Hey everybody
We've been struggling to come up with a good name for the upcoming Starward Rogue expansion, so we need help! For the most part, the expansion is mainly just more of everything. More enemies, more items, more bosses, more mechs etc. In terms of a theme, the main one is that all the new stuff is on the gold floors. We also have three main varieties of new enemy, Phantoms, Deathspheres and Crystalline. The Phantoms are ghostlike, the Deathspheres are kind of like those balls from that film Phantasm, and the Crystalline are elemental style enemies. The new expansion has a ton of new items, especially. So, here is a long list of name ideas we came up with -- yes, even the silly ones -- to start some brainstorming here. We're looking for feedback on any names that stand out , or suggestions for new names. If anybody can help with this, that'd be great. Cheers!

Yeah, help is 1000% appreciated at this point, heh. :)

Interesting. Looking at the list...
I really like "Core Madness" for some reason. Especially if we start seeing apparitions in the game. Plus, googling the name doesn't point to anything problematic (can't say the same about the base game unfortunately).
"Gold Authority" also caught my eye and doesn't clash with anything major on google.
"Golden Ptarth of Misery: Solo Cinth Protocol" :P

Yeah, the phantom enemies are transparent and a few move through walls and stuff, so they're a bit ghostly.

Hah. Might work...might work.
Another angle could be something based on the three new mechs, the Zephyr, the Warhog, and the Paladin. Perhaps... the magnificent....trio......doh! Naming is tough! :)
-
Bunch of probably mostly silly names:
Enter the Smelter
Goldrush
Dead and Gold
Dreadzone
Suntrap
Deadfall
Goldgrave
Goldrun
OK, so these didn't turn out that silly after all.
-
If you want something based around a trio, what about Triarii?

I'm really not sure. I find that I like some names, but then go off them after a few days. Triarii doesn't really grab me at the moment, but maybe it will in a few days. I'm just hoping we can throw out enough names that one will eventually stick! :)

How about a trappy approach?
The Serpent's Trap

A Serpent Snare

Or something with Hydra in it

That really could work, in my opinion.
-
And for the just-plain-text ones, it could even be AUgmented.

Yeah, I was a little concerned that the word Augmented might not look interesting enough, but AUgmented has a bit more punch. Seems more interesting. I like it -- for the moment at least! :)
-
+1 for AUgmented.
-
Augmented looks good. I've slightly gone off the AUgmented -- just because the chemical symbol for gold is Au rather than AU, so that's just niggling me, heh. Although AUgmented probably does look more interesting. :-\

What about AuGMENTED then :D

That's actually pretty darn clever. AUgmented was bothering me, too.

Hah! Good thinking, yeah. AuGMENTED actually looks pretty good written down, too. That solves that niggle then! :)

Time to run that past the others working on the expansion via email, Pepisolo?

Yay I was helpful! Where do I sign for my reward :D

+1 for AUgmented.
Agreed. Although, yeah, AuGMENTED looks better.
Best part is, considering my skill level, it translates quite nicely into the far more accurate ARGH-MENTED.
-
I'm liking AuGMENTED too.
-

This crossed my mind as well, in a happy sort of way. :)
-

Done! :)
-
Thanks. :) Sounds like Captain Jack is already on board, so that's a borderline majority of folks already.
-
I definitely dig AuGMENTED as well. Clever one!

No complaints here.
Also I question why the forum is only just now showing this to me as a topic with recent posts.
Let's just blame Windows.

But...what if we'd rather blame you? That's practically a meme around here, isn't it? :P ;)
