Instead of making this game about a group of ‘cool’ individuals, I decided to make a game based on a group of misfits. This group of people will have little strengths, but this game focuses on their negatives. So instead of a character that has the specialty of smooth talking women, there is someone who is terrible at talking to people under pressure. When the player is controlling this character, the main focus is to avoid conversation with people or their cover will be blown.
This game takes place on a casino that is also a ship. The group are trying to help a friend who has lost his life savings at the casino. He only lost a small amount of money, but the group feel sorry for his loss and want to help him. They are only set on stealing the exact amount their friend had lost, even if they spend more money in preparation.
Here are some of the characters:
Maxwell
Maxwell is the leader of the group. He is a very tall individual that sticks out like a sore thumb. He is also has a terrible stutter, but strangely enough Maxwell is an incredibly confident person.
Sam
Sam is a very slow mover, who cannot speak and has trouble thinking. What Sam lacks in brains, he makes up in strength.
Ivan
This ex marine is the master of disguise, but he loves to dress up in women’s clothing and is slightly mad. He is also a master at hand to hand combat and has an incredibly short temper.
Nicola
This computer whiz is extremely timid and hates interacting with people. If someone manages to talk to her, her cover will be blown. She is that transparent!
