Board Thread:Off-topic/@comment-26325750-20160214004644

Sorry about my absence from the wiki. I've been working on something to send to the Crewniverse, but I'm pretty sure you already know what it is by looking at the title of this discussion. And yes, I know they already released Attack The Light, but the RPG genre and Steven Universe go hand in hand. I just couldn't resist making plans for another!

I've planned out a lot of things for this game, such as some of the story, or things like stat layouts and status ailments, but recently I hit a writers block, and that's why I'm calling on this community to help me out

Stat layouts function like base stats in Pokemon as they themselves do not change, but the actual stat changes when the character levels up.

Characters ingame are: Steven, Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, Connie, Lion, Lapis, and Peridot.

The elements are Energy, Arcane, Water, Resonance, Frost, Shadow, Physical, Nature, Mechanical, Beastial, Thunder, Poison, and Fire.

Please take this project at least semi-seriously.

Here's an example of character layout, the only one I finished entirely before my writers block.



Connie

Theme: Passive: Something between Connie’s original theme and"Once Upon A Time"  /"Undertale" /"His Theme"  /"Hopes And Dreams" / "Last Goodbye"  (Undertale) 

Battle: Connie’s passive theme sped up and remixed likeNeku's version of "His Theme"  with a touch ofKalbur  and Howwl_.
