member would jump in. Other team members can also help out with an attack.

Attack

Attacking will be the same, as in the old Design Document.

Oh Crap, wasted time again

Posted by santosj on January 13, 2005 Comments Off

The problem is that, I have wasted a lot of time doing other things and haven’t worked that much on the Dragonball game. It is coming together but is no where near being playable. That being said, I need to start working on Mecha Asylum. What I plan on doing is working as hard as I can and trying to complete the basic features of the Dragonball game and allowing people to attack each other. I will most likely come back to the Dragonball game in the summer when I will have a lot more time to work on the game and make it the level that bobman and I want.

The reason Mecha Asylum takes priority is that it will include premium features and I would very much like to make money off of my hard work. I mean, I won’t make much from the game but a few dollars here and there will help out and would be nice.

Dragonball: Design Document

Posted by santosj on December 29, 2004 Comments Off

I had wanted to complete a lot more in this first version but I’m not going to do that now. I’m just going to put together a simple attack and defend style game that allows you to battle the enemies from the Dragonball universe and have powers and items from the same universe.

This alone will take a couple of months to complete and I will also have to create tools to go with it so that it is easy to add more items and enemies. One thing that I wanted to add but won’t have the time to start or finish is: missions and the cool story line. Once I complete these first scripts and sections I’m going to fix the bugs, go into beta form for the players and fix more of the bugs and then finalize the version. The second version is what will include the missions and new storyline.

Engine Core

Since I have a limited time and don’t wish to spend the time writing all new code I’m going to use the Dragon Knight Game Engine as the core. I’m going rewrite all of the scripts and make them work with my Absidon Games site but the overall design will be based off the DK game engine. I am also going to add some more features and rework some of the design so that it doesn’t suck. I took a look at the scripts and I’m not pleased with the design of them. I also plan on adding a few more features that aren’t included in the game engine: PvP and perhaps Missions.

The game engine includes:

  1. Town Support
  2. Market
  3. Attacking
  4. Status and level
  5. Map Support
  6. Spell Support
  7. Traveling and Random Battles

Sections

* Status Page
* Store
* Space Port
* Training Center
* Attack
* Group
* Missions

Status Page

I want to show the stats of the character and list the attacks and attack points. Also list some news and news from the group the the player is part of.

Market

The market is going to work of the DK game engine and I’m only going to add support for new items and change the page displays. Also add support for new weapons and changes that are unforeseen.

Training Center

Something not in the Game Engine and you have to fight to gain new skills and experience. The Training room will increase skills and what not but there will be limitations and once the player enters they can’t do anything until the training is finished. There will also be a limit to how many times a player can train in a room.

Spirit Room: This is in the series and seems like the most logical addition to the list since it was used a lot in the series.

Gravity Room: Also in the series and I want to add this because it adds a new dimension to training and will test the different attributes of the characters.

Virtual Space Room: the next generation training room that will allow the player to fight against a number of enemies at the same time and battle each of them.

Space Port

The space port allows the player to travel to different planets with their own ship or use the game space travel ship for a price and extra time. The space port also alones the player to fill up on energy to get to the destination. Certain ships allow training to be done in the ship so that the player can do something while they wait.

Group

I want to allow players to join a group and allow group battles against a team of enemies. It will also allow the team to use the same ship to get around and put each others money together to buy some big things. I think it would be extremely interesting to have this in the game and then expand on it later on with missions that can only be done with a group.

Attack

Tournament

These battles I want to create to allow two players to test their skills against each other, no matter the alignment. It will take a little longer because each player has to wait for the other player to respond to the enemy attack before they can go on. It could take a while but that is the main point of the tournament, it takes a lot of involvement on the players part to coordinate the attacks and what not.

The winner also gets a lot of money from winning and some other things that I have yet to decide.

Player vs Player

This depends on alignment and if a good player attacks another good player then the player can risk turning evil from the feedback. I want to allow players to pick defense attacks for when another player attacks them. The player can gain experience and money from the player if they succeed in their attack.

Player vs Bad Guy

This is much like the training room except the player can die. A lot more experience points and money is taken from this battle mode than the others.

Missions

Missions are self contained, meaning that the player has a set of goals that accomplished inside of the mission page so there is no need to go outside of the mission page. Any goals set will be saved for when the player returns to the mission page. The only exception is for missions that take place on a certain planet, the player will either have to go to that planet and wait for further instructions or they have to travel to a city and talk to a NPC.

There are some missions that will be hard coded and will take time to create but others will be available without a storyline and give a certain amount of experience points for completing.

* Search for Dragonballs
* Defeat a number of enemies
* Job related

Hard coded Missions are ones that will take the most time to create and will follow a storyline with a number of sagas and new enemies to defeat. I still have to write up the story and sagas and create the enemies. Look for this in version two.

Jobs

Jobs determine what you extra tasks you can do within the game world. There will be missions for each job and allow the player to do special things. I will have to decide what the tasks and items recieved are, most likely will take it from player suggestions.

* Merchant
* Warrior
* Healer
* Planet Guardian
* Assassian
* Rogue
