And a Niji no Umi: Arena section gets added!(Info)

[Nanie]

Niji no Umi: Arena is my latest project. It is a pretty neat one, and it is so awesome I can't wait to run it. Every day it expands more and more, and yet remains so complex people can even run it while I am not there.

My intentions for this are to make a series of reference guides so people can play as they want. The way this goes is when people meet certain requirements and trigger the proper events, the next 'Act' is set.

An 'Act' is a period where the Era did not quite change, but if it were a chapter in a book it would have turned. Something where plot twists and turns, but the time period is the same. After enough 'Acts' are done, a new Era will trigger, sending technology and other things into an incredible change.

I need to do several things to make this playable to MY specification. By playable, I mean enough to mess around with and not really play the main story yet.

Necessary Ingredients for Beta Testing:

A Complete Feats List (At least enough for people to have much more versatility, I'm thinking about three times what I've got right now)

To Finish my Skill System (I haven't done enough for people to successfully craft skills. I have the system itself down, I just need to make more keywords for it. I need to finish the nearly done Target spell list, then make the physical list and self list.)

Make quite a few more encounters (The ones I have right now can suffice, but I want more diversity. This needs to rock harder!)

Design my Building System to where it's fluid and coherent (It must make sense, and it must kick ass.)

Finish my NPC list for Era 1-3 (Then we can go through some of the Eras, and it won't be limited to the starting age.)

Complete the Human Bloodline system (I need to basically make there be the chances of having descendants and stuff. You'll see what I mean.)

Populate forests with different grades of wood (And make it where you can harvest them accordingly)

Populate mountains with different grades of metals (Necessary for technological advancement as created by the players)

Then Beta Testing can commence, as far as I am concerned. While the Beta Testing is going on, I will be making stuff for the later generations and expanding what I currently have down for the game.

Any suggestions go ahead and throw them at me, they may very well likely end up in here! The most popular growing list today is our Feats list. Read it over and if you have any good ideas submit them to me via PM or write them to the group "Unlimited Nanie Works" on Facebook, either on the wall or via mail.

Your ideas I take seriously and I intend to make this as versatile as possible. Don't be afraid to get involved!

Hmmm some ?'s and some helpful suggestions can we build houses/structures of some kind or even to the extent of possibly a store where we can sell stuff and is there a social ladder as in mayors town leaders and if so are they npc's or can a player become one and one thing I would be extreamly interested in would be a pet system or an animal companion that has abilitys to do actions and may if raised right be helpful and I don't know what kind of creatures or people u have to fight against to lvl but is it posible to befriend or dominate them into slavery a possibility maybe?

Way ahead of ya! I am also working on ways to tame pets (or capture and break them or what not) but also as NPCs have stat growths per level as well, you can try to capture basically anything, if you are trying it right. Also, the building system is meant for you to do whatever you wish with it, and building a shelter is a good idea. The setting of Era 1, Act 1 is right after the world basically got shoop da woopded by the god Ryuno. The planet is in a crappy state and all that's left is a single continent. There's only really one town with anything much to its name, and that's basically just a bit of food, access to clean water, and available houses as most of the residents died during the "Rainbow Ocean" event. Technology level is pretty much zero. What you guys start with as available equipment is pretty much what survived the blast.

During the rebuilding stage, when people scout out and secure locations for suitable materials and metals, they can clear a path from that spot to the main town (or theirs if they went off and started one) and slowly raise technology levels. Remember that one game where you had the ability to shoot several beams of fire in random directions? That was the original concept for this game. You, Corey, and like fifteen other people at our High School were in on the game. Or maybe you were the one who fought someone in the Shrine of Hitomi. That may actually have been Joel, but that will show him what for. I think he got Falcon Punched out.

I believe in that game I could either summon or befriend a bird every so often and I was in the middle of building an army of them but awesome I can't wait to get my char started on some projects first on my list is probably lokking around for a suitible place to start building

[Nanie]

Oh yea, Corey's was the one with the beam attack. Joel had the gravity punch which sent people randomly backward, banging into objects for damage. Well I'm glad you're interested. I can't wait to see what you build and do in this game. ^_^

[Lucky]

Maybe ill be the wierd random guy who builds a village with no people then build stick men and try to animate them to act real lol

[Nanie]

That would be epic! DO IT! Make a crazy! Then make his goals reality! xD

[Lucky]

Lol I think im gonna try it we will see what happens a whole functioning village with a store and a inn everything run by stick men muhahahahahaha maybe I can find some one to help me

[DeviousPaper]

So I didn't really get too much outa that description, sorry I'm kinda dull ^-^; but like, how does this game play out? Is it like a Civilization game where you help an era grow? Or is it like any other ppgs?

[Nanie]

Sorry for my dormancy lately. This follows the old Rainbow Ocean story I wrote. Basically, you all just play and enjoy one setting. After some time passes and certain criteria is met, events will be enacted which will shift the time to the next step in the story.

I haven't given up on this project btw.
