Homebrew survey: Tech/hacking based (CTU-OS) In responce to the beginning of a new homebrew game, I would like you to answer the following questions. Your opinion matters, and will drastically change the outcome of the development.
about:
The game is a puzzle-style game combined with hacking elements. Users play as agents of the fictional Department CTU, of 24. You must use the CTU-OS software to play single player by using a variety of applications such as decryption software, facial recognistion software, network attack, brute force and others. Many of these will be under time constraint.
Since the game play will be non linear open ended, meaning that what you do determines the missions that follow, all games will record your score and upload them to your ONLINE PROFILE
Your online profile will allow login for people to want to record their scores, and a high score table will be available on the site for the best agents.
The fun really kicks in with multiplayer mode. With after-market 'plugins', that even a non-coder could make, modified versions of the software can be created, which will allow a ctu agent to compete against, say, a russian terrorist, and this invokes several mini games:
SPREAD THE VIRUS: The operator must engineer and distribute thier virus to as many peoples games as possible. This will also be recorded on the website, and possibly a map of infected consoles by your account will be displayed.
You can also attempt a 'cat and mouse' style minigame, where one player must hack the others console whilst the other defends, and then the alternate. This is for fun, and will not be kept on the server.
Questions:
1. Would you download and play this game?
2. Will it affect your judgement that it is a lua game?
3. Which features do you think are least important
4. Whic features do you think are most important
5. If you would add/alter anything, what would it be?
Please reply!!!
