No Mike?

[rightaboutnow]

ST3 has no Mike? It's been 15 years since ST1 came out and when ST2 did, it only made Mike 2 years older when the game came out 4 years later. At oldest, Mike would be 22 years old. We could say that he went to medical school but also keep him in the same range since like the Simpsons, it's only animation.

Thnx for working on ST3 whoever is doing so, btw.

I hope there's no more time travel, just more islands and especially, more emotional music.

Of course this fan game isn't an official nintendo game so the creator (matt) dosn't have to make mike the main character Mike if he dosn't want to. It does make sence that he would want the main character to be named matt since that is the creators name.

There's two versions of StarTropics III that are currently being worked on... one by myself and one by Matt. My game will feature Mike as the main character because in my opinion, it wouldn't be a StarTropics game without him in the lead. Also, rest assured, there will be no time travel in mine. I definitely have some large plans as far as islands and Sub-C goes but it will probably be months before I even get to it. In the meantime, you can find my other thread on the progress of my game including a demo here startropics.proboards41.com/index.cgi?board=stgames&action=display&thread=1127703215

I'm not certain wether the main character will be Matt or Mike. Its just that ever since I can remember, my own brother who's name is coincidentaly Mike has played StarTropics, and I had always wished there had been a Matt character. I think as I develop the storyline Matt will either end up as a side character or not at all, because as a man named Joe Dirt once said "Well ya see thats the thing, its not what you want man, its the consumer" so Mike will probably be the main character.

That's where the joys of Creative Lisence come into the picture!!! Thanks to the excuse of making these games for fun and not for money, you can do what you want with the old story lines and build off of them!!

By the way...I can't wait to see more demos from both of you!!

Thanks guys.

Can I make a suggestion? I don't know if its too late and I know that its you who's making the game here but...I think the game will be funner for all of us fans if we see the storyline unravel while playing the game kinda like ST1 and ST2 do when you play it and you just know that the first time you beat the game won't be the last time that you do so again.

I'd like to see some drama, or more conflict to get us players more into the game's story.

I think that the creators should make the game the way they want. Even if the main characters a girl it's their game and they can do what they want.

That would be a great twist, near the end of the game... Matt sees the fortune teller to reenter Shecola. Queen Shecola provides a new weapon for "Mat... ilda... Matilda!" and then he/she stays that way into ST4!!
