An idea I've had for quite some time...

You may have heard of this before, but this idea was mainly intended to be in video game form, showing the setting and surroundings of the character I am named after...
__________________________________________________
Story
A lone galaxy sits within a distant corner of the universe, undiscovered by planet earth. This sector has many solar systems with numerous planets populated by humans and humanoids of every sort, isolating themselves from the rest of the universe, unbeknownst to all as they strive to live in peace. However, they will soon be known throughout the universe...
In the blink of an eye, this lone wolf galaxy is intruded by a massive group of unknown invaders from outside. Planets are conquered before its inhabitants can react. Others are utterly destroyed beneath the feet of these relentless invaders, as they know no mercy...
They split up into different armies and seize control of different systems in every direction. When they come across a planet similiar to earth moreso than any other, an unknown incident occurs, and their shadow of death passes over that world.
14 years have passed since then, and the invasion has returned to the planet. As they destroy the capital city, a young man who calls himself Fokoh Nxakhemo survives by hiding in the underground shelter of a scientist friend and his team.
It is there that he learns that these attackers are known as part of the dreaded Kaguron Empire, taking control of everything in sight for decades, and have already destroyed and/or conquered at least seven other galaxies. Fokoh somehow remembers this empire from the past, but is unable to recall exactly how he knows them.
Despite being outnumbered a thousand to one, Nxakhemo wishes to fight back against the evil. It is then that his scientist shows him a curious item found during the excavation of the remains of an ancient civilization elsewhere on the planet...
He is brought to a mysterious entity of light energy radiating from within a special containment capsule in the underground laboratory. It was difficult to be contained by the science team, and suggested to be a dangerous unknown element.
When Fokoh reached out to touch this entity, however, it had responded in a way it never had before. The light glowed brightly, lighting up the entire lab before delving into Fokoh, dissapearing into him.
He passed out soon after this. The science team tried to figure out what had happened to him in his three-day coma. The light energy in his body could not be detected by their instruments, but somehow his senses were heightened, he had inconceivable reflexes and speed. This gave the team leader a sense of hope.
When Fokoh awakened, he was told what had happened, and how he had changed. Just then, he was introduced to something they had built for him to stand a chance against the Kaguron Empire. It was a suit of metallic armor fit just for him. Throughout their studies, they were able to make this suit coincide with the power he had just obtained, letting him operate its features just by thinking it through a unique mind-link.
Donning the new power suit, he was now known as Cysma, Warrior of Light. With its ability to allow him to run at mach speeds, reinforce his reflexes and vision, and operate a plasma cannon on the left hand, Cysma went with the science team on a mission to eliminate the army invading the planet and gather the rest of the inhabitants to fight back.

Characters
Cysma
Also known as Fokoh Nxakhemo, he now uses a special power suit made to fit the supernatural energy that now flows through him. It allows him to move at amazing speeds and jump incredible heights and fire a plasma cannon on various charge levels among many other abilities currently being worked on by the science team.
Spectra
Her real name being Nira, she has been a close friend of Cysma for years, and had gone on a vacation to a large forest region when her and Cysma's home city had been attacked. When reunited with Cysma and the developing force against the Kaguron, a special stealth suit was made for her, giving her ghost-like abilities that gave her the code name Spectra. With it, she can infiltrate maximum security stations easily without being detected by even the most advanced technology.
AU-79 "Magnum"
Magnum was a war robot built by the Kaguron robotics team leader Dr. Calo as one of two prototypes for the new robot army. It was made to battle entire armies at a time, often alone, so it was equipped with a minigun on its right arm, capable of firing up to 30 bullets per second, a plasma cannon on the left arm more powerful than Cysma's, and could also become a flamethrower, a laser beam on the head that can tear through metals like cobweb, and missile launchers that can pop out of its sides, firing homing rockets. Its armor is made from a heavy metal found only on Kaguron Prime, the Empire's capital planet, and is immune to most conventional weapons. The heavy weight of Magnum's arsenal is compensated by boosters on its feet, allowing it to move and jump without hindrance from its burden.
These are the playable characters, more will be later...

Wow. That's an awseome idea.

Sorry for the drought, Here are more characters...
_________________________________________________
Lobo Adkon
The scientist friend of Fokoh/Cysma, and the leader of the science team that leaded the power suit design. Having descended from a long line of scientific and mechanical geniuses, he hopes to continue the lineage by living up to his forefathers. So far he has done exceptionally well.
Blaze
The game's fourth playable character at a later time. Blaze comes from a planet that has been amidst a civil war for centuries with little natural resources. As a result, the world has obtained many imports from across the galaxy and combined them into their own creations. In search of another energy source for the army he works for, Blaze set of in his special, unique warcraft. His ship poses an ability to transform itself between a space/air fighter, an armored tank, and a submarine to adapt to battle situations. When he meets up with Cysma and the resistance force against the Kaguron empire, Dr. Adkon just may be able to help him improve his vehicle and give it a fourth transformation...
Villians
Nekona
A sneaky spy of Kaguron working for the resistance force undercover. She is assigned to look for an opening from within and strike at it. Using seduction and flattery, Nekona will try to lure Cysma out of battle and dispose of him quietly. Only Spectra seems to suspect her motives...
Shade
An unknown figure that seems to join and part with Kaguron whenever he pleases. No one knows who or what exactly he is, giving him his name. One thing is for sure, however. He possesses amazing psychic abilities that allow him to peer into other's minds, reading their every move, lift and move objects by thought alone, and summon the elements to destroy the opposition.
Dr. Adolk
If there is an equal to Lobo Adkon's genius, it would certainly be the nefarious Dr. Adolk. As the head of the Kaguron army's Weapons and Technology department, he has designed countless machines and weapons of mass destruction that make up the army, and the factories that produce them. He is now most known for creating Magnum's line of robots, and is currently working on production of an immense weapon to destroy Cysma and friends...
SE-34 "BlackHawk"
A modified version of AU-79 created by Dr. Adolk, possessing different ways to use weaponry, making it as deadly a machine as its "brother", Magnum. SE-34 Can also cause mass destruction by its lonesome and seeks to destroy the resistance force, especially the traitor Magnum. Which robot brother is superior?
Kuron
Supreme commander of Kaguron forces. His tall, foreboding figure strikes fear into the bravest of heroes. Kuron uses a mysterious dark magic to destroy his adversaries and rule the galaxies with an iron fist. Nothing, not even his own death, if it is even possible, will stop him from achieving his ultimate goal...
Levireo
The god of darkness that created the universe in the very beginning with Hikaron, the god of light. However, Levireo wanted the universe for himself, and betrayed Hikaron, seeking to destroy him. Darkness won in the war of the gods, but Hikaron, with his final ounce of energy, destroyed Levireo with him. But his spirit still exists. Kuron knows how to revive him, and if he does, no force in the universe would be able to stop the supernatural powers of the returning god of darkness...

