Okay, so the MB explains how six friends end up in a car crash, and they all start dreaming. They all end up in an arena (With obersevers flying to give it that dream feeling...) and some mysterious voice tells them that they all must fight to escape the dream world. Now, these six friends don't want to fight eachother, but tensions are high on whos fault the car crash is, as they all remember that.
The Arena
Anyway, There are four arenas that they will fight in, and every ten minutes it switches randomly (After I figure out how to do a random trigger) to another arena. Each arena has a special thing, and each arena can change in small details...
Weapons
In the game, weapons can be dropped and picked up, allowing people to thin which weapon is best for the situation. Also, since it takes place in a dream, there will be spells, which I am still deciding which ones! As for health with weapons, I have some small ideas on how to do weapon switching and health, but for the most part they all suck! One is everytime a player gets close to another, it decreases their gas, and when they pick up a new weapon, that is what their health is set to! If you have ideas, please help me here!
Upgrades
There are no upgrades in the game, just so it stays even at all times
Respawning and Difficulties
Everyone gets a certain amount of lives, set at the begining of the games! As for difficulties, I might allow players to put their life at certain levels to increase difficulty, like some players may want 100% (Easy), while others want 75%(Medium) or 50%(Hard) as the starting health!
Other random things...
Well, it is a dream, and I just want it to be unrealistic with random things falling from the sky that could heal or hurt your character, depending on how you take it! Everyone will get a warning first, ofcourse! A blue explosion is the first sign, then a second later, it will explode! It will give a big enough warning!I am still deciding on other random things, so if you have idea's, please tell!

ยป Moved to Map Showcase & StarEdit
A map idea isn't really a "concept", it's something created for a single map. A Concept would be on a much larger scale.
On the other hand, this sounds like it should be a cool map. Hopefully you can make this map "dream" come true.

okay, I was thinking on the life thing, and I think this is how that's going to work. First off, people have 2 different Life things, the real world and the spirit world. The spirit world is vespaying gas. Anyway, a person's spirit health is effected by people walking to close and "entangling" eachothers spirits. It also can be effected by spells and by missles, which are all made to hurt your spirit only.
When you change weapons in the game, your spirit world life is what your real world health becomes.
If either dies, you lose. However, since spirit world is not effected by attacks made in the real world (IE: Firing a gun), it only hurts the real world side. Also, the healing spell cures both worlds....but bases it's healing on the spirit world counterpart
Am I making any sense?

Story couldve been much better than whats up there (fighting to escape a dream world? Bleh~)
As for the random arena thing, you could sorta go binary sort with two switches. Quick examples:
+Switch 1 is clear (0)
+Switch 2 is clear (0)
- Set switch 3 (arena 1)
+Switch 1 is clear (0)
+Switch 2 is set (1)
- Set switch 4 (arena 2)
+Switch 1 is set (1)
+Switch 2 is clear (0)
- Set switch 5 (arena 3)
+Switch 1 is set (1)
+Switch 2 is set (1)
- Set switch 6 (arena 4)
You get the idea. Might have to do a little extra triggers though.

The game's not suppost to have a very good story, but fun gameplay! Besides, who wouldn't want to kill their friends in a dream....Isn't there something where if you die in a dream you die in real life?

You watch the Matrix alot?
I've been shot, drowned, suffocated, decapitated, burned and impaled, among other things in my dreams. I don't think I died in real life...yet.
