MURDERGAME INTEREST CHECK!
What exactly is Magical Girl Raising Project?
- It's a mobile game where one out of ten thousand players get to become a real magical girl, pon! And you, lucky player, are one of the few that are chosen to become one, pon!
Okay, but who are you?
- My name is Fav, and I am the current messenger for Magical Girl Raising Project!
Magical girl? But what if I'm not a girl?
- Don't worry, pon! With the new update to the game, anybody can join, regardless and their appearance won't have to be changed a bit! The administration just simply thinks that it would be better to keep the original title, since "Magical Person Raising Project" sounds weird, don't you think?
What's this magic business about?
- You see, now that you've become a part of the project, you now have powers, pon. These powers are currently limited to having your physical abilities enhanced, due to the amount of mana it takes from Town A being really limited, pon! And because of that, any previous powers you might have had are completely gone! Now, as a magical entity, it's your duty to do good deeds and collect Magical Candies!
...Magical Candies?
- Yep, that's right, pon. These Magical Candies are both your ticket back home as well as your way to survival. You start off with 500 Magical Candies, so please make sure to not use them all up at the start! Once a week, you may use your Magical Candies to buy one of five special limited, one of a kind items. Of course, I will give priority to three people per week, depending on how well you do in the trials, pon! Candies can be earned by doing various tasks and good deeds!
What are these trials you talk about?
- At the end of the week, the Weekly Rankings go up! If nobody has been murdered by the end of the week, the person with the lowest amount of Magical Candies will lose their right to participate. But if someone is murdered, there will be a trial, pon. Try your best to find the culprit, pon!
How do trials work?
- Glad you asked, pon! During the trials, you are given a list of suspects and their alibis. The day before the trial, you will be given an investigation period, where you may use to find any clues to figure out who did it. You are then given two trial days as well as some suspects in order to figure things out! The person we choose to remove depends all on you, and everyone's majority vote. If you do not vote, you will also be eliminated, so please be careful, pon!
What happens if the person we vote for is innocent?
- That's too bad, isn't it? It's not the end of the world, though. You just eliminated an innocent person, pon. The true culprit in this case will be getting bonus candy, pon!
So, what exactly is this game?
- Most of you have already guessed, but this is a murdergame loosely based on the mechanics of Magical Girl Raising Project. No former knowledge of the canon is necessary! We're aiming to have at least 20 characters around February/March if we can garner enough interest. Fandom-based and original characters will applicable; the only ones that will not be are real life characters.
How is the magical candy mechanic going to work?
- All characters will start with 500 candies. On the first week, instead of giving priority to three characters, all items will be on a first come, first serve basis. Any week after that, three players will be PM'd being told that they have priority for the items that are available for sale. They are allowed to buy one item per week and each item has one use only, in order to make things fair. Items in the shop will vary, such as protection from being murdered for one week to a magical sword that can be used to kill another character. While all items and their abilities will be revealed to every player, the person who obtains them will remain a secret. It is also possible that character regains will be in the shop, so keep an eye out!
Magical candies are earned by showing bonus activity as well as participating in trials. For each ten comment thread you turn in, you will get one bonus magical candy. If any character is close to hitting zero candies, they will be warned beforehand, because hitting zero does mean character death.
Another thing that characters can do as they obtain candies is to transfer candies to another player. ICly, it can be done through stealing or giving candies to them either out of the goodwill of their heart or through a trade. In order to steal, the other character must be able to obtain the other character's magical phone.
In order to steal candies, you must inform the mods beforehand, so we can contact the other player in regards to this manner.
How will scheduling work?
