I think there's only one at my school that really knows what he's talking about.

We shall make a game combining the greatest elements of the greatest video games out there. Castlevania, Metroid, Megaman, Zelda, RPG elements... It shall be called Megatroidvania Zero Forever. It will be glorious.

I did like the idea of making a Metroidvania. Something with cool explosions and emotionally moving scenes.

Also: I wonder if making a new game would split the fanbase (if we have one to speak of). I'd hope not. Best case scenario, the game is an embodiment of perfection (look at me, showing off my somewhat firm grasp of my first language) and everyone loves it in addition to Egoboo. More realistic scenario, some like it and some don't, but we end up splitting, for the most part. Or perhaps the new project is abandoned for Egoboo or vice versa.

I don't think that there'll be a huge amount more done on Egoboo, as much as there's amazing potential for it in those who are willing. I'm just thinking we'll migrate to the new place for the new game so we're not just using this forum for off-topic talk.

Also, I have a friend (that is also female [not girlfriend]) who is pretty swell with doing some cartoonish voices and such, if anything calls for that.
And if we do anything, I say 32-bit Platroidvania.

I am also a big fan of Medtroidvania, but I think we need to start with something smaller. Game-making lore dictates that your first project should always be small scale.

Yeah, I know. Obviously experiments etc would precede it, but that would be something of a goal (assuming any of this gets off of the ground).

Any ideas I could think of would be too big, so I can't even really say anything. :P

I always had something metroidvania-ish with some RPG elements in mind as well. And explosions. And flashy, balanced magic/weapons/techs. And innovations.

I was going to say explosions should be the main feature but Remar already did that, so... lightning?
Lightning bolts are my favorite volatile phenomenon, even more than explosions.
