I want to have another highscore game on my site, you all want another cool game to play and make.
The solution? A collaboration!
I feel that not a lot of games are being announced on the site anymore, and Im pretty sure it falls short of these activities that we all have to do:
work, school, girlfriend, minecraft.
So in order to make a cool game, may I propose to collaborate graphics, ideas, small storyline, a litte programming, and some music and sound effects.
Really, if a few people contribute their strong suits, this would work and be worthwhile. The game would show a splash at the beginning with the 64 digits logo. It can show that 64digits can do better than YYG. >:( (
they are in the top 100 game studios…)
Anyway, feel free to post some ideas, or
criticism resources to make a small but cool game. Maybe ill throw in achievements…. why not.
EDIT: And I'm not suggesting a completly similar graphics set either. If the gameplay and ideas are good, the graphics and sounds may not be as continuous but still good.
By reading this blog, you agree to comment without containing spam below ;)People interested:
JID - programming
rarelyMush - graphics (yay!)
Moikle - style?
SMP - level design/art
Avatrol - music/sfx
Kamira - Story (maybe)
Cyrus - Observer + ideas / setting
Me - programming (menu and GUI)
Game facts:It will be in 640x480 resolution. Just so we can keep it simple (unless you want 800x600…)
It is a platform RPG, with slashing and stuff. Some weapons, some collectables/items to use, statistics and stuff.
Will have achievements and highscores, so will have a method of calculating that. (maybe total enemies killed?)
More will be added.
Once it gets started, we need to:1. Decide on the details:
>>Style, type, and gameplay for the game should be established. Please post your ideas so we can combine things together to make something from it! It will be posted above when decided.
2. Gather resources:
>>put together collections of graphics to use for characters, backgrounds, buttons, etc.
>>get basic gameplay programming engine coded
>>get sounds and music together, or at least establish a theme of the sounds to use
>> have a basic storyline in place to follow along the game
3. Later on as it is built and put together we can discuss what else needs to be changed, added, etc. More resource collecting if necessary. Use GM8's export resources option. I have GM8.0 and 8.1…. Dont know how that will work out…

Sounds good :)
Although I'm not the bast at anything really, I can contribute ideas?Yes of course. The more people that help the better. The goal is to make a game easily and quickly, but still make a good game that looks good. Any good ideas for a game would be helpful.
Also, the game will probably be top-down or platform. Possibly a short RPG? Just not another OMGWTFBBQchicken kthnx :POne person working on a project takes a lot of time, so a collab would make a nice addition to the 64d database.We should do a violent Platform Beat-em-up RPG that features the player killing zombies, werewolves, vampires, and all kinds of neat shizz, and you will be able to do finishing moves god of war style. :D
I'll help with the programmingrarely.@ JID:

A simple interface of items, a few weapons, nice backgrounds and menu. Could work.@KooKoo: Well I was looking for ideas of what people would want to do, and nothing too diffcult. After that we could decide on more specific themes and gameplay.I'm in.
Let's start now!Mush, are you doing the graphics?
If so, this game will be a win.@Mush any other ideas to contribute?
also what do you want to do?I'm gonna go whip up a basic gameplay engine right now.
@JID: awesome i was just gonna mention that part in the blog.
