I love your idea, I remember how excited I was in the 90s when I saw screenshots for the N64 eva game which is resembles... but my first thought is; what happens when a drunk gets inside and starts barfing? Real people are gross and unprediable, and this is why we can't have nice things like enclosed Eva seated arcade games.
I think the easiest way to handle something like this is doing it in VR. A great example of a game that did something similar to this, but on a smaller scope is the original Steel Battalion. It had this really big clunky controller, and it was awesome! Only problem, specially made game controllers are pricey, and usually only work with one specific game. It’s trapped on the original Xbox because of that, despite it being a game I’d kill to play. Also since it’s unique if it breaks down it’s a pain to swap parts out of it when they inevitably fail. VR lets you get that feel, without having to worry about any of the downsides. With the only real downside of VR being you can’t feel the thing you’re sitting inside. I’d kill a man to have a game like steel battalion but in VR, and I think for your concept it would also work great.
I wasn't actually planning on makin a real arcade machine, it was just a hypothetical. Though if I were to release the game, when you launch, you're in chuck e cheese and you'd navigate yourself in the cabinet, then put on the headset within the game.
Recently I played the new Mobile Suit Gundam VR game. I loved the controls of it, since it used two sort of "controllers" for each attack/action, and you could combo them for special stuff. I think this would work for this game, because if the actual setup would resemble the entry plug system, then it'd make sense to have the controllers be the actual ones in the cockpit, and it would work a similar way. There would also probably be buttons and maybe sticks on each controller for special actions and moving around.
Take your time on it, do your best, it's all about the dedication to the craft! Guillermo Del Toro proved it through the masterpiece that is Pacific Rim. Each little thing you manage to get right, is a win. All the little wins are a snowball, gathering up to a big, gigantic win. I believe in you! If you abandon it/don't finish it, release it, don't care about anyone's opinion on it, because if you love it, your creation, that is all that matters.
For matarael you could keep it the same as anime where they are in the shaft and P2 has to button mash to keep P1 covered from acid and then a little QTE to move out of way and then P1 has to shoot the eye/eyes of it to damage and if failed you just repeat until either P2 runs out of health or they complete it
Whatever the story is, I don’t really care as long as the gameplay is fun _and_ accurately exemplifies the intended narrative. Portraying mental and emotional hardships, international pressures, and natural or environmental concerns through the lens of a giant robot or a giant monster is still a novelty even after 70 years of allegorical kaiju melodrama, and Evangelion tackles a broad enough spectrum of ideas, issues, and psycho analyses with dynamic enough visual storytelling that they could really do just about anything and still make it work with a good team and a big budget. As for the gameplay, the number one thing on my list is immersion. Whether this game is PC and console exclusive or VR exclusive or even available in all three mediums, I don’t just want to play as Shinji getting in the robot and fighting angels, I want to feel like I *am* Shinji, I want to feel like *I’m* the one stepping into *my* Eva Unit and confronting the angels myself while I’m faced with my own demons. The Spider-Man and Batman games do a fantastic job of putting you into the mindset of the characters and letting you learn their skills and absorb them into yourself in a way authentic to the intended experience, and that’s something I’d hope to capture. The perspective could preferably by third person for simplicity, but I’m more interested in the style of the Japanese VR experience, maybe with a little more visibility in 3D space; say, making you and your cockpit less opaque. Maybe there could also be a sort of ‘bystander POV’ delegated to a specific “replay” option in between angel confrontations showing what you and the angel did through helicopter and rooftop perspectives. The actual movement and combat, I think, should be similar to some of the better combat and movement games. Think Sifu, think God of War, think Batman, think Doom Eternal, think “how would I move if I was that spry, nimble, rage filled Goliath?” Apply engaging fighting tactics and movement mechanics to a slightly slower, *significantly* heavier and more explosive feeling character. Once you have challenging, fun and engaging manually controlled gameplay that interacts directly with the opponents and the environments, then you can introduce more specialised and mechanically powerful enemies, then you can introduce elements of psychological trials and episodes of mania near the endgame, then you can develop moral dilemmas throughout the story and escalate the conflict into the realm of cosmic horror.
I've only modeled Ritsuko at this point ya know? And I'll prolly remodel her in the future. But I shall try to live up to your expectations. I can maybe reach a point where I make a ton of prototype games which reuse the assets I've modeled. Maybe I can make multiple evangelion games with them.
I'd say good game concept would be something similar to armored core and ace combat type game modes and deployment abilities with co-op and more expanded upon angels varying in difficulty, dependent on past success (for the sake of a shorter comment I won't expand on this difficulty on past success concept). But let's not stop there instead of just focusing on combat lets expand into actual day to day life similar to persona 5 or in general persona games. anyway, that's my idea obviously this does take far more creative liberty's as stated by Hudson in the beginning the better the game the more creative freedom.
Prolly not, it's what you'd expect from an old school arcade game. Which reminds me, I completely forgot arcades would let you put coins in as a Hail Mary.
Ooh you should put people in an actual sensory deprivation tank to simulate being submerged in LCL & having your body’s boundaries dissolve into the cockpit. In fact, forget the game. Just give people a tab of acid, let them crawl into a sensory deprivation tank, maybe pipe in the Eva theme song, & let them hallucinate the game! The human brain is infinitely more powerful than any game console we will likely have the opportunity to create before the world is subsumed in fire & water in the climate apocalypse! So let’s just leverage that fleshy hardware we already have in our skulls! Best game ever.
Ok my idea though not a arcade game. Firstly I would take some liberties with the story and change some of the Angels and I would take inspiration from the Persona games more so 3 at the end of month a wave of angels come down and you have to fight them off. But the rest of the month is spent doing day to day activities because a major part of the game would be sanity for you and your allies which if not managed properly can lead to bad outcomes for them and a worse ending but the correct choices would result in everyone living and human instrumentality is avoided completely.
Would you be someone high in command or Shinji? If you are Shinji I know the issues with the EVA pilots, (Just Asuka) is beyond what Shinji could handle. Alternative outcomes are nice but just add to development and help guarantee a person won't experience chunks of the story. It's why I decided that most of those just deviate the game play or kill you. I don't mind the idea, I'm just wondering what the hell you'd do in that month. Train? Go to school? Talk to friends unrelated to NERV? I guess I did like that aspect of first impression (game). But let me hear your protests.
persona-type eva game would be so awesome, increase relationships or discover nerv secrets, either of those help you with the angel fight at the end of the period. Not sure if id like it more if you'd play as shinji or a custom/new character
can i help with music if you end up working on it more i made an entire evangelion themed album if that helps as a reference th-cam.com/video/5N0ySKKWv_0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Axesteel-Topic
The ps2 game evanglion 2 was a squeal it had more details than the n64 game but it was more of a strategy life simulator I suggest you base some of it off the ps2 game but retain the fighting system while maintaining the social aspect of the ps2 game m.th-cam.com/video/C0zKIYowFhM/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUVZXZhbmdlbGlvbiB2aWRlbyBnYW1l
evangelion control scheme idea, haptic suit so you can feel the Eva unit's pain just like the show 😀
We've had the technology
I love your idea, I remember how excited I was in the 90s when I saw screenshots for the N64 eva game which is resembles... but my first thought is; what happens when a drunk gets inside and starts barfing?

