Interesting game concept

So, I was reading a book I like, and then I thought "This could translate into a game, But it needs something special" Later, I figured it out.

A game that is almost completely plot driven.

So this is the concept.

A GAME, THAT LETS YOU PLAY THROUGH THE "STORY's" OF EACH CHARACTER, SEEING EVERY EVENT FROM THERE POINT OF VIEW. ALL OF THE STORY's ARE CONNECTED. YOU CANNOT CONTROL THE STORY.

thoughts?

I've already seen games like this before, but not on Scratch, so this would be intriguing to see. I always have liked how you could pick different characters becuase then that gives variety to the game, though it could be more work.

Anyway, I'm just curious, are you planning on making a game with this concept?

Re: Interesting game concept

Maybe. I don't get much time to program. If I did it, it would be the Hero, Villan, and some other important character who is neutral as the Points Of View

Re: Interesting game concept

I think it's completely possible. Try not make it TOO plot-driven, give the player an actual challenge too.

What was the book, may I ask?

Well, everything to me IS very hard,and games like mario would have like 100+ scripts and 100+ sprites if it was in scratch!

You see,I am LAZY sir,LAZY.
Very lazy that i have never even helped some new scratchers on scripts.

Re: Interesting game concept

And I haven't started  researching yet on some very hard projects!
I just only know how to make sprites for background switching,timers
and navigation and stuff and percentages like

pick random (1) to (10)
See? I don't expect much of research and big plans and big stuff.
I just take classes on Scratch.
