So you want to do something? How about we design a game, and maybe mock up some screens and possibly even get something working. I have been looking at diy game creation programs recently and thought it may be an interesting diversion, something that a lot of people could pool some ideas on. Sound interesting? Our game can be completely fictional, allowing us to go crazy or we can ground it in reality and actually get a working engine running.
A list of affordable creation software, which could be feasable if this takes off. Some of the programs even allow an online game to be designed. It could be as graphically simple as old school Zelda or as complex as a ps1 title. Ideas, suggestions? 1. The game must have custom character creation. |

I just wanted to update this and mention that I have been trying out a few game design programs. Some of them require moderate knowledge of coding and compiling, which I am a novice at, and a couple are almost as simple as drag and drop. I'll try and get a working basic "room" completed soon. Probably something like I mocked up earlier and what Crush said about a Gauntlet style game.
Anyone up to the task of messing with the heavier code based programs? Soon as we find a suitable program, we can start the design process and split up into design teams like HC82 said. That's a great way to do this. I would like as many people as possible who want to work on this to be a part of the production crew. This isn't something we are going to hammer out in a couple weeks, so think about what you would like to do, we got plenty of time. |
