Allright, I just came back from the second meeting. We picked up some feedback from the kids on the street and have decided to take the thing in a different direction. We're going to focus on sneaker combat, featuring The Earth Defence Squad, the E.D.F.
These guys are totally sweet ninja dudes with goggles that has shining red eyes and a cool gasmask. This will appeal to our demographic of 13 year olds screaming AOL kids. They will be battling aliens that are trying to infiltrate the starbase and plant a bomb. The playes can either join the E.D.F. or the aliens in short multiplayer skirmishes with a built in voice chat you can't turn off. Oh yeah, we were thinking there could be mechas too. These mechas are vulnerable to knife stabs, it's a gameplay balance thing that will be great fun in conjunction with the sneaker element.
IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN!!! I just came back from a meeting over at EA who just purchased all the licences! Here's my notes from the brainstorming meeting!
... etc. etc. etc. ...
I almost cried. Please don't ever do that again. I don't think my heart could take it after SC3.
