In a planet far away from Earth, there lived an ancient race of people simply called "Anonymous". They looked exactly like humans, talked like humans, ate like humans, even mated like humans. However, their mind set was different
from that of man. They would consume everything they could, without so much as a "Sorry." After a while, this affected their planet, which began to decay. So, the planet's leader, who was simply called "King", sent a missionary to the planet Earth, with one simple task: to take over the world so they could have the lush, green paradise for themselves.

However, when the missionary landed on the planet, s/he found out that an evil army had begun a hostile takeover of the planet. Needless to say, they were in the way of the missionary's goal. As the visitor from another planet was about to decimate the army's leader, s/he had the displeasure of having a hat fall onto his/her head, which would not come off. At this time, a girl with sky blue hair uttered a single word.

"Douchebag! That guy is such a damn douche!"

This sent the missionary plummeting downwards till s/he hit the ground face first. S/He tried to get the hat off, but to no avail. As s/he stood up, the girl said "Douchebag!" again, causing him/her to plummet... yet again. Realizing this as a great opportunity to have her own personal errand boy/girl, she declared herself "Master" over his/her life. She planned to use the missionary's fighting skills to make a name for herself without much effort.


This is the story of an alien and his/her horrid luck.

LeekSpin is a parody of pretty much every form of popular entertainment, ranging from rap music, to corny anime. A lot of the characters will be cliche, yet have their own, distinct personalities. This is easier to do, due to the fact that all of the main story characters will be people from .org itself, so expect to see a few familiar names.

http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c391/ ... acters.png[/IMG]
You
Gender: Your choice
Race: Anonymous
Weapon of choice: Giant Leek he stole off of a dead officer of the LeekSpin army.
Place of Origin: Planet of the Anonymous
Job: Missionary
Age: Unknown
Personality: Generally grumpy, you dislike having to be the puppet of a mere human. You snap back a lot, and tend to do a lot of mean things. Like kicking puppies; sometimes kittens as well. You're the kind of person who laughs at people who break a leg. You jerk.

Atemu
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Weapon of choice: Bag o' Goodies (Mainly consists of bombs, dice, traps)
Place of Origin: Rosemary (Known as Smokey Pie town)
Job: Con Artist
Age: 23
Personality: Clearly a genius mastermind, it doesn't take her long to realize when she has a free shot at some quick fame or glory. In her free time, she likes scamming people of their hard earned cash, usually through some elaborate scheme. Being without many true morels, it is not completely uncommon for her to rob some poor shmuck of his hard earned gold.

Wingu
Gender: Male
Race: Monkey
Weapon of choice: His own fecal matter/bananas
Place of Origin: A Jungle somewhere
Job: Sidekick
Age: 4
Personality: He's a monkey, so... he acts like a monkey. There isn't much depth to him. He tags along with Atemu, since they have known each other ever since Wingu was born. He will protect her from anything, though he tends to dislike the main character and cause mischief for him/her.

BlueScope
Gender: Male
Weapon of choice: Any kind of ninja tool
Place of Origin: Hidden Ninja Village
Job: Ninja/Failed Ladies Man
Age: 31
Personality: As a ninja, he attacks without warning, leaving no trace of his existence behind. However, as he has lived a solitary life, he hasn't met many women, so his flirting skills are a bit under-developed. He joins the group, having been smitten with Atemu. His pick-up lines tend to be a bit raunchy, as such, Atemu usually responds by throwing a boot at his head.

Yeyinde
Gender: Male (So he says, it's unknown if this is the truth)
Weapon of Choice: Various hunting weapons
Place of Origin: Unknown
Job: Hunter
Age: Unknown, refuses to tell
Personality: He is the definition of enigmatic. He shows no desire to reveal his past to the group. What the group is able to learn is that he is very honorable, and tends to not get involved in the silly antics of the others. He joins the group for the reason of finding the greatest prey, which he presumes is the leader of the LeekSpin army.

Rye
Gender: Amibigious
Weapon of Choice: Large Whisk
Race: Human
Place of Origin: A small mob-run town
Job: Cook for the Mob
Age: 19
Personality: Rye is quick to understand, but at the same time, quick to confuse. Cooking is something Rye has always been good at and Rye specializes in baking different kinds of desserts. Always with a bag of cookies ready to be thrown and the trusty whisk, Rye defends the small restaurant Rye works for.

Rai
Gender: Male? <Unconfirmed>
Weapon of Choice: A stick
Race: Human
Place of Origin: Far to the East
Job: Annoying Easterner
Age: 16
Personality: Rai tends to be incoherent and has a shoddy grip on the local language. He's quick to anger, and always seems to find a stick on the ground. He never seems to expect much from anyone not from the east.

Lackluster
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Weapon of choice: Lit cigarettes & thumbtacks
Place of Origin: Rosemary Villa
Job: Hitman
Age: 17
Personality: Is usually found in backalleys smoking with a bored expression on his face. People think he's anti-social when in reality he just doesn't find any of those useless twats as worth his time. The people he does associate with are, Rye, Atemu, and Yeyinde. He finds Andy6000, Rai, and Bluescope interesting as well, but has never really spoken to them.

