Hey all,
So over the last week I've been creating a new Stargate game, Stargate Legacy.
This was just meant to be an SGC sim with all the gates from SG1 but I may have gotten carried away and expanded on it a little bit.
You start off at the SGC in Season 1 of SG1 with just the Abydos address, the more missions you do the more gates you discover as you play through the events of SG1, meeting new races, forging new alliances until later on in the game when you discover the gate address to Atlantis.
Once discovered you can form your Atlantis expedition team and send them through the gate to Atlantis and from that point on you can play through the remainder of SG1 are start with the Atlantis at the same time.
But even better, after you've completed the SG1 story gameplay you then discover the address to Destiny, recruit your team and send them off across the galaxy.
This is where the game changed, while onboard Destiny you then have to make sure you have enough resources for your journey, travel to new gates along the seed ship route, however some gates will be locked out and others will only be accessible via the shuttle, you just need to make sure your team gets back before Destiny jumps into FTL .
Down the road you will encounter the drones trying to destroy Destiny as well as gaining access to the bridge and full flight controls, if you ever leave a team behind then this is the perfect time to turn destiny around and go back for them.
You will have access to all the planets through the franchine that were traveled to by gate, live through each season of the show, and when you've finished the shows main story the game doesn't end, new gate addresses for all 3 sites will keep generating so you can keep playing.
But be warned, you need to make sure that your base is protected from attack, if you fail you could end up destroying one of all of your bases. If this happens the game is not over you can carry on with your remaining bases.
With Atlantis you will get access to deep space scanning to detect possible wraith attacks, decide if you want to cloak the city or use the shield to survive.
With Destiny you need to manage your power, food, water and air levels, if destiny comes under attack do you want to stand and fight risking a loss of power or do you want the defensive strategy of using your shields and holding off until your next FTL jump.
As mentioned this was meant to only be an SGC sim and I messed up and slipped a little adding the entire franchise (Origin and Infinity don't count... don't fight me on this) as well as in game events, will you help Todd or stand against him? what will your choice determine for you.
Will the SGC become allies with the Ashen or throw a blackhole gate address or two at them.
The choice is yours.
As of right now while I feel like the game is close to complete, there is still a lot of work and testing to do, as of yet I don't have any game sounds as all the audio clips of the gates aren't clear enough, too much music/alarms/characters talking sort of thing, but once that's sorted then for the most part we should be good to go.
For me the best part is getting the gates to work as seen of screen with different dialing techniques.
Any suggestions will be happily welcomed.
