Here.

Put your ideas and pictures and anything else here :D

For clarification:
This thread was created for DragonR so he could post his game ideas in a seperate thread and not spam the Game.Dev help thread sticky at the top of the forum.
It was created, not because DragonR is a genius (or maybe he is - to be confirmed :P ) but because he was a junior member at the time of this thread creation and thus could not start a new topic.

Thank you for your patience :D

LOL tnx

OK the game is 3D
Its like a gta game mmorpg/rpg

It consists of a whole planet with is devided into sections sothat we can save alot of loading time The players have a Oblivion style leveling up system Later other planets will be added and a apocalips event where your clan and people have got to work in team in space to save humanity the game will also be taking place in the futer The only enhabitents on the planet are NPC's all that have a reason for being in the game like Oblivion

You also have to pick your element and origen for when you start your account as for the hosting we will use a Mega MIX-server

OK lets sum up Oblivion GTA Futer Mmo/rpg = Great game Before we start we have to pick a engen and Game Maker aint gonna cut it

Hmm, so a bit like Tabula Rasa? Perhaps a bit of Hellgate:London?

Have you determined how you would create this as a single-player game as well?

I will echo what dislekcia says, almost his mantra :D - you don't have to create the next Oblivion or Half-life to be successful.
Look at PopCap games - they are making an utter fortune from casual games..

What other ideas do you have, DragonR?

Level generation is quite interesting to play around with, and would fit well into his ideas (for a single player part)

When reading this, I think you could easily in 2D put together the basic ideas, such as stats and a battle system, skills, etc. as well as putting together prototypes that depict the apocalypse event.

What exactly happens in this team based event exactly?

OK were do I get a bit of info on PoPCaP ?
ps. I never played Half-Life 2 but did play the first 1

Played a bit the Oblivion game :D

I had this idea since 2004 and it was further developed by this retro game were you can fly through space and trade or be a pirate to become ELITE < Thats the name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I work in 2D :) but after this game.dev comp I could help out with some examples.

Not off-topic, just reminding you that everyone has pie in the sky ideas. I've been designing MMOs for over 12 years now.

Just understand the difference between wishful thinking, and realistic design.

Please stop pretending to be dumb. I don't care how young you are or how new you might be, put a little thought into it... I still can't decide if you're really trolling or not. How you behave over the next few days is going to matter a lot.

Sorry, DragonR, but unless you can think of something awesome - you will have to contend with the likes of Freelancer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freelancer_%28computer_game%29), Elite (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elite_(computer_game))(yes, that is a real game - best one ever of the genre) and Space Rangers 2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Rangers_2)

All of the games have the following in common; you are a pilot that flies through space, you can jump to different systems and are free to pick a path of a pirate, trader or mercenary.



OK were do I get a bit of info on PoPCaP ?


Um, their website: http://www.popcap.com/

One last thing, we are here to help but I would far rather see you create the games yourself than the rest of us saying 'Here is your idea, I made a game from it'
If you don't know where to start, start simply -

Create a mini game in Game Maker that shows how to fight or move around the world... prototyping :D

Ya thats ok I am busy with GameMaker yet my own pc froze over thus I will have to wait till Junefor my new pc I'll see what my moms can do though


I'll keep you people posted on the Prototype version of EDEN <Is the name taken?

K bye

Ignore... my bad

^^ And is there a reason why you posted this in a thread called 'DragonR's game ideas' ?

Surely you have enough posts behind your name to start your own thread, Demoman?

That being said, your game sounds interesting...
For an idea, take a look at Katakijin Demo (http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=4502) (It was on the NAG DVD as well)

And if you'd read closely, you might've realised that Kensei opened the thread on behalf of DragonR, who was then invited to post his ideas.

I know, who bothers to read, right? Lol. :/

i fail to see where it specifies it... the title is "DragonR's game ideas" and the post says "post you **** here"

So then i reckon, ok he wants input from other people, compile some different ideas and create the best game ever.

But now that you cleared that up for me, i apologize for posting in your thread DragonR

Twas partly my fault - I forget that not everyone reads EVERY topic before posting a reply in an area and my explanation was not very clear.

Demoman, you are not the only one - look for a topic around Valentine's Day-> I flew off at a tangent at one of the forum members, probably infinitely_blue, for something. After I posted, I realized that he created the thread in response to another thread and he was making a joke :(

Right, back on topic...

I don't think there is a game called Eden.
There is a game development house called Eden Games (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eden_Games)

And of course, there is the fun, cyberpunk style game Project Eden (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Eden)

Erm... Can we not discourage people's participation please?

DemoMan, let the ideas fly :)

Its like a gta game mmorpg/rpg

I highly advise against making a MMORPG, I myself made not one but two MMORPG's but then couldn't find any free servers to host it on.
