Yes. Arkadel is the hellish island of the medieval Province, Pellsdoyl. You start as an adventurer who willingly accepts that he/she is ready for the outside world, and is booted out by his/her mother, given a branch as a weapon and sown armor. You start in the town of "Allesnatwhel".
It's going to be an RPG dungeon crawler with a twist. While PvE is the main thing of an RPG, PvE is mixed with PvP, meaning while outside of towns players can kill you.
There will be random trees that show up that you can knock down with your weapon (or the axe), and you will get the most useful item, logs.
You can make boards to make weapons, furniture, and even silly gag items like board stuck in a board.
So let's get started on some ideas I've had (With the help of madmitten and Edman2299K)
The weapon classes are Sharp, Blunt, Ranged and Hand.
Sharp: Sword, Dagger, Spear and Axe.
Blunt: Mace, Hammer and Staff
Ranged: Bows, Muskets or Crossbows.
Hand: No weapon equipped, Gloves or claws.
Ideas so far:
Armor!
Mining ore to sell for money.
Building a house and furniture.
Falling trees that fall and kill you randomly.
Killer squirrels, bunnies, bears, turtles, fish and lions.
Caves and treasure chests containing good items for selling.
Clothes. Generally useless but just for looks.
Streaking. Taking off all armor and clothes.
Hats. Useless, but for show. Rare and cool looking.
Shoes for jumping and climbing. Walls that can be climbed can be climbed by equipping shoes in your trinket slot. Same goes for jumping. Even a rise of one inch can prove to be an obstacle!
Horses and other mounts.
Catching wood on fire.
Making bombs to open up pathways and hurt enemies.
\me command (Like "/me teabags your body" = Frank teabags your body)
Story:
In Arkadel, life was peaceful, save a few bandits or bear maulings. Then an evil necromancer built a giant tower with magic and summoned powerful beings to do what he wills them to. He commanded them to steal the souls of six powerful kings so he could rule Arkadel with an iron fist.
Sixteen years later, the kings are dead, and all of Arkadel is covered with a dense shadow. The inhabitants have grown depressed or murderous. Fish are mutating around the shores, bears becoming more violent, trees falling on people more often! You take control of an adventurer who just wants to make some coin and kill stuff regardless of what it is.
This is Arkadel.
So I need help, too! I can't do this entirely myself, so I need some people to help.
Two extra programmers who are pretty good at BYOND.
As many people as possible on making sprites.
If BYOND supports music and sounds, somebody who can make music and sounds.
Ideas. I need as many ideas as possible!
Also, you're possibly thinking "Why all these ideas but nothing coded?!" I
just thought up this idea a few hours ago. I want to make sure I know what I'm doing before I do anything at all.
And those who do help make this, you will get a special hat once the game is done <3
So discuss Dark tales of Arkadel, and please help me!

I want this to be a fun game for people to play, and I want to make a game.
It's always been my dream to make an MMORPG
