Storyline/Game progression

So, you already know the gist of the storyline. Before your character was born, the Fire and Ice dimensions were in a raging conflict over nothing; Fire just wanted to fight, and the Ice dimension was closest. As the Sky dimension watched the war go on, the Jungle dimension, filled with a simple folk who were both fierce warriors and did not want to fight, was taken over by the Abyss dimension, using the Fire-Ice war as a distraction to slip in unnoticed. As the last of the Jungle people took refuge in the Sky dimension, far away from their own dimension, the Abyss dimension wasted no time, taking over the Ice then Fire dimensions in quick succession. As the refugees took shelter in the Sky dimension, both the Abyssinian and Sky councils prepared for the inevitable Abyssinian assault. The Abyss Master, a being of pure evil, readied his armies for the final assault on the last dimension to total domination, but the Sky people, very wise, destroyed all the portals to the other dimensions, and the Abyssinians were halted without even being able to fight.

Your character is born after the war, into a simple farming family. You are summoned by the Sky Council because of your rare ability: You are a Jumper, allowing you to Pop between dimensions at will - without a portal. The Sky Council realizes how valuable you are to them; if trained, you would be able to Pop to the Fire dimension, do a few hit-and-run attacks, and Pop back. You would even be able to spearhead full-on assaults to take back the dimensions.



To progress in the game, instead of levels, there are "regions." Regions are small-ish chunks of land in a certain dimension, of which there will be ten per dimension. Ten regions a dimension, five dimensions, that's . . . hang on . . . fifty regions total. Needless to say, I'll be working on those regions for a while . . .

But the thing about regions, is that you gotta keep an eye on them, or they'll be taken back. I'm going to make it so that you have to destroy the portals on each region as well, as the Sky Council ruled that all inter-dimensional portals be destroyed, so as to prevent something like what happened from happening again. So there will be two main goals in the game: Destroy all the portals, and take back all the dimensions. After you've done so, you have to face and kill the Abyss Master - and then you've beaten the game!
