| 23:17.33 | Zolden | or a boss fight game where each player may become a boss, others fight him |
| 23:17.45 | Zolden | next round another player is the boss |
| 23:17.50 | DeadZergling | fun idea there zolden, except one thing |
| 23:17.54 | DeadZergling | no one wants to be the players |
| 23:17.58 | DeadZergling | all will want to be the boss |
| 23:18.00 | A1win | hehe |
| 23:18.17 | A1win | depends how fun the player characters are to play |
| 23:18.18 | Zolden | each side may have its adventage |
| 23:18.44 | A1win | could rotate pretty quickly too |
| 23:18.51 | A1win | like 1vs3 or so |
| 23:18.53 | DeadZergling | maybe A1Win |
| 23:18.58 | DeadZergling | but think of it is this way |
| 23:19.08 | DeadZergling | if you joined a game, with 1 boss slot, and 7 player slots |
| 23:19.13 | DeadZergling | what slot you gonna want |
| 23:19.16 | Zolden | maybe being a boss brings experience, while being a player brings artifacts |
| 23:19.28 | A1win | that's why it wouldn't be 1v7 |
| 23:19.50 | DeadZergling | Boss AI is fun to play with anyways |
| 23:19.53 | Zolden | there won't be slots, game willl chooose bosses runtime |
| 23:19.59 | DeadZergling | I possibly made my second boss, White Mage, a little too good |
| 23:20.15 | A1win | yeah, the scripted fight would be more interesting to design |
| 23:20.42 | DeadZergling | she summons treants, can mass root, can AE knockback, can cast white, can swing her big hammer |
| 23:20.48 | DeadZergling | and if that isn't working out, she just heals herself |
| 23:20.49 | DeadZergling | lol |
| 23:22.16 | A1win | also |
| 23:22.24 | DeadZergling | still, had a lot of fun making a Medic a dreaded boss unit |
| 23:22.33 | A1win | we're making an indie game that's 1vs4 so it might become too similar to that :P |
| 23:24.45 | A1win | haha what if the boss arena is randomly selected from a "terrain" that has varying areas in it |
| 23:25.01 | A1win | so the same boss fight can be very different depending on the arena |

| 23:35.03 | DeadZergling | so any luck figuring out something to do yet a1? |
| 23:35.40 | A1win | well... thinking about the boss fight stuff |
| 23:36.28 | DeadZergling | main issue with that is, unless you have an existing project w/ heroes |
| 23:36.38 | DeadZergling | have to develop some basic heroes to fight against him to be worth making |
| 23:36.44 | A1win | yea |
| 23:37.16 | DeadZergling | of course, could slap some basic heroes together pretty easily |
| 23:37.34 | DeadZergling | nuker/healer/melee/archer |
| 23:37.46 | DeadZergling | make it like a boss fight gauntlet |
| 23:37.52 | DeadZergling | goal being to kill the final boss |
| 23:38.46 | DeadZergling | speaking of which, i'll need to develop my third boss soon, lol |
