LEGO Speed Champion the Game (Idea)
This is an idea I had in mind some months back and haven’t done anything with it since. Obviously simple and not big whatsoever, so for the heck of it, I decided to share this idea here.
Crashing, bricks flying everywhere and try to get first place. The main target for this is to have a game relating to LEGO’s own IP themes like Ninjago, City, Friends, Elves and so on (it would have both the girl and boy themes), to promote them more threw a LEGO Game like with LEGO Worlds.
As the game would mainly have LEGO recent IP, there would as well be an old classic LEGO theme, along with the return of Rocket Racer (as the final boss) and Sparky (to help the player), something for the adult fans, fans of the old LEGO Racer games to grab the nostalgia a bit.
The very different gameplay from the norm of nowadays LEGO games, having a little bit of more difficulty (i.e. the boss racers) and showing the old classic stuff; this game would not only get kids playing it, but some older fans as well by having a difficulty choice.
Customization:
The customization would allow the player to make their own Race Car and Avatar; plus the player is able to choose either a minidoll or minifig as their Avatar Racer.
With making of the race car would have three different base to choose from and building on top of it, along with changing the wheels.
Opponents:
There would be up to 43 different racers 7 on each world, one of them being a boss and the final boss being Rocket Racer.
The opponents are as follow:
Speed Champion: 6 of any of the recent speed champion sets in LEGO City
Friends: Stephanie, Emma, Andrea, Olivia, Livi and Mia
Ninjago: Kai, Jay, Cole, Zane, Nya and Dareth.
Elves: Azari, Emily, Farran, Naida, Rosalyn and Tidus.
Unikitty: Puppycorn, Brock, Hawkodile, Dr. Fox, Richard and Master Frown.
Classic space: 6 spacecar in styles of 6 functions from the classic space theme.
Bosses: Lloyd (Ninjago), Mia (Friends), Chip (City), Aira (Elves), Unikitty (Unikitty), Benny (Classic Space) and Rocket Racer (Final Boss)
Besides from Mia from Friends and Chip from City, the other bosses won’t be normal races, you would be going against the boss 1-on-1 after winning the required number of races. After winning the boss race, you are allowed to choose to race the boss alongside the other racers. Note: Benny would have 3 choice of 1 on 1 rematch, race with others while Benny still have the Spaceship or Benny have a normal Spacecar
When going against Rocket Racer, the bosses from the previous worlds would also be racing against Rocket but without their boss ability. (Benny having a normal Race Car instead of his Spaceship)
Gameplay:
As of the title, this is a racing game, there be 6-8 racers trying to get to first place with power ups along the way to help get ahead or slow those opponents behind them. Like the original LEGO Racer, those who are hit by the Power-Up would lose bricks on their vehicle or knocked back, if you lose all the bricks on your vehicle, you would have to run to a pit to get your car back.
Power Up:
X3 Stud Shooter Power-Up fires studs, slowing the driver who are hit by it down, but doesn’t take away any bricks unless getting hit by all 3 of the studs.
Flick Fire Missile Power-Up fires a straight missile, taking out %25 of the opponents bricks that are hit.
Stealth Power-Up makes the car invisible to other racers and prevent tracking missile from hitting the,. It will last for 8 seconds. Symbol: Gray Ninja Advanced use: The player can bump into another racers to steal their power-up.
Harpoon Power-Up will pull the opponent in front of the player back and pull you ahead.
Shield Power-Up protects you for 6 seconds.
Ice Power-Up will slow the driver behind you by slipping on ice, when use the ice will remain there for 20 seconds until someone slips.
Whirlwind power-up creates a stationary whirlwind that causes cars to veer away from it, spinning out of control, and will also take some damage. Once you press the power up button, it will drop on the track in a few seconds. It last for 5 seconds. You won't be able to pick up any power-ups nor use your 2nd power-up while this last.
Purple Stud Power-Up is rare and just give you 10,000 studs.
