[LT]Telephone Recruiting: Project Chaos [3/31?]

do it. do it. do it.

Add a chao and make it a trainee where it can promote to Hero, Villain, or Neutral Chao.

i might do it tbh
edit: the telephone project, not the chaos. just to make that clear. also do = participate in it

That is if we can make units.

Looks fun. Iā€™m definitely doing this.

ooh I wanted to do something like this but didnā€™t end up doing so so itā€™s very cool that youā€™re doing it!

this will be the most beautiful thing this site has ever seen

props to all of the devs that will be behind this eternal monument to chaos

I signed up and am very invested in this idea! If I do make the cut my preference is an early chapter but I can fill any spot if necessary.

Can I also suggest a hidden/locked discord channel for all those who have already finished chapters so that they can discuss the game as it develops? Obviously you add people once they finish their chapter and then you can still have the very fun meta discussion and community that builds up around telephone projects.

Thanks to everyone who signed up. Honestly I didnā€™t expect this many people, but Iā€™m glad weā€™re currently set to have a full FE campaign with 22 planned chapters. Iā€™ll contact someone within the next few days to start on Chapter 4. As a reminder, sign ups will be open until five chapters remain.

A few housekeeping things, as Iā€™ve seen some confusion on what the expectations are.

I will not forgot. Youā€™re listed alongside Shadow in my state of the art spreadsheet.

You can make units. You can unmake units. You can do anything. This is Project Chaos lol. I only ask that whatever you do, its somehow linked to what happened in the prior chapter.

What the ā€œgood faithā€ rule is meant to prevent.

  • A bunch of new characters play Blackjack for the whole chapter.

How to make this concept ā€œgood faithā€

  • The characters from the prior chapter find themselves needing money, so they play Blackjack for the whole chapter.

I promise this is the easiest, bare minimum bar to clear. You will not break this rule by accident.

Itā€™s been an idea Iā€™ve had in my mind, but Iā€™m hesitant. I donā€™t really have the time to moderate a discord channel, and Iā€™d rather not cause any ā€œChaosā€ outside the game itself. Maybe Iā€™ll be more open to it when more chapters are completed? Iā€™ll think on it, I suppose.

Iā€™m just a little guyā€¦ I hope I donā€™t explode the gameā€¦

So Iā€™ve seen this general feeling of trepidation from a lot of newer devs, which is perfectly understandable. I was super nervous when I snuck into Embers Entwined with no public projects under my belt. But be not afraid. The current dev team is about 70% newer devs, and Iā€™m more than prepared to help anyone with the technical details.

More importantly, this is Project Chaos. This project lives and dies on audacity. Make whatever your heart desires.

glances at Ramm

personally I wouldā€™ve just shoved the blackjack game to the side amidst more dramatic events. Like a big castle siege these two newbies are playing blackjack in the middle of because They Fucking Wanted To. Or a big bandit raid interrupting their pre-existing game of blackjack that they just decided to keep up while they joined the PCs, who have their own reasons for being here, to fight the bandit raid.

Yeah, just inbetween every phase a round of blackjack occurs, and depending on the winner de/buffs are granted to either team.

I mean I was thinking both players of the blackjack game were on the same team and just Jabbing about it and Being Dorks, but fuck it, sure, that sounds mechanically interesting.

Got so many ideas that I could implement but I want to ask do we have the skill system or no?

LT has a easily configurable skillsys built in. LT just doesnā€™t have many limits unlike GBA. Welllā€¦ apart from not being able to use midi.

Oooh i got some tricks up my sleeve and its going to blossom if we get either a late or early chapter hehe.

Ill see if i can put your ideas inā€¦ worst case scenario i have to ask @SirSpensir for help.
Infact, we can do more than the skillsystem in gba. Ideaguy hard for me shadow

I already got bosses in mind wii. I already got em turning and they aint stopping ima need to write you it so i dont forget.

I would definitely like to request a somewhat mid game chapter, around where the characters are just starting to promote.

I sent you my idea tell me how it is.
