Okay for a possible game idea, I wish to do a platformer with Role play game mechanics included. The actual concept is based around a pirate's adventure to seek out treasure and defeat enemies along the way. This will be a side scrolling platformer like Yoshie's Island or Mario. There's another game that's influenced me in this direction, Dust: An Elysian Tail which is an action RPG done as a side scroller.
What I had in mind in regards to the RPG elements is when the player character (the pirate) defeats a really strong foe guarding the end of level treasure, the boss will drop a piece of equipment required to strengthen the character in some way.
Even if I don't get to do this idea now, later I'll get back to it and develop it further.
I figured doing something like this would a lot less time consuming than a proper rpg like my attempt at Milk Run last year. While I love rpg games the most out of all game genres, there's just so much involved in it like the battle system, dialogue, navigation, characters, towns, dungeons and inventory system. I chose not to include soundtrack in that list because that's an important part to all games.
Yeah so my plan would be a platformer with some rpg elements included.
