We were joking around in the IRC, and somehow came to the idea of a game where you fight Epyc as a boss. Then I said that someone should make a KYM RPG. Then I realized, I should make a KYM RPG. I got all the tools required from a humble bundle deal forever ago. I haven't used them yet, but if I worked up the motivation I could easily learn to use them in a few days. What followed after that was a fun discussion about what that game should look like. Some ideas:
1) The player would be KYM-tan
2) The world would be set up in a series of towns, with the mods as mayors. Like, Arcanine's would kick people out often, and RM's would probably be the largest of all.
3) Along the way, you meet some of KYM's most infamous users, past and present (but only if the present users say it's okay to cast them in that light). E.g. Karoler might be a mini-boss, Lisa might be an anti-hero, etc
4) Alternatively, you could fight the mods, going up the chain of notability and power until you reach James, the webmaster.

So, what do you think? Ideas, suggestions? I'm not actually sure if I'll follow through with this idea, but it's certainly a possibility.

Getting the roles straight will definetly be the most critical part of this. We should use as many users as we can.

I believe MajorZero is currently working on a KYM RPG, keeping us occasionally updated via the KYMChat Skype group. I think it's meant to be a turn-based game. Peacock Roy has already composed a few songs for its to-be OST.

Perhaps you could cooperate with him? To be blunt, we've had a lot of failed projects in the past, so it would probably make sense to work together on anything of this magnitude.

I don't intend to set the bar high for this project, and one person has already offered to help with the game. Plus, something tells me our ideas for them are drastically different anyways.

I know there's been a lot of failed projects, and I don't have any illusions about this one having a huge chance at succeeding. But at the very least, it could help me learn more about KYM's history and teach me how to use these programs I bought forever ago.

do eeeet.

Do we have a KYM card game because I feel like that's got so much more potential in hilarity.

Not that I'm aware of, but that's a really good idea. Somebody should do that, maybe it'll be finished :l

Btw, would you mind if we casted you as a villain or anti-hero? I was considering adding the more controversial users in those positions, if they wouldn't mind. Just imagine Lisa the Edgelord as a boss. If not, that's fine. I literally came up with the idea for the game a few hours ago, so anything could happen :l

lmao that's fine w/ me. I'm clearly more a-h than villain tho.

"Memes Against Humanity"
I like the sounds of that

We have a few custom CAH sets made by NeonWabbit which we play online on occasion.

No real "stand-alone" card game, though.

Useless dumb users like me should be town NPCs

I think infamous users would be like either easily-dispatched foes or bonus bosses, depending on level of infamy.

I'd play it.
Also, an idea: Weapons are based on memes. Early low tier ones being small memes, eventually getting up to memes everyone knows. Ex: Packed Wallet(filled with a small loan of a million dollars), Cat Bat(gives advice frequently), Zig(Move every single one), Basketball Clock(every increment reads "bad").

Useless dumb users like me should be town NPCs

That's the plan. Given this is the first game I'd make using rpg maker, the plan is to make it simple, small, and basic. Because of this, dialogue will be the focus. If you want to be put in as an NPC, just say so.

Weapons are based on memes.

One of the ideas for it is to have to get the ultimate weapon, the dankest meme, to defeat the final boss.

If you are interested in this idea, please take this short poll. It'll help us figure out what the story should be since we're a bunch of uncreative morons working on this.

I'd love to be included

I also really like how this is going

I'm an annoying shitposter, so I'd totally be like the Adoring Fan from Oblivion. Actually, that would be Lez Huarez.
