Hello fellow players!

We need your help! A friend and me are currently developing a game, and we're looking for a good title.
It's about creatures that you breed, fight with and evolve.
The setting is a magical one, with fantasy creatures.
(More information can be found here: http://cog.go.to/)

Feel free to suggest any title(s), or vote for one previously mentioned!

Thanks!

go dai - after ?? in japanese meaning "great five" being the name for the five elements earth, water fire, air & spirit...the spirit could be the player...! the other 4 elements the creatures. see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_element#Japanese_elements

i like go dai, thats pretty cool and could even be implemented into the games design somehow if the developers like it . Whats the name of the fantasy world the game is placed in? Also, what are the names of some of the creatures you breed, is there a name for their species? Those are all good places to start in my opinion

Yeah, the reference to the five elements is indeed quite nice. However, I wonder if a title closer to the game (so that people get an idea by looking at the title) would be a good idea.
BTW, the name of the world and species are arbitrary as well, so you can just call them as you want actually

Hmm ...the link works for me. I know it was down for a couple of minutes yesterday but that would be extreme coincidence.

How about adding a subtitle?
go dai - dawn of a new age
go dai - creatures at large
go dai - battle for a posthuman earth

but you're right...go dai is pretty abstract, even if one knows it's translation;)

I think it may be more interesting to call the in-creatures "godais" or "godays" than using it for the game title. The reference is quite nice.
