User blog:Neoexlucky/Tales of the Echo RPG proof of concept

So for a while now I've been playing with the idea of creating a video game for Tales of the Echo. It's not going to be anything as big as Smash's Splice the Hedgehog game, but I do plan for it to take place over the course of the first season, with each chapter taking around thirty minutes to play through. So I suppose in total it'd be about six hours long, maybe? The only issue we have right now is that there are not a lot of furry parts for the generator in game, and since I'm not an artist, I can't really make them. The fix I am using currently is that all mobians are Neko's so they all have ears of some kind.

Basically, it's a re-telling of Tales of the Echo Season 1, but what's different about this and the roleplay version of the season is that there are more options to tell more of the story that I couldn't with the roleplay. As an example, we can go through the timeline of the season, the growing relationships between characters, even talk about some side stories, such as The Necromancer (which is currently a fanfiction) and possibly others as well.

There's also the possibility of adding more characters. As an example, one character who is pretty prominent in the series is Saren, but Saren didn't make his first appearence until the second roleplay of the series, but we could easily change it a little bit and include him in the first chapter of the game. We could also include characters who exist in the universe but are not members of the roleplay team. The first one to come to mind being a character known as Christina Transon. (Of course, I would only implement her with Pianoteen's permission.) Which could change the way some stories go. (Example: Christina who is not even an ally of The Mythic Knights in roleplays could become a member of the team in the RPG.) We can even finish roleplays that never made it all the way through the game.

Imagine some DLC though, like being able to play as Moros and Era on a few of their missions or being able to battle in the Aries Tournament with Neo and Time Spinner. Because of the vast amount of characters and detail I have in the world, there are options for so much DLC. Even the possibility of crossovers with characters not in the series. We'll take my friend Mantis an example, where Blitz and his team might have to work with Neo and his team to take down a big bad. Granted it wouldn't be cannon to the roleplay series, but seeing the characters interact would be really interesting.

So, here is where you can view the proof of concept video. Please note that I've been making this little 'demo' while I've been under the weather so there are a few spelling errors. There is also a few problems with abilities, but I do manage to show off all the abilities of each character. Anyway it's right over here.

Also remember that this is a proof of concept, and is super rough around the edges. Once I start work on the actual project, there will be a lot of fixes to the game, involving text and full facesets (Not the abominations I made for this POC)
