So, this is my first topic, hope you enjoy reading it. (sorry for my bad English).

Wave: The Inquisitors

(reference to Star Wars: Rebels)

oh yeh, spinning swords…

“What if the chickens have some kind of swords to attack and defend?”

Wave’s Layout:

(4 danger zones)

Begin the wave, the Grand Inquisitor (can be UFO, mini-boss, or machine, and so on) appears, covered by the bubble with his sword (indestructible barriers) outside. His sword will repeatedly spin and stop until the player kills him. He will move a straight line on the screen and bounce back when touching the screen’s side. Now, he has his soldiers (all chickens except the machines) help him terminate the player, and each soldier also has their sword.

Soldiers’ Attack: When the Grand Inquisitor appears, the soldiers will appear in turn at the side of the screen. The soldier will attack the player like what the “assassin chicks” do (chasing), and also spin his sword until he reaches the player’s location, then he stops spinning for about 0.5s - 1s (depending on the difficulty), after that he will spin the sword backwards while escaping the screen.

The time the soldier stops spinning his sword is the chance for the player to kill him; the small gap between barriers helps the player kill him more easily. Only when the player kills all 35 soldiers (or they all escape) does The Grand’s bubble blow, but his sword remains; only now can the player kill him (or they can use Beam to kill him first).

Summary:

– Enemy: Type - number:

  • The Grand Inquisitor: UFO, mini-boss, or machines, etc. - 1
  • His Sword: indestructible barriers - 4
  • The Soldiers: all enemies except the Gatling and Laser gun - 35
  • Each Soldier’s Sword: indestructible barriers - 2

– Score:

  • Clean Sweep.
  • Pecking order: 18,000 (kill all 35 soldiers in the order first, and the Grand last)

– Difficulty: begins to appear at 60%.

– Zoom: default zoom.

That’s all. thanks for reading my long post, hope you enjoy it, and have a nice day.

Added in v.155 :medal_sports: Idea

BTW, is “The Inquisitors” a reference many players will understand? If not, we can rename it.

maybe “Staff Spinner”…? I wonder

Considering that this game has many references to Star Wars, it could be interesting to give them the same name.

Hmm but this isn’t a famous character as Darth Vader, i don’t think many people will know about him. (Yeah some players might know about Darth Vader more than anything about Star War, including me :flushed:)

i still prefer to let it be “The Inquisitors” because i want to highlight their special weapons in the film, the spinning swords. My idea is also inspired by them and their swords, and because i couldn’t find a better name for the wave, i decided to keep the name “The Inquisitors” as the reference. It’s like to keep their specialty, and i feel like changing the name would make the wave less interesting.
