Looking for a title for a game

OoMMMoO · 2000-10-18T21:26:09

Me and run_the_shadows are working on a game and we need a title for it. Ive gave a description of the game on an earlier post but will post it again on this message. I was thinking something like Destitude for the title. Please give me some ideas and we will give you credit for the title of the game. We are working on a sidescrolling game with a metroid type exploration to it. The storyline is about a girl, raised by her uncle, who seeks revenge on a cult of vampires who killed her uncle. As she gets farther to killing the last cult leader she realizes her uncle wasnt the man that she thought he was, and realizes he was actually part of the cult. We want the game to span over many areas we are planning on a desert area, forest area, antieant ruins area, your basic castle, which will all have kind of a dark gothic theme, I have art for the game I will post up later. (Im programmer/artist) We want the game to have a heavy rpg feel, so the player can equip many swords, cross bows, ax''s ect. The enemies will consist of demon women with wings to your basic werewolves.We want to have a good mix of techno and symphony music with the game. We could use some support/tips/ideas thanks alot Brendon Glanzer EchoSteel©

You can use a cool name if you call the game after the cult (like the two circle names I mentioned before).

It seems to me that this whole thread could be summed up in a rather concise form:

               #define NUM_WORDS 12char szWords[NUM_WORDS][10] = {"Darkness", "Dark", "Blood",                               "Forbidden", "Lore", "Night",                               "Vampire", "Soul", "Shadows",                               "Circle", "Ancients", "Children"};char szGameTitle[30];srand(GetTickCount());sprintf(szGameTitle, "%s of %s", szWords[rand() % NUM_WORDS],                                 szWords[rand() % NUM_WORDS]);

Hehe... yes, I'm aware this will generate names like "Darkness of Forbidden" but I thought I'd post it anyway.

You just found out how my brain works.

But the titles were good (most of them anyway).
