Im implementing A totally Different view on gameplay...
Background: You start as a random animal... You have to kill others to keep yourself from starving to death. As well as growing into a much bigger threat.
Its as simple as that...
Soon to be-Features:
1)Everything Random.. You, camera angle, EVERYTHING.. as much as i can..
I want a complete new experience everytime..
2)Gold-is hunger, Wood-is Thirst
The idea behind this is.. Every so amount of hours you get hungry and thirsty.. so you feed on your kill and go to the nearest pond or lake to drink... Simple survival... But, in that knowledge other animals can stalk others... Which just creates the Conflict of LIFE i want..
3)Each animal is different.. Some are obvously stronger then others, while some are faster.. Have more Protection.. Life isnt balanced.. So creates dont have to be balanced.. Which creates Team Work... You get a couple of your breed and charge a much larger opponent.. You will have a feast...
So basically killing larger animals= more meat..
Wait.. how do you get meat.. hahaha.. They drop.. Depending on the Animal..
Q=So.. How do you get your hunger and thirst up?
A=easy.. see meat is actually healing your HP.. every kill (depending on the animal) automatically will give you your Gold/Hunger up.. Just like in any game..
4)Terrain.. This game is simple.. so the terrain has to be AWSOME for it to be fun.. I want the fealing you in the Forest/Jungle.. or a swampy section.. An Island!... a vast plain that gently rises to mountains..
5) There will be a small amount of SKills.. every creature will have a chance to Injure, Critical hit,Evade. Some more than others..
6) there will be an option saying, how many recarnations you want.. 0-5 or something.. But you dont recarnate back to your previous animal.. Its random.. So i guess you might get it back.. but who knows... Also.. some animals will have a higher chance to be, so there will be more of some kind then others..
7)There will be AI.. in a way.. it will be simple triggers for that.. pretty much kill certain animals then look for player/grow.. stuff like that.. easy..
There is also just creeps, but some arent just going to stand there.. they will move.. its yourself who has to rememberize there paths they take.. what watering hole do they visit.. things like that..
8)Every one starts with 100 Hunger and Thirst. 24 hours = 2 min.. So i will make it every 6 seconds you loose 1 hunger.. so this requires fast gameply and fast action.. no dobbling around.. once you get 0 hunger your health drops 50 HP every 10 seconds after that, untill death... so 5 days with out food sounds good.. I will also make a trigger if unit gets above 100 hunger set 100 hunger.. so no one can get like 500 and then just run around finding poeple.. thirst is a different story.. i will make it you can last 1 day w/o water.. (why? its SUPER HOT!!!!) and being thirsty your attack speed will decrease/stamina/strength.. things like that.. also.. hunger will do the same/or should it?... so.. i changed it.. every second you loose 1.2 thirst.. so you can last 83 seconds with out water.. which is about 1 and a half days almost..
9).. I was just thinking.. When your an adult you should use less hunger because no need to grow.. so i will make it you loose half as much gold per second..
10) Should i have "breeding" so you dont get bored when your an adult.. It will give you chance to make a family.. ..
which succesfully is the point in LIFE.. LOL.. ... so if im going to do this.. how would i breed... any ideas.. I could make female and male animals.. and animals can breed that way.. NOW i just thought of something... look down...
11) If breeding is ok.. then.. mixed breeds.. which will be fun..

Let me know what you think..

Help...
I need ideas for other animals..
I need to make it where other creeps attack other creeps if they see each other.. I cant just make it to where there all on the same teem.. but i need room for PLAYERS.. so making a computer player wont help much...
Some one who is good at terraining, could give me advice, or if they want to help just message me.. i rather take advice first..
any ideas.. anthing.. i need your opinions GUYS!!
----
So that pretty much sums it up.. I want this to be fun, yet something to do for a little/long while depending on your SURVIVAL.. hehe..
Also.. the units WILL NOT Be heros.. well.. now thinking of it.. i could make an adult a hero because they cant grow... but/they could get older and get weaker.. :.... Hmmm..
pretty much it..
