Wow. Just wow. I haven't been on here, since I was TEN! Glad to see that Necromancer is still in the Top Five lol, great work Endmaster! I know that everyone probably forgot about me or didn't even know who I was in the first place. That's fine. I get it. I wasn't as big a deal as the others: Aman, KillaRobot, BerkaZerka, 3J, Endmaster, just to name a few. But yeah. After... what has it been? Seven years? Almost eight? Damn. Anyway, after being gone for so long, I figured I'd make a return. No real reason. Except... well...
I have an idea for a game. That's the basic reason why we're all here anyway, right? But I want this game to be a Top-Down 2D Pixel Horror RPG Puzzle Adventure PC Game. Ambitious, I know, especially with a limited budget and my limited knowledge of coding but that's beside the point. I didn't want to just jump into making the game without any idea of how it would be received. Will people like it? Will it be profitable? Or will people hate it? Will it end up being a waste of time, effort, and money?
That's where you people come in.
I know that on CYS I can't make the whole game in all its glory, but I can still push out a decent "sneak peek" along with the story etc. etc. NO THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE A DEMO! I learned that lesson the hard way. It WILL be a full-lengthed, fullly fledged game, but it will be the CYS version of the actual game I'm planning to make.
What does that mean? It basically means that, yes, this is a full game and is about 99% canon to the actual story, but it isn't the "full" game. Augh, I've never been very good at explaining! What I'm TRYING to say is this game is like a prequal, but... not. Essentially, this game on CYS will be the CYS equivalent to the first game in the ACTUAL SERIES. There! I did it!
This is a series? Yes. Yes it is. There are three games composing the "Origin" tales of the series, and ten games composing the "Chronicles". 13 games in all. Period. HOWEVER! Like I said before, I have no idea if it will even be remotely successful. That's why I came here. I'll take my plans for the very first game and turn it into a CYS version for you all to play, rate, and comment on. That way, I'll be able to reveal enough of the game for people to actually say if they like or dislike it, but it won't cost me as much money as it would to make the Gamemaker version. Understand? Good.
Now that that's out of the way, you're probably saying, "Kayo! When are you going to tell us what this freaking game is about?!" Right now.
"The Killzone: Book of Sanctum"
(A CYS Version of "The Killzone")
By: Kayotime
Shawn Campbell is your ordinary high school sophomore. He has a ten-year-old sister named Molly, two best friends name Aaron Malkovich and Stephen Harris, and a crush on the cutest girl in school, Lyra Fawkes, not to mention the intense rivalry between him and Lyra's twin brother, Liam. All seems perfect (well nearly perfect, if only Liam would get off his back!) until Shawn begins having strange visions... visions of things he should never have seen.
Before any of them know what's going on, they're trapped in a mind-bending alternate reality where everything is twisted and they may not come out of it alive. Can Shawn solve the puzzle of the Killzone? Or will he and his friends be lost in their own minds... forever? Find out in this exclusive CYS sneak peek version of the 2D PC game scheduled to begin development summer 2018!
