Game Details

[admin]

Here is some details on the game.
As I don't want it to get too complicated.
I want it simple but fun.
So the point of the game is to get money, education, job, and body.
For steroids, there is:

Winstrol (Stanozolol) - Improves body after 3 weeks, but each week after 6 weeks, there is a 35% chance they have liver or kidney problems. They will get a message like, "You've been on stanozolol too long, you had to go to the hospital because of kidney pain... you should have known better". You lose 1/4 of your week for 4 weeks recovering from the pain.

Sust 250 (Testosterone Blend) - Gains start at week 5, and can be taken for 10 weeks. From week 5 on, there's a 10% chance you get roid rage. Message will be something like, "You went to the club with some friends, and *pretended* to have 'roid rage'. You tried to punch your way through a stone wall. You will not be able to workout for 3 weeks."
After 13 weeks of straight tesosterone use, you get a warning, you get a little less time that week, and it says, "You slept in, your body is starting to get tired from the long term steroid use". Each week after that, they get less and less time until they stop it.
Also after week 2, I want their to be a 10% chance you get this message, "Your nipples itch this morning... you wonder why..." And they must take
Nolvadex (tamoxifen citrate), for two weeks straight. If they take it the first week, the next week will say, "Your nipples seem to still itch a little, though it feels as though it is almost gone". Then if they take it the second week, it will say, "Your nipples no longer itch, you feel good".
If they don't take it after the first week, they get this, "Your nipples itch even more, and there is a lump under one of them. You spent half the week trying to see a doctor. You finally got in, and he slapped you for not knowing about Nolvadex."
If they don't take it after that, they get "You spent two weeks in the hosipital getting your gynecomastia (bitch tits!) removed. You can't work out for two more weeks, you feel your body deteriorating." They lose 1/3 of their body attribute.
Anavar (oxandrolone) - Most expensive of the bunch, can be taken up to 12 weeks. Minimal gains, but little chance of side effects. After 12 weeks of straight usage, they get this message "12 weeks of anavar... you wonder how much longer you should stay on it." After the 12 weeks, you have a 10% chance of kidney/liver problems, and it goes up 10% each eek after that until they have problems. Same results as stanozolol. Gains start at 6 weeks for this.
Nolvadex (tamoxifen citrate) - See above
Clomid (Clomiphene Citrate) - This must be taken one to two weeks after they stop taking steroids. After the first week off steroids, they get this message, "You can tell your body is enjoying the time off anabolic steroids... you just hope your testosterone production kicks in again...". That's the hint to take clomid.
If they do not take steroids, their body does not improve. After three weeks they get this message, "Your body is not improving... perhaps you need something to get your testosterone producing again..."
If they don't take the clomid still, every three weeks, they get "Your body is still not improving... take something!!!". Until they take clomiphene for one week.

If they have any drinks while taking steroids, each drink they have that week gives them a 8% chance of liver problems. So 10 drinks will give them 80% something happens. It'll just take half their time away for that week. "You lose half your time this week because of kidney/liver pain. Drinking while on anabolic steroids, stupid, stupid stupid..."

What do you guys think?
I didn't really plan it out, I basically just typed it as I thought it to the programmer. I know some of it is unrealistic, but I had to keep it as simple as possible, and made up the numbers as I went.
Let me know what you guys think.
Some of it will need to be changed.
Adding some things would be great, as i want the steroid thing to be a big part of it.

Wow...Sounds like you put a hell of a lot of thought in to this...So, I had a few ?'s first off:

1) Is this an ongoing sort of lengthy thing for members to play? Something that will take them weeks to complete? Or is this a one time game and then they start fresh when they log on again?

2) Is it an ongoing competition between the members? Like the member with the highest score wins?

3) What's the interface going to be like? Role playing, strategic, first person?

The design is going to be very basic design.
Going to be like this kinda:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jones_in_the_Fast_Lane
I was thinking about an on going thing, but I'm not sure.
I think this one will be just a small game to download and play.
The game in the link had a computer player you could play against, or you could play solo, or against another person.

I think if this goes well, an ongoing one would be a good idea. One that keeps people coming back every day. I know there was a text based bodybuilder one before, but it went down. It was pretty fun, but one obstacle would be that say I joined 3 months ago, and you joined today, I would be more advance. Yes you would have many others on your level of play, but you still won't be the 'top dog' or the first to the top.

This will cost around $2,000 and is very basic, just so you get an idea of the costs. A more graphical based one, with more features would be much more expensive. Example, one using 3d models like "the sims" would be over $10,000 to make.... which isn't out of the question if this first one turns out well. This one is just something fun that hopefully people like, and it brings people to the site to play it.

Sounds great....I like the idea and think it will work well AND will educate members on proper usage...

Hmmm, maybe something like using Tren and Deca together for a long period of time will cause lactating nipples...

Or staying on too long will cause high cholesterol levels which could lead to a heart attack...

Or you go to the doctor for a medical, and depending on your blood values are, you get points and money...

More money can allow you to buy supplements and ancillaries...For instance you could go to a shop section and buy Milk Thistle, Vitamin C, Calcium, ALA and these could reduce sides and give you better results at a medical...

I'm sure I'll think of more over nite...

Good idea.
See, what's hard is, everything has to have a value, to some equation.
Example.
Working out improves your body by x number.
Taking protein helps by improving it by x number.
Creatine same thing.
Then each steroid, same thing.
So it has to be tested and calculated so one thing isn't overpowering another, or there isn't an easy way to win one part of the game.

I guess if we did milk thistle and that, we could make the chance of having side effects cut in half.
Doctor check up is a good idea too.
But I need ways to make it so you aren't healthy.
See there are food options as well, so I could always add in a health aspect as well, not just 'body' aspect.
But all these things have values. And many need to have negative effects, or a high price, or someone will just buy everything and use everything at the same time. There has to be some time of happy median.
