《New hope online》I need more time
Advertisement
Yes, the game is finally finished downloading now I just gotta wait for everyone else in my family. we all promised each other that we wouldn't start without each other. after another four or five minutes. We were ready to go I sent out a message to everyone's phone. and started the timer, my helmet was already on. ok, 3 2 1 go. I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep. when I woke up I was floating in place staring at the door in front of me. Then I went to the door and tried to open t but before I opened the door. a warning came up and a screen popped up in front of me. It said all the usual game stuff like license agreements and wavers which I signed after skimming thru it. ( who actually reads the whole thing). once I accepted and signed everything. I opened the door an walked thru when I got to the other side I was surrounded by at least two-thousand players. all of them looking up at the sky towards the 2 hulking angel guys one with black slick wings while the other one had, White beautiful puffy wings. After a while of waiting the figure spoke.
Angels: Hello as you can probably tell this is the beginning here is where you choose your side the monsters or the adventures. yes we would usually have an ai to accompany you explain the backstory and things but as of right now we totally forgot design one so what we're gonna do is divide you by faction. than well put you thru a small training course and the monsters and humans well than meet up and begin their assault on each other. since there might also be some special cases we will deal with that when the time comes. so choose your side.

Me as soon as he said that a screen popped up in front of me and asked me to choose my side which I, of course, chose monsters. my family had already chosen what we're gonna be beforehand, most of my family chose to be adventures while I and the twins chose to become monsters. we chose the monsters for different reasons but it all comes back to one thing the special package that came with the game . since we were such a big family we ordered for special options to come with the game so on the monsters side we got extra options. and on the human's side, they got some extra options . Once we chose our side we got teleported away to a different area I was with at least a good seven hundred and fifty or so players. which generally makes since more people want to become the hero . then the guy with black wings appeared overhead he started talking and explaining what was happening next. which was the race selection screen there was a multitude of races and a half and half races as well which were cool but I didn't come for any of those races i came for one of the special options the dungeon race. you may be asking why but the fact is I like commanding people destroying others thru smarts, not physical strength.
so ill chose the dungeon race I can control everything in my own dungeon im like a mini-god after scrolling over to it and selected it once I was the dungeon race I then proceeded to another place dark and spooky but instead of one of the angels telling me what to do. I got blue text appearing in front of me which was cool in my opinion. I like to hear fewer people talking .after a good 10 minutes of the screen telling me what to do and how to do it I was done with a small room about 20 by 20 feet with good support on the sides and a plethora of test monsters and beast. which the tutorial said I could only choose one style of monster when the game really started. so basically this was just a test. the tutorial also explained how I was gonna be in the battle between the monster and the adventurer side. since I am a dungeon im technically placed as a monster but im more neutral than anything because both adventures and monsters can come in and get exp .and good gear.

the monsters and the humans would fight over the land that I was placed on for superiority and whoever got finished beating the boss monster on the fifth floor first won once that happened the winning side would get a small advantage in the game which was just some gift but if either side could beat me by the time ran out I would win. in my opinion, I think this is a great way to do things and engage players in the combat system while having fun an enjoying a big battle. I then learned that since the monsters were lacking in players they would be allowed to small camp which they have fortified around dungeons. while the adventures haft to attack that and the dungeon. but none of that really concerns me as of right now what I need to do is wins so. its time to make floors and add monsters. usually in dungeons the floors are easy at the beginning but get harder and harder as you go down. Ha nope, i would do that if it weren't for the prize I want it and as of right now im surrounded by all sides. I gave them some kind of hope though
so what I did was make the first floor filled with level 5 mobs any random mob I had I threw rats snakes bugs anything and on the second floor i made it a little more refined the maze went everywhere having hundreds of pathways most of which le back to the beginning I also made sure that it was foggy and all the monsters on the second floor were hidden inside the wall the third floor was way more spacious but only because I put packs of wolves and other big monsters and beast that would attack the players there is no way I could define any of this which makes me very sad actually I wish I had more time but between the tutorial and me setting this up I cant make it all how I want to . the fourth floor was a swamp with pathways leading to death and great treasure. and the fifth floor I made it a maze again only because I had the idea of making a roaming boss he would be a minotaur with a one-handed ax and shield. I also wanted him to be a wandering boss because of the myth of course, but also because all boss monsters can be controlled by the player. im gonna become a minotaur running around cruising all the people. of course, the boss monster is only level 10 and the all the other monsters in my dungeon level 5 I should be able to hold off the attackers for now.

Shadows in the Dawn Mist
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - Winner November 2020 When a young woman is lured back to her homeland for the opportunity of a life time, she must face old fears. But never would she think that facing up to her past would change everything. Is History written by the victors, or by someone or something else...? *** I started writing this a few years ago and eventually fell out of love with it. I never finished it and my newer books are being written in different writing style, and genre with a more planned process. I decided to revisit it for the writathon and found that it wasn't as hopeless as I'd come to think. Hopefully, I've improved as a writer since them so the consistency may vary. Its been good to revisit and analyse my writing which I feel used to have some clunky and obvious dialogue which I'm trying to fix. This will always be my first novel and I hope, with a little exposure, I may come to like it again. Thanks for reading!
