Poll: Help us choose a title for our first game!

[GrizzlerBorno]

Is there any art that you are allowed to show? Giving people an idea of the visual style might help them to choose or come up with a title.

I agree with this. If it's a fruity happy looking game (like...castle crashers or that Halloween game form Double fine) Then it's going to have a COMPLETELY different name then a brooding dark fantasy game like Dragon Age.

If it's the former, may I suggest something playful like "A Sword's Story"? If the Sword will have a specific name, you could just name it that?

Drop "Sword". "Fit For a King" sounds nice.

This will probably be stupid, but how about The S Word?

From the list, I'd choose A Sword Fit for a King but shorten it. Fit for a King? Sword for King? Er, Kingsword?

Drop "Sword". "Fit For a King" sounds nice.

Damn, ninja'd.

You can look it up on our website, you can find us via facebook or google without too much troubles. I intend to comply by the forum rules so I won't post any link here though, sorry about that.

SWORD

It's short and to the point*
...

[sub]*actually that might work too[/sub]

 

[binvjoh]

I'd say keep searching. None of these really roll of the tongue.

Well, except Swordcraft I guess.

I vote for this

 

[z0nbie]

I actually really like "Hilt" (another escapist mentioned it), but Swordcraft is still fine though

Question: What do you guys call yourselves?

Oh wow, just realized that I didn't even say the name of the studio... We're called Nine Dots Studio.

The game sounds interesting, as for the name I think Steel Ascension sound best out of these. It shows the gameplay and plot and has a good ring to it.

Heart of the blade

But wouldn't a lot of kids go
"The S Word? They named their game 'Shit'?"

Yeah, it's a risk. XD

i certainly like the idea of the game, however the names you have seem very generic, Steel Ascension seems to be the most intriguing name, but im sure theres a better one. sorry i cant offer a alternative, without knowing more about the game ad that.

 

[robotam]

Just looked you up on google. I really like the enemy designs. Sadly, I'm not sure which title I like best.
Any way, here's a few more suggestions

Blade Builder.
Get it sworded!
Swordcraft:Kickin' Ass and Makin' swords.
Royal Blade.
Nerves of Steel.

I remember you started a thread a month or so ago talking about your indie team. Glad to see your already making a game.
Are you shooting for a humorous game? Why not try "stupid blacksmith I'll make my own sword!"
if it's a serious game, I've got nothing to help you there.
Good luck on the game, seriously, sounds like it'd be fun!
