And now, ladies and gentlemen, presenting my latest RPM project/crazy idea...
RPM HEROES!
StoryRPM's in big trouble! The villainous vampire Roa has taken over with his undead army - the land has been plunged into darkness and decay, and his infernal tower has been built in what used to be RPM City. He's now looking for the seven Yashichi, which could give him the power to rule the entire universe!
A number of RPM's denizens have stepped up to fight Roa, not about to let their beloved homeworld become a haven for his diabolical empire. But arguments arose over how to defeat Roa once and for all. From these differences in opinion, the people have divided themselves into teams of three.
Now it's a competition to save the day! Everyone's ready to save RPM, but who will win in the end?
GameplayFor all intents and purposes, the game is a platforming game. Players control their character(s) in a three-dimensional environment, and the aim of each stage is, generally, to reach the goal at the end; however, different teams have different routes to take, methods of reaching the goal and, in some cases, entirely different mission objectives.
The game operates with team-based play in mind. The player selects one of the teams (see the "Characters" section below for more detailed information on them), each of which has three members. The character "leading" can be changed at will, and the player must take advantage of each character's individual skills to overcome obstacles and solve puzzles. The members are based on three seperate "classes": Speed, Flight and Power.
Speed characters are designed with running and moving ahead in mind; considered the "default" class (but by no means the most important), they excel at missions that require getting to the goal, competing against a time limit or crossing obstacle-laden courses; naturally the fastest class, but also fairly weak, they rely on speeding past enemies rather than tackling them head-on.
Flight characters are designed with exploration in mind; they excel at missions that require finding something or areas that have lots of falls and platforms; not very slow or strong, but they have the best jumping ability, and are great for platforming sections that require skillful jumps.
Power characters are designed with combat in mind; they excel at missions that require defeating groups of enemies or bosses; by far the strongest class, they aren't very fast or good at jumping, but they can easily make short work of opponents and heavy obstacles in the way.
Players can also enter Special Stages by finding one of the hidden warp rings. In the Special Stages, the player must control their character as they run along a half-pipe track, collecting enough Zenny - but avoiding harmful bombs - to win one of the seven Yashichi. Collect all seven Yashichi to unlock the "true" ending!
Overall, the game is a glaring spoof/parody of/homage to Sonic Heroes. Those of you that don't like the game for whatever reason...well, remember that this is just a bit of fun! And since it isn't a proper game, you can imagine it without the voice-acting or poor controls and whatnot.
