SX3: Project Revival

Here's some random brainstorming and info I copied from the "SEGA FINALLY GETS IT RIGHT" thread:

As an FYI, I personally could be very helpful as a Script Writer, Plot Developer, and possibly voice acting (need to play around a bit and see if i can portray some of the characters well).

Also, I have managed to get a huge collection of Sonic's voice from SA2B. We may not even need a voice actor if we can use the original, although it may seem corny, it keeps the character more original-sounding.

Some ideas for the game:

Firstly, Galaxina, you mentioned you'd want some 1st person shooter type of game? Hmm...well, I'm certain we could implement elements of both 1st Person shooter as well as the old Sonic games. Somehow I think Tails would fit this role partially well, as he's always got the gadgets. Here's some ideas for individual characters:

Sonic: Self-explanitory He's gotta be in the need-for-speed levels. Just seems to fit him the best.

Tails: As i mentioned to Galaxina, he may be involved in some sort of First Person shooter levels. Maybe put him on some sorts of retrieval/sabatoge missions. I think that'd be best ,as it puts his IQ to the test.

Knuckles: Hmm...well we don't have the master emerald scattered everywhere like in SA2B, so tbh I'm open to suggestions. We definitely want him playable, though.

Cream and Cheese: Tbh, I don't see much need to make them playable. In my opinion, I'd like them mainly there for the storyline, especially some mirrors of the Sonic X series.

Cosmo: She's obviously an essential part of the storyline, however, I think her playability may be somewhat limited. In the storyline, it isn't very often where she comes into action, as she herself is a pacifist. So, personally I'm up for ideas.

Chris: Idk about Chris...maybe we could have him piloting the X-Tornado, or some other machinery in the game. Not sure.

Molly: Maybe for 1 scene she'd be playable, at most. She is introduced and killed all in 1 episode so...idk

Galaxina and siblings: Unless we're going to make a second game based on some sort of well-done fan-fic, I don't think there should be much if any playability on Galaxina or her siblings. Especially considering they were technically dead throughout the anime. However, maybe they could be playable in some of Cosmo's flashbacks. Just an idea, I'm open

Shadow: Shadow is definitely going to be an essential playable character. I think his levels should consist of a mix of the speed element, and the robot-battering element. He could cover a variety of roles tbh...so I'm also open for input here.

Amy: As far as playability goes, probably some. She's an essential part of the storyline, and she does have some times where she really steps into action (especially when saving Soniku!) so maybe she oughta put that hammer to use in the game

Team Chaotix: I don't really see much of a point in making them playable, however they're part of the storyline, so they need to be in cutscenes for sure.

That's as much as I can think of for the moment. All of this is of course subject to change and other ideas, just wanted to throw my opinions out there for you guys to see.

I really hope we do revive this, I'll be willing to put in a fair amount of effort into this. As I continue my fan-fic, I may be making a storyline which would be easily adaptable into a game. So we'll have to see

Sanayora for now,

EDIT: Come to think of it, if we could get a working team together, maybe I could even convince TheBlox to help us out. He's using some sort of engine to make those graphics of his, although I'm not sure what. Either way, they come out extremely good, so maybe he would help us out in the graphics department. Just a thought

Wow, what a reaction time. You see this, guys? This is called initiative. Initiative is good.

Sign in here if interested. I recommend placing this link at the start of every affiliated thread from now on. We need a way to keep up with people who jump in farther down the line.

RAWR. I moved it to the Fan Art section after posting the link. Poor planning on my part. (I'll fix it.)

I can teach you some basics of Maya; I've already got a fully functional copy of '09. It's expensive to get the full version (upwards of $5,000 because of licensing), but I managed to find a student edition for around two hundred.

Would you mind changing the blue on your forum to another color? I can't see the section names. (Lol, ninja text.)

Well, I'll be honest. I have a LITTLE talent in making video games, but I think the most powerful thing I could bring to the table would be a plot.

I won't officially sign up until I am sure I can place some devotion there... but... if you want a plot, I know that I am more than willing to help. (Besides, when Twilit, Zoran and I really put our heads together, some interesting stuff tends to occur. [Just imagine a more proper Shrine Fic?])

Mostly digital. :]

Very well then. I can do a bit of voice acting too, but we'll have to wait until Summer before I can pull out my equipment and practice my tunes, lol.

What kind of story are we talking about here?

~Joe

"Based on Season 3" is pretty much the only nailed-down fact about this project. We can work out the structure soon, but our first prioity needs to be organizing ourselves.

Shall I put XT down as an idea contributor for now?

I know only a little about animation and scripting, but know much more about composing music. If you need anything, a percussive effect, something sad or scary, I'm always here.

Oh, and it's sayonara. You've spelt it wrong a few times, and thought I'd make sure you wouldn't get it wrong again.
