| So... I recently had an idea... wouldn't it be sick to see a game for Made in Abyss? The feeling I got, is that it would get quite a few fans, even among non-anime fans, due to the way the series handles storytelling. Either having a new character, and having our own adventure (orphanage student, or just a citizen), or playing as Riko, both would be a pretty amazing. I wonder what does our community think about it? ==================================== A quick addition to this post, I thought noting down the ideas wouldn't be bad XD Maybe one day someone will notice it, or I'll send a suggestion to some company... or not ;p Just want to have them noted :x Credits to everyone posting in this thread, who left their ideas :D I'll try to update the list for my own personal need as often as I can XD ==================================== Whenever I think of more stuff to add here, or see cool ideas, will update the list, as a comprehensive list of all ideas for the game, both mine and all the wonderful people who reply here ;p |

| I think it would be a great idea...as long as it's one of those anime games that gets localized and doesn't stay in Japan. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Hmm... right, I haven't thought 'bout that >.< Many games stay there, but I suppose if it would get popular enough, it would be global after some time XD |
|
| I'd play that shit, but they'd probably wanna wait for the manga to get more chapters to work with. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| My first impression upon starting the anime was that this would make for a fantastic open world RPG setting That said making an adapted game out of a manga rather than an original IP is a bit of an iffy proposition |
  |
| The ideas of @ZanathKariashi are nice, one addition I would like to include here... the "Last Dive" would need to be something amazing. Getting to White Whistle, and doing all post-game stuff, and only after maxing absolutely everything possible, would enable a player to go to 6th Layer. Getting to the bottom would be dope, so it would be better difficult to achieve :D On that topic, I read up on the sized of the abyss, if the game would have the same size, without any shortages of space, the so called "exact dimensions" that Abyss has... travelling down alone would take a loooooot of time XD Regular quests could be several hours long after getting to Purple/Black whistle, not to mention White. Last Dive could become a few days worth of gameplay adventure... So, to sum it up... I need it in my life XD |
|
| Nice additions :D I have a feeling I will have to read the manga after all, as watching anime takes too much time now >.< Maybe that will get me more ideas ;p |
|
| Holy shit. Yes, please. I'll play the heck outta it. I want it to have a next gen graphics. Daaamn. |

| Quite frankly with all the premise, plot, ever expanding world of this series and the modern technology, why hasn't it been adapted into a game(open world type) yet!!!! |
| @adeelist Probably because nobody raised the idea until now XD But in all seriousness, if ever, after anime fully aires is the earliest I would expect anything. Mangas aren't as "mainstream" to earn their own games easily, meanwhile anime may help here. I want to believe it will happen, but we'll see :) |
|
| If it were ever released, 100/10 would buy it(even in Japanese). |
| We should also include a way to cook hunted wildlifes to give bonus stat. Fishing, Hunting, Farming, Scavenging these could give an ingredient for cook and depend on how you cook it, each food and recipe should give you different stat boost. |
| Because we're stupid that we love to have fun |
| The exact same thing I thought 2 months ago when I started watching this. Just the thought of there being a Made in Abyss exploration JRPG makes me summon a white substance. Little Witch Academia is getting a game out of nowhere so my hopes are high for this too. That being said, I don't want the game yet. It would be criminal to make a game before th manga is over and the world is explored fully. |

| @ShadowMonkey whenever it would come, I would go and buy that XD If waiting would make it better, than all for that ;p |

ShishoEO said: It already exists, it's called Etrian Odyssey Yup, I have been playing EO3 after I started reading/watching this show and it feels similar. There is no penality for coming out from the dungeon(quite the opposite, it's too easy to get out, it's way harder to progress), but the sense of threat and accomplishment for completing a floor is there. If the concept of the abyss was used for an online multiplayer game it would be sick, there are so many possibilities for interesting pve and pvp. The key feature should be not having an easy progression, and not everyone being able to go up to the top ranks. Also stats grinding alone shouldn't allow an easier travel down. |

