Battle of the Killers

Battle of the Killers would be a fighting game where you have a selection of famous movie killers to play as, fighting against other famous movie killers.

Plot
The game begins with a scene of Jason appearing to kill Michael Myers. He then walks away, but turns around, to find that his body is gone, and we hear Michael's theme song start to play, as Jason leaves, apparently plotting Michael's death. As he leaves, we see Michael sleeping in a sewer, as Freddy Krueger shows up. He stands over Michael, reaches over him with his claw, and the screen fades to black. We are then greeted with a title card saying "Jason Voorhes vs Michael Myers vs Freddy Krueger 2", all the names in the fonts that their original movie titles were in. You then have the option to select one of the three, and then select an opponent. The player is then put through a tutorial. When turning on the game after the tutorial has been taken, the "sequel" is skipped. After this, the player is free to imagine any plot they desire, for the player has a plot generator.

Gameplay
The game plays rather differently than most other games: it is made to look more like you're a character in a movie than in a game. It has a third person perspective, and it is mainly based around getting a slash through the opponents defense, and eventually breaking their armour/mask, to hit bare skin, which causes major damage. The major difference between this game and others is the "Sequel System"- when an opponent is killed, they can get back up, and regain all of their health. They could stay dead, thus "Closing the Series". Or, they could choose an option called "Vanish"- where the opponent looks away, and when he looks back, the body is gone. This then creates a "Sequel", which is sort of a rematch, except the losing player has the advantage of a sneak attack against the winner. A "Movie" could also end with a "Slaughter", a very violent kill, usually involving some kind of dismemberment, but can also be things such as electrocution, or dropping the opponent from a very high place, such as the top of a skyscraper. In order to do this, the player must first reduce his opponent to very little health, break the armour/mask, and be in a dominant position, and "Stage Slaughters" require you to grab the opponent over to the hazard, then press the "Slaughter Button". The game has a "Shop", where you can use money to buy new things, such as new stages, and new fighters. The best way to make money is to make plenty of sequels (as the sequels double in money bonuses from the first one, and so on) and use Stage Slaughters, as they give the most money.

Plot Generator
This allows players to select one of many variants of stories behind movies or have the game select a random plot. The plot impacts the game, I.E. having Freddy Krueger in a dream would make him more powerful, and weapons can be lost, so the Killer who is handicapped can only punch, kick, strangle, ect. The plot generator would include unlockable variants.

Bosses
When the player meets certain conditions, they can fight a boss- a very large horror movie villain that couldn't be put in the game, as they would either be a game breaker, or it would be impossible. Beating the bosses gets lots of money, and also gets a trailer of that character's most critically acclaimed movie will become viewable.

Jaws (Jaws)
To fight Jaws, you must win 10 movies in a row, and the 10th must be fought in a setting in a sail boat. When the criteria is met, the PC suddenly stumble as the boat shakes. Then, Jaws will pop up and bite the side of the boat, attempting to devour the killer. In order to defeat him, you must knock down the mast, which you must then grab, and then you have to stab it into Jaws' mouth.

King Kong (King Kong)
Here, 10 movies in a row must be won again, with the 10th one taking place on top of a skyscraper. King Kong will then come up, and attempt to crush the player. To beat it, you must slash at the hand King Kong is hanging on to the building with, until it falls.

The Master of all Evil (Battle of the Killers)
To get this, you must unlock everything, then there will be an option to buy a stage called "Dead Space"- a post-apoctolyptic barren wasteland. Winning 10 movies in a row, all here, finishing them with Slaughters (Stage Slaughters are not possible here) and using the weakest character, Santa. Then, Santa will be riding off, when a giant black hand appears out of the sand, and grabs Santa's Sleigh, crushing both it and Santa. Then, it will go to the character select screen and after you select a character, the only opponent you can choose is represented merely by a giant, blood red question mark, with the name simply being "Evil". Then, the only stage you can select is, again, represented by a blood red question mark, with the name of "Land of Death". In order to defeat it, you must dodge all of the minions of darkness he launches at you, and when you get to him, the slashes from his insanely powerful knife. When you beat him, you actually unlock him, unlike other bosses.
