Battlemon Metaverse Game Done – Starfighter General

I finished a metaverse game I worked on for 23 years and put 5000 hours into. You go into actual real life parks ! And in each park I made a quest, or friends I find and trust make quests, you have like finalfantasy/pokemon style quests in real life.

Say go to a pavillion, it will say defeat 20 enemies to unlock a boss… Or go to sconces in the park and collect a piece of a puzzle and with all the pieces you unlock a boss fight or virtual treasure like a pack of cards or physical geocache treasure. Or walk along a certain path and if you go off, start again… Or survival trail that you need to take your whole deck of battlemon and keep them alive over many battles… Or trivia quizzes where you enter data… There are many many more nodes. I’m looking for people to meet in person, friend up and hang out, make sure you’re cool, and alpha/beta test some parks, maybe make quests together!

We can imagine any sort of new quest node, there are no limitations. We can add more battlemon. You can draw em, assign stats and they automated card maker will assign mana. It will start super local to Pittsburgh cuz its hard to make a trust network and I don’t want to force it. I’m getting old and finishing my sunset years going to parks and beautifying them with metaverse quests will be fun!

I’m a little bit of a mad scientist style coder with like 1 MMO coming up, a table top online roleplaying game coming out in next 4 months too! Gotta solo it all… But maybe its time to pick up some old fart friends 30s-40s preferably if you want to hang out with this park thing the world literally never saw before, uber huge announcement. Do I call it an Outdoors Escape Room? Its a custom quest for every park! Maybe more than one quest per park.

Anyway I designed battlemon so a Make a Wish Child could tell his friends that he made a video game… And I got the idea from my aunt, who now has unstoppable lymph node cancer so I want them both to realize their dreams before it’s too late… We all have limited time on Earth. Wanna chill with CrazyJim in parks and do something the world never saw, like comment, message or whatever.

God bless all of younz, Love’s the way! And you know it, CrazyJim

It won’t roll out for a while around the world, but if you’re around the Pittsburgh area and you’re an older responsible guy or gal , get ahold of me and we can do park stuff, leave a comment or something.

2) Networking that pushes the envelope where no networking has gone before. People laugh at this like it is impossible to innovate, but I marketed it to Midway in 2003, and they laughed too. Meanwhile it was working in house as a Tekken style(3d fighter) MMO with part of what today is known as rollback code. Midway’s manager was mocking what is today’s standard thinking rollback and such was impossible. Infinite action players same zone, limit only by video card and other hardware, networking ain’t a limiting thing anymore.

4) First MMO designed for late game. Everyone enjoys mmos until power capped and then get bored.
There is no power cap to begin with(just a log log logarithmic progression), but there are many many many other end game design elements to make it so want to keep playing end game! The grind is there, but better and more fun things are around too! You can build up a super big fleet and it get destroyed to pieces and you start over again. You have a power floor level that you can’t go below so you’re always building permanent power, but temporary spikes of power surges and galactic dominance for fleeting moments give a rush. The larger the fleet, the larger the fleeting moment.

8) PVP bounty system. Everyone can PVP at all times. Stakes are low if your ship explodes. If you get attacked without declaring aggressive mode or an opponent to duel, the aggressor gets a bounty on their head in accordance with the damage dealt to you. If this bounty gets high enough, and they get caught, they will be put in jail. When they log on for the next few hours or days, their character can play only in jail, and visitors come see him and such. Enjoy roleplaying being a prison inmate, or just use a different crew member on your account. Developing many crew members is a thing for when you fly capital ships.

10) Omnipotent roleplay: Earn your right into a a movie anime by great roleplay! Live game masters in about 6-12 months after the content updates roll through. We bias people with Founder’s RP tokens some and good manner role players who stay in character(we have chat logs and even game logs). This promotes good role play even when not live GMing. Who doesn’t want to bring their friends to a movie and surprise em with their own character in it? So stay in character for a better game! https://www.starfightergeneral.com/live-role-play/

Punky-Pulpy action, Levels, stats, skills, talents, items, fleet amassing, and great apocalyptic space plots, trippy Lewis Carrol level Mad Hatter humor along the way. It’s really weird to see how this synergizes from a game design standpoint. Players naturally want to level up and power up… That’s the twink min maxer in all of us. So when humor, plots, intrigue, or NPCs getting your blood boiling to action vs them happens, you get stoked, rewarded, happy and tossed off your axis. Then when resolved, you look back and get serious about powering up. The core of a RPG gamer is always powering up, it is something we can’t get rid of, but the core of a game designer is to get you out of a spreadsheet mindset temporarily… And then you appreciate both more. So tacky humor, along serious pulp action and serious leveling up game mechanics… It is like a symphony of fun.
