Also, I don't think the name should be the first of your priorities xD But of course a good name is important.

There is a biblical story with David and Golias, you could base on that, it would be a nice RPG.

Want the story's run down?

Spoiler For David and Goliath (Goliath is the way it's spelled in the KJV):
So here's the basic story. The israelites are all living peacefully when the Palestinians attack, and a big war ensues. david was a young adolescent at the time, somewhere between 12-16. His brothers all went off to war, and he stayed home to tend the family sheep.

the brothers go to the front line, where king solomon has worked out a deal with the Palestinians: a one-on-one match, between the best warriors from either country. The winner wins the entire war, meaning the retreat of the Palestinians or the conquering of Israel. Unfortunately, the Palestinians have a really, really big guy named Goliath (that was really his name, where the term comes from) who stood about 8-12 feet tall (it was in cubits, and no one really agrees on how much that really is). No one wanted to fight him. While everyone hides, Goliath makes all sorts of derogatory comments about the Israelites and their religion.

Meanwhile.....
David's father sends him to the front line with supplies for his brothers and the army. When he arrives, he finds the situation quite disturbing, and goes and tells king solomon that he will be the one to fight Goliath. He is a faithful boy, and believes God will protect him. He eventually convinces the king, and prepares himself by gathering seven smooth stones from a riverbed, along with a sling. When he faces Goliath, the giant is suitably humored. However, David slings a stone, and strikes Goliath between the eyes, killing him instantly. The Palestinians all flee in fear of David, who is a hero, and moves on to become the king david who makes up much more of the Old Testament.

The End

Epic Journey honestly sounds a little longwinded. A Title should be short and to the point. I voted David's Journey.

Of course, it's always fun to make things a little more long-winded than necessary, such as:
The Tale of David's Epic Questing Journey.  ;)

On a more serious note, I'll have to think about what to vote for.


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

"Tale of David, the Ultimate Warrior Who Managed To Be the First Person To Ever Lolify Netham45 and Turn Him Into a Lobster". Is that long enough? :P
