That's yet to be decided. It can if you want.IMO it would be cool to add omni-members, if not namley, maybe some npcs can have their character (like saying random crap)/me startes at juju

so are we collecting 7 crystals?

This is not Zelda, there will be no crystals (I believe)Who says that the only game that can have crystals is Zelda? Minecraft has diamonds.

Omni is a programming website. The basic moves should be:
Program: +1 to 5 ponies, depending on what you do
Post: -5 ponies
Omnom: -7 ponies
Lobster: -15 ponies
RPG can't be made without giant mechanic fortress.I'm afraid I don't understand?
I meant to say we need a giant mechanical fortress section in story. :P
What would the levels be?
Hmm. We could do a more FF/LoZ type gameplay where there is an overworld with locations and no real "level"I like this idea.
(Going off the idea I had earlier about collecting the UberGraphX parts)
Dungeon 1: RAM (Tutorial, movement controls, sets up story, awaken ancient evil)
Dungeon 2: TI HQ (Fight to stop TI and help unify the continent)
Dungeon 3: Programming Editor (Fight against Assembly, BASIC, Grammer, Axe, etc users to stop wars)
Dungeon 4: Cemetech (Fight the nikky simulator as a test of strength)
Dungeon 5: Casio (Fight against hostile anti-TI enemies to unify both continents)
Dungeon 6: Archives (Search for the scatters parts of the UberGraphX)
Dungeon 7: Exotic lands of the Computers (Reclaim the final portion of the UberGraphX (The OS))
Dungeon 8: Omnimaga (Fight the final boss)
Dungeon 9: World Editor (Fight enemy armies during world creation process)
Dungeon 10: Perfect world (Stop the boss from taking over)

Hey guys, this is probably temporary, but I made an OmnomIRC channel called @omnirpg for discussion... (in options allow extra channels)
Ok, so I have a (rather barebones) storyline concept.
In essence, since this is a primarily Omnimaga-based community project, why not make the story based around Omni itself? :D
You start as a general, run-of-the-mill calc enthusiast. You have just bought the latest calc, but little do you know this calc is different from others. You see, you have unknowingly bought the first calculator, known in myth as the "DJ_Omnimaga's Holy Calculator." Upon turning it on, you have been transported inside the calculator to a place known as "Omnimaga" which resides inside the "TI" continent. Omnimaga is a peace-loving realm, however, not everything is as it seems. There is trouble stirring. While Omnimaga is at peace with its neighbors like the country of Cemetech, there are ancient tensions building between the different philosophies. Some people follow "the Way of the Assembly" others, "the Way of the Axe" and hostilities are building up. There is also discontent with recent events. And people are leaving to settle the continent of Casio. And behind everything, an ancient evil has its sights of dominating the calculator world, and through you, the Outer world as well.
As the player, you will have to settle these smaller disputes and unify the community against this evil. I your quest, you will meet individuals such as DJ_Omnimaga, who founded the country or Quigibo, who began the Way of the Axe. (Aka, we will have cameos in this story) :P
That's the basic idea I have right now.

Wow, these are actually some cool ideas. I think serious-minded overarching scene might be better. We should also include TICalc as maybe a powerful organisation that keeps a record of most calculator knowledge (think of Druids) and we can use some info from TI-Story to create a neat history. I am thinking that a lot of this project is going to be in archive, so will definitely need some asm utilities or code (again, I'm happy with writing that). I can also create some compression/decompression programs to make text not take up so much memory (and probably images).
Can I be the guardian of the one of the bridge? Some ppl knows the "rumor" that was spreaded about me about an year ago.... O.O
Can I be the guardian of the one of the bridge? Some ppl knows the "rumor" that was spreaded about me about an year ago.... O.ORumor? It's not a rumor if it's the truth... XD
It's a minor one but somewhen ppl started to call me "a bridged one" and it stuck to me for a while O.Oits "THE BRIDGED ONE", not "a bridged one." :P
I'd love to have a yeong-ish character guarding a bridge, though. That'd make a minor, if fun, reference.
Lol, Yeong should be an omni member that was infected and turned evil. He then remains on The Bridge between TI and Casio and is the boss that the player must defeat there/me thinks of Gilgamesh and Battle on the Big Bridge :D
That wiki just looks like a single page :P
We could always just make a wiki that looks more legit (http://epic7.cz.cc/omnirpg)
creating new page: just search for a non-existing page and there'll be a create page link.
...
I don't see how concept art can be done yet as we don't even have a story nailed down, or a team developing the story/scenario yet.
...
i'm not good at details, so i'd need an assistant or just don't add me at all :P
ok :Pi'm not good at details, so i'd need an assistant or just don't add me at all :P
It would be a team effort still, but the writers themselves will be in charge of making the story itself. This is so progress is made on the story and getting definitive results :P
We should put together some background info on the holy calculator (what it is, why its on earth, how it's related to the evil)
since I don't know how, will someone move http://epic7.cz.cc/omnirpg/index.php/Story_Script to be under storyline?only admins can move pages iirc and epic7 doesn't know how to :P
@augs I thought we were going to do something semi-omnimaga related tho
If the player could use boats, wouldn't he just be able to go directly from HP to Omnimaga? :Pno boats. no plains. :P
Hey, is there an official IRC channel for Omni-RPG?
We don't *have* to, but that seems to be what people want to do. Don't be afraid to make suggestions, afaik nothing has been nailed down yet.@augs I thought we were going to do something semi-omnimaga related tho
Oh OK then. Better make this into it's own game or something.
Yeah but good for fighting mobs! Or is the combat turn based?
right, it's arpg, well, we don't do map design, so... :PThat hasn't yet been determined either. The <a href=http://ourl.ca/17702/328631;topicseen#new> battle engine discussion topic</a> still has a lot of debate going on as to which direction we are going to take.
we should continue with the story thought. Did we add anything i didn't catch? all i catched is from that big update on the wiki.
I'll be either an extra with a speaking part or a villain ( :D or >:D )
I like the idea of having random characters, neither good or evil. It shows that the world is broader than the two sides. There's always some guy in the corner who doesn't care either way./me plans on having his character as a hireable mercenary :D And if he isn't hired by the player, he is hired by the enemy forces :P
I'm new of course, but can I?
Holy Calculator~
Many claim the Holy Calculator is a myth. However, its existence is far from unconfirmed. Why, you only need to ask Omnimaga himself and he'll explain to you the story in its entirety. We have known, that heroes of the far past have wielded powerful artifacts. And The Holy Calculator is only one of several names it has been given. Some call it, the First Calculator. Others, The Infinity Relic. Even the Computer Lands know of it and within their vast empire it is known as the Lost Quantum Bit Machine. Indeed, the evidence is too clear to disprove its existence. And it's effects and contributions to the world by those who have wielded it are still felt to this day.
Whoops nope I completely forgot ^^"Actually, that sounds quite good! :D
I have an idea for it though. Gimme a sec and this time I'll force myself to write it down :P
Edit: Ok, so I have some of it written up, I'll finish the rest tomorrow.

I'm writing it in this style for immersion, then a more complete bulletin point format afterwards.

Sorunome: I'm fine. I've never seen you before, you must be new. Here, have some peanuts.

Sorunome: Not to these kind.

Sorunome: You just Lost the Game!

Oh man, I just read the stroryline, it's amazing :) really, this is great! Someone with great artistic skills should make a 3D rendered (short)movie about it, that'd be awesome :)
Edit: also, if this really is gonna work out, shouldn't a subforum in 'major com projects' be handy? I know i'm not in charge to say so, but I guess it can be useful...