- As of right now, it will be on a 1:1 day ratio, with incentives (which includes items, motives, magical candy bonuses and tasks) given on Monday. Murders will happen on Friday as well as the while Trials will occur on Saturdays and Sundays. Weekly Rankings will also go up on Saturdays, right before the beginning of the trial. This game is expected to probably last about 8 weeks minimum, give or take, depending on interest.
Murderers and victims will also be chosen on Monday, prior to the motive, through RNG. All players get one free pass before rerolling.
How will investigations work?
- Once two or more characters manage to find the dead body, investigation will begin. Characters are free to look around A Town for any clues that may possibly be relevant to the case.
How will trials work?
- Like stated above, trials will take place on Saturdays and Sundays. Characters who are on the suspect list will be private messaged beforehand in order to prepare their alibis. There will also be both evidence and alibi top levels for characters to peruse. On Sunday, all votes must be cast and whoever gets the majority vote wins.
Whoever gets the majority vote will then be publicly executed on video, innocent or otherwise. If the character is innocent, it will be mentioned. But the true murderer will not be revealed. Instead, they will be notified on how much bonus candy that they will be getting for escaping scot free.
Can I apply for any Magical Girl Raising Project characters?
- As some of them may play a role in the game's plot, no.
Anyway, this game is still in the works and isn't completed and if there's enough interest and possibly anyone else willing to help mod, I'd highly appreciate any input and ideas to help flesh things out a little more.
If you're interested, feel free to fill out the following form:
Name / Contact:
Availability / Timezones:
Preferred Starting Date: While I am thinking no earlier than late February or March, feel free to let me know what would work best for you.
Characters:
Likelihood:
Questions / Feedback: Please feel free to let me know if there's anything you would like me to clarify or expand on.
Modding?: Feel free to let me know if you would be willing to help out and mod! I'm currently the only mod running this game as of right now and I would appreciate at least one or two more full time mods who can be available during trials. I am also willing to accept part time mods to consult or create graphics.
no subject
Availability / Timezones: After 5pm most weekdays, all day weekends; PST.
Preferred Starting Date: March.
Characters: whips out my list-- At the moment, I'm seriously looking at Nisha Kadam (Borderlands), Naminé (Kingdom Hearts), Elsa (Frozen), or Elizabeth (Bioshock Infinite).
Likelihood: Very high, I think.
Questions / Feedback: Are magical candies the only rewards we'll get for turning in threads? I know other murdergames do regainable items, so I just want to be sure! Also, if a character wants to steal candies from another character, and the victim has almost no candies left, will the player of the victim be able to opt out of the stealing?
Modding?: No thank you!
no subject
And yes, opting out of stealing will be an option if they so choose to in that case scenario!
Edit: If they are the victim of that week, I will also ask if they would like to choose to opt out as well. Of course, stealing candies to zero also counts as a murder and will be announced and put up for trial, which means that we can have 2 culprits per week, depending. I'll most likely refine the stealing rule as one steal per week and I must be notified about it on Sun/Mon, or something of that nature.
no subject
Availability / Timezones: GMT +8. Right now I'm funemployed and have Unlimited Time Works but I may not be by the time the game starts because I do have to find a job soon alsdjfs in which case I will be available on weekday afternoons/evenings and weekends.
Preferred Starting Date: Maybe late February!
Characters: Kay Faraday (Ace Attorney) is my first pick, but I'm considering Sayaka Miki (Puella Magi Madoka Magica) from BEFORE SHE BECOMES A MAGICAL GIRL or Esmé Squalor (A Series of Unfortunate Events)

no subject
Availability / Timezones: MST, depends on scheduling at work but either morning/afternoons or evenings depending on what I get stuck with

I do kind of want to throw a guy into this mess because I think that would be fun, but we'll see.
Likelihood: Pretty high, I think!

HYPENo, though, I'm really excited about this. I think it's an awesome premise and I'm really looking forward to seeing where it goes. As far as questions, I already mentioned I would be available Sunday evenings and sometimes afternoons, but I'm just wondering if being unavailable in the morning would interfere with being able to participate?Modding?: Mmmmmmmmaybe. I would need to be taught things because I've never done it before, but I am not opposed. I would like to be able to participate, but I'm more than happy to help mod if you need the help!