 Fixes to make the Profile more bearable after "the Modern★Profile★Update★★Rip★Profile★" |
| It just struck my head that the Abyss itself can be a Pokemon region in its own right. |
| @Isangman0 so now we wait for some romhacker, huh? XD I'd play that ;p |
|
| Get Yoko Taro to direct the 4th layer onwards. ;) |
| Check out Hollow Knight, they have really similar atmospheres and both are really dark. Excellent game. |
| @Noanybodyhere I really like the concept of a minecraft map like that, however... if Abyss is at least 20km deep, and minecraft height limit is 255m... that's a bit problematic, with almost 1000 thousand times less space to work with. Teleporting commands, and a thousand of holes to build sounds rather absurd XD |

| Obviously, it'd have to be a 2D platformer survival metroidvania exploration cave story indie game with Riko, Reg, and Nanachi. Your goal is to get as deep as you can into the abyss, starting from the outside, pretty much following Riko's story. Episode one where you run away from the Snapjaw as Riko and meet Reg, is basically the tutorial. From there, your next "quest" is to pretty much rush through layers 1-3 in a time attack to avoid getting captured and taken back. During this time, you will basically master Reg's grappling controls and the part where Reg has to carry Riko through the abyss for fast decension. At the Seeker Camp you would fight Ozen as Reg and pretty much learn his combat capabilities. Eventually you meet Nanachi and go on from there. Along the way, you have to collect relics and resources (food/water) and secure "campsites" to sleep in, as well as fight or escape from monsters. The first tutorial where you run away from Riko might give you some options to throw rocks at it for small damage, but you won't really be able to kill it - the tutorial is just to show you that some enemies should only be ran away from. You basically have to keep Riko alive while continuing far enough to set up your next campsite, which you then have to escort Riko to. Riko is subject to a sleep timer, hunger, and vitality. You can go days without sleep, but you'll become increasingly sleep deprived, which makes Riko's movements sluggish. Additionally, you can only save a checkpoint in the game by getting a good night's sleep while fully healthy, so there is some risk-reward in trying to go on without sleep. Enforcing this sleep schedule will be an in-game clock, similar to Zelda: Breath of the Wild, where 5 minutes is equal to 1 second, or so. As for hunger, I hate hunger mechanics like what you see in Minecraft or Don't Starve, which place a bar that you feel the need to constantly maintain. Hunger in real life doesn't "suddenly" affect you like that anyway. Rather, if you go long enough while being too hungry, you'll wake up the next day weakened and suffer a day of weakness, and death if you go on for even more days like that. If you have fresh food, it will automatically be consumed as needed every time you "rest" at your campsite. Resting includes eating/sleeping. This means you have to keep food in stock, but it's not as much of a constant maintenance as those games. Reg/Nanachi will be susceptible to hunger too, but Reg can last longer while hungry, just his incinerator might be unusable. Vitality is basically your life, but it works differently than just being a health bar. If your vitality is high, you can take bigger hits unscathed or escape less damaged by certain things. If your vitality is low, those same things might end up instakilling you. It's separate from your health in that it essentially scales how much damage you take from anything. Vitality is affected by sleep deprivation, hunger, and anything that damages you. Your normal health bar will regenerate faster or slower depending on your vitality, but your vitality only regenerates after resting while mostly healthy. In situations where Riko or maybe Nanachi are sick/poisoned/recovering, they NEED to have a safe campsite to stay in, and Reg may be required to take them all the way to wherever that is. Then, Reg will probably have to go out and collect things. ----- Finally, the roles of the 3 characters need to be different and unique. A lot of these ideas make it sound like Riko will be a deadweight escort NPC, which would honestly make for a terrible game that doesn't do Made In Abyss any justice. So, all 3 characters have their own abilities or "specialties". Riko: - Can only move like a normal human. - Can identify useful artifacts from useless artifacts. - Can identify good food from bad food, or things that lead to food. - Can identify clean water sources. - Can properly excavate artifacts without ever breaking them. (Reg is clumsy and doesn't know what he's doing.) - Whenever enemies attack, she can see "tells" or "telegraphs" to some degree, via her intuition. Something like the sparkle you see in Momodra: RUTM before enemies attack. - Can use artifacts (like Blaze Reap). - Succeptible to the Curse of the Abyss. - Very weak to fall damage. - Is the only one able to set up safe campsites. Riko and Nanachi can both identify suitable locations. Reg: - Can move freely with his grapple arms. - Has the incinerator. - Can carry Riko around. - Immune to the curse. - Not good with artifacts / can't use them. - All artifacts look like rocks or junk to him. He can choose to collect things he comes across, but Riko will have to identify the stuff later and clean up your inventory space. Since you have a limited inventory space while moving around, it may sometimes be more efficient to travel with Riko and have her excavate areas instead. Especially in situations where you can't just leave Riko at your campsite. - Takes longer to be affected by sleep deprivation, hunger, and has more vitality. - Takes no fall damage. - Very tanky, and immune to certain attacks. - Cannot see telegraphs. You'll get hit more unless you actually learn a lot of enemy movements yourself. Nanachi: - Can jump high. - Can see ripples of the Curse of the Abyss, which also gives her telegraphs of enemy attacks or monster movements. Unlike Riko's intuition, her vision can be "fooled" just like Orby's was in episode 12. - She can perform medical procedures to save Riko. - I don't really know enough about her to say much here. As far as I can tell from the anime so far, she's probably an even more experienced cave raider/diver than Riko, which makes me kinda wonder what Nanachi's place would be in the game. Perhaps she would be a non-combatant and refuse to actually fight with things like Blaze Reap, or perhaps she also doesn't have as much real knowledge about the abyss as Riko does, seeing as Nanachi just stayed in the fourth layer for a long time and Riko has additional surface-dweller knowledge from other cave raiders who resurfaced. She also apparently doesn't have a sense of taste, so she won't be good for finding food. - Something something, she has better hearing and eyesight. How does this translate to game mechanics? I suppose she can hear danger that's coming from certain directions long before they actually get there. - Takes reduced falling damage. And well, that's what I brainstormed out of boredom. All 3 would be tag-teammable where you switch between each character and the others automatically follow, or you have some of them stay in place, etc. In sequences where Reg needs to carry Riko around and move fast, Nanachi would be able to easily follow most of the time. But if you want to play as Reg/Nanachi, Riko won't always be able to follow. In some very long gaps for Reg's grappling, Nanachi can't get past either. I can't really imagine what the platforming/world design would be like for this to be a 2D platformer like Cave Story though. I can just imagine what Reg's combat mechanics would be like, such as aiming his arms with your mouse and clicking to shoot/reel in, perhaps being able to "tie up" bosses or rocket punch them. The goal with the 3 different specialties of Riko/Reg/Nanachi here is to make Riko's gameplay as interesting as possible - if you want to, you can go full offensive as her by using weapon artifacts, even though she's the most succeptible to death. Reg would easily already be fun to play with his toolset, him being a tank, and him being the most agile. Nanachi's place in the party is kind of secured by her medical knowledge, and also her overpowering cuteness. I also dunno enough about her to say much. ---- At the end of the day, perhaps I've come up with something like Terraria. What I really want though, is a game with good 16-bit sprite art like Cave Story/Momodora/Megaman 8 lololololo. |

