Cortex Command: Gladiators (ideas for a new game)
This game idea is based on Shadow of Rome (PS2) and Cortex Command.
You control a gladiator stable. Onde you select a gladiator and equip him you will control him at the Arena.
You need gold to buy the weapons, armors (helmets, shoulder guards, leg greaves) and shields.
In the Arena, everything is based on Salvos, which is a stat that measures how happy the crowd is with you. When you kill or hit opponents you will get salvos. There are special types of salvos in the game (for example, "Bullseye Salvo" if you kill someone by throwing a weapon at their head or "Disarmed Salvo" amputating an arm).
More salvos = more gold to the gladiators owner (you).
The caracter weight will affect your velocity. Heavy weapons and armors = slowly moves.
All your itens have a "health" status. They can be broken.
- You can attack, defend (if you have shields) and jump.
- You can throw your weapons: Press aim (more time pressed = longest ranges) + attack
- To use your bow: Press aim + attack
- You can pick/drop weapons and shields.
Game modes: Deathmatch, Teammatch, Capture The Flag.
Free Multiplayer online.
I still working in the idea. If you have any ideas post them here. If you have found troubles help to find the solutions.
