Raeon

So I've been working on an idea for a game called Raeon.  I have a full synopsis, as well as a good portion of the game script written.  I will only, however, show you the first scene of the game's script/planning.  If you would like to know why, just check the earlier post, "As you can see..."  In Raeon, absolutely every action changes the storyline.  Yes, this will result in a shorter story, but it will also result in nearly endless replayability value.  So without further ado, here is the opening scene of Raeon:

Raeon:  Man… a funny word.  To the human race, the word “man” usually refers to one’s sex.  In addition to being “humans,” however, they also like to refer to themselves as “mankind.”  They refer to their own era as the “age of man.”  They lay claim to this sexual orientation as if sex were determined by race, perhaps in an attempt to emasculate other sentient and/or more intelligent beings… perhaps not.  It’s funny how a word can have such unintended meaning and impact.  Not that this matters much.  If Earthspeak hadn’t become the primary language of the galaxy, this thought wouldn’t even be crossing my mind; but I digress.  Simply assuming one is using the word in its general meaning – the one that refers to sex – there comes a time in every man’s life when he has to make a crucial decision.  For my race, that decision is usually easy, because that decision is usually defined by the difference between one’s own life and death.  There is the rare exception, though…

Move to player decision time.  Raeon is looking from a scope onto what appears to be some sort of political rally.  In the scope, you see a man (not a human man, but some sort of alien man) speaking at a podium.  Time slows and he is outlined as “the target.”  On your left (his right) is outlined a “rival assassin” who is about to make his move with a knife up the sleeve of his left wrist.  On the other side are two mercenary types, outlined as “bodyguards.”  When the player highlights “the target” with the cursor, an explanation appears:

            Samson Eldor.  Leader of the Second Kelleron Fleet.  He is your target, as well as the target of others.  For the first time you are torn about whether or not you should carry out your mission.  You can try to kill him before the other assassins have a chance (Highly difficult due to the stage and podium’s barrier drives, as well as the bodyguards), you can let the other assassins have him, or you can take out the other assassins in the hopes it will scare the target into running from the podium, allowing you a clear shot.  Whatever you do, there will be obvious repercussions.  Waiting too long will result in another assassin killing the target, and killing or allowing the target to be killed will result in a lack of leadership on one side of a two-species war for a planet’s control, which would result in the perception that you have chosen a side.  Letting him live and/or killing the other assassins will result in future attempts at your life for losing the ability to carry out a mission, and will also potentially result in the perception that you have chosen a side.

**It is at this point that the player is given about five seconds to decide what to do and to act as fast as possible.  All decisions lead to a different story path that will be taken**

Biff and Buff Save the World

Now.  So for those of you who do NOT know about it, Biff and Buff Save the World is the movie event of the millennium.  It is an idea I came up with a while back that will blow all others out of the water.  Your basic description is an extreme action comedy, emphasis on the "extreme."  There are guns, guns, guns, and there're a lot of heads exploding... literally.  Biff Bullets and Buff Mirahdenbawls kick ass and say "why take names?" in this  modern marvel as they tear through waves of henchmen and chase danger until it leads them to an evil plot in the last five minutes of the movie.  So let's get to it... the moment you (I) have been waiting for... Here is the first scene of Biff and Buff Save the World:

(scene:  warehouse)
(Biff is relentlessly beating a random man on the ground.  Blood is spattered on his face, and more keeps flying up.  When it goes to the overhead view, you see that Biff is now beating a pool of blood where there used to be a head)
Biff:  I'm only gonna ask you this one more time
(Biff pulls out a gun and places it on the dead body's chest.  Enter Buff.)

Buff:  Nice guns.

Biff:  Thanks (they have an identical set of pistols).

Buff:  So what exactly are you doing here?

Biff:  Killin’ everyone who gets in my way.

Buff:  And what way might that be?

Biff:  That’s what I’m tryin’ to find out.

Buff:  … I like your style… (squats next to Biff and the dead body, picks burger wrapper out of body’s pocket) LET’S ROLL!  (they hop on identical motorcycles)

I realize this is just a short little tidbit, but for all intensive purposes, Biff and Buff Save the World comes to you in many tidbits of background and actions scenes.  If you would like to read a serious action sequence from the movie, please comment about it.  Either way, I hope you enjoyed what you just read.  Next time on the Dialogue of Doss is...

As you can see...

For those of you who have not been following me... i.e. everyone... I have not posted a thing on this blog in the almost year that I have had it.  So here's the thing:  I am currently unemployed, I have graduated college and the coming year looks like it's going to include a lot of nothing for me unless I seriously start taking steps to prevent that.  So to push myself even as little as one step forward, as opposed to the zero steps I have been taking for the past four years, I will begin using this blog as an intro page to my works.  I will begin posting the first chapters of stories, the first levels of games, the first scenes of movies, etc. that I write.  I would like it very much if my imaginary readership would comment on the scenes, chapters, ideas and what not.  I would also like it very much if said imaginaries would spread the word of this blog so it can generate a real readership.  I believe it will be most appropriate for me to start you all off with the first scene of Biff and Buff Save the World, so I will stop this post where it is and start a new one riiiiiiiiight...
