Controller Usage

The unique controller designed for the Wii would be use to control the actions in the events.

E.g.

‘The mace throw’ - the player spins the avatar by spinning the controller in a circular motion and pressing a button to release the mace at the optimum point.

‘Bob sledge’ – the player controls the steering of the ‘sledge’ with the controller aiming to keep him on the course.

‘rowing’ – must recreate the action of rowing with the controller.

Game modes

Single player…

Story mode:

Plays through the story mode, competing in all events against computer AI opponents.

Quick play:

Choose an event and compete against AI opponents.

Survival mode:

Win events over and over with AI opponents getting progressively harder.


Time mode:

Win the events as fast as possible.


Multiplayer…

1 vs. 1:

Like quick play, choose an event and play 1 vs. 1.

Co-op mode:

Play as a team to win events for your ‘faction’.


ONLINE…

Same modes as in multiplayer.


Leader bored table:

Compete against people around the world in a ranking table. Single player and team based ranking tables.

Possible events

Lance vaulting:

Like pole vaulting but with a lance and instead of a bar to clear there would be a ferocious monster that jumps to a certain height and bites you if you’re to low. Land in a pool of snot rather than a mat.

The mace throw:

Like the hammer throw but with a large spiked mace. The player must spin around and hurl the mace into the pit of the damned (bodiless people that are joined together by their skin, just arms and faces are seen. Lots of groaning). Furthest wins.

Steeple chase:

A play on the name. This event Arthur must chase a steeple that has come to life. Needs to catch it before the end of the course (some form of obstacle course).

Shot put:

Throw a skull not a shot. Lands in some snotty area. Furthest wins.


Bob sledge:

Sat on a shield and instead of snow its molten ash. Must complete the course the quickest.

Long jump:

Clear a pool of flesh eating monsters. Land in snot at the end.


Weight lifting:

Different weight body parts (monster parts – none human) must be lifted above the head and held for 3 seconds.


Archery:

Shoot at targets (stretched out on skin).




Rowing:

Row across the sea of lost souls the fastest.


















Game idea

A spin on the old Ghost n’ Goblins game.

Satan has kidnapped Guinevere and king Arthur is trying to save her, but this time Satan challenges Arthur to a competition. Arthur must compete in Satan’s ‘Hellympic Games’. Like the regular Olympics, Arthur must compete against rivals from or countries (or dimensions being ghosts n’ goblins) For the right to win Guinevere.

The events, similar to regular Olympic events would obviously take on a Satanic twist.