| i would definitely buy made in abyss game with darksouls difficulty... imagine fromsoftware got their hand to adapting this anime/manga into game... |
 |
| Holy crap just when I thought Made in Abyss would be cool with a game version 10/10 would buy that shit |
| I agree it would make for a great soulslike game. More realistically a 2D one, like Salt & Sanctuary. One thing I loved about Dark Souls that has been lost in its sequels and spiritual successors is its spectacular world design, which feels very much similar to MiA's (so much I wouldn't be surprised if the author drew inspiration in some ways). Unfortunately, I just can't see this ever being popular enough for that. Edit: I think I just wrote something tantamount to claiming Made in Abyss is the Dark Souls of anime. I'm sorry. |

Tarextherex said: It has basically the same premise than an Etrian Odyssey game lmao Making a game out of it though would probably be more ambitious than most anime games nowadays like those trashy AOT ones. Plus if the anime isn't ultra popular there are no game tie ins being made especially when games are more expensive to make than ever Etrian Odyssey and Made in Abyss has the same concept but has different execution Little Witch isn't popular but yet it got a game. Made in Abyss Game would be very ambitious indeed (Much more harder to emulate than Attack on Titan) but not impossible. It's would take alot of time dedication and vision but i can see it made into a reality. Made in Abyss MMORPG . A Man can dream ,can't he? |

| I can easily imagine the controls for Reg's grapple arms in a 2D game, thanks to the first few episodes. But I think having an encounter with an Orbed-piercer makes much more sense in a 3D environment, since games can react to your controller input and movement speed to know where you'll be. |

| There's a neat little Android game called Bungee Jump Into Abyss |
| the author said he'd love a dark souls like game in mia verse |
