Solid Sack: The Backstory ?

Archive: 23 posts


Hi guys, and welcome to the land of oppo-

Waitwut? Anyway, I just wanted to let you guys know about a series of levels I'm working on. It's based on Solid Sack before he gained his license to thrill... I don't know if anyone here has ever read The "Young Bond" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Bond) trilogy but it's going to be like that.

I'm currently working on the first part of the series, where SS (Solid Sack) is still in the 'training phase'. Along the way to your ultimate goal of the sacred scoreboard there will be speech bubbles letting you in on Solid's past and whatnot.

As the levels progress you'll climb higher and higher in the ranks, until you recieve your license... I know you guys are probably thinking "Uh... wut?" but trust me, I have some good ideas for the levels

Thanks for reading

Update: I begun work on the first level a while ago and I have to say, even though I've hardly done anything, I'm quite happy with it so far because I've tried my hardest to make everything run smoothly.

Don't expect to see this level published anytime soon, I'm taking it slowwwlyy...

It sounds like the beggining on Casino Royale.... Sort of.
:/
But it's an awesome idea.

Haha, it does indeed sound like the beginning of Casino Royale... Thanks for the comment by the way

Oh yeah - just a quick question for anyone BOTHERED enough to actually view this thread and comment, do you think I should force the player to hear about his past, should I make it optional OR should I make it a bonus for people who explore?

Another idea I had was after you finish the level, I give the person a special sticker to unlock all the secrets... On the other hand, I could just scrap the idea completely.

Sooo... whaddya guys think?

I'm bothered to view your thread! What do you mean "the player to hear about his past"? Isn't the series your doing, like, at the beginning of Solid Sack's license to thrill adventure? So what past is there to tell?
The idea about unlocking secrets at the end was brilliant though....

It's before he gained his license to thrill... I was just thinking the "past" could be when he was a little kid and stuff... Unless I make him born a secret agent. Oh yeah, the story is like a tiny bit after he begins training to gain his license...

Thanks for caring! <3

Well you should create the past into little bits and show it to me and a few other people and we shall approve or dissaprove...

Um okay, but I haven't even started yet. I'll probably forget about it, I don't think it's worth the hassle...2009-01-10 14:57:00

Quite- wait, is Solid Sack just going to be Solid Snake, right?

If so... this is going BEFORE Outer Heaven, of course, am I correct?

If so, Big Boss needs to be SS's commander and communicate with him via radio, unless you want to feel my wrath.

And then I would assume it's after Snake's stint in the Gulf War...

... Just don't mess it up, or I'll burn the entire hotel down just to kill you :/.

I'll take over if you give up.... It sounds like a really good storyline and it has to be done...

...*gulp*

Yes, Solid Sack is supposed to be like Solid Snake... I just thought changing the name would spice things up a bit...

By the way, it's not following the actual MGS plot at all. Why? Think of people comparing my story-telling skills to Hideo Kojima. I thought so...

*edit*

...What? I'm not cancelling the whole project - just the "past" thing : And that's a maybe.

So Solid Sack has nothing to do with Solid Snake and his story by Kojima?

No, it does... vaguely. eg. Otacon is gonna be contacting you through the codec and stuff, but it's not gonna be exactly like MGS.2009-01-10 15:07:00

Haha, thanks ryan... Why are you getting your PS3 taken away? I sent mine off to Sony a while ago because it kept scratching any disc I put in...

Anyway, I'd like to hear everyone else's thoughts guys!

Thanks man I just hope I get it finished soon... I have a habit of taking ages to finish anything I do. I just want to make everything as detailed and polished as possible before I move on...2009-01-13 10:53:00

UPDATE:

- Added quite a bit to my level including a transition to a VR Training Room (don't sigh, I'm hoping to incorparate the Paintinator decently and not overuse it).

- I'd just like to say a big thank you to Voltiare for un-intentially inspiring me to continue on the level. I kinda hit a dead end, but after playing H.A.T.E_2 I suddenly gained a lot of ideas including an almost direct homage to it involving dialogue...

- My level broke (shock bang horror) and I felt like crying. But I just added extra invisible Dark Matter to the platforms and everything turned out fine. Turns out DM isn't as strong as I thought...

So, yeah. I hope the end product turns out good and all of you enjoy it!
