I've got some questions on what makes the best reading experience for you.
- Should I keep the 1st/3rd person switching?
- Should I limit myself to only Tremulous stuff, or include some of my own brainstorms?
- Would you enjoy if I tried to draw something to give you rough sketches of the items not already in Tremulous?
- Should I keep a glossary of all my original additions if I make any?
- Should I make a sentient alien/plot twist to allow Alex to communicate with the aliens, or leave them dehumanized?
- Should I make any drawings, and if so, do they need to be high quality and artistic, or low quality but representative?
- Should Alex be alone or with other humans? What level of tech can he have? How much of a base should one human be able to make? Ten? Twenty?
- Should Alex have a base, or should he be wandering.
Here's some answers to potential questions.
- It will be potentially very long, but I do not guarantee it will end nor that it will not. It will be at least five chapters.
- The 1st/3rd person switching was intentional. It provides a feel more like playing/watching Tremulous and allows increased action.
- I do plan on putting in generic vehicles. I also plan on taking settings from the standard Tremulous maps.
- Transit is a level greatly inspiring chapters (three?) four and five, which means there will be a subway/train ride.
- Food is not necessary in the story. If I have to ret-con this in, I will.