Anyone here? This is how the game itself would unfold:
When the the game is turned on and the company logos are displayed, the introduction movie will begin before the title screen. Pressing START will bring up the game file selection screen. Here you can create a new game file or load an old one. You will then be taken to the main menu with the following game modes:
Story- Play through the storyline as Cysma, Spectra, Magnum, and Blaze in their mission to lay the Kaguron empire to rest.
Battle- one or more players and bots can compete in various battle scenarios drawn from the four playing styles of the characters. More content will become available as you progress through Story mode.
Extras- Replay cutscenes you've seen in Story mode, listen to the game's music and voice samples, or check various records from the Story and Battle modes.
Options- Make configurations to the game/controller/data etc.

That is a great idea. Hopefully a company will ask for it to become a game, because it ROCKS. Unfortunatly, that may not happen, but there is hope. There is hope.

Perhaps I should tell of the playing styles for the characters as well...
Cysma
With the reflex enhancing, speed boosting power suit, Cysma can run at incredible speeds. As a result, his missions require him to run across vast areas and use the weaponry he is also equipped with to battle Kaguron forces. Missions may also require him to complete objectives such as destroying certain enemies, retrieving vital items, or escaping a stronghold set to explode. His speed allows him to accomplish feats such as dashing across water or running up walls. He can also jump off walls to reach new heights. He will also obtain upgrades that improve his weapons and armor, and even find light-speed boots.
Spectra
Spectra uses her stealth suit to infiltrate enemy bases unnoticed and undetected. She has different tools at her disposal such as hacking devices, magnet features, the ability to climb up walls and ceilings, Heat and X-ray scanners, and can activate a cloaking device for certain periods of time. She can also find new equipment for new features such as an electric disruptor. Spectra will need all she can get to pass the patrolling guards, creature and robot, and the countless security measures.
Magnum
Au-79 is a robot built to destroy anything that moves. You control Magnum in first-person perspective and use its weapons, the plasma cannon, laser cannon, minigun, flamethrower, and missile launcher to destroy the opposing army and any part of the environment that gets in your way. Extra weapons can also be found such as grenades and mines, homing rockets, hover jets, lock-on targeting, and more.
Blaze
Blaze flies in his special ship that morphs between different fighting modes. His missions either have him move forward "into" the screen, to the side, or free movement around an area. The ship's first form is a space fighter that is very agile and possesses quick-firing lasers and a supply of devastating bombs. Second, a tank form on the ground that fires its cannon and mounted machine guns to take down ground and sky enemies alike. Third, a submarine that allows him to battle under oceans with special lasers and torpedoes. He can also switch between forms mid-mission.

Very nice. Cysma kind of reminds me of what would happen if Sonic and Samus fused together, though.

Eureka! I've finally sketched down the storyline from beginning to end. The game and plot unfolds over 68 levels (16-19 for each of the characters and their playing styles) stretching across 15 chapters. As you progress through the story, you unlock new levels and features for multiplayer. Here is a brief description of the first chapter:
Chapter 01: The Beginning
The opening chapter introduces some of the main characters and gets the plot in motion.
Stage 1-1: Capital Remains
With the special new suit, Cysma must head aboveground and battle the Kaguron army destroying the capital city. This mission will get players accustomed to Cysma's high-speed action style of play.
Boss
At the end of the level, your skills will be tested against a flying war mech. If you are already used to the control, it will be no threat to you.
Stage 1-2: Forest Dash
After driving the enemy out of the city (or what's left of it), Cysma boards Dr. Lobon's carrier to travel across the planet. Not far is a quiet forest where an old friend is vacationing. Cysma drops in to find this friend, just as Kaguron forces attack.
Stage 1-3: R&D Base
Cysma's close friend Nira was saved by him in the forest, and brought to join the resistance team. Using her new stealth suit, she is assigned to infiltrate an enemy military base on the forest's outskirts.
Boss: AU-79 "Magnum"
It turns out the base was made to work on a new line of battle robots. Magnum is one of them, and is awakened to stop the intruder. You must battle AU-79, but its armor is too tough for your weapons. Maybe there's another way?
Stage 1-4: Base Escape
After the battle, Magnum's programming was short-circuited, and no longer attacks Spectra. However, the other machines are after this betrayer, and you, as Magnum, must use his FPS style of play to escape with Spectra alive.
