Psycholypse. The Ultra-epic-zombie-survival-forum-game-of-what-could-be-doom.

Psycholypse!

That evil forum game I proposed earlier is about to come to life. This game might have to go slow though, since everyone is still getting used to the new forums.

WHAT THE HECK IS THIS GAME?! HOW DO WE PLAY IT?!

This game is relatively simple. To sum it up, you will be given choices. You must choose what you think is best. I will wait one day for each post I make to progress the game...the majority vote wins. If we get a tie, I will choose the choice that was voted upon first. (Sorry. But re-votes might make the game continue too long.)

This game is a survival game. Even if all choices seem bad, you must choose one. TO SURVIVE. Pirate

Before we even get started...here are some basic rules.

  • By start-out, you only get 3 lives. If you lose all three, you just don't get to play to the ending. (You also get no soup.)
  • Once a choice is made, you cannot go back unless the choice you made kills you. If it kills you, you will have to go back to the previous choices, with the previous mistake crossed out.
  • Yes, the game has an ending. GET TO IT.
  • Your character doesn't have a magical inventory. You may only carry 1 primary weapon, such as an assault rifle, and 1 secondary weapon, such as a pistol. You always have a knife on you, but it is NOT RECOMMENDED to use it to attack a zombie if the situation ever calls for it and you have a gun.
  • Choices that can cause any part of the infection to make contact with your character's eyes or mouth can cause a game over. You aren't invincible to the infection you know.
  • Any item can go in your 3rd slot. Even a pet. Just make sure the pet isn't...infected.

Now the game starts. Sadly, before the story even starts, you must choose a trait. Then you must choose some weapons. Choose wisely.

Traits

  •  Ammo-conserving. You use half as much ammo when using a gun to kill something.
  •  Aware. In certain situations in-game, you may notice things that the ordinary person may miss.
  •  Intelligent. In certain situations in-game, you will know the repercussions of actions many people would not even think of before doing.
  •  Fast-Reflex. In certain situations in-game, your fast reflex just might save your life.
  •  Die-hard. You get 2 extra lives when starting the game.
  •  Pack Mule. You get 2 primary weapon slots, 1 secondary weapon slot, and one "third" item slot.

Weapons - Primary

  • Benelli M4 Super 90 (M1014) (Shotgun)
  • M4 Carbine (Assault Rifle)
  • Stealth Recon Scout .338 (Sniper Rifle)

Weapons - Secondary

  • Desert Eagle (Pistol)
  • Skorpion (SMG)

The HUD described in one simple image. (note that it only shows up like this if there is one player left. If there are multiple players, the results will be displayed in icons and the such to save space.

Yar. Let there be decisions! And creds to RAVSO for helping to spiffy up the HUD. Gasp

Background story:

You and many others run a black market operation. Selling military-power weapons to anyone who can be trusted for a good profit. You manage to stay undercover by having the front-store appear as a convenience store. Under the store is where your operations take place.

One eventful day, you and your comrades hear the alarm go off-an overly aggressive intruder has made their way to your operations without permission! You must eliminate the threat now!

But before you go out to attack, you reflect upon yourself. You must remember what trait made you above all others, and must also realize what weapon you specialized in...

A forum co-op game. You guys are going to have to make decisions to progress the story. The choices are made on majority vote. In the case of a tie, the first choice that was voted on will be chosen to save time.

Before an attack by zombies though, each one of you individually will be pm-ed your own battle. You gotta fight that out with a good choice of your own. DON'T GET HIGH ON CHOICES NOW. Most of the time, only one of the 4 choices I give you are the correct choices if you don't have a good trait for the battle situation.

If you are killed, and have more lives, you basically spawn on the next day. HOW UNREALISTIC! But losing all lives will get you no soup unless a teammate locates an unusual item within another unusual item. These unusual items will grant a godly grace on a permanently dead player, and bring them back into the game.

Alright good people. I'll be checking back on this game in about 30 hours or so to start it.
