SandboxRonpa: Cast reveal + Ideas

Greetings everyone!

In this thread I will start to reveal the SandboxRonpa cast. It will have a total of 18 students, 16 of them from that thread, 2 others made up by myself.

Those who played DanganRonpa would probably be a bit confused by the fact that it isnt 16 characters. All I can say for now is that it will be explained soon enough.

I'll reveal 2-3 characters a day.

Moving on to more important things:

How will this work?

I have a few options, and while I'm inclined to one over the others, I'd like to see what people think, so feel free to comment and vote in a poll I'll link at the bottom of the OP.

Option A

FanFiction: Easily the simplest both for me to work on and for you to read. I should be able to update the story more often with this, but it is also the less satisfying option. Also take in mind that while I am, imo, pretty good to come up with a plot, I'm not that much of a good writer. It'd be mostly script-based.

Option B

Videos with RPG Maker: Some of you may remember my Tales of Zombies thread ( https://epicmafia.com/topic/76615?page=1 ) in which I basically did a story and then used RPG Maker to make some videos based on them. I could also do this with SandboxRonpa. Make videos of about 10 mins every month or so. This would make things more visual and would give a better experience than the Option A imo. It would, however, be slower, obviously.

Option C

An actual RPG Maker Game: This is the option that would take the most time, effort and would have the slower updates. It is however the most satisfying experience. Let's be clear, I will NOT be able to replicate the actual DanganRonpa game, but I can mimic some of the mechanics and come up with some others. This would take a lot of time, and I may need help from people willing to work on it with me, but I think it would be pretty neat. Also, in case of going for this, the game would still be released in an episodic way, of about the same lenght as a danganronpa chapter each.

Let's be clear on something else. It doesn't matter which option I go for. This is a pretty ambitious project and it is possible that it will end up abandoned after a while, so I don't want you guys using the logic of "if he makes a game he will never finish it". I'd just rather know what you guys would enjoy the most.

A game would be able to make the experience better, with decision you would be able to make as a player that would affect the story. While the other two options, would be a communal vote in which the majority wins.

Feel free to ask me questions on any of this if i wasnt clear enough

First Character reveal!

Actually 3 characters options but we will see which one becomes the canon one!


Name: ???
Gender: Male
Title: Ultimate Soccer Player





OR

Name: ???
Gender: Female
Title: Ultimate Volley Player






OR

Name: ???
Gender: Gender neutral/Non binary
Title: Ultimate Handball Player









First, I know the two art styles don't really match each other, but the generators have different resources obviously.


Second, this character would be our protagonist. If we end up with Option A or B, we will have a voting and the majority will be the one we go for. If we go for Option C, every player would be able to pick the one that most fits them. Same with their name.



Regardless, only one of these 3 characters will exist in the same universe.