Story Adventure Race:
The ‘story’ isn’t really gonna be story heavy, it would be pretty basic and simple; but it’d be heavily focus on gameplay and the 7 bosses in the game mod. There would be a easy and hard mod for kids and adults to choose, the easy mod would make it easy to get first place, but the boss would still be a bit hard that the player would likely only loss a race once, though Rocket Racer would be more than once.
In story race is where the Player races their way to the top and challenge Rocket Racer to become the ‘Speed Champion’. When starting a new game, the player will be ask to type a name for their driver than allow to design a driver, and build a car or select a pre-built car and driver before starting.
Players are allow to explore the world anytime they want after unlocking the world. With the exception of City and Friends having 3 tracks and Rocket having 1 single track, there are 5 tracks for each world, 4 are normal races and 1 is the boss race. The player can race on these tracks in any order, except the boss race which required number of races the player need to get in 1st place.
Introduction:
Rocket Racer along with the boss racers are ready to race and he always find a way to get ahead of the person he’s next to or in front of. The introduction highlight the different tracks up to Rocket getting first.
City/Heart Lake:
Depending which figure the player choose, they will start in either Heart Lake (Minidoll) or City (Minifigure), this will not change anything of the two worlds besides for cutscenes of the two worlds. It is not required to finish both Heart Lake nor City races to proceed to the the next world but is required to face against the final boss.
The character Sparky would make a return in this game, just like in LEGO Racer 2, he’ll be assisting and giving tips on playing the game. The characters of the world would invite you to race them twice, than the boss racer challenge you to a 1-on-1 race, their race car would be a bit faster. After beating them, you’ll be able to travel to the next world (Ninjago).
Ninjago:
After beating everyone in City or Heart Lake, you can travel to Ninjago. The boss of this world is Lloyd the Green Ninja, who has a fast car and can repair his race car within 25 seconds without a pit.
Elvendale:
You need to beat Lloyd to travel to Elvendale. The racing boss is Aira, who will blow you back behind her if you are close to her for too long and she cannot be hurt by any rang power-ups.
Cloud Cuckoo Land:
After beating Aira, you’ll be able to travel to Cloud Cuckoo Land. The racing boss of this world is Unikitty, she would have a bit of a speed boost. However in this Mr. Frown would put things in your way preventing first place for either of you.
Classic Space:
Beating Unikitty will allow you to travel into Space. The racing boss of this world is Benny in his SPACESHIP SPACESHIP SPACESHIP, he’ll be getting ahead start and do to the size of his SPACESHIP, it cannot be damage by power-ups and Benny cannot pickup and use power-ups.
Rocket Racer’s Race Trace.
You need to beat all bosses before you can face off against Rocket Racer, While the player be facing against him and the previous bosses (but as normal drivers instead as bosses). Rocket Racer would be having higher chance to get a rocket boost power-up and would use it the chance he get to remain in first place. After Rocket Racer is defeated, he will happily hand over the trophy, and you’ll be title as the Speed Champion.
Bonus Games:
Foot Race: No cars, no power-ups, it’s player and others running on the shortest track (or open world) to see who’s the fastest on their two feet.
Taxi: Carrying passengers one by one to their destination and get all the needed number of passenger before the time runs out, but make sure you don’t get hit by other vehicles, or you’ll lose the passenger.
Find and pick up: A character from a world would want the player to collect a certain amount of item for them before the timer runs out. If player get hit by any vehicles along the way, they’ll lose the items collected.
Pursuit: Chase down a thief or stop a dangerous creature. In the open world or on the race trace, ram your car at them until their car destroy or the creature stops running.
Multiplayer
Speed Champion would be having Online Multiplayer of 7 players racing against each other, with those in first place showing off their costume race car and figure, or their favorite character in their favorite race car.
Because with the game letting you build your own race car, obviously you would want to show it off, especially when you get first place, that this alone could get many people playing Multiplayer just to show off their race car… especially when they’re in first.
Major Note: Red Bricks cannot be used and bashing damage does not work in online Multiplayer. Vehicle getting destroy would be disable by default and can be turn on by host.
