Truth is a Christian Arcade\Role-Playing Game that has a deep story. Here is an overview of the story:
It is current day. A S.W.A.T squad is sent to what appears to be a distress call from a resident in the rural areas of Nevada (which is, rural). Our character, James Ascroft (I've already used this name before as the star of the Fog 1&2, oh well, nobody can get enough action these days) Apparently, he has suffered a loss (which will not be revealed yet) and has split off from his faith (which is Christian, of course) The distress call is real; an extraterrestrial is at the scene, and is trying to make contact. But when Ascroft thinks God really has no purpose, he is wrong. The 'aliens' are not what there appear to be, and their message is 'there are no gods, you are gods.' And then what appeared to be the saving of humanity is the damnnation of it, really (pun intended, the word was used Biblically) The aliens are demons, and when the government, and all other citizens dissuade him, he is only left with his trusty squad God gives him power to destroy these demons, in which, our charater finally realizes that Jesus is real, and God, is the only way.
Sound Good.
Does it have to be a christian game? I'm Catholic buit I don't think religion translates well into gaming. I don't mind religious themes, but a 'message' just seems tacky.
Ok, so people are entitled to believe what they want to , I can accept that. What I can't accept is putting "messages" into game conveying Christian messages, or any message from any religion for that matter, it just seems to be luring people into your beliefs using a game. lol it's quite typical of modern Christianity actually, if the pupils of the school are invited to a christian meeting, you get some serious people, and then you get the other 250 who only came because there was free food. I'm just saying ... find an environment where your messages are welcomed by everyone in it( try smegsoft lol )
Man, im happy there's at least one christian other than me in the game-making business, i bet this topic will probably be locked because people will start like a forum-riot or something, but i really really like this idea, and feel sorry for people that dont. Its a useful, clever idea, even if it is trying to get people to be christian, i just wish more people would involve themselves in it(this isnt a "who's christian, and who's not" thing, its a question gamerdudetom made about needing a graphics artist, someone support him. It's actually a really clever idea, thumbs up on storyline, and im surprised that all game-makers have to be regularly-drunk, cuss alot, and have no beliefs, why not actually think life has a point? But whatever, this is too much for me, good luck on your game, and good luck finding someone to help you in this kind of "loving" community.

So are you saying that am I going to be persecuted for this? And yes, believe whatever you want to believe. All I am asking for is help to make a great game (that is likely to be released on the market, so watch out) and you expect me to find an enviroment where my messages are welcomed? Isn't this "The Daily Click," where people who NEED HELP go to get help? As for the 250 who went for free food, well, they still heard the message.

Oh dear. Whats with all the dramatic photoshop images that take around 5 minutes to make? How do they relate to your game? Im interested to know.
That wasn't photoshop actually. And is that a compliment? If it is, thanks. How do they relate? Looks intense, huh? I don't expect this game to be "kiddie" in any way. You want a deep, dark, Christian game (within boundries of the faith) you have one. I don't want a kiddie game, and I'm sure neither do you. So I'm down with that.

That depends on how to look at it. I think the message fits well into there. And don't worry, I'm not going to get mad at you for being a Catholic (although your signature has some, say, colorful words?)

i won't touch this with a 10ft. cross.
Well don't then. I don't really care. You aren't making me angry or sad. It's you and God, not me.

jesus hates double posts.
I prefer it Jesus, and what does that mean exactly? You make no sense whatsoever.
Quote:
seriously man ... no. and what exactly are you trying to do with this idea of yours? are you trying to convert people over to christianity?
Yes.
Quote:
@JP- The Romans already did that for you
No sense again whatsoever. I'm 13, just to let you know.

But I think this sounds good...Sure, it sounds all 'Jesus is Lordish' but it still sounds fun.
I'm an Orthodox- my religion is older then yours, Teapot! Let's start a Holy War!!!
Jesus is the Lord. And it will be fun, or else I myself will not release it.

Thanks for that. Why do you have to cuss, have blood, in a game. Is there any point (blood, in some way, especially FPSes, I could understand. But not the extent of overdoing it (Doom 3) This community seemed nice. Hopefully it is.

Dear God, this game sounds so awful it would almost be fun! O_o
Sashman: Please explain to me exactly why this game would be 'useful'.
Well, I'm glad your happy. This game is useful for spreading the word of Jesus Christ's everlasting salvation. Well, then, does that answer your question?
I suppose most of you know very little about the Bible, and I'm afraid, will raise up points or rants that have already been answered, been explained. Go ahead. Ask till you die. But use common sense. Please. I am not afraid of what you have to say, or will say.
I think you need to spend a little more time on the internet to get forum jokes gamerdudetom.
A double post is when you accidentally post the same thing twice. You can tell this was the case because:
A. I wrote "jesus hates double posts"
B. There is an edit symbol on the second one.
C. The second one is right after the first one.
Lazarus was playing off my first joke. As we all know the Romans nailed Jesus to the cross for claiming to be the son of god.
I find it... arrogant that you are calling the game "Truth", I feel that it's a word that should be reserved for solid fact, not opinions, interpretations, beliefs, or faith.
Anyway if it looks like a good game I will play it regardless of the religious intent.

YES I WANT A KIDDIE GAME! im more likely to download a kiddie game than an emily bishop game!
You still havent given reason or related the images to your game?
