the town will just buttfuck the mafia with all those roles lmao

[Zeldamaster12]

Yeah man, there are WAY too many roles in the Town compared to the Mafia. I would recommend these following things:

1. Just include Townies, it makes it a lot more balanced. I know that this is the gimmick of the game, but still, the Town is really OP compared to the Mafia.
2. Heavily buff the Mafia somehow, or nerf a lot of the Town's roles.
3. Include a couple more Mafia members.
4. Remove some of the Town.

[Sevennights]

Mafia and the third party needs to extremly buffed up times 500x
Or town could be decreased, and third part and mafia could have numbers increased.

Like I said, it was a WIP. :)

Changelog so far:
Removed Wraith from the Mafia
Removed Survivor and Operator from the Town
Added Assassin to the Mafia
Added a footnote to the Baker/Chef/Hunter
Doctor can no longer self heal
Bodyguard can no longer be saved by the Doctor

At this point, I'm afraid the Mafia may have too much kill potential. I'll do some more thinking about it.
(Currently, if everyone's abilities work, then 5 players could potentially die on night 1, 2 from the mafia, 1 from the vigi, and 2 from the saboteur)
hm.

Nien, your game is based off of fire emblem: mystery of the emblem ain't it?

its based on the FE games on the gba, i just thought mystery of the emblem was the better title

also pls tell me nobody else's sprites for the blues are like mega large, i ripped them from this page and they looked normal when i posted them http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/List_o ... red_Stones

[Shadow Yoshi]

PLEASE FIX THOSE IMAGES AAHHHH

[MistakesWereMade]

oh gosh wHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED

i'll just fix them tomorrow since i have to do other shit atm

[Sevennights]

Well the game looks pretty good and i believe it is well balanced. Could have a tweaks and the images are not that big. They are large as hell
I would want to play it in the future.
I just feel like town needs a sheriff role but the town is quite powerful actually...

[MistakesWereMade]

im not even sure whats happening, some images were normalized for a bit, but when i refreshed the page later they got fucked again.

happened on snow's end too

i probably have to upload those things myseLF UHG

M#: (Not) Any Colour You Like
20 Players

Mafia Aligned:
-Stalker - Can visit a user and fully learn their role.
-Saboteur - Can visit a user and will rig the user's vest or gun to malfunction
-Fabricator - Can give a user a fake Vest or Gun
-Paralyzer - Can choose to cancel any lynch for a day. Only can be used once.

Town Aligned:
-Sheriff
-Nurse - Same thing as Doctor
-Vigilante - Loses power for one night they kill a town aligned user.
-Gunsmith - Can give a user a Gun
-Blacksmith - Can give a user a bulletproof Vest
-Dreamer - Has a dream about 1 innocent user or 3 users: One is town, one is cult, one is mafia.
-Penguin - Tells a user a random message about a random user.
-Villager x5

Third Party:
-Creepy Girl - Gives a user a doll. If that user doesn't give the doll by the end of the next phase, they die. If a user dies by a doll, the creepy girl hands one out again.

Cult:
-Warlock- - Picks a user each night. If the warlock choosesusers who die the next phase twice, the cult wins
-Lyncher - Is chosen one user at the beginning of the game. If that user is lynched, the cult wins
-Fool -Cult wins if lynched by end of phase (not by insta or knife in the box).

Info:
-The cult not drag the game along, but, basically being the 'third party' past the creepy girl, they don't win with the mafia or village.
-Creepy Girl default wins with either remaining side.
-When a user acquires a doll, they pm the host and the cycle continues.
-If a player receives a gun, they can shoot and kill someone during the day with the risk of being exposed. If given a gun by Fabricator, the gun might explode and kill them, and the Saboteur visit will cause the gun to explode on them.
-If a player is given a vest, they can survive one shot before the vest wears off. Vest given by fabricator or rigged by saboteur will not protect, however.



Not sure how crazy this game is. ._.

[Danny]

You should probably mention how somebody "gives" the doll to another person, you didn't specify that so I would assume you just mean to send a PM to the host saying you give somebody a doll.

[HeroOfRhyme]

I've always wanted to be a creepy girl! :O

[Zeldamaster12]

Lots of roles, TNT, but it looks really good still yet. I'd love to play that one.

[TLtimelord]

I won't plan on hosting it if it actually wins a game.

By the way, I edited wording for cult member descriptions and also added a couple extra points.

[Zeldamaster12]

But TNT, you're like the best host ever :c

[TLtimelord]

But TNT, you're like the best host ever :c

Idk I tend to talk to Mystogan.

Meh, I might sign up, but others deserve to host a game at least once before I'd host 3 times.
