Hello!
I'm working with a group of people on a game inspired by Danganronpa series.
I'll try to compare my project to the mentioned series - please, tell me if it's still legal.
Danganronpa:
- 16 students wake up in the school building
- they are forced to kill each other by the stuffed bear.
- every student has special abilities called “ultimate talent”, which makes them the best in what they do.
- they are being recorded and transmitted to all people around the world by tv
- there was a big catastrophe in the outside world, almost everyone died
- the mastermind is one of them
- there is one main protagonist and player controls him
- when the murder takes place, students have to make an investigation
- they have to vote for the right culprit
- if they vote wrong, everyone is dead
- if they vote right, only the killer is dead
- despair as the main game motive
My project:
- 9 people of different age wake up in the theatre building, another 9 people wake up in a different place, 1 detective man is trying to solve their kidnapping case from outside
- they are all (besides of detective) forced to kill each other by stuffed dove & crow
- everyone is really good at what they do, but they won't be assigned to one role - they would be able to choose one of them
- they are being recorded and transmitted on a special website
- the outside world is normal
- the mastermind is one of them
- there are 3 protagonists, the player controls all of them
- when the murder takes place, students have to make an investigation
- one of them have to choose the right culprit
- if he chooses the wrong one, the culprit can leave
- if he chooses right, the culprit is dead
- despair as the main game motive
Also:
- the almost identical art style
Thank you!