Andy6000
Gender: Male
Weapon of Choice: A pistol and a saber
Place of Origin: The Leek Forest Village
Job: Leader of the LeekSpin Army
Age: 61
Personality: He hates everyone and everything. For this reason, he plans to take over the world by killing everyone else (besides, of course, tel). He is very commanding, with the ability to sound like a complete ass to everyone, even the clones of himself that make up the army. He will kill people who are, in the slightest way, annoying or unintelligent. Overall, he's the product of not getting hugged enough as a child.

-The main thing will be that your character will be completely customizable. You'll get to choose his/her gender, hair, color, clothing, etc. This will use the Character Creation script.
-The battle system will be rhythm-based. This is going to be a custom battle system, which is being created by Yeyinde, albeit a bit slowly.
-Custom graphics.

NOTE: Custom graphics or scripts will not be distributed to the public (with the exception, of course, of those that are already public). Please don't ask.

The plaza of Rosemary, the village you crash land into. They say that they enslave illegal immigrant midgets to work in the spice mines below the town...which would explain the smoke coming out of the open barrels!

Amusing Little Program by Rebecca
To get this little text adventure to work, drag the leekspin.z5 file over the frotz.exe file. To work it, just type in commands and it should recognize what you are typing. If not, it will say so.

LeekSpin BATTLE DEMO
It's here folks! This is a W.I.P version, which will be updated again very soon. Check out the second page of the thread for instructions on how to activate specials!


Oh, and lookie here!
LeekSpin now has a blog!
 
Wow I wonder where the name came from? I bet it is very orginial <sarcasm>

Anyways this seems like this project can turn out pretty well, but the area in the screenshot looks to maze like.(I'm positive it was made that way on purpose.)

The game itself is infact based off of the animation from http://www.leekspin.com. The animation plays an integral role in the story as well.


Also, it shouldn't come off as maze-like. It should come across as the center of town that leads to everything. Also, none of the RTP charactersets will be making it into this game. As of this posting, they are merely placeholders.
 
Your characters are based on members of this forum. THAT makes it cool. This is one of few decent early project threads on this forum, good luck on the development.
 
Thanks Ratty, it means a lot (Even from you of all people :p) that someone actually likes the premise. I'm working hard on this project as we speak, and I'll have a demo up soon. So look out for it!
 
A W.I.P version of the Tech Demo is out. It shows how the battles will work, among other things. The graphics are only placeholders, as is the music. Also, tomorrow's version will include a few glitch fixes and Special Moves.

Ooh, I'll download the tech demo for battles when I get home. :> So far it really does sound like a fun game.
 
I tried the demo, it will be long battle with that type of battles. If you make a mistake the enemy attacks you but you can attack after that although you can make it every time by tapping the cursor that you need to press since it doesn't make you miss.

And if a member dies and you start hitting the enemy he will eventually wake up with 0hp and he will attack again.
 
you should add despain if your making a game based on members

some say that he is still around...watching....listening....

posting...??

Well, I'm trying for something different in a battle system. Also, the kinks are still being worked out.

And Despain is, of course, going to be in it. Do you take me as DAFT?!
 
The latest Battle Demo is up. A few glitches were fixed, a showcase of varying speeds, and a "Special" bar were added. To activate a Special, wait for that little bar below your Party's HP to fill up all the way, then press "Enter". The character who is up will use their skill, and it'll be the next character's turn.

Played the demo, died three times and then managed to win. Still, thought it was very fun, just like DDR for my fingers. 8D

Story wise it seems very cute and fun, and I just hope you don't do the 'add dumb stuff trying to be funny' thing that ruins so many games.
 
I'm trying to help you pyramid head since i like this project.

Good luck on completing it :thumb:

You should make this battle system for certain types of enemies not all like bosses or funny rivals ecc.

you guys better be enjoying the complementary IF i spent like three hours on that shit

"UNLIMITED EXCITE Leekspin Go Go!!" by "Rebecca Vay"

The story genre is "Erotica".
The release number is 1.
The story creation year is 2007.

Use American dialect, the serial comma, no scoring, and undo prevention.

Understand "about", "info", and "help" as asking for information. Asking for information is an action out of world.

Carry out asking for information: say "You should turn on the stereo and spin the leek. In that order. Any other order will work but that's just kindof gay."

Procedural rule when acting fast: ignore the turn sequence rules.
Examining something is acting fast.
Looking is acting fast.

A thing can be examined or unexamined.

After taking something unexamined:
say "You take it. [run paragraph on]";
try examining the noun.

Carry out examining something:
now the noun is examined.

When play begins, say "OH GOD SHE'S ABOUT TO SPIN A FUCKING LEEK."

The SPIRALY FUCKING FREAKOUT is a room. "oh god what happened how did i get h".
A stereo is a thing with the description "It's a stereo." A stereo is in SPIRALY FUCKING FREAKOUT. A stereo is not portable.

Instead of taking the stereo:
say "That's a silly thing to do, and you're not going to do it."

Instead of switching on the stereo:
say "You hit the play button and marvel in silence as the hellish contraption starts playing music - particularly, Loituma's 'Ievan Polkka'."

A leek is a thing. The player is holding a leek.

Understand "spin [something]" as spinning. Spinning is an action with past participle spun, applying to one thing.

Instead of spinning the leek, end the game saying "SHE SPUN THE FUCKING LEEK."

When play ends, say "You just spun the fucking leek."

edit: by three hours i meant more like fifteen minutes but the point stands
