That's the problem with RPGs… You may think you have the ULTIMATE WEAPON, but hit the BIG BAD ULTRAGODMODE BOSS with it and he just shrugs it off before flicking you for massive damage…
Now I'm thinking that Magiversity could be a Shoot 'em Up with RPG elements (get a high enough score and you could put points into your shooting abilities)…
Random Violence would probably be a god game, where you tantralize the stickmen at will, let random objects fall on their heads, let them be chopped up by ninjas or let them die due to natural disasters. Could be for WiiWare, would work greatly with the motion-controls.
I don't know if Air Raid Robertson would make a good videogame. A lot of time is spent on my characters standing around and yelling at each other.
But, what the hell. I'd make it a side-scrolling beat 'em up like Final Fight or Turtles in Time. Just about every goddamn thing in the history of creation was adapted into a side scrolling beat 'em up from 1987-1995. I'm sure Air Raid Robertson will fit right in between River City Ransom and Cadillacs & Dinosaurs.

That's why only the BIG BAD ULTRAGODMODE BOSS is allowed to cast OzoneOcean ;)

I'm thinking now that Pinky TA would be more like the Mass Effect games- Less like the RPG side and more like the RPG-interactive movie side of that series. So you get to do fighting, mecha piloting, lots of talking to characters and getting more of the story etc. I could really make that work ^___^
I'm in a media class and one of my courses is designing and creating a computer game together with a team of about 30 classmates. the chances that my comic gets picked to make the story is about 50% now. There is a big chance that No Heroes will be a game in two months! Yay!
The other choice is about ninja monkeys though, so I bet that'll get picked…
A Loonatic's Tale would be an action RPG most likely. Crossbones, though, would totally be like Dragon's Lair where you have to hit the right keys at the right time or die a horrible death.
My comic, 'The Dragon Fists of Smorty Smythe' would be a platform humor/adventure in the vein of 'Jak & Daxter' or 'Ratchet & Clank' as that the character would go on adventures that fulfilled a story arc. He would be aided and advised by the supporting cast as to what to do. The major villains in my stories would be the bosses and the levels would alternate between mission solving search & find-and-battle-a few-minions-levels to scrolling 'beat'em ups' like the old TMNT games.
Mainly because my main character is a Martial Artist. And whats the point of having a Martial Artist as the main character without levels of full-out 'knock'em downs.'?
I think Lavender Legend would be a dating sim that has a fighting game spin-off for no real reason. Emerald Winter is pretty obvious as an epic turn-based RPG with really long cut-scenes.
For 'Professor Procto' I'm probably gonna go with a side scrolling platformer but with strange mini games between 'levels'. Could lend itself to an old school point and click too though.
It would be primarily a fighting game in the style of Dead Or Alive,but with a bunch of minigames like beach volleyball,cart racing,target shooting,mall running,battle tennis,guitar playing,club dancing,zombie killing…
Once I get around to actually making the comic, I suppose METER would be an MMORPG. Magic, hunting monsters, wars between clans/cities, yadda yadda. And the game would crash at climatic points.
Well, I'll only say my two comics that I am/have been working on.
Ryu's Krew: I imagine it would be like, a darkly styled cel-shaded action adventure epic. Possibly spanning over two discs (or in a series of games). And like that game, XII, it would have sound effects for everything, and it would be heavily inspired by the comic itself. The gameplay would be somewhat linear, for the most part. Just because I don't want it to have a different ending (I imagine it would be made by the time it was done or something) or anything like that. However, you could make some choices, such as what weapon you use, attacks you use, the way you enter a certain place (some stealth elements you'll need to use) and you could probably change your character on the spot (or at certain places) between the main 3. I've given this some thought before ;P
Charles & Viktor: This one would be hard to turn into a game, mostly because it doesn't make sense, and there's no big plot. Only thing I could really see happening is either like, minigames (I'll explain what I mean), or episodic adventures. I'd probably end up doing the minigames thing, but I mean there'd be multiple adventures in each game, like the first 5 comics or so would be in the first game. Something like that. But it would be a lot like the Ryu's Krew game, just, in color. With lots of bright, pretty colors.
I imagine Vampire Phantasm with Mass Effect 2/Vampire Masquerade type interactions…and maybe God of War/Devil May Cry style of battles? Except if you were to play Jack you'd have more stealth options. Haha, Orlock would be the final boss but you'd come across him from time to time, and you'd have to smash buttons to fight off his mental attacks. He'd be annoying like that. XD
Cwen's Quest could be a number of things I imagine. Maybe something similar to what I had in mind for a VP game above, or it could be an Evil Zone-ish fighting game with lots of interaction involved (Ooh, Riddly/Cwen tag team!) Though I think the best idea would be a sort of updated version of an old school adventure game mixed with battles, and being able to order other characters to use certain attacks would be nice too.
