On this day one year ago I sent Koramei her playtesting assignment.
Any chance of getting it?





"Remember, Yeeb, you can only become seraph after alienating the entire forum " - Shanks13 - Done
"The game play on this was very fun, and only improved on the standard set by the first mission, it doesn't feel out of place at all, as a moderator and his colleagues, with his backseat moderating pals you go around righting the wrongs of the mystic forum, while doing things by the book to avoid upsetting Papaya, who at times appears more than happy to either let your political career fall through the trap door, or even end your AoMH experience (a bit drastic at times but the game has a poetic license). Along the way you will meet new friends, lose old ones to spammers and conspiring figures of pop culture who have nothing better to do, try new things, and uncover AoMH's darkest secrets..." - Terminator_Ace
"yay I made it out of the quotes list, "Celebrate good times, come on, Dum Dum Dum Dum, Dum Dum, Dum Dum, DUM DUM"!" - Caribdus


The golden rule of showcasing: Always underestimate your progress so you can put stuff in when you're being lazy and people will think you're working on it. Also makes you look like a super-robot when you do the last 20% in a week.
Current Scenario Size: 1.9 MB (Now bigger than the community RPG)
Current playing time: Probably around 3 hours.
Current lag time at start: Around 20 seconds.

*Wants to break 2000 triggers*


What is this / What have you done this time guys?

This singleplayer scenario is going to be an RPG that will chronicle my past, present and future at AoMH.

Take on the role of Yeebaagooon as the newly-promoted Cherub and battle Elite Smurfs and Spam Lords as you climb the ladder of power. Ban people, recruit allies and undergo Seraph Training with Zen in your quest to become the Seraph of AoMH and to stamp out the forces of Spam. The fate of AoMH is in your hands, and only you can save it from destruction in the final mission.

There will even be choice dialogs that change the outcome of the mission! Each mission is set within an HG forum/sector with great eyecandy, stunning music, an addictive and humourous storyline and breathtaking triggerwork. If your breath isn't taken away then I'll take it away for you !

I hope that this map has a lot of interest, and as it is singleplayer, progress should be a lot faster than most of my other maps. Each mission takes a while to make, test and perfect.

My first true singleplayer map should be a milestone in the Scenario Design experience. This map will also feature guest starts from AoMH and will try to be as faithful to the truth as possible (well, for the past at least ).

Planning Specifications

Completed Missions: 3
Approximate Total Missions: 6
Completed Cinematics: A lot
Secret Folders Filled: 0

Mission 1:

Location: Scenario Design Forum
Task: Recruit allies and ban a spammer
Level: Cherub
Difficulty:
Status:
Complete, but needs to be easier.

After your promotion to Cherub, Paperfriend has noticed a spammer in the SD forum. He thinks this is the perfect opportunity to test his new partner in crime, and so he released you into the SD forum with the task of recruiting allies to help ban the spammer.

Unlocking the secret folder requires 101% completion.


Mission 2:

Location: The Halls Of Valhalla
Task: Undergo HOV training with Shanks & Botolf and then stamp out 5 Spam Lords before returning to correct an atrocity in the LPW.
Level: Cherub
Difficulty:
Status:
Koramei, I'm still waiting for the playtesting report.

Your first assignment is to get the 2,500th post in the LPW and become more well known. The LPW can be a safe haven for your allies to heal, or it could be infested with spammers that will try and destroy you. Spammers will wander around threads and damage your allies, and it is up to you to ban them. This mission will have a great wandering system.

Unlocking the secret folder required 116% completion.


Mission 3:

Location: General Discussions
Task: Scenario Designers have been captured and forced to analyse recorded games and play supremacy. The Hordes of GD are busy at a forum party, so you must solve as many puzzles as you can before they return to the 999 fanfare!
This mission shall see Shanks face his arch nemesis; the horse penetration guy!
Level: Cherub
Difficulty:
Status:
Awaiting playtesting reports.


Mission 4:

Location: Scenario Design
Task: Someone mysterious drugged the chocolate cake at the last FMT party, and Papaya ate the whole thing! Now Papaya has gone mad across SD, closing the 6th great and bountiful question thread (hosted by Yeebaagooon) and uploading naughty things to the DL section.
Now you have to buy forumers (with cookies) and undertake quests to get money in an attempt to bring Papaya out of his madness before the 4 corners of Scenario Design are destroyed.

Revolutionary new system where you target his stomach!
Level: Angel
Difficulty:
Status:
A few tiny fixes.


Mission 5:

Location: HG Main
Task: Complete Seraph Training.
Level: Angel
Difficulty:
Status:

It's time to become Seraph. But first Zen wants to find out how good you really are. You will have to learn how to ban people with lightning fast speed. You will also have to learn a few Seraph related tricks and of course, you will learn how to appear offline on MSN!


