Essence of Evil

The story game is a modern adventure one with a villain as the main character. I can't decide what the plot will unfold into. :3

There will be two distinct paths. But for now, I'll just work on ONE path because I am lazy. :P

And I almost forgot the main reason I posted this thread.

Coauthors wanted

Because frankly, I can't do scripting without blowing it up.

Good luck, but I am too jacked up with stuff right now. And by the way I think you should post the idea and main characters. 

Again, good luck!

The more specific you are with what your story is about and what you need your coauthor to do, the more likely you will be able to find someone who's interested in helping out and well-suited to the role.

For instance, beyond just having a villain protagonist, what's the premise of your plot? Are they after revenge? On the run from the law? Is there some grand heist that they're planning? If you haven't figured it out yet, then I strongly advice you to come up with a clearer plot outline before recruiting someone.

How complicated does the scripting need to be? Is it really just tracking a few variables like money and key decisions, or will the game actually need something like a battle system and specialized items?

Ideally, you could also post a small sample of your writing, because a lot of people would prefer to co-author with someone who has a similar style.

The reason the villain is a villain is because he was psychotic. He never seemed help from anyone because he thought it was normal and it could be controlled. One day, the villain couldn't keep it in and murdered his parents. So yeah, the villain is on a run from the law.

The scripting is a little complex because it involves battles.
