Galagan's Island NEEDS YOUR HELP!!
After Boss Battles, the players have the choice to go into the pilots ship and play a mini game on his personal game console.
For this sequence, we are adding monologue, where the pilot will communicate with the players of Galagan's Island.
This, is where we want your help...not help really...but your participation.
We want you to tell us what you'd like him to say.
I wrote a bunch of lines for this sequence, but after a lot of consideration, I thought this would be a much more fun way to interact with all of you....and give you the opportunity to contribute to the game as well.
We are adding dialogue when the player enters the ship until the game console turns on.
We want the pilot to have words with the players directly.
We are looking for funny things he can say to all of you that have been controlling him.
We do need to keep this at least PG-13 rated.
BTW...the console in his ship is called a SpaceStation.
Oh....and the best lines that we choose to put in the game....well....there will be prizes.
So help us interact with all of you...and help our pilot do the same.
Happy Gaming and Good Luck!