You, clean it up?
But like in Japan there are so many enclosed arcade games, like there is a star wars one I forgot its name but that is fully enclosed
Like it hasn’t stopped anyone
@@HudsonsDiary in the show i tougth abiut that and if you do do you breath in your barf
man, the whole idea it is simply awesome, hope it all sorts up and please do not give up man, you got it
All you may get is a Zombie or a Frankenstein of a game. But I just have to make it and see.

robot alchemic drive is probably my favorite implementation of mech combat in a game and i think an evangelion game in that style would go so hard
I shall check it out. Undubbed.
Wishing u luck in the creation of this laid out masterpiece
Just give me some time. I don't make a video related to it in a month, spam me to do so, and be sure you link this comment with it.

honestly i would love to fight as the eva in VR, someone should make somthing like that
I loved everything about your concept! And the video editing was great, really captured the evangelion feelling ;P best of lucks mate!
Thanks, though I feel I could've done a bit better
For matarael you could keep it the same as anime where they are in the shaft and P2 has to button mash to keep P1 covered from acid and then a little QTE to move out of way and then P1 has to shoot the eye/eyes of it to damage and if failed you just repeat until either P2 runs out of health or they complete it
That just doesn't sound very interesting in terms of gameplay if that's all you do. For it to be a section of the fight wouldn't be a bad idea though.

Im working on my own evangelion inspired game in unity right now.
I would love to see your game! Can you send videos of it in your TH-cam channel?
Show us
Videos or it's something said on a whim by a child that can't do it. I've seen way too many comments like this to know how the story goes
Great video deseerve more subs
thank ya
Rooting for you from afar!!!
Good luck young man
I will do my best.
1:13 That transition is smooth af
Would you believe it happened by accident?
With arcade, there should be jet alone level and also if you destroy all the cores, eva unit 4 doesn't get blown up
You just run though. Misato does all the hard work on that part. Could introduce Jet Alone as a bonus level.
cool vid

Please please please dear GOD let me play as Jet Alone, I’ve missed him so much Jesus Christ
Show me his anatomy
this feels like a rework of the n64 game
You are correct.
Is it going to have an account system like other Japanese arcade games
Prolly not, it's what you'd expect from an old school arcade game. Which reminds me, I completely forgot arcades would let you put coins in as a Hail Mary.

Nice

Did you ever make the vrchat world you mentioned? I’d like to wander around it
I had no experience in it then, I've lost a lotta interest in VR Chat now.
Why not make it something "original" than Evangelion to avoid some copyright stuff?
Cause I wanted to make an Evangelion game
can i help with music if you end up working on it more
i made an entire evangelion themed album if that helps as a reference th-cam.com/video/5N0ySKKWv_0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Axesteel-Topic
Why u lie 14 12
Why u so confusing?
@HudsonsDiary some people say that's my best trait
The ps2 game evanglion 2 was a squeal it had more details than the n64 game but it was more of a strategy life simulator I suggest you base some of it off the ps2 game but retain the fighting system while maintaining the social aspect of the ps2 game
