>i as a player want to know what is plot of game

obviously I am not going to spoil the entire plot of the game for very obvious reasons

but I understand your concern

you're asking WHY you should play my game

well my game is primarily one of a kind

It's a CRPG set in ancient India

it's all about mauryan ascendancy

consider it a historical fanfiction

you help chankaya and chandragupta maurya ascend to the throne and defeat the greek invaders

>how do i make a choices

just like every other CRPG

you will have 2 always choices one good and one bad but the rest will depend according to your stats

certain choices are exclusive according to your stats

It will definitely feature a morality system and it will affect the story line too

>can i crack it

crack as in piracy ?

I don't care about piracy

if anything it will give publicity to the game

but if you meant crack as in to cheat

don't worry my game will have a strict set of attributes that you can max in a single play through

for example even if you pick the maximum number of strength points available in the game for the player character there are going to be some other characters whose stats are always going to be greater than yours

so even if you cheat using a cheat engine or something

you will only hurt yourself

for example if you have strength 5 and it you tired cheating and give yourself 10 then the enemy will now have 20 instead of 10

Enemies stats will always scale with you so you never be OP

primarily my game will involve around gathering various allies and factions that will help you over throw the nandas and help chandra gupta maurya become king

you won't be playing as him for very obvious reasons

number 1

I don't want to get into religious, political or other shit flinging contests so no you won't be playing as him

number 2

both chandragupta maurya and chanakya are pre existing characters with their own goals and motivations

so players can't self insert

if you create your own custom character and make choices with those than a pre existing character it will better help the role playing aspects of the game

I can theory craft all day about this game but unless I find help with coding its a non starter

and If you want to visualise imagine what kind of game it would look like i am perfectly ok with this game being a text based or 2D only game but ideally I would like it to be a 3D or isometric game like orginal fallout,underrail or even modern ones like tyranny or pillars of eternity

this is good, i tried but it actually just doesnt feel good to me and i wanna try game dev now and pick it up as my side interest when i start wageslaving, i will likely be alone for years.

>it actually just doesnt feel good to me

>i will likely be alone for years

solo game dev is very hard even if you're a CS jeet

>ml

what's ml ?

>you’re going after chankya’s neetis in your game?

yeah that's the idea

chanakya will sort of be the narrator of the game explaining to his students how decades ago you helped over throw the king and your actions will be used as an example to by chanakya to teach and explain his neetis in being used scenarios that the player character makes

for what example you could be a brutal but a pragmatic player or a good natured and naive player

>rpg games are different

>what is skill in your game

it will be a heavily stat based game like classic fallout

for example fallout even the latest 3D ones like fallout 4 has various stats like strength,luck , agility,charisma etc

and according to those stats everything changes from being able to carry more or use certain items to picking certain choices that are available only for certain stats

If it was a purely 2D game then yea it's pretty much it a stat dice roll check for everything for ingame from combat to dialogue

there will be constant stat checks based on your build and random number generator aka dice roll

but I managed to make it 3D

that's where the skill aspect of it becomes more complex

you will now be able to pick classes and use weapons that are exclusive

for example a strength based character will be able to wear armour, wield heavy weapons like maces

meanwhile a stealth or agility based character will move faster

have more chances to do sneak attacks or dual weild etc

or you can play as purely a envoy type character who can't fight but depends on other party members in combat but you will have more dialogue and conversation options

For what example since you're diplomatic character you will be able to speak foreign languages or convince/ persuade others easily because your primary skill is charisma

2D is easy to make by there is no special "skill" required to play the game

3D is a hard to make but you can have various builds for the game