Mission 6:

Location: Unknown
Task: Unknown.
Level: Seraph *Satisfied smirk*
Difficulty: Unknown.
Status:

Oh, you'll love this one.


Characters (In a no particular order)
Yeebaagooon
The main character. At the start of the scenario, Yeebaagoon is an ambitious Cherub and it is up to you to successfully guide him through his time at AoMH.
Papaya
Papaya is the Seraph of AoMH at the start of the scenario. He bathes in a box of papayas in the boardroom.
Shanks 13
Starting off as a lowly Cherub, Shanks proves a valuable asset in the HOV mission, and becomes a dominant Seraph later in the scenario.
I Love Bananas
Like Shanks13, ILB starts as a Cherub and becomes a Seraph. He is quite a quiet Cherub, but when he becomes Seraph he sets some very challenging tasks.
Botolf
Also a Cherub at the start, Botolf if a hilarious character who makes moderating in the HOV just that little bit more pleasant.
Fwiffo
Who?
Paperfriend
The starting angel who welcomes Yeebaagoon to Cherubhood and sets the first mission. Paperfriend later defects to a lesser heaven.
Baske
Baske is good for brute force. His training in martial arts has made him a perfect first line in combat. Yet he suffers from some mental issues...
DragonQ
Starting off upon his promotion, DragonQ is assigned to show Yeebaagooon round GD. He is helpful, and helps Yeebaagooon during these troublesomely elite times.
Elrich
For now, Elrich maintains the Census and helps calm things down. He will also make his appearance as a new Cherub soon enough...
Out Reach
Usually the first character that can be recruited in the first mission, Out Reach is a very strong ally.
Mephiles
A strong unit with the added advantage of a ranged attack. Unfortunately, Mephiles never becomes a Cherub or else Yeebaagooon would be accused of bias.
nottud
A very strong SDer who can be recruited if he can be drawn away from his mapping skills.
xefus
The uncapitalised xefus is a menace to AoMH.
Banoffee
Has surprisingly good armour and is really useful as smurf fodder.
Firefax
The restoring power of the AOMI is useful, but you cannot have both Banoffee and Firefax together.
Elite Smurf
These nasty pieces of work are the result of mass smurfing. If an Elite Smurf is present, it usually indicates the presence of a Spam Lord in the current mission.
Alyssea
, enough said, yes?
Michael Jackson
How did he get onto a forum full of children? And why is this guy always sided with the forces of spam?
This battle may be nasty...
The Pervert From Casino Royale
No map is complete without him . His devastating weaponry is to be feared.
Zen
Divine Lord and Master of HeavenGames. Zen is definitely the most powerful character, while he has his Super-Admin Control Panel.
You'll see him if you mess up a mission or undertake Seraph Training.
Rick Roll
The evil singer who is bound to show up somewhere.
TBK145
The loyal Yeebaagooon worshipper who becomes a very valuable asset.
Nitro_Tractor
Former owner of the LPW, Nitro_Tractor is based in the HOV and exerts some influence on everyone else when he wants to stop spam.
503 Errors
Mystic, unknown and terrifying. Watch out as these guys start to fly round the HOV.
Ish0922
Remember that spam-bot from the HOV? He's back!
Beany
A very influential character, Beany has many weapons at his disposal and can corrupt almost anyone. His true allegiance has yet to be revealed.
Brightgalrs
Aloft his eyecandy stallion, Brightgalrs is one of the many scenario designers captured by GD. He is trapped behind rotary forcefields.
ArcticWind7
Roar.
Roxas and Alex
Both sporeians are trapped with only the limited edition creature creator for comfort. But when Alex is freed, he later becomes Seraph of Spore Heaven.
Aidsterramma
You seem to using the well known scum strategy of posting in this thread.
MagmaLord
Can you play Mafia? You're about to find out...
Bingo Little
Chained up in GD with only a rusty saw that cannot possibly saw through his chains...

I smell an obscure movie reference.
Epic Commander
The frequent HOVer who runs around making sure things are in order.
ninjapenguin
Not a very good ninja if the switch to release him is right behind him.
PrplPplEater
The grand modder is the first victim of GD's scheme you come across. He explains what has happened and sets up the storyline for Mission 3.
EmilyxX
If you're a mod, you'll understand this reference .
KMANGIANTKILLER
"I AM FULL OF DEMENTED ANGRY"
Sneaky Squirrel
A scenario designer who can only be freed by his friends.
MENOCAL
Shanks13's arch nemesis.

