Re: New Infinite Apocalpytic Procedural Ascii Game "The Wastes"
@Soulkeeper, I thought there was an extra leg mutation already? not to mention the lizard tale/dragon tale.
then again, tentacles would be cool, you could wrap your enemy up in them so they couldn't attack you, and all the best games have tentacles .
I don't think Hell would fit with the theme of the wastes, sinse I always got the idea that Thewastes was more post appocalypse, albiet a very, whacky appocalypse, but one with an explanation not involving the powers of darkness, ie, more far out science fiction than streight up fantasy in theme.
What would be cool however and similarly nasty would be some sort of uba top secret government facility. We've seen the labs and military bases but where is the one that started it all?
Getting some of the backstory, whether the wastes was caused by a war or a neuclear accident, or
colliding with a comett, or a virus or whatever. Indeed for amusement value, and explaning why literally the hole of nature had gone random and weerd, maybe there are several causes, and perhaps some contradictory accounts of why, eg, some people think the neuclear reactor safeties shut down before the virus outbreak, others blaime the flood of chemical waste dumped into the sea at the same time a coorporation was secretly trying to seed the rain clouds with mind altering drugs to keep the population passive.
Actually as we already have books, this could be rather fun, particularly if said evil government facility was full of uba monsters, mega weapons and super mutating vials.
