T.Hodd: I always wanted to make a game from nothing and so I've been working with friends on coding a text-based RPG in Python 3 since 2015. It's got quite complex and it's only going to get worse. I'm planning to release a
very early access alpha 0.6.7 soon so that you can play it and give me feedback on how to make it even better.
In the mean time I need to think of as many good names for weapons/enemies/etc to replace the dull generic names we've used in development so far. I was going to run a competition for the best name in each category, but I decided that this wouldn't be fair. Instead I'll credit the users who get their suggestions in the game. If you don't want to be credited or want to be credited by a name other than your username, just say so (in your post or send me a PM).
So here are the categories that I need names for: -Weapons (of any kind).
-Helmets.
-Chestplates (upper armour).
-Shields.
-Lower armour (like trousers but better!).
-Shoes/boots.
Ideally, post in the following format so I can put it in the game more easily: {"o_name1": "a NAME", "o_name2": "NAME", "h_effect": 0, "p_effect": 0, "req_xp": 0, "price": 0, "rarity": 0, "iD": 1000}
Eg: {"o_name1": "a sword", "o_name2": "sword", "h_effect": 0, "p_effect": 0, "req_xp": 0, "price": 0, "rarity": 0, "iD": 1000}
Any names for enemies can be post in this format: monster("NAME", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) Eg: monster("Dave", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)
Additionally, any names for spells & ablities would also be great. If you have any suggestions or questions regarding the game, feel free to ask. Also if you have any names for the game itself (Which will focus around battles and dialogue) that are better than the generic working name 'Knights & Taverns' please suggest them to.
Last but not least, those wiser in the ways of Python 3 than me, please look at the
'battle' subroutine and tell me of any improvements for efficiency or any others errors as my coding is notoriously inefficient.
Dude I'm down to help you out with ideas :D I'm a fantasy writer currently writing a novel myself :P
