New Gamemode idea: King of the Hill
Now KoTH is a popular minigame, but I have some twists that could make it viable for the Hive(if they even consider this)
- The goal is NOT to be the last person standing on the “hill”, but instead you are trying to get the crown of the hill the quickest
Queuing: minimum 8 players, max 16 players
When the game starts: 2 players are picked as “kings”. Their goal at this point in time is to vote on challenges and traps that can be used to stop the other players trying to go up the hill. During this point, players that are not kings are just waiting for the game to start. The kings select 5 challenges each, both not being able to select the same challenges as the other(I hope this makes sense so far)
Start of the game: when the game starts, the “kings” will be teleported to a box close to the hill, being able o watch everybody. They can initiate certain challenges(like a drip stone trap or lava trap), but mostly the rest of the challenges out of their control, starting when the player gets to it. The other players will start trekking the monument, trying to complete the challenges along the way.
Middle of the game: during this time, players can obtain power-ups, giving abilities that can help them. Here is a few ideas btw:
-knocker/bow: gives player a punch 1 bow and 1 arrow, and they can shoot a player. If they make it, that player can fall and sense fall damage is on, they can take damage(and there is no regeneration) this can be annoying too as a way to stop their progress
-switcher: this allows the player to switch checkpoints(basically the start of the challenges are checkpoints). This can actually have a possibility of hurting your progress in the game.
-leaper: This grants the user a leap(like The Bridge kit) this allows them to jump far vertical or horizontal. This allows the player to skip challenges and go up the hill faster. This is a one time use after using the leap(what I mean is that there is only one leap. You can still get this power-up again after
-shield: This grants the player a temporary invincibility to any power-up that can affect your position or health and against challenges that does not have a fall pit(which respawns you and you lose the shield even if 5 seconds haven’t passed.
-absorption:this grants 5 hearts of absorption. This means that it will be less likely you can die to fall damage. Also upon falling into a fall pit, you will the absorption
This is just my ideas, so if you have any cool ideas, please reply to this forum, with the name of the power-up
Now, once someone goes to the crown and gets it, there will be only 3 spots left to get the crown at the top of the hill. After those spots are filled, the rest of the players(accept the original kings) are eliminated, and move on to the final round(yes, there is another round)
FINAL ROUND(I hope this was dramatic): In the final round, all 4 winners of the previous round will try to go up the final hill. The original kings will be joined by the rest of the eliminated players. However, these
Eliminated players will have a power 1 bow and 64 arrows, and they can bow down the other players. Hitting players grants xp and killing a player grants more xp. There is less challenges now, with 7 of the 10 challenges from the first round will be the challenges for the 2nd round. The game ends once the first person to reach the crown touches it.
Podium: After the game ends, the players still online can be apart of the 3 podiums which are:
Most power-ups used
The fastest time to reach the hill(the 2 rounds combined)
Least deaths
Xp: here is the way to gain xp:
Finish a challenge 3xp
Get a power up 2xp
Get on top of the hill(1st round) 10xp
Be first bonus: 7xp
Top 3 bonus: 5xp
Top 5 bonus 3xp
6th place-rest of players 2xp
Hit a player after be eliminated(2nd round) 1xp
Kill a player(2nd round as eliminated player) 5xp
Win game(as a player) 15xp
Kill a player(as a “king”): 5xp
You need level 40 to make this game doe out
Costume ideas:
A dirt skin with a yellow band
A player with a crown plus a black and yellow vest
When max level: a yeti with a crown and red belt
