The Fourth Realm | Story Writing Discussion
Yeah, I think that's the best idea.That's what I was thinking, actually. I completely agree.we should wait on 5_g to tell us which we should make though. I'm actually fine with either since either can be woven in with the rest of the story.
I’m a really underrated coder/artist! I fix up people’s old games and would LOVE to hear about any underrated games.

I think that we should focus less on the time periods thing and more on the theme of the realms themselves, the desert can be like a steampunk industrial place and the ocean can futuristic for asthetic purposes to set it apart from the other realms, and the forest can be medieval.Yeah, I think that's the best idea.That's what I was thinking, actually.

We dont have to focus on the time period at all to do with the realm, but it could add some cool mechanics where if you change one thing in the forest (past) it effects the ocean (future)

OH YEAH! So the player has to complete one realm to unlock the other! We dont have to focus on the time period at all to do with the realm, but it could add some cool mechanics where if you change one thing in the forest (past) it effects the ocean (future)

Game developing time! They can start in the forest, (past) and work their way to the desert (present-ish) and then go to the ocean (future). After they unlock all three, they can freely move throughout them. They can also go back to any of the unlocked ones if they are trying to get to the next one.OH YEAH! So the player has to complete one realm to unlock the other! We dont have to focus on the time period at all to do with the realm, but it could add some cool mechanics where if you change one thing in the forest (past) it effects the ocean (future)
EXAMPLE:
The player is currently in the desert, and trying to unlock the ocean. They go back to the forest to get some sort of clue that will help unlock the ocean. After they unlock the ocean, they go back to some key place in the desert and figure out how to get to the fourth realm. Note: that doesn't have to be what happens, just an example. It also shouldn't take too long, since the game mainly focuses on the fourth realm. There should be some auto-saving, too, because it seems this game will take a while.

unfortunately, due to the limits of cloud variables, this isn't really possible, but we can still add a save system There should be some auto-saving, too, because it seems this game will take a while.
(yes autosaving can be added, but for only like 20 - 30 players at most depending on how many variables would need to be saved)
And also, i think their actions in the forest should affect the desert, and actions in the desert and forest affect the ocean, that's not really a necessary addition, but it would be cool!

I recommend reading jvvg's essay about the scratch team before complaining, as it may change your opinion and provide insight on the topic.
coming soon :)

would we hard code this in, or should i use some lists algorithms to calculate what should happen based off of each action (apart from the story line) should do?With this feature, we could add endless replay value.YEAH!OH YEAH!

Do you guys want a coding thread so as not to clog up the main or story writing…?

when I receive [an action by the player v]
add [outcome] to [list of outcomes v]
when I receive [enter forest realm v]
if <[list of outcomes v] contains [a certain result] ?> then
broadcast [change something in the forest realm v]
add [forest realm change 1] to [list of outcomes v]
end
