A Sudden Change of Heart

All of a sudden I find myself re-thinking my story for Outer Eden as me and another fellow student studying on the same course were discussing each others concepts and as a result of this he suggested that a make my alien species humanoid in order to attach more of an emotional connection. These ideals were influenced through James Cameron's 2009 film Avatar. All of a sudden when he mention this idea I was blown away and decided  to incorporate it into the story.
I did this because in my previous post I discuss how I wanted to approach a psychological path and this would allow me to create a link between two completely different races and how certain individuals from both sides of the spectrum react to one another and how events can affect a mindset. Below is the edited story description.


“Outer Eden is a 3rd person PC production in which places the player in a world five billion years from now...where planet Earth is seist to exist. Subsequently humanity managed survive the burning hunger of the Sun's radiant disease by cultivating Mars. However, there is more than meets the eye with this desperate attempt to salvage humanities footprint in this eternal universe, with a corrupt government known as “The Cratoriun Council” a human constructed government made to be responsible for humanities every decision.

The player finds themselves taking on the role of Zak Knight formally known as Zak Spero an ordinary twenty one year old man unknowingly made to live in the shadows of the father he didn't know. Away from the Cratoriuns evil eye and their resilient super soldiers. 

Before, events drastically turn, humanity has been settled on Mars for around eighteen years when  a mysterious individual known as Sebastian tracks you down and unveils your true identity. Unfortunately, due to high security levels the Cratoriuns discover who you really are, giving no other option but to evacuate the Dome, where other mysterious findings are stumbled upon.

Mars being the promise land wasn't the only advantage as the Cratoriuns discovered a resource  as they called it Plasmus that was obtained from within the surface of Mars. This energy was used to rapidly evolve civilization and it was utilized for the suits worn by Cratoriun Guard making them genetically engineered beings.

Another civilisation, was encounter living on Mars and diplomatic prosperities were undertaken way before humans even established themselves on Mars. These relations involved the self centered Cratoriun Council and another humanoid race that derived on peace and well being known as the “Feusions”. Such negotiations drove the Feusions underground so humans could be the only capable civilization on the surface and if they didn't comply they had threatened to wage war upon them. However, all existence of this pacifistic culture were hidden from all of human society. Human civilization was consolidated  to a huge dome to avoid any interaction with the Feusion's and they were fed lies such as a criminal underworld had been formed in the outer lands of Mars, so knowone would dare to set foot outside.

Due to you escaping human civilization as a result of events of uncertainty. Another potential threat presents its ugly face in the bewildered out lands of Mars. Where you first encounter a race alien to you. The Feusions were walking the planets surface yet again and on the hunt for redemption.

Eventually you as Zak locate an access tunnel carved into a volcano leading to the Feusion chambers underground, unfortunately due to prior events the Feusions emotional sense have evolved giving them a need to access certain feelings that humans had already adapted and they take you prisoner.    

You as Zak Knight must learn to understand the Feusion ways as you discover the truths that lie within humanities civilization on Mars and gain the trust of this ancient cultural race.”


From reading Outer Eden’s newly modified story I believe you can see a depth that wasn't in the previous description.

I will hope to post again next week at some point.
