Ok the Name of the game is C.A.N.C.E.R.(Cerebral and Nuerological Crisis and Emergency Response). The game takes place in a not too far away future(2018 give or take a year). The worlds economy is booming and scientists are on the virge of developing an interplanetary travel mechanism.

An underground organization, ran by secretive A.C.O.L.I.T.E’s(Advancement for the C.A.N.C.E.R. Organization and Limitation of Innovative Technologies Enthusiast), wants to prevent this from happening. However, they do not accomplish their goals with brute force or bribery. Instead they enlist C-N.A.P.s(Central-Nervous system Assault Personnel) to enter their target’s bodies and shutdown their entire nervous system then leave seemlessly. The C-N.A.P.s have access to a special suit that allows the subject to shrink down to size and withstand the pathways of the human anatomy.

The A.C.O.L.I.T.E.s hire our Protagonist, Johnathan Arbor, as a Temporary C-N.A.P. After his first mission they are exeptionaly pleased and hire him for future kills.

A few things i should note about Johnathan Arbor is that he is not like other C-N.A.P.s whom use guns and other unsophisticated means to get the job done. John has psychic abilities which he obtains on his first mission when he confronts a rampant nueron. After the fight Johnathan exits the targets body and collapses from exhaustion. He awakes to find his mind clear and sharp and oddly enough in his home dressed. He rushes over to his telephone to ask the A.C.O.L.I.T.E.s what had happened(remember he collapsed directly at the kill sight). To his surprise when he opens his mouth to speak nothing comes out.

Johnathan is distressed by this and attempts to consult his doctor as a walk-in patient.  As he travels the streets, filled with people, voices begin to appear in his head.  He can hear their thoughts.  As the story progresses Johnathan quickly gains control over his advanced mental state.  He gains abilities that he uses to control a C.A.N.C.E.R. target.  Some of his mundane abilities are telepathic speech and mindreading.

Slowly, as Johnathan’s powers become greater in strength his senses degrade at a similar rate(the first of which was his speech). Johnathan continues working for the A.C.O.L.I.T.E.s until he discovers the truth behind the them and begins the defy them ending up in a grand crusade to save humanity from becoming the puppets of an organization mad with power.

I have some pretty good ideas as to Johnathan’s talent trees and abilities. I have broken them into four categories: Pysco-Offensive, Metaphysical, Psycic Clarity, and Focus.

As you probably have guessed PO is your basic purple beams and rays but this also includes some very awesome puppet abilities even massive army control at one point.

Metaphysical abilities are similiar to psycic fists and telekinesis. there are some defensive abilities however such as a forcefield spell even a reversal mirror.

Pyscic Clarity pertains to Johnathan’s regenerative abilities. He can obtain heal over time spells, direct heals, and a low grade shield.

Last but certainly not least is Focus. This tree was tricky to come up with as I hadn’t really thought of what focus is. I came up with that it is a support tree. some spells would be a buff that increases damage or healing for a certain amount of time. Focus is also johnathans energy source for his spells(so obviously there will be some talents that enhance his focus regeneration and pool)

Ummm… I do not own flash and am not really a good artist although i do have a clear picture of what i want it to look like in my mind. This is my first time doing anything like this so comments and criticism are welcome.

Well in order to be part of a gmae with no programming/art skills… You’d have to basically design the whole system. Then you may find some people to finish it and split the profits with you.

Uh, “finish it” isn’t really accurate. I think you mean “make it”. A story and rule system is good, but isn’t even half the picture unfortunately. That’s not to say this doesn’t have potential, I just want to make sure you go into this with realistic intentions (i.e. getting well below 50% of the profits, probably more like 20%). In the meantime, you could try to pick up some Flash programming online, or work on your drawing, so that you could help contribute more or create your own games in the future. :)

I do not make flash games and do not have the software to help with the game , but…. I most certainly can help with the storyline, the battle system spells and all that other stuff, just to let you know I would help for free and would accept no credit but I am a huge Action/RPG game fan so if you need my help at all just whisper or shout it on my profile

Uh…Suggestion? You’ve written a story. Why not just…Take up creative writing? RPing, if it suits you. Write a book. But if the only skill you have is writing a story, then perhaps look away from making games?