"Perma banned. Confirmed horse penetration." - Shanks13
HailToTheOboe
The trigger prodigy, who has been forced to analyse vanilla recorded games in GD.
Nacht Jager
The soon to be Cherub contemplates his fate in GD, trapped by a perplexing riddle.
pcgamer7070
what is your rate?
Khan&Steak
These guys lead the review team into combat against Papaya's naughty uploads. They are both very strong in combat.
i_r_n00b
Fear his uber rate. i_r_n00b is one of the deadliest people in GD and is to be avoided at all costs.
Captain Janeway
The toughest lady in Starfleet is around. Follow the 47s...
Death And Pain
A hero who puts an end to many horrors in GD. DAP is later made Cherub in the technical help forum.
Oscar
Eyecandy legend, Oscar is here! He resides in his eyecandy palace and can command the power of eyecandy.
Henrz
A chicken who spends most of the time pecking about in Yeebaagooon's back garden.
DragonBlood11
The former Question Thread crusader has now been reduced to a drug addict. He lies outside Yeebaagooon's house begging for food.
aZeusDude
A member of the review team who helps stop Papaya's pr0n upload in the DL section.
Anno Dominius
The loyal roman presides atop his Roman balcony where he can easily address his senators.
Lazy Warhero
The screenshot artist in mission 4, who needs protection from 503 errors.
James Hook
The omni-annoying eater of no hats presides in the chaos he creates in mission 4. He will later lodge an unban request that can either be graciously accepted, allowing the present James Hook we all know and love, or cruelly rejected by the vindictive Seraph-in-training; Yeebaagooon.
Vespacianus
The screenshot creator who dared defy Yeebaagooon now suffers his wrath in 3.1 surround sound and HD.
invent00r
Sped along by his godly triggers, invent00r is a very powerful warrior.
SwordOfValor
The legendary eyecandier complete with evil cauldron can be found in SD attempting various satanic eyecandy rituals.
Cheesewiz
HeavenGames forum ninja, with limitless access.
Crazed Ewok
Crazed is the FMT chair, charged with training Shanks13 in the arts of FMT.
Kester
The flambouyant Seraphs Director gives the player a hearty congratulations at the end of the scenario.
Socvazius
Ex-AoMHer Socvazius has now risen up to become one of the most powerful figures of HeavenGames.
GillB
Zen's right hand lady is a prominent and highly respected figure across HeavenGames. GillB is a member of the EXCO.
Jayhawk
Jayhawk commands all operations at HeavenGames. The friendly changer of titles jumps in at the end of the scenario with a surprising dialogue.


Other Characters:

There are a lot more, and some haven't been added. I update the above list almost as frequently as VG Cats.


There are more characters, but saying them would spoil the plot .

Please note that some of those screenshots seriously need updating!

More characters and locations will be posted as they are made. The HOV characters will be up when the second mission has been made.

Super Bonus Round

There will be several zipped folders included with the scenario that are password protected. Baske and I have filled them with goodies and you will have to complete a mission to 101% to get the password.

The final folder requires completion of all mission to 101%, and then you will be given a not so hard riddle to solve. If you fully complete the map and get this password, you will at last be able to look upon a real picture of me!

(Oh, and I'll be using TriggersToOne to stop you cheating !)

Testing

I will need some people to help me playtest this map, please post if you would like to test. You may only be allowed to test one mission, and I hope to release Mission 1 as a demo on its own. Playtesters will be expected to use a format similar to the review guidelines when feeding back. I expect at least 5 lines of evaluation in most of the points I specify. Thanks.

Playtesters (Key)
Have not been sent the scenario.
Awaiting Report.
Report is unacceptable and must be redone.
Report Complete.
Report complete with optional re-test.

Roxas, his heart was human, yet because of his status as a being his fate was sealed since he was born. How many times must humanity judge others like that as well without giving them a fair chance?

Thanks . Tartarian, do you want to test Mission 1 on its own or M2 aswell?

As dedication to the truth:

In mission 2 when you try to win Nitro's LPW, if you fail Roxas wins it.

As for the M2 finale, need I say more?




Need to update the Elrich screenshot. Baske has brought the HOV to life with stunning eye candy. I have to wear sunglasses when creating this map now.

I have to say this looks fantastic. The eyecandy is really impressive and the plot sounds great! There's a tendency to reduce quality when creating humorous scenarios but this looks to be better than anything released in a long while... good luck with it, can't wait

Indeed.

Looks great Yee. And with Baske helping with eyecandy you can't go wrong. Though I have no idea what it has to do with Spyro's arch nemesis.

I never asked for this.

It's just a name .

Thanks for the comments everyone. I'll try and get some playtesting rolling today.

I really want to tell you about the Mission 9 plot because it's the best and the funniest - but my spoiler senses say no.

@ rjs

TT, of course .
