you are a ninja during the uneventful peaceful period of japan, the tokugawa period it is nearing the end of both the period and the ninjas, the rest of the world has gunpowder, ball and shot. The government is near collapse, and ninjas must prepare what may become a civil war between traditionalists and those who wish to trade with the americans. Your goal is to become the greatest ninja ever, and overthrow the evil daimyos who wish to break from tradition.

Anyway, you claim the story is so spectacular, and I admit, that goes a long way in making a good game.  But what is the story?
You start out as a ninja in traing in the ninja acadmey. You must fight your fellow students or go and train in the forest. After traing when you think you are ready you may take the EXAM. You will challenge your master to a one on one dual. If you defeat him you will become the next lvl ninja. If not you must continu your training. The main quest happens AFTER you become a Ninja Master (The Last Rank until the specail ranks). The DarkNinja (A group of curropt ninja) will ask you to join them. If you agree you gain dark ninja rank and will be given new skills on the skill tree also new missions will be available and you will be able to become one of the Head DakrNinja...(DarkGama) The final Dark rank. If you decline then they will attack you and you will be given a NEW mission set and skill tree...The light ninja.(Kinda a Good Guy bad Guy chocie.) If you decline you join the Other ninja...Basicly anyone who is NOT a darkninja...Is against them...

That's not much of a story...You're a guy who has to train until he's either a dark ninja or a light ninja?  Because that is SO DIFFERENT from every other RPG... (sarcasm)

Come on, you need to have something to draw people into your game.  What makes it different (or better) from any other RPG?

Okay...this IS a rpg...And if all you have is NON constructive critisizm...then whatever...And what games have you made! The whole point of the game is to be the Strongest and best ninja yopu can be.....OKAY! the story is for charter developement purpose ONLY!

I have nothing against the game; you just said you had a killer story, and I was expecting a bit more.

And, since you asked:
http://reptoran.rogueforge.net/

^That's a series of games that I'm working on.

http://roguebasin.roguelikedevelopment.org/index.php?title=Magic_Monsters

^That's a game I've completed.

Keep in mind, these are roguelikes, which favor gameplay over graphics.  If you've never played a roguelike before, Magic Monsters is not a good starting point.  Lots of things that my seem intuitive or obvious to an experienced roguelike gamer probably make little to no sense to newbies.  Read the readme file! Too many people jump right into the game and die right away.  This game is more about tactics and careful gameplay than running in and killing stuff.

If card games are your thing, check out:
http://geocities.com/galacticwarfaretcg/

The site itself isn't updated very often (and could probably stand a makeover), but to date over 400 cards have been designed.

Right now I'm working with several other developers to create an online RPG, and a stealth-based game is also in development.  In two weeks I'll also be participating in another Seven Day Roguelike (7DRL) competition, where the object is to make a playable game in a single week.

So I hope that clears up a few things about my programming credentials. ;)

I think you should work on a much more killer story. That's what most RPG's are best at, making good stories.

A 4 year old had a good one...

Oo id like to play that reminds me of Naruto (I'm on episode 214 now...). If you want the soundtrack of the series just PM me.
All though it wouldn't be mush different form any other by just that. You could go threw some hardcore programing and stuff to make em jump Btw trees and stuff trowing Kunai´s (Ninja tossing knife) and Shuriken (tossing star). That would be nice but i don't know if its hard or not but i guess its not possible in any near future.

how would that not be fun??? HISTORY IS FRIGGIN AWESOME. Besides, aren't guns like, the basic fundamentals of videogames? Guns would add a twist to the fighting style, maybe jump out from behind and pull off some sweet ninja sneeking to go up and kill them and such.

Mr, Snow:
Oo thats really hard cuz MMORPG means, Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game. I cant help you whit the coding & Graphics. But i can say that if it have a good story, not super crappy graphics and a good community you will come a long way.


Id like to hear your story....Even tho i have one...maybe a huge side quest... Also what the heck do you mean..But i can say that if it have a good story, not super crappy graphics and a good community you will come a long way. i don't understand that...???
Well i mean that you need to have quality on the game to get it big.. There are still people out there who is looking for a game that is free.

Anyway use the spelling check before you post. (I use Google spell check)
It must be annoying to start a tread to get help and still not get any.

Why would it be so hard to make shurikens and shit in 2D? I mean, if it's from the side, then it's x axis movement with gravity factored in, if you're going for that realtime RPG stuff, or if it's top down, just x and y axis, and factor in an imaginary z axis, where it would hit the ground after a certain distance. I'm starting to wonder how much you really know about programming games, much less RPGs, even less MMO anythings.

oh my gosh why do weapons always have to be pointy-very bloody, or shoot something? why dont we make things like coka cola cans as grenades or baseball bats of glory or summit like that? i know games that have had weapons which wernt violent and had GOOD ratings to, surikens and stuff is just used to many times in my opinion :S

Soldat is a 2d game........
guns would work in any fighting system. The enemies would have muskets and carbines and other period guns.

From what you have to say your game is going to be crap. You have no creativity and it sounds like it is going to be the same thing as a bunch of other games.

@ NinjaNali (UT reference?) I was just going off of the ideas M.rSnow.

Also, I agree with 4yo, this is just another project doomed to fail. Pro-tip: Don't announce a game until it's near completion.

To be harshly honest, I highly doubt a kid with the literacy of a third grader (maybe not even) can organize and maintain an MMORPG. Start with something simple; try something in Gamemaker. Get your head out of the clouds and you'll see how mediocre your proposal is.
