TheSoundNinja posted:Mr. Fowl: Cyberpunk and/or Transhumanism Ahaha, this is essentially the opposite of the Fantasy Anime RPG problem--the seminal works of the genre defined our RPGs! This will be interesting--I'll have to find an angle with a unique voice. Well, one that's doable. I don't think I can turn something in the vein of Qualia of Purple into an RPG. Error 404 posted:Ok, so do you mean like detective/perky kids/ scooby doo type mystery here? Like solving a crime? Here's three wildly different examples of Mystery anime: Cased Closed/Detective Conan, Monster, and Mushi-Shi. The first is Scooby-Doo, the second is a long serial thriller, the third is basically X-Files in Japan.

Error 404 posted:Thank you I will check these out! Caveat: The first two are very long. Conan you can get the gist of in a few episodes. It's a kids show with your basic Whodunit formula. Monster is impressive but probably too long to get into as prep for this contest. Mushi-shi is episodic and only 46 episodes total. Really chill mystery show with a mix of horror and fantasy.

frankenfreak posted:Alright, I definitely need some examples here since "business" sounds very vague and generic on its own. Try Misapporpriations Investigator Rintaro Nakabo. It's a manga by the artist of Fist of the North Star. Imagine if a guy built like Kenshiro were empowered by Bill Clinton to fix the Japanese economy after the bubble burst. Of course, our esteemed OP may also be referring to the variety of anime and manga themed around workplaces.

Chihayafuru is also totally a sports anime, but you know, with a card game based around classical poetry. It's got friendship and poo poo all up in it like a sports anime should.

TheSoundNinja posted:A part of the reason to include Transhumanism was to try and offset that. The anime's themes would be more important. An important part of the cyberpunk in anime is philosophizing about transhumanism--which I will endeavor to make a mechanic in my game.

TheSoundNinja posted:Also, the ship he's in has a huge laser called... This looks more like the cover of a DVD box set for a TV series than a movie poster. EDIT: There was a mystery box?

Given how many people are participating in the contest and the various goon IRCs for pbp out there--I can't imagine it will be too hard to find people willing to kill some time on a few quick games. However--I could foresee like, a GENERAL extension for entries due to the volume. Even if there's people willing (and a lot of people in the contest) there's likely going to be a lot of people doubling up inside and outside the contest group in order to make sure everyone gets a playtest and that's quite a few hours.

Agent Rush posted:Speaking of the blurb, is that 150 words in the OP an exact amount, a minimum, a maximum? Or some other thing I didn't explicitly name? Both. This competition demands precision.

TheSoundNinja posted:Remember, "Sequel Series" doesn't require it to be an actual sequel - just that something from before affecting the present. Transhumanity is technically the sequel to humanity.

Wax Wings -Memories of Labyrinth- A Rᴏʟᴇ-Pʟᴀʏɪɴɢ Gᴀᴍᴇ ᴏꜰ Hᴜᴍᴀɴɪᴛʏ, Iɴʜᴜᴍᴀɴɪᴛʏ, ᴀɴᴅ Wʜᴀᴛ Lɪᴇs Bᴇʏᴏɴᴅ In a certain City, a long time ago, the people of that City hold in their hearts the Memory of the Hero knowing that one day, that Hero will return. In a certain City, where the Daedalus System has allowed humanity to transcend the limits of flesh, the question “What Is Human?” becomes more pressing by the day. In a certain City, where Memory is as malleable as flesh, the only things that bind humanity to the world are the Threads that tie them to each other. In a certain City, where war has left a people and their city Broken, and turned that city into a dwelling place for monsters, a Labyrinth. In this City Called Labyrinth, from which none can escape, the people can only hope for the Hero’s return. Will you slay the monsters? Will you rise on Wings of Wax? Or will you become the Minotaur?
