(If I'm posting this in the wrong forum, please tell me. I tried getting answer in the advice forum before and didn't get an answer. I'm new to this forum.)
First of all, I'm not a Game designer, not even close. The thing is, I love telling stories and an interactive media for storytelling is interesting. As I'm not very familiar with game development it's a lot of things I don't know, so things like game mechanics or main game play is impossible for me. This is more of a game narrative concept than a game concept.
Secondly, English is not my native language so any grammar out of place or anything like it is because of that. So please overlook such error, I don't know I do them.
Lastly, what I really want to know is: If this game really existed would you be interested in playing it? Why/Why not?
Name of the game: Memory Lost
Aimed platform: PC/Mac, DS3D
Basic game play: Kind of a point and click
Basic concept: Mystery game.
Basic Narrative: A young man is in an accident at a ski-resort, losing his memory as an result. Trying to fit the pieces of his life together becomes his task. At the same time his filthy rich family is trying to use his memory loss to make him break up with his male lover and instead marry the fiancée of their choice. The young man not remembering his relationship tries to find clues about whose lying and whose telling the truth. While regaining his memory a bigger plot comes in to place. The accident at the ski-resort was intentional, someone tried to take his life. If he doesn't find out who, he might lose his life this time.
First cut-scene: Kind of music like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjEMS4ydLhQ
It's a white background, snowflakes are gently falling, the camera moves slowly closer to the ground. Outlined beneath a layer of is the shape of a person, not clearly visible, laying on his side. Small puffs of steam comes out of his mouth. The camera moves closer to his face all the time. As his face comes closer the scene is slowly fading to white at the same time as sirens are heard at distance. Coming closer are a voice calling out a not really heard name, the voice is insistingly calling as the scene fades from white to black. As the scene goes black, as an echo the name is clearly heard once.
The first game scenes is when the player awakes at the hospital as the young man.
I don't have a name for the character yet, or any thoughts about his looks. If you have any opinions or ideas, feel free to tell me.
